AI already reveals visitor behavior on hotel websites

THE NEWS: A length‑of‑stay algorithm predicts whether a visitor will extend their trip beyond the dates they originally searched for and recommends targeted offers based on that likelihood.

DETAILS:

Visitors predicted not to extend are offered incentives such as “book three nights, pay for two” or a complimentary extra night with breakfast.

Visitors predicted to extend on their own are steered toward a premium upsell rather than a discount.
