Edinburgh Tourist Tax Could Be £2 Per Room, Per Night

The title of this post is the same as this article on the BBC.

Will it actually make any difference?

• I looked up the price of two nights in a Premier Inn in the City Centre for next week and they want to charge me £263.
• Glasgow was £137 and Stirling £105 for Premier Inns close to the stations.
• Will the tax apply to Airbnb?

I do think, we’re going to see some innovative tourist taxes and rewards.

For instance, all hotels in Geneva must give you a voucher for a day’s free travel on public transport. This applies for everything from a camp-site to a five-star hotel.

Some hotels in Hamburg, do something similar.
