What is the meaning / definition of Resort Fee in the hospitality industry?
A fee that is an additional charge to the room rate at resorts. This fee may be a base fee, daily fee or a percentage based on the price of an overall stay and is mandatory to pay. This fee may cover all amenities and services or select amenities whether or not a guest uses them.
