To be fair, that is documented on a card in my room, just by the phone.

Not quite. The room charge listed daily is the total including VAT.
In the summary at the bottom it's broken out separately, but that
is for accounting purposes, for reclaims in cases where VAT
can be reclaimed. That is pretty standard in the EU, where
companies can often reclaim VAT paid on business costs.
