I don't know where everyone is staying but I normally get a choice of single serve cereal bowls, bagels with maybe 3 types of spread, some type of juice, coffee, milk, and occasionally a selection of fruit. Everything is served with cheap plastic or cardboard not silverware, glass, cloth or ceramic.
I honestly wouldn't know because they clean that shit up at 9:30.
I have never seen a hotel breakfast that wasn't being put away by 9am.
Do people eat breakfast past 7am
Do people wake up before 7am?
Do people wake up before 7am ... on vacation???
I like breakfast around 10-10:30, +/-, so yeah.
Don’t you have some soil to till?
I eat breakfast between 12-14h. After I went to bed at 6.
Breakfast is when you wake up, it doesn't have a specific time.
Pretty much every hotel without “inn” in the name has at least reconstituted egg foam, bacon, and sausage.
You forgot the waffle/ pancake machine.
I went to a 3-star hotel that was also doing this. Their free breakfast also includes eggs that came from a carton.
That would be a continental breakfast. What's shown in the picture is closer to an English breakfast
Holy fuck you guys have low expectations for a continental breakfast 😂
The US doesn't have anything called an English breakfast outside of restaurants which specifically cater to that. Aside from what looks like quiche, that looks like a pretty standard continental breakfast.
I travel a lot for work, and this is my experience in and around Germany (even for small, family owned, 10 bedroom hotels):
- 3 kinds of bread rolls
- 2 types of bread to cut by yourself
- Also soft, crustless, white bread (aka toast)
- Butter and 3 kinds of cream cheese
- 4-10 types of cheese
- 4-8 types of cold cut meats
- 3 jams/jellies
- Honey
- Nutella
- Liver pâté
- Scrambled or boiled egg
- 1 type fried sausage
- 1-3 types of Müsli (cereal mix with oats and nuts or fruits)
- 2-3 types of box cereal (the sweet kind like fruit loops)
- Yoghurt plain and fruit-flavoured
- Quark dessert
- Canned fruit mix
- Fresh fruit
- Croissants or muffins or Madeleines
- optional waffles or pancakes
For drinks:
- Orange juice
- Multivitamin juice
- Coffee
- Hot water bar with 3-12 types of tea
4-5 star hotels in Europe tend to serve quality food in a decent tableware.
1-3 star hotels do as well
I think good hotel breakfast peaks at the middle of the price curve.
I stayed at a La Quinta by Portland airport and they had pancakes, Belgian waffle machines with butter and syrup, biscuits, bacon, eggs, cereal, fruit, juice... For a $115 a night room.
I've stayed at the Four Seasons in Chicago and they had bread and juice.
