The Toxteth is ready for agents.
Some AI assistants are turned away by the website of The Toxteth. It can read what The Toxteth offers. It finds a way to book or order directly, through SevenRooms.

## Direct links
- Book directly: http://www.sevenrooms.com/reservations/toxtethhotel (through sevenrooms acting for the business)
- Menu: https://toxtethhotel.com.au/menu/
- Phone: +61 2 9660 2370

## What to fix first
- **robots.txt blocks GPTBot.** (+1.2 points) These are the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google's AI features. Remove the Disallow lines for them, or add explicit Allow rules. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/robots-txt-for-ai-agents

## Fix kit: What to paste

robots.txt. Add these lines to /robots.txt and delete any Disallow rule that names these crawlers.

```
# Let AI assistants read the site: they send people to you; a marketplace keeps them.
# Remove any Disallow lines for these names elsewhere in this file.

## Already right
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all received a normal response.
- **Structured data present (BarOrPub).** address, phone, opening hours
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read items and prices directly.
- **Booking through sevenrooms on your own domain.** No marketplace commission, and the guest stays yours.
- **SevenRooms works with agents through its partners.** SevenRooms' terms (17 April 2026) bar any robot, spider, scraper or other automated means except bona fide search engines; Google names SevenRooms as an AI Mode booking partner. Read 2026-10-15: https://sevenrooms.com/terms-of-service/. An assistant that is not a partner may not finish the step there; a direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
