A Hotel Search request can be modified to request the name of a specific property in a city/airport location.
Request
In addition to the minimum requirements for a basic Hotel Search, the hotel name can be specified in /HotelSearchModifiers/HotelName.

The requested property name is sent in HotelName.
Response
The Hotel Search response returns all properties within the specified city that meet the request hotel name parameters. The hotel name is located in the Name attribute of the HotelProperty element.
If more than property meets the requested parameters, multiple properties with similar names can be returned. For example, if the chain name 'Radisson' is specified in the request, all properties that include the 'Radisson' value in the property Name are returned.
