Understanding Oahu’s 18.71% Hotel Tax and Mandatory Fees

In Honolulu County, hotel room rates and mandatory resort fees are both subject to three stacked taxes: the 11% Hawaii Transient Accommodations Tax (TAT), the 3.00% Oahu County TAT (OTAT), and the 4.712% General Excise Tax pass-through (GET). Always compare the all-in nightly total rather than the headline base rate.
