The Mobile Area Lodging Corporation has formed a Mobile Tourism Improvement District (MTID) with a new hotel room assessment that goes into effect July 1.

The district provides specific benefits to more than 65 lodging properties by funding targeted marketing and sales promotions to generate hotel room nights.

The MTID includes all lodging properties with 40 rooms or more in the city of Mobile. The annual assessment rate will be $1 per occupied room night, a cost that will be assessed to the hotel guest and included on the guest’s room portfolio upon checkout. The Mobile City Council approved the MTID on May 19. The district is set to expire May 31, 2025.
