Radisson says its ChatGPT hotel plugin books about 1.5 times better than organic search
OpenAI· 7 OctOpenAI published a customer story on Radisson Hotel Group. With Accenture Song, Radisson built a ChatGPT plugin in six weeks that helps travellers find, compare and book its hotels. Radisson says early booking conversion was about 1.5 times that of its organic search, between July and August 2026. It also runs sponsored ads in ChatGPT, and says 54 percent of recorded checkout and booking events were attributed to ad views.
- Ask ChatGPT for a hotel, restaurant or service like yours in your town, and note whether you appear. That is your starting point.
- Keep your opening hours, prices and booking link accurate on your own site, because AI assistants draw on what they can read there.
