Re: Extra Hotel Charges

There can be many reasons why a hotel might be able to legally add charges to your credit card. You may have used something from the room's refrigerator and checked out before it could be added to the bill. You could have damaged or stolen some property that wasn't discovered until after you checked out. These are just two examples of potentially legitimate charges.

If you disagree with the charge, dispute it in writing with the credit card company and/or contact the hotel about the matter.
