England proposes nightly hotel levy for tourists

Ministers in England plan to introduce a nightly tourist levy on hotel and Airbnb stays, giving mayors the authority to decide how the revenue is invested. The proposed tax, first mentioned by Keir Starmer’s government, could generate hundreds of millions of pounds for local transport and public services. Mayors are expected to set the fee as a percentage of accommodation costs to prevent it from becoming overly expensive, while the policy faces opposition from the hospitality industry due to concerns over job losses and increased costs.
