Hygiene plays a big role in Restaurant Tycoon 3. If your restaurant is clean, your overall rating goes up, and this helps attract VIP customers. A better hygiene score also increases tips if you have the Tip Jar in your place.
At the start, it can feel hard to keep hygiene high because bathroom items and sinks cost a lot. But if you plan smartly, you can boost hygiene without wasting money. Let’s go step by step and see how you can do it.
Best Ways to Increase Hygiene in Restaurant Tycoon 3
The game gives you two main areas to work on: Kitchen and Bathroom. Both sections have items that raise your hygiene score.
Kitchen Items
In the kitchen, sinks are the only things that matter for hygiene. There are two main choices:
- Basic Sink: Costs $350. Works fine for beginners.
- Industrial Sink: Costs $750. More expensive but more effective.
Adding at least one sink early in the game will stop your hygiene rating from dropping too much.
Bathroom Items
Bathrooms are the main part of hygiene in Restaurant Tycoon 3. There are many items you can place, such as:
- Soap: $40
- Toilet Paper: $40
- Regular Toilet: $60
- Basic Sink: $70
- Towel: $95
- Soap Dispenser: $105
- Hand Dryer: $120
- Modern Toilet: $160
- Wooden Sink: $180
- Double Bathroom Stall: $360
You can use multiple items of the same type. For example, two sinks or two soap dispensers will raise your hygiene faster.
How to Build a Restroom in Restaurant Tycoon 3
Here’s a simple way to make a restroom for your customers:
- Expand Your Space: Save at least $4000 before starting. Use this money to make a separate area.
- Divide the Room: Create three parts for Male, Female, and Gender-Neutral restrooms.
- Add Doors and Signs: Put bathroom signs so customers know where to go.
- Place Hygiene Items: Add toilets, sinks, towels, dispensers, and trash bins inside.
- Lighting: Don’t forget to keep the washrooms bright. It makes them look realistic.
