Las Vegas United States Tipping & etiquette

Tipping & etiquette

Tipping in the United States of America is as indispensable thing as to pay when you use public transport. This procedure has even become a sort of a tradition or a rule: if a person takes pains to serve you, than it is obligatory to remunerate his/her for that.

Moreover, the wide-spread fact is known that most wait staff in the US restaurants is paid below the minimum wage, because the employers are expected to make up the difference in tips. So all the Americans are trying to be compassionate and merciful and realize it in giving good tips.

In any case if you are mistreated you may address the manager and hence not leaving any gratuity.

The amount of the tips is usually corresponding to the quality of service. So if you receive exceptional service, than 15-20 % from the bill is customarily.

Unlike many other countries the service is not included in the bill, and that is why the Americans know that leaving tips will be a great profit for the waitresses and waiters. In general, a server may earn far above minimum wage on a good evening or night, or even exceed it.

When staying in the hotel, tipping is rather a customer thing as well. Every day your room is cleaned by one of the members of the hotel staff. So it is a tradition to leave some money on the pillow or some other obvious place with a note, where you say thank you for keeping your room in order. Besides, it is advisable to do it every day and not when leaving the hotel, as your room can be maintained by another person every day.

When asking a concierge for general piece of advice or restaurant reservation tipping is not expected, in any case you can leave some money if you want to, of course.
