As a European, I had no idea this was something I needed to do. Man, I have so many questions.
How much? Is it a fixed amount per night or a gesture amount for the whole stay? Do I only put money in the envelope when I'm leaving or do I get a new envelope every day? Is it always the same housekeeper? Do they pool the money and divide it among themselves? If there's anything the matter with the housekeeping, do I dock it from their tip? Are there envelopes for the bus driver, too?
US citizen here. Stayed in many hotels. Never once tipped for housekeeping. I've tipped for lots of small extras, like bag service, valet, etc. I know it's a thing some people do, but it's certainly not standard or expected. Cleaning the room is part of the stay price.
Thanks for sharing. Honestly it's been nagging at me because I'm coincidentally on a business trip. It occurred to me whether I should tip the gas station attendant (or whatever it's called, the person who refuels your car in some states). He didn't seem to expect it and I didn't, but I've begun worrying about whom I should be tipping.
If it's work and you get reimbursed, just tip everyone. Unless receipts are required.
Yup, receipts are required.
