Independent resort fee research
TheResortFee is a data site about resort fees: what hotels charge, which ones waive them, and what the fee actually adds to a hotel bill at checkout.
Resort fees are the single most common surprise on a hotel bill. The room rate shown on a booking page is rarely the amount you pay. A nightly fee gets added on top, often followed by tax on the fee itself. Most travelers only find out at checkout.
This site publishes the per-hotel numbers in one place: the fee each property charges before tax, the fee after the local lodging tax is applied, when the rate was last verified, and which loyalty programs waive it. The goal is simple. Before you book, you should be able to see the real nightly cost.
Fee figures are compiled from hotel-published fee schedules, booking confirmations, loyalty program terms, and reported stays. Each table row carries the year it applies to, because these numbers move. A property charging $45 in one season can be at $50 the next.
Resort fees change without much notice. This site is a research starting point, not a guarantee. Always confirm the current fee with the property before you book.
TheResortFee is run by an independent developer. It is a small, independently operated site with no corporate parent and no hotel industry backing. Data collection and page updates are handled directly.
Running this site costs money, and the fee research takes time. Some pages carry advertising and some outbound links may be affiliate links, which means this site may earn a commission if you book through them. This never changes the price you pay, and it never changes which hotels are listed or how their fees are reported.
