💡 General Tipping Etiquette
Generally no tipping culture in Hong Kong, an unspoken rule of thumb is to leave bathroom attendants a few coins as it is much appreciated.
🍽️ Restaurants
HKD 5 to 10 at inexpensive restaurants, and about 15% of the bill at fine restaurants. Sometimes it is added to the bill (especially in excepnsive places).
🚕 Taxis
Round up the change, although some taxi drivers won’t take tips at all
🏨 Hotels
HKD 10 to 15 for per piece of luggage carried for you is appropriate (1-2 US $) and 2% of the daily room charge will suffice for the room attendant as well as any smaller change
