Once when I took sports bets many years ago a guy won a big exotic on horses and I think won around $5000 and he tipped $20. However I have never been in that situation. They aren't serving you for more than a few minutes. Maybe a $20 bill for a big jackpot > $1000. I don't think it is necessary or expected to tip a slot attendant 20% of your winnings though. Someone in my family is a massage therapist at a high end spa in Arizona and I think she usually gets more than $20 per hour of her time in tips. If it's just one person, less than $100 may be reasonable but less than $20 per hour of personal service would probably be thought of as a little cheesy. I told the therapist I would bring him another $8 later but I forgot to, but I also felt like $20 is a generous tip for a 50 minute service.įor a big package, there may be several therapists involved, all of which will probably expect something. I brought $20 cash with me to use as a tip and the receptionist told me that the standard tip was $28, which was I guess about 18% of the pre- discount price of the massage of about $150. I used a travelzoo prepaid offer for a massage at the hard rock spa last summer. dollar is strong.Ĭlick to expand.I know, it's ridiculous.
This may be hard to understand given that the U.S. The hotel may charge $500 for a 3 hour service but I would guess that the therapist might see $100-150 of that before taxes, and may have not very much business Mondays through Thursdays. Service jobs tend to be lower-paying because tipping is customary. 900 South Valley View Boulevard 115, Las Vegas 3.3 mi. There is another thread somewhere in this message board that compares them.

The only one I have been to that I found to be underwhelming was the Flamingo. I have been to at least 10 different spas in vegas (usually just for visits to the facilities). Most hotel spas in Las Vegas are very nice and the general standard of facilities is high, even at some of the mid-range hotels. However the Travelzoo offers have many restrictions and close-in expiration dates so be sure to check the rules and you may want to contact the spa to make sure you can use the offer and get a reservation before you purchase the offer on travelzoo. They often have one for the Palms which is a very nice spa - I have been there a few times - but is off strip so you will need to take a taxi or uber. Another thing you could do is: often has excellent deals for hotel spas, but I have never seen one for the Wynn or Encore. Then you can buy a day pass for your hotel spa to use the facilities. If cost is an issue, one somewhat complicated option is to find a Groupon for a day spa not in a hotel which are often MUCH cheaper - I wouldn't be surprised if you might be able to find a similar package at a day spa for $100-150. Hotel spa services tend to be very expensive.
