Hospitality in Spain

Spain's hospitality is social and late-night, with tapas bars, terraces and seafood restaurants. Tourism is massive in coastal regions and islands. Cities like Barcelona and San Sebastián have global food reputations.

Tipping

Tipping is modest. Rounding up or leaving a few euros is common; 5-10% for very good service in restaurants.

Working there

Hospitality has collective agreements by region. Seasonal work is common. Non-EU workers need permits, though some regularisation pathways exist.

Rules on pay and visas change. Check official government guidance before you move.
