“Where should we stay?”
AI already has an answer. Are you in it?
Guests used to scroll booking sites. Now they ask ChatGPT for three good options and book one. MentionedOn checks the AI answers about your town every day and tells you whether your property is on that shortlist, and exactly how to get on it.

Find out what AI says about your business
An AI answer to “where should we stay” recommends a handful of properties, not pages of listings. You're on the shortlist or you don't exist.
Travelers who get a confident answer from AI often book without ever seeing a booking-site results page, or your website.
Model updates reshuffle the recommendations constantly. Today's answer isn't tomorrow's. We watch it for you.
A real measurement, not a testimonial
On the Mendocino coast, the inns’ own websites beat TripAdvisor in AI answers
Across 2,586 citations we recorded in AI answers about inns, B&Bs, hotels and resorts, individual properties’ own sites were the sources the assistants actually read. MacCallum House (256 citations), Nicholson House (232) and the Stanford Inn (229) each out-cited tripadvisor.com (177), and every travel platform we track combined took just 8.5% of lodging citations. The property whose site answers the questions travelers ask is the property AI recommends.

Frequently asked questions
Do travelers really use ChatGPT to choose hotels?+
Yes, trip planning is one of the most common consumer uses of AI assistants, and “where should we stay in ___” is the canonical question. The answers name only a few properties, which makes them more winner-take-all than any booking-site results page.
I have great reviews on Google and TripAdvisor. Doesn't that cover me?+
Not automatically. Reviews are one input among many, and plenty of 4.9-star properties never appear in AI answers while a competitor with a strong presence in local guides gets named every time. MentionedOn measures that gap for your specific property and town, then tells you how to close it.
How does MentionedOn check my hotel's AI visibility?+
Every day we ask ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity the lodging questions travelers ask about your town, unprimed, exactly like a guest would. We record whether you're mentioned, where you rank, how you're described, and who is named instead of you.
What does it cost?+
The Local plan is $99/month for one property, less than one night's room rate, and you can cancel anytime. Groups and management companies use Growth at $399/month for up to 5 properties.
Can I see results before paying anything?+
Yes. Run the free instant scan, no account needed. In about 30 seconds you'll see your AI visibility score and which competitors AI recommends for your town instead of you.
