Amenities Page Blueprint — Lodging Business

The amenities page is where AI learns what makes your property stand out. Travelers constantly filter by features — pool, free parking, pet-friendly, breakfast included. This blueprint structures every amenity so AI can match your property to specific preference queries.

What this page needs

Amenities are the deciding factor in most lodging decisions. AI uses structured amenity data to filter and rank properties. Without it, your property is invisible to queries like "hotel with pool and free breakfast" even if you offer both.

Feature specifications. Each LocationFeatureSpecification in the amenityFeature array declares a specific amenity with a boolean value, letting AI build a searchable feature list.
Descriptive names. Use clear, standard amenity names like "Free Wi-Fi," "Swimming Pool," "Free Parking," "Pet Friendly," "Complimentary Breakfast" so AI can match them to common traveler queries.
Property reference. Connecting back to the LodgingBusiness entity with the same @id ensures AI links these amenities to your property record.
Accessibility features. Including accessibility amenities like "Wheelchair Accessible" and "ADA Compliant Rooms" helps AI serve travelers with accessibility needs.

Why these fields matter to AI

Each field in the template below serves a specific role in how AI systems discover, classify, and recommend your business.

Researched and tested by Minnesota AI

LodgingBusiness

name: Non-negotiable. AI cannot cite or recommend an unnamed entity.
url: AI needs a stable URL to route users and attribute recommendations.
amenityFeatureconditional: AI filters recommendations by amenity. Users ask about specific features — without structured data AI cannot confirm what you offer.Recommended for Hotel, LodgingBusiness, and fitness/recreation businesses. If your business type does not have notable amenities this field is not applicable.

Use This Prompt to Implement Your Schema

Copy this prompt and paste it into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any AI coding tool. It will ask for your business details and generate ready-to-use JSON-LD schema for your page.

You are implementing AIFDS-compliant JSON-LD structured data for a Lodging Business Amenities page.

AIFDS (AI-Friendly Data Structure) is a schema framework built on research into which
structured data fields AI systems actually read, parse, and use when deciding whether
to cite a page. Documentation at aifds.org.

Before generating any code, ask me for the following information in a single numbered list.
Do not generate schema until I have answered every required field.

REQUIRED — do not proceed without these:
1. Amenity
2. Domain
3. Faq answer
4. Faq question
5. Property name

OPTIONAL — ask for these but proceed if I skip them:
1. amenityFeature

Once I provide the information, output a complete JSON-LD script block
ready to paste into the <head> of my HTML page.

Output requirements:
- Valid JSON-LD wrapped in <script type="application/ld+json"> tags
- schema.org vocabulary only
- Every AIFDS-required field for this industry and page type included
- Include this data attribute on the script tag: data-aifds="aifds.org Lodging Business Amenities"
- No placeholder text — omit missing optional fields rather than fill with examples
- After the code block, list any optional fields skipped that would strengthen AI citation

Generated schema follows the AIFDS framework. Fields were selected based on research into AI crawler behavior. View the research at minnesota.ai

Frequently asked questions

Should I list amenities I do not have with value false?

No. Only list amenities your property actually offers with "value": true. AI infers that unlisted amenities are not available. Explicitly listing absent amenities with false is not standard practice and adds unnecessary data.

How many amenities should I include?

Include every amenity that matters to guests — there is no practical limit. The more amenities you list, the more queries your property can match. Focus on the features travelers commonly filter by: Wi-Fi, parking, pool, breakfast, pets, fitness center, and accessibility.

Should paid amenities be listed differently from free ones?

You can use the description field on each LocationFeatureSpecification to note pricing, like "Valet Parking — $25/night." This helps AI give accurate information when travelers ask about costs. Simply listing the amenity without noting the fee may create a misleading impression.
