Would you tip???

DH is American so we end up tipping everybody whether it's in the UK or the US!

I believe its custom to tip 1 cent if the service is bad. Zero tip may be seen as just forgetting or just tight. The 1 cent is saying "your service was awful"

That's what DH always does!

I think the general guideline is around a dollar per person thats in your room, you should also leave it seperately every day in an envelope marked for them or in an obvious place, because you may have different housekeepers every day and they won't take the money unless they 'know' its for them, there are some special mousekeeping envelope designs on allears.net specifically for this or you could make your own.
