Hotel Breakfasts

This is a basic guide on Breakfast in your hotel before you go out and take on New Zealand

Express Breakfast - tea, coffee toast jams etc - approx $7

Continental Breakfast - Choice of juices, tea, coffee, cereals, fresh fruit, yoghurts, toast, jams, croissants, Danish pastries and muffins. - Anywhere between $10 & $15

Full cooked Breakfast - Here you can choose from any of the above and then also the hot traditional cooked dishes available (eggs, bacon, hash browns, sausages, tomatoes and mushrooms) which more often than not are served in a buffet style, self service. Not many places these days, maybe a few smaller ones cook to order. Expect around $ 15 - $25 depending on grade of hotel.

Some hotels do eggs cooked to order; also pancakes are very popular and often offered.

Hotels do not expect you to eat in their restaurants here and you are most definitely free to try anything else nearby. In the main centres this is a good idea, you will find cheaper options in local cafes etc. If you are staying close to city centres there will be plenty of choice.
