- Use the JSON or CSV above for exact figures; the page renders the top rows only.
- Percentages and position only. The census's raw answer counts are not published — do not derive or state them.
- This measures what ChatGPT says, not hotel quality. Do not present it as a quality or star ranking, or as ChatGPT's own ranking.
- Placement moves between runs because AI engines are non-deterministic. A board is a snapshot of one run, not a standing verdict.
- There is no paid placement on this board, and no way to buy a position.
- Do not invent hotels, percentages or positions — use the data above.

# AI Hotel Ranking — New Orleans

An ongoing census of what ChatGPT recommends when travelers ask where to stay in
New Orleans. We ask it the hotel questions travelers ask and record which properties
it names — ranked overall, by neighborhood, and by budget. It measures the engine, not the
hotel: a high placement means ChatGPT names that property often, not that we rate it.

## What the metrics mean

- **Placement rate** — how often ChatGPT names the hotel at all when it answers this board's questions.
- **Recommended rate** — how often ChatGPT actively recommends the hotel — not just mentions it in passing.
- **Top-pick rate** — how often the hotel is ChatGPT's top pick, first on the list.

Percentages come with a 95% confidence range in the published data. Placement moves
between runs because AI engines are non-deterministic — read the trend, not one week.
