rack rate

Published hotel price

Rack rate is the standard published price for a hotel room before any discounts.

It's the highest rate a property charges—what you'd pay walking in off the street without a reservation or special deal.

Most guests pay less through promotions, loyalty programs, or booking sites: Nobody actually pays rack rate anymore.
