    What are the tipping rates for restaurants, hotels and cabs?? Coming from the US where the minimum is 15%.

    Hi ushapin,

    Tipping is very uncommon here (you’ll notice the prices are quite high to compensate!)

    If anything, you would round up to the nearest 1 or 2chf if you wanted to.
