Hey everyone, I need some advice. I don't usually stay in deluxe hotels, and we're staying in the Portofino Bay next week. What's the expected tips for bellboys, valet parking, room service, & concierge? For bellboys, I heard somewhere long ago, $1/bag but surely that's outdated now.
Room service really irks me at most places. They usually add a 20% delivery fee anyway and then are you supposed to tip on top of that?
Also my wife probably suspects that our beat-up minivan is too embarrassing for us to get it valet parked. Given how little extra it costs to valet vs self park, why not do valet? Would you be hesitant to valet park a jalopy? Personally, I'm not but I am curious what the consensus is out there.
Thanks in advance!
