On the 1st of January 2014 came in force the accommodation tax, the so-called "City Tax“, adopted by the Berlin Senate. The Berlin City Tax is due for payment for bookings made from the 1st of January and affects all stays. The city Tax amounts to 5 % of the room rate (net price) excluding VAT and fees for amenities and services. The tax is collected by us and then transferred to the state budget.
Since April 1, 2024, business travelers have also been affected by this tax.
We are kindly asking you to understand, that it is our duty to levy the tax in order to fulfill the requirements of Senate.
