Google Places
The Google Places tool (google_places) searches for information about locations, businesses and facilities. Useful for finding restaurants, hotels, meeting venues and more.
How it works
Describe what you are looking for and, optionally, where, and the tool finds relevant locations with details such as address, opening hours and ratings.
Usage examples
- "Search for restaurants near our office in Amsterdam"
- "Find meeting venues with parking facilities in Utrecht"
- "Which hotels are there near the conference centre in Rotterdam?"
- "Search for catering companies in the region of The Hague"
