How to calculate the electricity bill for staying in a hotel?

You don't have to pay the electricity bill to stay in the hotel. Because by convention, in most cases, utilities and other expenses are included in the house price and will not be settled separately. It is not excluded that some stores will ask for utilities, but it is not allowed to charge this fee at will.

What should merchants do if they charge utilities?

If the merchant thinks it necessary to charge this fee, he must do two things. First, he must fulfill his obligation to inform the tenant clearly in advance which fees will be charged separately and what the charging standard is, and respect the consumer's right to know and choose. If the tenant feels that this is unreasonable and unacceptable, he can leave and choose another hotel. You can't tell them in advance that the guests won't know there is such a thing until they live and have electricity. Second, the fees should be within a reasonable range, and prices should not be raised arbitrarily for profit. In other words, the original electricity price is one yuan, so two guests can't charge two, and three can't charge three.

Strictly speaking, any commercial charging behavior must be approved by the price department and filed in the relevant departments. If you can't do the above two points, it is completely understandable for guests to refuse hotel charges.
