The Disneyland Paris tourist tax: everything you need to know

The tourist tax is a local tax. Anyone spending the night in tourist lodging has to pay it, and it’s charged per person, per night.

At Disneyland Paris, it’s based on actual occupancy (the number of people and nights), not a flat rate. The amount depends on the hotel’s category: the higher the star rating, the higher the tax. The hotel collects it and then passes it on to the local authority.

Disney doesn’t decide the amount. It’s set by the local authority, in this case Val d’Europe Agglomération, which groups together the towns where the Disney hotels stand (Chessy, Coupvray, Magny-le-Hongre, Serris, Bailly-Romainvilliers). The rates are reviewed every year.

In the Île-de-France region, the amounts are higher than elsewhere in France. On top of the town’s share come extra surcharges: a Seine-et-Marne department share and an additional regional tax tied to public transportation. That’s why the amounts can come as a surprise compared with the standard national rate.

Only adults (18 and over) pay the tourist tax. Anyone under 18 is exempt. So for a family, you only count the adults.

The law also provides for other exemptions: seasonal workers employed in the town, and people given emergency shelter or temporary rehousing. None of these apply to park guests.

Below is the tax per adult, per night, for each Disney hotel. Kids under 18 aren’t counted. These amounts are current for 2026 and Val d’Europe Agglomération can revise them every year.

Yes, in most cases. If you book a vacation package at a Disney hotel, either directly with Disneyland Paris or through an official reseller, the tax is already part of the price you see. There’s nothing extra to pay at check-in.

If you book a room only (without tickets) and pay the hotel directly, the tax may be billed separately, usually at check-out. Check the details on your booking confirmation.

Picture a family of 2 adults and 2 kids spending 3 nights at the Newport Bay Club (4-star).

Both kids are under 18, so they’re exempt. You only count the two adults:

2 adults x 3 nights x €8.45 = €50.70 for the stay.

If you booked the stay as a Disney package, this amount is already included in the price, so there’s nothing to add at the hotel.

Partner hotels and other lodging near the park charge the tourist tax as well. The amount depends on their rating and the town they’re in. Here too, only adults pay, and under-18s are exempt.

Unlike Disney hotels booked as a package, you usually pay it separately when you arrive. Remember to factor it into your budget if you pick a partner hotel. I break down every expense of a trip in my guide to budgeting your trip.
