A relatively small but also relatively varied breakfast buffet. Good cold cuts and cheese, reasonable selection of fresh fruit and very nice bread, as well as nice-looking cakes. For those who like porridge, they had that too. However, the warm dishes did not look not particularly appetising, and the juice…
Breakfast might have been slightly curtailed by the fact that the three of us in our party were probably the only guests in the hotel. However, we did get a buffet, made specially for us, if perhaps somewhat minimalist. The bread and the cold cuts and cheese were nice, there…
Italian hotel breakfasts are not among on my particular favourites. The bread is usually boring, the cold cuts probably all right, generally it’s pretty much run of the mill. The attitude seems to be, “here is some food to eat before you go out”, but no more than that. That…
They’d forgotten to tell Hotels.com that they were closed over the holidays. With this said, we’ve received very nice and welcoming treatment. There are 8 rooms of various size, all nice and warm with comfy beds.When we told them that we don’t eat pork, the breakfast buffe was enriched with delicius left-overs…
Let’s start with the positive: there is a contraption for squeezing your oranges. As for the rest, this breakfast, sad to say, confirmed my views on French hotel breakfasts in general. Yes, the bread was fresh. But, very limited choice of fruit, no vegetables, not much in terms of cheese…
This is the one hundredth entry on the Stein Brothers Travel Breakfast Blog since it began in late 2017! Please feel free to contribute entries. I am normally not very impressed by French hotel breakfasts (there are exceptions; after all, one of my favourite breakfasts was in France, as outlined…
I am running out of superlatives for Swedish breakfasts. So, to be brief: this one had all the ‘standard’ items (including herring and salmon). In addition, they had reindeer steak! The scrambled eggs were very nice, although the bacon was disappointing. I didn’t try the pancakes or the croissants, but…
This is yet another example of why Swedish hotel breakfasts are so good. The hotel is perfectly ordinary, nice but nothing fancy. However, the breakfast is excellent. A nice spread of breads, freshly baked of course (good croissants), cold cuts, cheese and vegetables. And in contrast with some other places…
Once again, a non-hotel breakfast in Stockholm. If I continue with these types of breakfasts, I will have to introduce a separate rating system. Obviously, they will never be buffets. However, the hot chocolate was quite nice, perhaps slightly bitter, but better than too sweet. The croissants have won a…
All Swedish breakfasts are not good. But the good ones are excellent! This is one of those. Another rich spread of warm food (the bacon is crispy!; and if you don’t eat pork, there are chicken sausages as well), cold (including smoked salmon, herring and a very nice fennel-spiced salami),…
