 ## Research Areas
 
-### 1. Accommodation (3 price tiers)
-Search for deals on:
-- **Budget**: Hostels, budget hotels (Hostelworld, Booking.com)
-- **Mid-range**: 3-star hotels, well-reviewed Airbnbs
-- **Splurge**: 4-star hotels, boutique stays
+### 1. Accommodation (location-first)
 
-For each, find:
-- Name and approximate location
-- Price per night
-- Key features (breakfast included, pool, location)
-- Rating/reviews
+**Priority: Location > Simplicity > Price**
+
+The user prefers:
+- Hotels in **central/walkable locations** near main attractions — minimize commute
+- **Simple, clean hotels** — doesn't need luxury, most time is spent outside
+- Good value, not necessarily cheapest
+
+**Search strategy (3 approaches in parallel):**
+
+1. **WebSearch — location-targeted queries:**
+   - Search `"hotel near [old town / main square / key area] [city]"` on Booking.com, Google Hotels
+   - Search `"best located budget hotel [city] [month]"` for location-optimized results
+   - Search `"[city] where to stay walking distance attractions"` for neighborhood guidance
+   - Always note which neighborhood/area each hotel is in
+
+2. **WebSearch — review-based discovery:**
+   - Search `"best value hotel [city] [year] reddit"` for authentic recommendations
+   - Search `"[city] hotel recommendation central location tripadvisor"` for crowd-sourced picks
+
+3. **Amadeus Hotel Search API** (if Amadeus credentials configured):
+   ```bash
+   # Get OAuth token (same as flight provider)
+   TOKEN=$(curl -s -X POST "https://api.amadeus.com/v1/security/oauth2/token" \
+     -d "grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=$AMADEUS_CLIENT_ID&client_secret=$AMADEUS_CLIENT_SECRET" \
+     | jq -r '.access_token')
+
+   # Search hotels by city code
+   curl -s "https://api.amadeus.com/v1/reference-data/locations/hotels/by-city?cityCode=BCN&radius=3&radiusUnit=KM" \
+     -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" | jq '.data[:10]'
+
+   # Get prices for specific hotels + dates
+   curl -s "https://api.amadeus.com/v3/shopping/hotel-offers?hotelIds=HLBCN123&checkInDate=2026-05-01&checkOutDate=2026-05-04&adults=2&currency=GBP" \
+     -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"
+   ```
+   - Returns structured data: hotel name, GPS coordinates, rating, price, amenities
+   - Filter by radius from city center (3km = walkable)
+   - Sort by distance, then by price
+   - Free tier: ~2000 requests/month (enough for occasional trip planning)
+   - **Only use if env vars `AMADEUS_CLIENT_ID` and `AMADEUS_CLIENT_SECRET` are set**. If not configured, skip gracefully and rely on WebSearch only.
 
 **Note**: Booking.com and Airbnb have anti-bot protection. Prices found via web search are indicative — actual prices may vary. Always note this caveat.
