Pretty much every holiday inn I stay at for work has had a decent breakfast. They run 6:30 to 9 and keeps things well stocked at least until 8 (I'm never there later)
They've all had the same "menu", plus or minus a few things. They tend to rotate the hot items every otherday.
Taking it easy means waking up around 10 and hitting the lobby at 11 or 12 for breakfast. Also 8 is literally sunrise depending on location/time of year
If you're expecting a breakfast buffet at lunch time, you have some odd expectations.
And yes, 8 is often still dark, but work doesn't change their start time for the sun.
However, I do understand the pains of the late risers. Having breakfast pre-made, ready when you wake up is very nice, no matter the time.
I agree with you but, at most hotels in the US, checkout time is 11am.
You're not wrong but after having this exact breakfast at HIE and Hampton Inn about 50+ times, it's crap. Bland and repetitive and usually cold but somehow over cooked or the most undercooked eggs/bacon. My company always strongly recommends booking a room with breakfast included, but f that I'll go find a $10 diner and have real bacon.
Why the fuck are you sharing this information?
Why shouldn't they? O.o
I mean, it's pretty on topic?
This is funny as fuck ngl, he may be an asshole but this was just so unexpected while he kind of has a point
It's weird, I completely agree that's it's on topic but I also completely agree with questioning why he's sharing this...
Holiday Inn has hijacked the user's mind and using them to advertise. Insidious!
Many others in the thread talked about their hotels that give them a bagged egg and stale cereal, so I decided to share my relatively consistent experience with a hotel chain. These forms are the last place for hopefully actual reviews/information. The alternatives are ad-infected paid 'reviews' or a pile of google/yelp reviews that basically amount to "if I could give 0 stars I would because the hotel internet went down during a hurricane" or "10/10 recommend"
Is Holiday inn the cheapest option? no. Is it possible I've just lucked out with the ones in my region? yes.
But clearly some people value breakfast at hotels, and I choose to share an option in detail.
