Create a hotel campaign

Hotel campaigns help you manage your Hotel Ads bids and budgets across multiple campaigns. By targeting different user countries and hotels, you can choose different bid strategies for each campaign and give users detailed information about the hotels you're promoting.

Note: As Google enhances the new user onboarding process, new Google Ads users may experience an updated workflow. The content below pertains to Google Ads users who have already created, and logged into, their Google Ads account.
