Breakfast for hotel stay - No microwave. Junk food like honey buns are fine with me, what else?

People stay in hotels for all kinds of reasons, not just vacations.

We were at a hotel last night, for a sporting event this morning. The other family we were staying with showed up at our door this morning with fresh hot toast with honey and sliced banana for my athlete. So good!

I was surprised, because somehow it never occurred to me to bring a toaster on a trip. We drove, and we had room in the car, but somehow it just didn't cross my mind.

Next trip I take, I am absolutely bringing toast. Nice hot toast with pb and honey sounds perfect to me!

I would go out for breakfast if staying at a hotel.

I would eat the free breakfast if there was one, but I typically bring bagels and either peanut butter or veggie cream cheese if there's a fridge. I also bring my own OJ because I only like one kind. I take meds in the morning that I need to not take on an empty stomach so I always have something even if it's just a banana.

I bring a small cooler and transfer stuff to the room fridge if there is one or keep cold with hotel ice if there isn't one.

Regardless of stay length why wouldn’t you just go get breakfast?

I bring my own breakfast on business travel. I get a per diem. I can either buy a bag of granola and milk for less than $10 for the trip, or I can buy a less healthy hotel breakfast for $25 each day.

+1. Even a breakfast burrito from McDonald’s is better than vending machine food.

+1 Plus some fresh fruit/bananas are the easiest.

Surely there's a toaster? Avocado toast, Raisin toast, english muffins topped with cheese after toasted.

Shrug. Life is for living. Granola and milk in your hotel room is fine, but I’d rather have something hot and fresh and live a little.

Madeleines and/or biscotti. (Rodman’s or World Market if you plan to bring them with you). But I’m assuming decent coffee or tea.

I have never stayed in a hotel room that comes with a toaster.
