I drink tap water whereever I can, but they don't taste nice everywhere.
e.g. my home - water quality is good but I hate the taste - the water tastes like a triple doses of mineral from a Evian. So I buy water to drink - unfortunately it's not cheap to do so in Sweden.
I stayed at Walt Disney World Resort and the tap water tasted very bad - it's like drinking chlorine.
Hotels close to SFO, tried 2 hotels and their water doesn't taste nice at all.
Not most of Europe that tap water is safe - southern Europe is not.
That's why bottled water is really nice to have.
