Hotels & hospitality
Guests now ask AI where to stay and it answers with a short list built from OTAs and travel press. If none of them wrote about you, you are not on it.
Our take
In our hotel sweeps the same few properties win every generic question while dozens of comparable hotels never appear, because AI assembles its shortlist from Booking, TripAdvisor and the guides it trusts, not from hotel websites. A property gets in by giving those sources and the models something answer-shaped to quote: one page per guest question, an entity that reads the same everywhere, and mentions on the lists AI already cites for its city.
