This was a rather unexpected experience. The tour of Angkor Wat began at 5 am. No one mentioned that there would be a breakfast break. Nevertheless, there it was, and I feel bound to review it. Not a buffet, but a very extensive menu with a rather eclectic mix of…
Another good example of the fact that ‘small’ is not necessarily ‘bad’. This is thus a relatively small buffet, but with excellent and varied choice. Because it is outside, cheeses, vegetables and cold cuts are in a fridge, which is not so great for the cheese, but otherwise fine. Decent…
This was not a bad breakfast. But I have recently become so spoiled by excellent breakfasts in Southeast Asia, that it was still somewhat of a disappointment. It is a relatively small buffet, but with decent choice: warm dishes and cold, and an egg bar. The selection of any particular…
This was a breakfast that initially promised much but ultimately delivevered less. To be fair, I was prejudiced from the start because the hotel WiFi wasn’t working. However, that aside, what did we have? Loose-leaf tea and plenty of choice of that. Excellent croissants. Good choice of cheese and cold…
A fairly typical Nordic hotel buffet breakfast. In other words, a good choice across the board. Loose-leaf tea, always a plus. The pancakes were good as was the ‘normal’ bread, although the croissants were sub-par. This is one of those breakfasts that are difficult to judge. The choice was certainly…
This one was a difficult judgement. A very varied spread, although as is generally the case in Europe, no concession to non-western breakfast styles. I was particularly impressed by the Healthy Corner (the pickled Camembert was nice), and there were also gluten-free dishes on offer. My pictures don’t cover everything,…
I have said it before, and I will no doubt repeat it again. Even a small Nordic hotel will provide you with an excellent breakfast. This is an unpretentious, fairly small (40 rooms) hotel, yet the breakfast is very good indeed. Excellent choice of fresh bread, vegetables and cheeses, cold…
Simply put, this is not a good breakfast. The set-up is what I would call a semi-buffet. You take fruit and bread, granola and nuts from the buffet, then you order anything else from a very limited menu (three choices). The tea is bags only, of course. There is no…
As usual, I find it more difficult to rate a breakfast when it is not a buffet. That being said, this was quite nice. A decent choice on the menu, including Continental breakfast, English breakfast and typical Costa Rican breakfast. You can also order individual dishes. There is a plate…
Let it be said in the beginning: this is an excellent breakfast buffet. Furnitures and the general setting is stylish and functional Scandinavian. No disturbing background music and very attentive staff making sure that everything is always in order. Each category of food — bread, hot food, cold cuts and cereals —…
