Now, accommodation is a very strange topic when it comes to how much to charge. Why do I say this, well, what you set the price to for the accommodation is not what the guest actually pay. This is a very strange feature and very annoying when playing. So I've spend ages following the guests and working out how much they pay for each type of accommodation so you don't have to do the guess work. All accommodation in the table has the quality set to the default value.

The minimum charge will enable you not too loss any money on the accommodation if it is full, so this is the idea price to set when starting the game. Minimum guest and maximum profit only applies if the price charged is set to maximum and the quality has not been changed. You can increase the price of the accommodation to maximum later in the game when you park is large enough and popular, but until this time, high accommodation prices drives away guest staying for a week. This gives you a bad park reputation and makes it nearly impossible to attract weekly guests later in the level.
On another not, the 8 birth chalets do not seem to be very popular with guest so you are best building 4 and 16 birth chalets at the start of the game.
