Places to stay: be recommended when travellers ask where to sleep
Planning a trip with an AI assistant is becoming common: “a quiet hotel with parking near the centre”, “a gîte for 8 with a pool”. The assistant puts together a short list. Recoia measures whether you appear for these requests and tells you what to publish to be on it.
For: hotels, gîtes, bed and breakfasts, campsites, holiday rentals. Updated .
What your customers ask AI assistants
Examples of real-world questions, like the ones Recoia asks ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews several times to measure who gets recommended. Recoia asks them in French, the language of the market it measures.
- “A quiet hotel with parking in the centre of Paris?”
- “A charming B&B near Paris for a weekend”
- “A gîte for 8 people with a pool around Paris”
- “Where can I stay in Paris with a dog?”
- “A hotel near the station in Paris for a business trip”
Where AI assistants get their information
| Source | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Booking platforms and review sites | They provide the amenities, ratings and prices that answers reuse. |
| Tourist offices and travel media | Their selections serve as the reference for “the best places to stay”. |
| Your website | For precise facts: amenities, access, conditions, base prices. |
The information your website must give
- Amenities (parking, pool, pets welcome, accessibility, EV charging)
- Capacity and the types of rooms or accommodation
- Distance to landmarks (station, centre, sights)
- A “from” price for each season
- Conditions (check-in, cancellation, breakfast)
The pages to create first
- One page per type of stay
“Romantic weekend”, “seminar”, “family holiday”: each page answers one intent.
- A “Getting here and around” page
Distances and landmarks: what travellers ask about most.
- An amenities page written as a list
A clear list is easier to quote than descriptive prose.
Common mistakes
- Amenities that only appear in photos
- No indicative price on your website
- Access information that differs from one platform to another

Frequently asked questions
Does Recoia replace booking platforms?
No. It measures whether assistants recommend you and helps you make your own site easier to cite; booking platforms remain important sources.
What about seasonal accommodation?
Out of season, switch the site to “on demand” measurement in its settings: its questions no longer count towards your plan, and tracking resumes whenever you like.
