When parking is included in the price, people who visit without a car pay for a service they don’t use.
Of course if literally no one arrives without a car, then it’s easiest and most transparent to include it.
Yep. Plus, if my group carpools but sleeps in multiple rooms, we only have to pay 1 parking fee. If the fee is included then we’d pay per room instead of per vehicle.
If you are talking about North America, then that might be true. But a lot of other countries have extensive train systems where even ruraler places are well connected. Add hotels close to bike trails and you’ve got two two examples of people not necessarily arriving by car.

It’s a hotel, most people would arrive by car unless it’s downtown in a big city (good case for paid parking)
