I can’t say for sure about the hotel part as I rarely stay in a hotel when vacationing in Slovenia) but I am pretty sure you got the whole thing wrong. There are no rules about tipping per se, but it is very common. It usually means just rounding the price up (i.e. rounding 3.80e to 4.00e and similar). If you feel like someone earned more, no one will stop you from giving some extra money. It is definitely not expected of you to tip, but those who receive it will definitely appreciate it. Anyway, welcome to Slovenia 🙂
Hi Janlaz,
Just saw this. I think I mentioned rounding up the cost in my guide. When I was there I always would round up for good service. This could of course mean going from 3.80e – 5e (etc), but its not like in certain countries where a tip is expected.
Thanks for the info though. Good to hear from others! I’ll update the guide a bit more Happy Tipping!
