Hong kong notes

Generally speaking, the law and order in Hong Kong is good day and night. But you should avoid carrying a lot of cash, and it is better to use traveler's checks or credit cards, and make full use of the hotel's security facilities.

Most hotels and restaurants add 10% service charge to the bill, and customers can add 5% as a tip. If there is no service charge in the restaurant, you can voluntarily tip 10% of the consumption. Taxi drivers, doormen and toilet attendants, passengers can give tips as appropriate.

Most hotels provide same-day laundry service, and many hotels also provide child care service. The voltage in Hong Kong is 200/220 volts, and most hotels are equipped with transformers/converters for electrical appliances. Small appliances brought from China are generally acceptable.

Hotels and supermarkets also sell various bottled distilled water and mineral water. Some parks also have drinking places where visitors can drink water for free.

Shopping tips:

Patronize businesses with the "quality tourism service" logo.

The "Quality Tourism Service" scheme is a certification scheme to maintain Hong Kong's reputation as a "shopping paradise". Merchants must meet the standards stipulated in the Plan, including four standards: quality service guarantee, diversified commodity selection, attractive display methods and clear price tag, before issuing and posting the "quality tourism service" logo for identification. This sign makes it easy for you to identify trusted retailers and ensure that passengers can enjoy some customer rights.
