An excellent breakfast. A good choice of warm and cold dishes. The warm dishes include the standard ones, but also some Polish specialties, such as roast apples or dumplings with apricots (very yummy). Cold dishes or a nice, with varied spread of salads, cheese, cold cuts including both herring and…
This is an excellent breakfast. Very good choice of fresh bread, cold cuts, vegetables and cheeses, as well as jams and condiments. There is also a menu from which you can order warm dishes, mainly but not exclusively egg, and including to East Asian optionsThe smoked and marinated salmon were…
A mixed bag. The two main negatives are no warm dishes (except a basket of hard boiled eggs) and very weak in terms of fruit. The latter is the more surprising since the hotel proudly talks about the “many organic and fair trade products” they offer at breakfast. On the…
There is good and there is bad. This is a small airport hotel. The buffet has a decent choice, with some warm dishes. Unfortunately, the quality is rather uneven. The bread is nice. But the cold cuts and the cheese are fairly tasteless. The tortilla was unimpressive, although the small…

Unbelievably charming och personal, with an incredibly good, varied and delicious breakfast. I have breakfasted in many places in the world, and this one is one of my top 3 – ever! (The other two are in Sun City in South Africa, and in Singapore.) Excellent variation, with pleasant and…
A fairly basic buffet, heavier on the Chinese side than on the western. Plenty of warm dishes, not so much on the cold side, which was mainly a small cheese selection and some vegetables. No cold cuts, no cold fish, limited fruit selection. The scrambled eggs were decent. The bread…
In my introduction to this Travel Breakfast Blog, I write that one of the best hotel breakfasts I have had the pleasure of trying, was at the Island Shangri-La in Hong Kong. Although I have been back to Hong Kong a number of times, I had not revisited this breakfast…
I have to declare an interest. I am a part owner of this homestay just north of Dien Bien Phu, site of the spectacular defeat inflicted on the French in the spring of 1954 by the Viet Minh, commanded by general Vo Nguyen Giap, one of the great military geniuses…
