AI assistants recommend Casa Loureana in 4 of 10 Lisbon hotel answers — but almost never for romantic travel, the property's strongest segment. When AI does recommend you, it routes guests to Booking.com twice as often as to your own site. Three technical fixes, achievable within a week, directly address both problems.
The three moves that matter: Unblock PerplexityBot (day 1) · publish Hotel schema (week 1) · claim the romantic positioning with llms.txt + one content page (month 1).

Executive summary
Casa Loureana appears in 4 of every 10 AI answers about Lisbon hotels — respectable, but the property is nearly invisible on romantic and honeymoon questions, the segment it's best positioned to own.
When AI does recommend Casa Loureana, it cites Booking.com twice as often as casaloureana.com. Travelers are being routed to a commission channel even when you win the answer.
Three readiness gaps — missing Hotel schema, a blocked PerplexityBot and no llms.txt — are directly suppressing visibility. All three are fixable within a day.

Where you win, where you're invisible
Casa Loureana's visibility problem is not general — it is concentrated. On family and last-minute questions you compete head-to-head with the market leaders. On romantic questions, the segment an adults-oriented Alfama boutique should own, you are effectively absent from every platform. This is the single highest-leverage gap in this report.

Why they win: the gap analysis
The Miradori House isn't better known — it's better read. It passes every technical signal you fail, and travel-press roundups cite it seven times more often. Fixes #1, #2 and #5 close exactly this distance.

How AI describes you
“Casa Loureana is a stylish boutique stay in Alfama with rooftop views over the Tagus — a strong pick for design-minded travelers.”
“A well-reviewed boutique option, though some guests note the rooms are on the smaller side.”
“Charming and central; best suited to couples rather than families.”
Who gets the credit — and what it costs you
Winning the answer is only half the battle. Today, even when AI recommends Casa Loureana, nearly half of the links it hands travelers point at commission channels rather than your booking engine.

Methodology
Stay Indexed queries ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity through their official APIs with live web access, using traveler-style questions built for this property's city and segment. AI answers are non-deterministic — treat scores as a reliable pattern, not a guarantee of any single conversation. The readiness audit is a deterministic crawl of public signals (structured data, robots.txt, llms.txt, sitemaps, metadata), applied identically to your site and your competitors'.
