AI Summary
This bill requires third-party booking sites, which are websites or mobile applications that allow consumers to compare prices and book rooms at multiple hotels, to clearly disclose when additional fees are required to access extra hotel services, such as parking, breakfast, or spa treatments, beyond the cost of the room itself. These booking sites must inform consumers that extra charges apply and specify which of these ancillary hotel services, meaning supplementary offerings like dining or early check-in, come with these additional fees. Failure to comply with these disclosure requirements will be considered a violation of the Tennessee Consumer Protection Act of 1977, a law designed to prevent unfair or deceptive business practices, and will be subject to the penalties and remedies outlined in that act.
