What we check

Five questions an AI assistant asks before it recommends a hotel

Each check is graded green, amber or red, explained in plain words and paired with a fix you or your web developer can make.

01

Can AI reach your site?

robots.txt rules for each AI crawler, firewalls that block them, HTTPS, speed, indexing, sitemap and content that loads without JavaScript.

8 checks

02

Does AI understand you're a hotel?

Hotel schema and its key details, page titles, headings, languages, llms.txt and link previews.

7 checks

03

Is there enough to recommend you?

Rooms with capacity and size, amenities, location and distances, house rules, FAQ, contact details and image descriptions.

8 checks

04

Do others vouch for you?

Reviews and ratings, Google Maps, social and booking-platform profiles, signs the site is up to date, company details.

6 checks

05

Can AI send guests to book?

A booking engine one click from the homepage, visible prices or an availability search, direct contact — and booking straight from AI assistants.

Why it matters

Guests ask AI where to stay

More and more travellers start with a question to an assistant: "a quiet family hotel near the beach in Sozopol", "a spa hotel in Bansko with a pool". The assistant reads hotel websites, compares them and names a few. If it can't open your site, can't tell what you offer or can't find where to book, it names someone else.

  • Assistants read your site, not your ads

    ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude quote what they can read on the web. Your own website is the source you control.

  • Small details decide

    Check-in times, distances, room sizes and whether pets are allowed are exactly what guests ask about. If they aren't written down, AI can't answer.

  • Direct bookings are at stake

    When an assistant can link to your booking page, the guest books with you. When it can't, it sends them to a booking platform.

FAQ

Questions hotels ask

How the free AI readiness check works and what to do with the result.

Yes. You don't need an account and you don't have to leave your e-mail to see the full result. If you want the report in your inbox, you can ask for it on the result page.

We open your homepage the way a browser does and again the way ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity crawlers do, read your robots.txt, sitemap and llms.txt, and look at up to seven pages that matter to guests: rooms, booking, contact, location, FAQ, offers and house rules. 33 checks in five areas are graded green, amber or red.

No. It only reads public pages, the same way a visitor would. It doesn't log in, fill in forms or store your pages.

Amber means it partly works or that we saw something worth checking. For example, when your site sits behind a firewall that challenges crawlers, we can't tell from outside whether the real ChatGPT crawler gets through, so we ask you to check the setting instead of guessing.

Start with the red findings: they cost the most. Most fixes are small — a robots.txt rule, a page title, a line about check-in times. Hotel schema, llms.txt and booking from AI assistants take more work; HotPilot websites include them.

After every change to your website, and at least every few months. A result is kept for an hour; after that you can run a fresh check.
