Taxes and fees at San Francisco hotels
At the 10 hotels with both an all-in and a before-tax going rate, taxes and fees, as the booking sites reported them to Google Hotels, added a median of 18% ($34 a night) to the before-tax going rate: from 17% at Hyatt Place San Francisco / Downtown to 18% at The Embassy Hotel. At 1 hotel the before-tax going rate was the same as the all-in one: the sites reported no taxes or fees on top. At 7 hotels no site reported a before-tax price, so their prices are listed prices that may leave out resort or property fees. Our data does not split the gap into taxes and fees.
