Tipping & service charges

Det er ikke alltid god skikk å tipse i Storbritannia. If you feel the service was good and you want to show your appreciation, here is a guide to customary practice:

Hotels
Most hotel bills include a service charge, usually 10-12%. På hotellrestauranter som ikke inkluderer servicegebyr er det vanlig å gi 10–15 % av restaurantregningen i tips. På rommet kan du legge igjen valgfritt beløp til ryddepersonalet.

Restaurants
Many restaurant bills include a service charge; make sure you check the bill to avoid tipping twice. Hvis servicegebyr ikke er inkludert, er det vanlig å gi 10–15 % av sluttsummen i tips. Noen restauranter gir et forslag til tipsbeløp på selve regningen.

Taxis
10-15% of the fare
