How or who do you tip when checking in/out of a hotel? There seems to be an army of people involved in the short trip - one person takes the luggage out of the car, another gives you a claim check for the car and parks it, another takes your luggage to the check-in desk, and then another takes it up to the room. The process is repeated when you leave. Do you tip each one a small amount, or give a good tip to the last one for all of them (which is what I have been doing).

I only tip the guy who takes it all the way to my room. Taking it from the car to the luggage carrier doesn't warrant a tip to me. Taking it from the luggage carrier to the check in desk doesn't warrant a tip to me either. I only tip the guy who takes it to the room.
