What does this tool do?
Hotel taxes and resort fees can add a meaningful amount to the advertised nightly rate. This calculator totals the booking and shows the effective cost per night and per room-night.
The Formula
Total = Nightly rate × Nights × Rooms + Taxes + Resort feesFrequently Asked Questions
What is a resort fee?
A mandatory charge for amenities such as Wi-Fi, a pool or a gym, common in some destinations. It is usually charged per room per night and is not always included in the advertised rate.
Should I compare hotels by nightly rate or total?
Compare the total for the same dates, rooms and occupancy, then look at the per-night figure. A low nightly rate with high taxes and fees can be the more expensive stay.
