Your website's health is 50 out of 100
We read 6 pages of rydges.com on 18 October 2026, the way Google and AI assistants do, and found 17 things to fix. These cost you the most guests; your hotel's page is on your brand's website, so its web team makes the changes:
- 1Google and AI assistants can't tell your website is a hotel's
Without your hotel's details in Google's own format, they can't show your rating, price and address beside your name.
What to do: Ask your brand's web team to add them. It takes about an hour.
- 2Google writes its own line about your hotel
Your pages give Google no summary to show under your name, so it picks any sentence it finds.
What to do: Ask your brand's web team: write two sentences about your hotel for each main page: what it is, where, and why guests love it.
- AI assistants can read your website
Two things to do this week
Each one comes from what we found above, and each wins back guests who book you direct.
- 1Show your own price on Google
Google lists the booking sites' prices for your room but not your website's, so a guest who finds you there can only book through them.
How: Ask your booking engine to connect you to Google's free booking links. Most do it at no cost, and your price then shows beside theirs.
- 2Google and AI assistants can't tell your website is a hotel's
Without your hotel's details in Google's own format, they can't show your rating, price and address beside your name.
How: Ask your brand's web team to add them. It takes about an hour.
With OneHorizyn you see every week whether each one worked, in guests and in rupees.
We've already done 3 of the 6 readings your first look is built from
Everything above came from what anyone can see: Google, Google Hotels, Google Maps, an AI assistant and your own website. Your hotel's own reading fills in the rest and turns each finding into a figure you can act on.
