**schema.org** is the shared vocabulary that Google, Microsoft and others use for [structured data](https://akkrev.com/glossary/structured-data/). It includes types for lodging businesses: `Hotel`, `BedAndBreakfast`, `Motel`, `Resort`, `Hostel`, `VacationRental` and the general `LodgingBusiness`, plus related types such as `HotelRoom` and `Offer`.

## What it can describe

Name, address and phone, star rating, amenities (parking, pets, accessibility, spa), check-in and check-out times, number of rooms, and links to the booking page. Room and offer types can describe bed types, occupancy and prices.

## Why AI cares

An AI agent comparing ten hotels has to extract the same facts from ten different layouts. Markup states them directly, which reduces errors like "free parking" when parking costs £18.

## Its limits

Markup describes; it doesn't take bookings. If the [booking engine](https://akkrev.com/glossary/booking-engine/) behind the "Book now" link blocks agents, good markup just helps the agent understand exactly which hotel it couldn't book.

## Why it matters for AI visibility

Hotel structured data gives AI clear, machine-readable facts about your rooms, location and amenities.
