A rock-bottom daily budget would be EUR40.00 a day. Allow about
EUR60.00 per day if you want your own room, plan to eat out regularly,
and intend to see all the sights. If you want a real vacation
- comfortable rooms and good restaurants all the way - you will
need closer to EUR100.00 per day. Hotel rates vary enormously
according to season - you can save as much as 30% if you travel
outside high season (mid-June till end of August).
All upmarket shops, restaurants and hotels accept credit cards.
Visa, MasterCard (Access) and Eurocard are the most widely accepted.
Most banks have ATMs where you can access your debit or credit
account.
In restaurants the service charge is included in the bill but
it is the custom to leave a small amount; rounding up the bill
is usually sufficient. Likewise for taxis - a small gratuity is
appreciated.
