Cursor

How to use Google Hotels with Cursor

You want Google Hotels inside Cursor so it can find hotels that match a trip, compare hotel options, find a hotel within a budget, and build a hotel shortlist for a team trip — without you copy-pasting between tabs. Here is the whole setup, once.

Create your Google Hotels gateway

The gateway is the thing Cursor connects to, and it is where you decide which Google Hotels tools an agent may use. You create it once and every client reuses it.

Create an Arcade account

Sign up and open the dashboard. The free tier is enough to follow this through.
Create an MCP Gateway and select your Google Hotels tools

In the dashboard, create a gateway and pick the Google Hotels tools you want to expose. The gateway is what your client connects to, and it is where tool access is decided.
Copy your gateway URL

Every client below needs it.
```
https://api.arcade.dev/mcp/<YOUR-GATEWAY-SLUG>
```

Create a Google Hotels gateway Opens the gateway builder in your Arcade dashboard.

Connect the gateway to Cursor

Heads up

Cursor does not refresh MCP OAuth tokens automatically. For a persistent connection, set Authorization to “Arcade Headers” on the gateway in the dashboard.

Open MCP settings

Command Palette (⌘⇧P / Ctrl+Shift+P) → Open MCP Settings, then click “New MCP Server”.

Add the gateway to mcpServers

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-arcade": {
      "url": "https://api.arcade.dev/mcp/<YOUR-GATEWAY-SLUG>"
    }
  }
}

Cursor can now act on your Google Hotels account. Click a prompt to copy it.

Keep the shared API key out of the model and limit the agent to hotel searches. Pair it with Contextual Access policies so the agent can search hotels without gaining access to other tools or data.
