      That’s the thing I hate the most about free hotel breakfast: by the time normal people get up, they’ve already shut it down for the day. I swear they do it on purpose to save money.

        Just how late do you wake up?

        I often stay at hotels for work, and by 8AM I’m leaving so I can be wherever I need to be at by 9, so yeah, breakfast needs to be around 7h30.

        Even at home this is a usual schedule, since commuting is a pain.

        By 10AM at the latest probably most places also need to wrap up service so they can clear up and prepare to serve lunches in a couple of hours.

        It’s not that unreasonable…

          At home that’s the schedule because I have to get to work. It’s not a choice. But on vacation I’m not going to force myself to get up at 6 or 7. Certainly not if I’m out till 4, which is something that happens on occasion (less nowadays, but still).

            And why would you wake up at 6 or 7? There are zero hotels that end breakfast service at that time, that’s just a bullshit argument.

            What I’m saying is that they need to start early to accommodate other people staying there, and that at some point they need to start lunch, so if you wake up at 11 that’s perfectly reasonable, just don’t expect the world to hold for your lordship to come back to the land of the living.

      Many guests are actually there for work. If breakfast opens at 7, that’s a little late for my liking. I gotta finish and drive over to the client and start timely.
