Hotel breakfast likes & dislikes

[Mattg]

What do and don’t you like about breakfast served at a hotel?

I’ll start….

Like:

• When it’s served until later than 9.30am (I’m at a hotel currently where the breakfast buffet ends at noon and it’s great!)
• When the scrambled eggs are freshly prepared from real eggs
• When there’s a juicer to DIY fresh fruit juice
• When the coffee is made by a barista

Dislike:

• At American-style hotels, when they don’t make coffee or water available for self service from the buffet and instead you have to wait for a waiter to bring it to your table - which is fine, except when you have to spend ages trying to flag someone down. That’s literally the opposite of premium!
• Often, the price (unless it’s included with the room or via status)
• Extra charges for coffee or hot food

Dislike
*The cost when it’s not included - frequently over $50 for my continental breakfast (I don’t pay)
* dodging kids when I’ve got my hands full
* cough coffee
* “ find the butter”

Like
* fresh juicer
* plenty of tables – not packed
* variety with the fruit - not just cantaloupe watermelon and pineapple. Bonus points for raspberry coulis for my cereal.
