Las
Vegas is a "tipping" city. The following is a general tipping
guide for various services in Las Vegas casinos and hotels.
These are just suggestions, not requirements in appreciation
of good service!
Dealers:
Players usually tip dealers by placing a bet for them (if
the bet wins, the dealer keeps it). The amount and the frequency
is up to you.
Change
Persons, Keno Runners, Sports & Race book Personnel, etc.
Giving a portion of your winnings (5-10%) is standard practice.
It also doesn't hurt to tip a dollar occasionally when you
don't win.
Bartenders
& Cocktail Waitresses:
A dollar a round for a small group (1-4 people), increasing
the amount considering the number of people in your party
and the kind of service you receive.
Bellmen
& Bell Captains:
The amount of the tip depends of the amount of luggage that
they have to haul up to your room. $2.00 per bag or $5.00
for 3-4 bags is standard. Any extra services the bell desk
performs for you (travel arrangements, phone calls, flower
delivery, etc.) should also be rewarded with a coupla bucks.
Room
Service
The same as you would tip in a restaurant-15-20% depending
on service.
Maids
Leave $1-$3 Dollars per day in your room for good service.
Showroom
Maitre d' & Ushers:
In many of the Vegas hotels, showroom seating is now done
by reservation. In the few that still leave the seating up
to the discretion of the Maitre d', a tip of $10-$20 for a
dinner show should put you where you want to be. Check your
bill to see if a tip has already been automatically added
in. If not, consider giving a small tip ($1-$5) to your usher
for courteous service.
Valet
Parking:
Free valet parking can be found at every major hotel. A tip
of around $2.00-$3.00 to the attendant is standard. Also,
remember $5.00 at the pick-up window will ensure you car is
pulled up quickly on a busy night.
