We're very much at the higher end of things- 8euro for both champagne and wine. Got them down from 12 and apparently we did well to achieve that. Expensive but will still work out better value than their own house wine.

Most hotels will go much lower, we're in a country house type venue so didn't have too much joy

Ours was 8 but we got them down to 5 for wine, sparkling wine, champers, etc all same price! I think this is definitely one thing you should try to haggle on!

You should haggle with them I think most places know well you are going to ask that they reduce this cost given that some places do corkage at no charge!
