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.
Also, if you get up at 11, you could just go get lunch.
I wake up naturally around 8:30, typically don’t eat until about 10, breakfast should be served until 11 considering brunch is from 11-2 most places

Me who wakes up for work at 4am but doesn't eat anything till 11am.
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.
We're built different
Yes, def this.
I trust housekeeping just walks in, sees me sleeping, gently smooch me on the forehead & quietly leave the room.
Paid for the whole room gonna use the whole room
I swear it's the blackout curtains. I'll draw them tight on the first night, then have a surprise in the morning if I didn't set my alarm.
Free breakfast ends at 10, but I'll be damned if I dont eat it and go straight back to bed.
In a lot of hotels people in other rooms start making noise around that time anyway, so you might as well get up and enjoy a big breakfast that you dont have to prepare yourself
Also: you paid for that shit, damn well gonna eat it while its out there.
Well, I probably woke up all of them 2 hours earlier stumbling to my(-ish) room.
(Just kidding, I super don't like to make noise regardless of my state.)
7:00 -- breakfast
8:00 -- continue to sleep
People sleeping in uncovered blankets and pillows triggers me so hard, why do people do that?
Uncovered blankets?
Nude blankets
Stupid sexy blankets that are wearing nothing at all!!
Basically. Don't actually know what the right word is for which part of the bedding, so I went for that. 😅
Duvet cover?
I think they're talking about the duvet
You put a blanket on your blanket?
I think its the fact that you dont have to prepare the food. You wake up, throw some shit on and just fuck off to eat for an hour straight because they have all the food you would ever want.
A change in environment often energizes people.
That and you pay good money to go on vacation. Why would you waste it sleeping, which you can do anywhere?
but you can't do it anywhere. you have work, responsibilities. the whole point of vacation is to take a break.
Absolutely not the case for me personally. If it were I'd just stay home and save the money then.

Not if I'm by myself in the hotel/trip.
I/someone paid for the bed & I'm gonna use it.
They'll still stop serving breakfast at 9 sharp and you'll be hungry until lunch. 🙁
I'm not one of those people that needs to eat at precise intervals or even every day. I just eat when in hungry for something.
In summer dinner is usually my first (and often only) meal.
I almost never eat breakfasts (especially if I woke up "only" a few hours ago). Never could, even parents wanted me to but I just had better days without breakfast as a kid so they stopped insisting.
I assume that when I travel I have access to food basically everywhere or else I know I have to plan that - which again I do in a way that I eat when I want.
The extra hours of sleep are well worth the cost of a non-complimentary breakfast whenever I'm ready for it.
I'm good
To be fair. At home I ain’t got shit to do. On vacation, there’s always something to do…even rushing to the pool/beach to do more nothing.

... because you want to or because breakfast ends before you normally get up?
Am I missing the joke here? Your God damn right I'm going to be up eating the delicious breakfast buffet when I'm on vacation. And your also right that I'm going to sleep until lunch on the weekends so I don't need to expend effort for breakfast. I literally can't see doing this any other way.
Also of course I will be up early if I'm at a hotel so I can get the most time out of my stay. Because I'm most likely somewhere where I want to experience things.
🤷♂️
If I am on vacation I miss about 95% of all breakfasts in Hotels. They are too early.
And if it is a free breakfast it usually is garbage anyways.
There are exceptions but they are very rare.
Spot on. I love being almost alone with my breakfast, tons of coffee and my book.
I just back from vacation, stayed at a hotel that had free breakfast from 6-9. I was in that hotel for a full week, didn't make it to breakfast once. Felt like a waste of money, waking up at noon and walking to a breakfast place nearby, but I'd rather pay for a meal than wake up early so 🤷♂️
This is not me.
I'm not hungry at the morning anyway.
f*ck morning people
f*ck morning, people
f*ck, morning people
...the last thing i want is to interact with another living soul before 11.30, preferably not before 13.30: i wish they were dead, or at least not a part of the world i live in...
You’re spiritually a morning person, just in another time zone.
