COMFY beds, mini toiletries and a buffet breakfast are some of the highlights of staying at a hotel.<\/p>\n

However, the complimentary hotel breakfast could soon be on the way out – unless you want to pay extra for it.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Most hotels in the UK – excluding budget chains and aparthotels – traditionally come on a B&B basis, meaning breakfast is included in the price.<\/p>\n

This ranges from a continental option to a full cooked menu.<\/p>\n

But one travel writer says it has become a "worrying trend" where hotels now charge for breakfast – even if paying a huge amount for a room.<\/p>\n

Writing for The Times, Cathy Adams slammed a hotel in Monaco where a suite cost \u00a31,300 a night – but breakfast was only included "to the value of \u00a344" which got little more than toast, some pastries and coffees.<\/p>\n

A London hotel charging \u00a37,070 for their best suite still doesn't include breakfast – and you'll have to fork out another \u00a334.<\/p>\n

And it's not the only problem with hotel breakfasts, according to travellers.<\/p>\n

Early breakfast hours, especially on weekends, are becoming more popular, which isn't ideal if you fancy a lie-in after a big night out – as you will miss out.<\/p>\n

Writer Natalie Reilly said she recently stayed at a hotel where the buffet breakfast hours were from "6am to 9am".<\/p>\n

She added: "\u00a0If I'm on holiday, I don't want to wake up at the crack of dawn so I can elbow out some tween for hash browns. <\/p>\n

"Maybe I want to sleep in until 2pm, wander down and order some poached eggs with a coffee at 3pm.<\/p>\n

"If it's included in my rate, I'm entitled to it aren't I?<\/p>\n

"I want to relax and go at my own pace. Isn\u2019t that what hotels are supposed to be all about? It\u2019s a resort, not a dorm room."<\/p>\n

She said the only other option is to order room service instead – which will also cost hundreds more over a holiday.<\/p>\n

Other ways guests try to get their money's worth from hotel buffets is to take some of the items for later.<\/p>\n

While this is often accepted, some hotels are cracking down on pastry stealers.<\/p>\n

One hotel boss in Australia told\u00a0Stuff NZ: \u201cWe\u2019ve caught quite a few guests wrapping up our scrumptious desserts and pastries in serviettes and sneaking them into their handbags for a snack later on.<\/p>\n

"We kindly request that they leave the buffet items where they belong \u2013 in their satisfied bellies."<\/p>\n

An etiquette expert said the best way to do it without getting in trouble is to not take too much, and to do it towards the end of the food service.<\/p>\n

If you want to save money, we've revealed how you can get breakfast from a 4* hotel for just \u00a33 – without having to stay there.<\/p>\n
