Is it legal for hotels to raise prices during the examination?

It is not illegal for hotels to temporarily raise prices before exams.

Legally speaking, there are three kinds of prices stipulated in China's price law: market-regulated price, government-guided price and government-set price.

Generally speaking, hotels implement market-regulated prices. As long as the prices are clearly marked, they are not suspected of violating laws and regulations. However, in some places, in special periods, government-guided prices are also implemented for hotels.

Regulatory authorities should strengthen supervision and severely crack down on illegal acts such as unclear pricing, sitting on the ground, colluding with price increases, and false propaganda. To safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of consumers and prevent individual unscrupulous businesses from damaging the image of the city. Hotels should also understand that it is ok to raise prices appropriately, but they should not be willful and provide quality services at the same time.
