London is planning a new tax for tourists staying in hotels. The proposed charge would apply to overnight visitors and aims to support the city's economy.
City officials hope the revenue will help fund local projects. This would improve services and strengthen London's status as a top travel destination.
The move follows similar policies in other major European cities. These locations have implemented tourist taxes to manage large visitor numbers and generate local income.
