The tourist tax 

The tourist tax is a tax set by the Province of Trento that guests pay when they stay in the province and varies according to the type of establishment where they stay. Many other Italian and foreign destinations also charge tourists their own tourist tax.

In the territory of Trento, Monte Bondone and/or on the Piné Plateau, the amount of the tax ranges from a minimum of €1.00 to a maximum of €3.00 per person per night, up to a maximum of 10 overnight stays. The tax must be paid at the accommodation no later than the last day of the stay. Children under the age of 14 are exempt.

These are the amounts per person per night:

• 5-star hotels: €3.00
• 4-star superior and 4-star hotels: €2.50
• 3-star superior and 3-star hotels: €2.00
• 2-star, 1-star and unclassified facilities: €1.50
• Extra-hotel facilities: €1.50
• Accommodations for tourist use: €1.00
• Campgrounds, agritourisms and hiking refuges: €1.50

The value of the tourist tax for sustainability

The sum collected with this tax finances many services, which make a decisive contribution to improving holidays in the Trento, Monte Bondone and Altopiano di Piné area. But that's not all, thanks to the tourist tax, we are able to invest significant sums in the maintenance and development of the area with

• valorisation projects such as Hike&bike, Panoramio, Big Bench and tourist signage; having correct and punctual signposting allows us to inform tourists about the attitude and behaviour they should adopt in nature and at cultural sites and, in so doing, protect the environment and biodiversity.
• the services of the Trento Guest Card;
• the production of free and sustainable information material for everyone such as the Experience maps of the area;
• support for sustainable events that animate the area such as Biologica, Trento Doc Festival and My Active Summer;
• project management and development activities for the cultural network of the city and the area; 
• strategic and sustainable planning of the future for the Trento, Monte Bondone and Altopiano di Piné area with initiatives such as GSTC certification - Global Sustainable Tourism Council.
