To calculate your rate, you would multiply the monthly daily rate for your room type times the number of nights you wanted to stay consecutively. Since your stay would be over 29 nights, there will be no accommodation tax.

You can reserve a room for a month starting any day of the week. You do not need to arrive on the first of the month. For example, you can reserve to stay from June 3 to July 1 (check-out July 2) which is a total of 29 nights and still get the monthly daily rate.

To calculate your rate, you would multiply the weekly daily rate for your room type times the number of nights you wanted to stay consecutively. Since the stay is under 29 nights, accommodation tax of 13% will apply.

The 2026 Summer Session is May 4 to August 15 2026 a total of 103 nights. To calculate your rate, you would multiply the sessional daily rate for your room type times 103 nights. Note: If you are on the sessional, your entire balance is due by arrival (May 4,2026) (less the deposit paid).

For those who booked 29 nights or more (Monthly rate), the nights from your Check-In date to the end of that month is due on your Check-In Date. Then subsequent monthly payments are due on the 1st of each month by 5:00 p.m. EST until your Account Balance is zero (paid in full). See Monthly Rate Payment Schedule.
