I noticed it on my hotel bill at the Shangri-La Delhi, but the US dollar amount appeared to convert fairly to the rupee charge. Am I missing something or was this just a good example of a fair exchange rate? I'm so glad to learn about this practice as I assumed choosing USD saved me from a worse bank exchange rate.
