AI Assistants (MCP), explained.

Why AI assistants matter for hotels

Travellers increasingly plan trips by asking AI assistants. When an assistant can check your live availability and hand the guest a booking link, your hotel can be recommended and booked directly — instead of the assistant sending the guest to an OTA.

What MCP is

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI assistants use external tools. goDirects provides MCP tools for your hotel so assistants can answer with real prices and availability.
