Also the definition of breakfast is best applied to pets and small animals because the amount and quality of food given is not meant for a full grown human adult.
For the sake of your health I just need you to know, you don’t need to eat your entire body weight worth of food at every meal.
Lol … I guess everyone thinks I’m a 300 lb land whale.
I’ve traveled a lot over the past 20 years and stayed in lots of places of varying quality from the cheapest sleaziest highway motels, jungle huts in Thailand all the way to five star hotels in European cities.
The common thing I’ve encountered is American and Canadian hotels that consider breakfast is just a muffin or a piece of toast and some cheap coffee. I’ve stayed at three star and four star places that cheaped out on their breakfast to only serve prepackaged muffins and cheap disgusting coin operated machine made coffee. And on many occasions was told I was too late for breakfast as all the food was now gone, even though it was just muffins and coffee.
The best hotel breakfasts I’ve ever had were always in Europe where they have a tradition of serving great breakfast. Even cheap places to out of their way to give you at least good coffee.
So my complaint is North American Hotel breakfasts… and no I’m not a pig, at least not a 300 lb one.
This is a myth. Unless you are dead tired and utterly exhausted, you’ll never sleep all that well in a hotel room because in the back of your little mammalian brain you’ll always “know” that it’s not “home,” and you won’t ever feel entirely comfortable until you’ve slept there for a few nights.
So it’s not really like the “escape” herein described.
Unless you travel all the time, in which case again, it’s not really an “escape” and is just more of the same.
Idk I’ve never had issues sleeping while traveling, and I don’t do it very often.
I’m now in my third week of my trip, I’ve slept in at least six different places, and I’ve yet to feel comfortable sleeping. There’s a feeling of uneasy I can’t shake off .
I love that feeling, because of my wife, we happened to travel a lot, and I mean way more than what’s considered a healthy amount of holidays.
Now visiting a foreign city is nothing new, same of the same. Sleeping in hotel is the usual thing, but I miss the first times we travelled, the wonder and mystery of a new place and that feeling of “I don’t belong here”.
I havent really experienced that tbh. But unlike (seemingly) most people these days I don’t really have issues with falling asleep in general. I fall asleep just fine in hotels. Personally my issue with hotels is that it usually gets quite messy due to the limited space and also I sometimes get a sore back from the too soft beds.
It’s easy, really. Just sleep in enough and start with lunch, at least that’s what I do whenever I can.
It is very common at the majority of hotels (in the US at least), that there is a daily free breakfast available to all guests in or near the lobby. It is buffet style and available within a time window that’s often on the earlier side. The quality varies some, but it’s normally on the cheap side. But for something that is included in the price of the room and gives you something warm and filling in the morning, it’s often good enough in my experience. Some that I’ve had were even notably good. Though there has been a couple hotels where the food was so limited in selection or poor enough in quality that I chose to go out for a hot breakfast instead.
Each Embassy Suites location I’ve stayed at had an hour at night where drinks were cheaper at their bar if you’re staying there, and they had an amazing omelette bar in the morning complete with other options. Surprisingly it was one of the less expensive hotel options, too!
That’s okay, hotel breakfasts are almost always awful in my experience.
If there’s bacon and sausage, no matter how sad looking, it’s American breakfast.
Continental breakfast is European style — bread, butter, and jam, pastries, maybe some yogurt. Hardboiled eggs if you’re lucky.
Dame, where in the world are you staying. Most hotels in my country have good to amazing breakfast and I have never heard about paying for breakfast.
In the US, most “free” (or included) hotel breakfasts range from bad to terrible. There are some exceptions, but they are few and far between.
Whereas my experience in Scandinavia was the opposite. Breakfasts were generally included or at least offered, and they ranged from alright to amazing. The only issue I had was that they all seemed to be following the same playbook (more or less). Some more variety would be nice.
Like the other guy said, this is the US we’re talking about. Please tell us what country you’re from so I can come verify your claim myself.
Just as bad is if you’re a morning person but they don’t serve breakfast until like 10.
