Hotel Tax Calculator for the Top 100 U.S. Cities

Hotel Tax Calculator with Custom Rate Option

Upload a custom CSV to use your own market rates and override the defaults. Calculates state and city lodging taxes, flat nightly fees, tourism and district assessments, and resort fees with an option to mark them taxable.

This Hotel Tax Calculator helps you estimate the true cost of a stay across major U.S. markets. Pick a city from the dropdown, enter your nightly rate, number of nights, and rooms, and the tool breaks out percentage-based lodging taxes, any flat per-night charges, and totals. You also get the effective tax rate and the tax-per-night figure. You can add a resort fee and choose whether it is taxable to mirror how many properties bill in practice.

If you need to run your own numbers, upload a simple CSV with your preferred rates to overwrite the defaults. This is useful for keeping pace with local changes or for property-specific assumptions. Results are estimates and may vary by jurisdiction or district. Always confirm with official city, county, or state sources before finalizing quotes or budgets.

Please double check the rates to make sure we have the most recent tax rates for your target city. The rates used in this calculator are mostly from the years 2024 and 2025. That said, these types of taxes change frequently, so do you own homework.
