At SmarterTravel our reservations are a "pay now reservation". When you are charged at the time of your booking, we charge for taxes and fees. These taxes and fees may include, but aren't limited to:
- Occupancy tax
- County tax
- City tax
- Value Added Tax / Goods and Services Tax
- Services fee
- Tourism tax
- Registration fees
- Transfer fees
- State and local taxes
For resort and deposit fees- these are charged by the hotel upon check-in or check-out. It is important to contact the hotel first prior to booking to have the hotel disclose these costs to you. We apologize as the resort/deposit fees may fluctuate with the hotel due to seasonal rates and/or by hotel management/ownership discretion.
