I honestly wouldn't know because they clean that shit up at 9:30.

Pretty much every hotel without “inn” in the name has at least reconstituted egg foam, bacon, and sausage.

You forgot the waffle/ pancake machine.

That would be a continental breakfast. What's shown in the picture is closer to an English breakfast

I went to a 3-star hotel that was also doing this. Their free breakfast also includes eggs that came from a carton.

I think good hotel breakfast peaks at the middle of the price curve.

I stayed at a La Quinta by Portland airport and they had pancakes, Belgian waffle machines with butter and syrup, biscuits, bacon, eggs, cereal, fruit, juice... For a $115 a night room.

I've stayed at the Four Seasons in Chicago and they had bread and juice.

I travel a lot for work, and this is my experience in and around Germany (even for small, family owned, 10 bedroom hotels):

• 3 kinds of bread rolls
• 2 types of bread to cut by yourself
• Also soft, crustless, white bread (aka toast)
• Butter and 3 kinds of cream cheese
• 4-10 types of cheese
• 4-8 types of cold cut meats
• 3 jams/jellies
• Honey
• Nutella
• Liver pâté
• Scrambled or boiled egg
• 1 type fried sausage
• 1-3 types of Müsli (cereal mix with oats and nuts or fruits)
• 2-3 types of box cereal (the sweet kind like fruit loops)
• Yoghurt plain and fruit-flavoured
• Quark dessert
• Canned fruit mix
• Fresh fruit
• Croissants or muffins or Madeleines
• optional waffles or pancakes

For drinks:

• Orange juice
• Multivitamin juice
• Coffee
• Hot water bar with 3-12 types of tea

4-5 star hotels in Europe tend to serve quality food in a decent tableware.
