Alla fine del soggiorno paghiamo anche la tassa di soggiorno.

It breaks down like this:

• alla = a + la
• fine = end
• del = di + il
• soggiorno = stay

So alla fine del soggiorno means at the end of the stay.

This is a very natural Italian time expression.

Italian usually needs a preposition here. Alla fine is an established expression meaning:

• at the end
• sometimes, depending on context, in the end

In this sentence, it clearly means at the end because it is followed by del soggiorno.

So:

• alla fine del soggiorno = at the end of the stay

Del is a contraction of di + il.

Italian often combines prepositions and definite articles:

• di + il = del
• di + la = della
• a + la = alla

Since soggiorno is a masculine singular noun, il soggiorno becomes del soggiorno after di.

So:

• il soggiorno = the stay
• fine del soggiorno = end of the stay

The two occurrences have different roles:

1. del soggiorno = of the stay

   • this refers to the actual stay at the hotel or accommodation

2. tassa di soggiorno = a fixed expression meaning tourist tax or accommodation tax

   • here di soggiorno is part of the name of the tax

So even though the same word appears twice, it is not redundant in Italian. The full sentence is completely natural.

No. Soggiorno can have more than one meaning.

Common meanings include:

• stay
• living room

In this sentence, it clearly means stay because of the travel/hotel context:

• fine del soggiorno = end of the stay
• tassa di soggiorno = tourist tax

So context tells you which meaning is intended.

Italian often leaves out the subject pronoun when it is clear from the verb ending.

• paghiamo already means we pay

Because the ending -iamo shows the subject is we, adding noi is usually unnecessary unless you want emphasis or contrast.

So:

• paghiamo = we pay
• noi paghiamo = we pay, with extra emphasis on we

Italian often uses the present tense for:

• scheduled actions
• future actions that are clear from context
• general procedures

Here, alla fine del soggiorno already tells you when the payment happens, so the present tense sounds natural.

So paghiamo can mean:

• we pay
• we will pay, depending on context

If you wanted to stress the future more explicitly, you could say pagheremo, but paghiamo is very common and natural.

Anche means also or too.

In this sentence, it suggests that paying the tourist tax is an additional payment, on top of something else.

• paghiamo anche la tassa di soggiorno = we also pay the tourist tax

Its position is normal. Italian often places anche before the thing being added or near the verb.

Here it connects naturally to la tassa di soggiorno as an extra item.

Italian uses definite articles more often than English.

Here la tassa di soggiorno refers to a specific, known charge connected with the stay. That is why the article la is natural.

Compare:

• paghiamo la tassa di soggiorno = we pay the tourist tax
• paghiamo tassa di soggiorno = not natural in standard Italian

So even if English might sometimes omit an article in similar expressions, Italian usually keeps it.

Yes, Italian word order is somewhat flexible, but the original version is very natural:

• Alla fine del soggiorno paghiamo anche la tassa di soggiorno.

Starting with Alla fine del soggiorno puts the time setting first, which is common and clear.

You could also say:

• Paghiamo anche la tassa di soggiorno alla fine del soggiorno.

This is still understandable, but it sounds a little less smooth because the repeated soggiorno is closer together and the sentence feels heavier at the end.

So the original wording is a good, natural choice.
