Hotel chain bans [trial] bacon for breakfast. [Nordic Comfort Hotels]

[Dr Ralph]

No bacon for brekkie = No stay at Hotel

Well said. People must take a stand against this type of PC rubbish.

 

[Dr Ralph]

Are alcoholic beverages served at breakfast at hotels?

The answer in my experience is that it varies, but I've definitely seen it.

 

[Dr Ralph]

Can't see why it's a big deal. Only a few nationalities eat bacon and sausage for breakfast anyway.

I don't believe that this is correct.

The ban is over bacon, sausages and other apparently unhealthy foods.

If it's issue of pork, Malaysia hotels for instance have sausages made of non-pork meats.

I suppose guests may choose to stay at hotels other than Choice Hotels group.

We have beef and lamb sausages. Both quite nice. Jury still out on chicken sausages but dad loves them.

No bacon for brekkie = No stay at Hotel

Lots of hotels in Europe (moreso in southern Europe, France etc) that don't serve bacon. Often the "continental" standard is pastries, coffee, juice and cold meats.

What has that got to do with breakfast?

No bacon for brekkie = No stay at Hotel

I wouldn't be fussed over no bacon at a hotel but I can't deal with (although have to) hotels that have coughpy or no bircher muesli.

But nothing to do with my statement that only a few nationalities eat bacon for breakfast, which you said you didn't believe was correct. I assumed the article would prove me incorrect..

I'm staying in a few of Comfort hotels in Norway next year, as long as they don't ban the salmon too I don't care about bacon and will never eat a snag.

OMG what are they thinking.Comfort hotels in Norway ban bacon and sausages for breakfast.

Bloody Mary?

Plenty 5 star hotels have free Champs available at breakfast every day

Well that eliminates that hotel chain from our travels. Number one son's behaviour improves exponentially at mention of bacon for breakfast at the hotel tomorrow...

helping unpack the car, carry the day's shopping haul, clearing out any rubbish from the rental car - bacon = the universal currency.

The free plat brekkie at the Westin Palace Madrid has Cava.And you can help yourself.

 

[Pushka]

Its pretty offensive when others decide what is healthy for me. I trust they have also removed soft drinks, alcohol, chocolate, biscuits, nuts and pretzels from the mini bar and bars; removed sugar laden cereals, white bread products, sugar in bowls, coffee, tea, and muesli, and so on from the breakfast bar. But would bet they haven't.

Yep. So did our Hotel in Barcelona

Apart from Malaysia the hotels that I stay at do have bacon for brekkie including all the ones in Scandinavia we have stayed at.The brekkies at Best western in Sweden saw the bacon as nearly the only thing edible.

Spain does superb breakfast buffets. Sweets and Cava. With a dash of bacon and eggs.
