Is the water in the hotel free?

Whether the water in the hotel is free depends on the hotel's regulations. Generally speaking, the tap water provided by the hotel is free and guests can use it at any time. Some hotels will also put a certain amount of bottled water in the room in advance, or it may be free.

But some hotels, especially high-end hotels, may charge for bottled water or do not provide free water. Tap water in some areas is not suitable for direct drinking and may contain too many heavy metals and other pollutants. Therefore, when the hotel uses tap water, it is best to boil or filter it first.

It is suggested to ask the hotel staff about the specific water supply policy before staying in the hotel to avoid misunderstanding or inconvenience.
