Can anyone shed any light as to what is acceptable tipping amounts to any of the following? I have seen so much information on this subject that my head is beginning to spin.

Bell Hop
Town Car Driver (round trip or each way)

Here is what we tip. Tipping is a personal choice so no exact amount is "correct".

Bell Hop - $1 to $1.50 per bag depending on how big the bag.

Town Car Driver - 15% I am not sure as I have only done this on business and signed the charge slip on an each way bases. It depends on how you are being charged I would guess.

Maid Service - We tip $1 per person per day and you will get alot of debate on this one as some people feel it is not a tipped position and others do. We tip $1 per person per day no matter what resort we are at (Disney or non-Disney) unless we are at an all inclusive that states no tipping.

Never stayed conceirge so I cannot comment on that.

Hope you have a great trip.

in past threads, Town car drivers are usually tipped $10 each way (you may not get the same driver each way)...

At least that's what I'm bringing with me... and I made up little mousekeeping envelopes 1 for each day for our stay. I'm leaving $1.00 per person also. I used to have to clean up after college students so I KNOW what it's like to be a maid, plus I'm a Mom, so in a way, I'm still a maid!!!! LOL.

Good luck!
:D

Thanks for the input. Does anyone have the link to print out the mousekeeping envelopes? I saw it somewhere once before and I did not keep it in my files. Thanks.

Housekeeping tips - I was a chambermaid years and years ago.

If you tip - tip daily as the maids sometimes rotate areas. If you leave one big tip at the end of your stay, every maid who worked in your room may not receive anything.
