# Banyan Tree SPA: Agent-Direct Score D (44.6%) Site: http://banyantree.com Report: https://directindex.org/r/banyantree.com Scanned: 2026-10-18 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Banyan Tree SPA is hard for agents to use. Some AI assistants are turned away by Banyan Tree SPA's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly, through be.synxis.com. ## Direct links - Phone: 050 864 2876 ## What to fix first - Languages: English - WhatsApp: a link on the site - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+10 points) Requests as GPTBot (challenge:access denied), ClaudeBot (challenge:access denied), PerplexityBot (challenge:access denied) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing - **Appointments through an unrecognised third party.** (+9 points) Check that the provider keeps your business as the seller of record. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website - **Structured data is incomplete.** (+7 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **No price list of services found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost?' from marketplaces and directories instead. Add a page that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business ## Fix kit: What to paste Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong. ```html ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # Banyan Tree SPA > organization in Banyan Hotel, Dubai, Dubai hairdressers and beauty salons.
