About Hostelworld
from our crawl and measurement
Hostelworld describes itself simply: "Online confirmed bookings for backpacker hostels around the world. City guides, sightseeing, entertainment and backpacking information for hostels and backpacker tours around the world." Measured against the twelve signals AI engines rely on, it scores 7.6 out of 10, a strong showing.
Our crawl found structured data on the page (WebSite, WebPage, Organization), an llms.txt file for AI models and a readable heading structure. It is missing a sitemap.
AI crawlers have visited 11 times in our tracking, including Applebot (Siri), OAI-SearchBot (OpenAI) and ClaudeBot (Anthropic).
