<s>[INST] What is the best way to get to Delhi? [/INST] If arriving late at night at the airport or train station, be very wary of taxi drivers trying to scam tired and unprepared tourists. A common scam is to drive you an area of town where there are roadworks or a roadblock, and tell you that the path to your hotel is blocked off and it's not possible to take you there. They'll then suggest to take you to another hotel, where they receive a commission for bringing customers. They may take you to a number of hotels first which all say they are full up, so as to increase your desperation, and hence openness to paying more. There have been reports also, of bringing tourists to a "travel agent", who will feign ringing your booked hotel to confirm that either the way is blocked, or they are overbooked and there is no room available.

<s>[INST] How much is the extra tax? [/INST] ₹ 200 per night is as a benchmark when negotiating the price of accommodation at most ordinary hotels in Shimla, outside May and June. From 1 May 2011 an extra tax at the rate of 5.15% is charged on all hotel rooms with the approved maximum charge per night exceeding the amount of ₹ 1,000: hotel rooms with the maximum approved nightly rate below ₹1,000 are exempt. The tax, when applicable, is calculated on the maximum rate for the particular room that has been approved by the State tourism authorities and not on the actual rate negotiated between the guest and the hotel. Thus, if a particular hotel room has the approved maximum nightly rate of ₹1,200, for example, but the guest has managed to negotiate with the hotel a rate of ₹300 for that room in the off season, the final bill may attract an additional amount of ₹62 per night, or over 20% of the total. To avoid the tax in question, try to choose budget hotels with government-approved maximum rates below ₹1,000 per night (regardless of your actual negotiated amount), or those where the hotelier is willing to cover the extra charge. </s>
