What is the appropriate amount to tip for room service?

Hi I have a cruise coming up this September and am wondering what is the appropriate amount to tip when I order room service?

Can anyone offer a suggestion,

Thanks

From zero to whatever you think is appropriate, room service is part of the tipping pool. Saying the we usually tip between 2 and 5 $

That sounds right to me... :cool:

$1 or $2 for continental breakfast.

Depends on service, but usually $1 - 2 a piece for breakfast. Maybe $5-6 total for PIA experience or dinners.

I have always given $5 (usually items for 1 or 2 people) unless it is for several people, then up to $10

We do $5 for breakfast.

Here we go again and again and again. It really is a boring subject.

$2-$5.

RS is not included in the tip pool.

Consider it like a donation. Whatever you feel like giving will be appreciated . :)

You pay a service charge. I only tip if the service is exceptional.

(There are so many threads on tipping. Suggest you do research first).

There is no service charge for RS.

Don't you wonder where people come up with such misinformation??

Self justification for not tipping. :(

Agree we the $2-$5 range. There is no service charge and don't care even if they are included in the tip pool (which I don't believe they are). I'm sure they appreciate anything provided.

I'm not a double tipper so nothing. They are included in the daily tipping pool.

We have coffee delivered as our wake-up call!😉 we tip them $2

We usually tip between $2 for a continental breakfast to $5 if we order a full breakfast. Other than those times, we really never find ourselves ordering from room service.

And just so you know, so you don't have to get a bunch of small bills out, on Princess, they hand you a delivery slip with a spot to sign and leave a tip, which will be added directly to your folio. They make it very convenient.

For 2 pots of coffee, cream and sugar, we tip $2. Many times they have gotten the order wrong and room service has to make another trip to get what we asked for. It never fails.

$2-$3 for continental breakfast for the two of us.

Here's a room service tip. The cups room service brings for coffee in the morning are too small. We get the coffee mugs on the Lido deck, they're twice the size of the ones they bring with the coffee. We grab 6 cups at a time and hide them in the drawer.;p

We order at least tea in the room the first morning. We drink only the specialty coffees, not the regular stuff...but having hot tea to relax with is nice. We don't just stash mugs from the buffet, we hide the carafe and refill it at the buffet as needed throughout the cruise.

For me it's always between $2. & $5. :)

Folks are more than happy with a $2 cash tip... we do that daily for breakfast and get excellent service.
