Meals we usually leave 10% (if the service and food is good of course). Not sure about hotels as we don't stay in them in Turkey.

Have a great time.

10% usually, most hotels you pay for everything as you leave but if anyone has given me good service I will tip them separately at the end
and for the other staff use the tip box.
enjoy.

I don`t leave a tip when only having a drink.
If I have a meal, I will leave 1 Lira, if the service has been exceptional I will leave 2 Lira.

 :)We always tip according to the service, the better the service the bigger the tip, but when your just having a drink I dont think you should tip, unless you've had a few there.i'm not a minge bag either. ;)
