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.

  • An omelet thing, cheese or veggie
  • Scrambled eggs
  • Home Frys
  • Gravey and bisket
  • Sausage and/or bacon
  • A 1-minute pancake machine that usually works...kind of
  • Ceareal
  • fruit
  • A juice machine
  • Coffe
  • Hot water
  • Hot cocoa packs
  • Tea pouches
  • Milk cartons (these are usually terrible, a lot are weird "organic" brands or "skimed to be 90% water")
  • Yogurt
  • Bagles, English muffins, and toast
  • Cinnamon rolls
  • Muffin

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.
