Starting January 1, 2018, Greece introduced accommodation taxes that are required to be paid in cash directly at the lodging facility. The accommodation provider is subject to them, not the travel agency.
According to this law, the accommodation users (tourists) are required to pay taxes for staying overnight. The amount is based on accommodation’s category.
Accommodation taxes are calculated per room / per night.
This tourism tax is not included in the price of the accommodation.
The amount of accommodation taxes in individual categories:
· Apartment and studios: 0,50 € per room / per night
· 1 star hotels: 0,50 € per room / per night
· 2 star hotels: 0,50 € per room / per night
· 3 star hotels: 1,50 € per room / per night
· 4 star hotels: 3,00 € per room / per night
· 5 star hotels: 4,00 € per room / per night
