A bed tax, also known as a hotel or tourist tax, is a fee charged to guests staying in hotels, motels, and other lodging establishments. This tax is typically calculated as a percentage of the room rate and collected by the lodging facility at the time of payment.
Bed tax is 5% of the overnight rental and is collected and remitted to the borough on a quarterly basis.
