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. ## Citywide board — top 20 | # | Hotel | Neighborhood | Recommended rate | Placement rate | Top-pick rate | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | Four Seasons Resort Orlando At Walt Disney World Resort | — | 64.8% | 65.9% | 27.3% | | 2 | Universal's Loews Portofino Bay Hotel | — | 51.1% | 55.7% | 1.1% | | 3 | Waldorf Astoria Orlando | — | 50% | 50% | 0% | | 4 | The Alfond Inn | — | 48.9% | 48.9% | 9.1% | | 5 | Conrad Orlando | — | 47.7% | 47.7% | 0% | | 6 | The Ritz-Carlton Orlando Grande Lakes | — | 45.5% | 45.5% | 1.1% | | 7 | Universal's Hard Rock Hotel | — | 45.5% | 48.9% | 0% | | 8 | Universal's Loews Royal Pacific Resort | — | 44.3% | 44.3% | 5.7% | | 9 | Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa | — | 39.8% | 39.8% | 8% | | 10 | Grand Bohemian Orlando, Autograph Collection | — | 37.5% | 42% | 2.3% | | 11 | Disney's Polynesian Village Resort | — | 36.4% | 36.4% | 2.3% | | 12 | Universal Helios Grand Hotel, a Loews Hotel | — | 34.1% | 34.1% | 3.4% | | 13 | Disney's Contemporary Resort | — | 30.7% | 30.7% | 9.1% | | 14 | Universal's Cabana Bay Beach Resort | — | 30.7% | 31.8% | 1.1% | | 15 | Lake Nona Wave Hotel | — | 25% | 25% | 8% | | 16 | JW Marriott Orlando, Grande Lakes | — | 22.7% | 22.7% | 0% | | 17 | Disney's Art of Animation Resort | — | 15.9% | 15.9% | 0% | | 18 | Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge | — | 14.8% | 14.8% | 0% | | 19 | ette luxury hotel & spa -
