The VAT on hotel stays will increase from 9% to 21% in 2026, which directly impacts your margins. With Mobile Host, you can reduce operational costs and keep your hotel profitable without compromising the guest experience.
From January 1, 2026, the reduced VAT rate of 9% for accommodation providers (hotels, B&Bs, short-stay rentals) will be replaced by the standard 21% rate. This change means higher costs for guests, tighter profit margins for hotels, and more pressure on operational budgets.
With Mobile Host’s remote hotel reception, you can cut operating costs and stay profitable despite the VAT increase:
Stronger margins: Run leaner operations so you can absorb rising taxes without passing the full burden to guests.
The VAT increase applies based on the stay date, not the booking date. Even reservations made before January will be taxed at 21% if the stay is in 2026.
