If you're planning a trip to Edinburgh soon, you might be paying a little bit more to stay.
The city has become the first in Scotland to introduce a tourist tax, which will see those staying overnight in hotels, bed and breakfasts and self-catering accommodation charged an additional 5% on top of their original booking cost.
The council estimates the tax could raise around £50m a year to help fund improvements to the city, but opponents claim the additional cost could put some potential visitors off.
Popular European destinations including Amsterdam, Paris and Rome already tax visitors, but what do you think, would this stop you from visiting Edinburgh?
