Archipelago Hotels Introduces AI-Powered Experience via ChatGPT Plugin
Search, Compare, and Discover Hotels in a Single Conversation
Finding a hotel can now be a more practical and interactive experience. With AI technology, users can communicate their travel needs in everyday language and receive more relevant responses. This experience is enabled through the Archipelago Hotels Plugin on ChatGPT, connecting users with information and property options across the Archipelago Hotels network.
Archipelago Hotels, the largest privately owned hotel management group in Indonesia and Southeast Asia, brings this AI-powered experience to help users find properties that match their travel needs. Users can simply share their destination, travel dates, number of guests, purpose of travel, and stay preferences. The Plugin then helps present relevant property options, hotel information, availability, and details of the selected hotel.
“Travelers are increasingly planning their trips through conversations, not only through traditional search. With the Archipelago Hotels Plugin on ChatGPT, guests can describe exactly what they need, from location and travel dates to budget and facilities, then discover, compare, and choose relevant Archipelago hotels in one seamless conversation. This creates a simpler and more personal way to find the right accommodation, while opening another digital doorway into our portfolio. It is an important step in making Archipelago easier to discover wherever the travel journey begins”, said Chris Legaspi, Chief Commercial Officer Archipelago Hotels.
Start Your Journey with a Single Question
AI technology allows accommodation searches to evolve from simple keyword queries into contextual interactions. The Archipelago Hotels Plugin uses this approach by taking the traveler's unique preferences as the starting point to uncover relevant property choices across the Archipelago network.
To try the experience, travelers can open ChatGPT, select Plugins from the sidebar navigation menu, type Archipelago Hotels into the search bar, and select Try It to begin a conversation. Users can then state their travel needs using simple prompts for both leisure and business trips.
The plugin helps filter options based on key considerations:
Facilities: Find properties based on essential amenities like swimming pools, breakfast, or meeting rooms.
Budget: Tailor accommodation choices to a specified budget range.
Nearby Attractions: Discover properties based on proximity to specific landmarks or destinations.
Date Estimation: Explore stay options based on tentative travel dates.

From Discovery to Selection in One Conversation
Planning a trip often requires more than just finding a single hotel option; travelers need to evaluate locations, amenities, pricing, and room availability. The Archipelago Hotels Plugin consolidates these steps into a single chat window.
To view complete property information, users can click View Details on their preferred hotel to review specific details before finalizing their decision.
The user journey follows four simple stages:
ASK — State Your Needs: Start with a simple question about travel plans, including destination, dates, guest count, purpose, or property preferences.
DISCOVER — Explore Options: The plugin identifies relevant Archipelago properties based on the context provided.
COMPARE — Evaluate Alternatives: Browse multiple hotel options alongside photos, locations, property descriptions, amenities, and real-time availability.
CHOOSE — Select a Property: Click 'View Details" on the chosen property to access comprehensive information and proceed with the booking process.
