The 9 Most Over-the-Top, Boozy Breakfasts at Luxury Hotels Around the World

Breakfast isn’t just the most important meal of the day. At some hotels, it’s also the most expensive. For example, the Baccarat Hotel New York’s famous Eggs & Caviar breakfast—which includes 30 grams of Petrossian Royal Caviar—will set you back $240. If you want to wash it down with a half bottle of Krug, you’ll have to shell out another $200. Meanwhile over at the Selman Marrakech, where Sunday brunch starts at $161 and dancing Arabian stallions entertain diners, guests get their bubbles from a woman wearing a dress covered in flutes filled with Champagne. And these aren’t the only two properties putting cereal to shame. From floating breakfasts served in private pools to a roving oyster cart and an ostrich egg dish that can feed an entire family, here are nine of the most over-the-top hotel breakfasts around the world.

Endless oysters, caviar and crepes

The oysters and caviar at Ibiza Gran Hotel aren’t self-serve, but the cart they’re on is roving, so it’s easy to get seconds. There’s also a mimosa cart that moves around the room, and a continental buffet with DOP cured meats and a wider variety of bread and pastries than you’ll find at a bakery. Pro tip: save room for the chocolate fondue. Breakfast at Ibiza Gran Hotel starts at $82 and is limited only by your appetite for caviar.

A buoyant buffet

Forget breakfast in bed. For $192, Guests at Coco Bodu Hithi can begin their day with a buoyant buffet served in their private plunge pool. The generous spread, served on a water-friendly tray, includes tropical fruits, an assortment of cheeses, yogurt, a basket of bread and pastries, tropical fruits, egg dishes, freshly-squeezed juices, coffee, tea and champagne. And while the Maldives is a Muslim country, like many resorts catering to the tastebuds of tourists, Coco Bodu Hithi does serve bacon.

The ostrich egg platter that broke the internet

For just $125, you can feed a family of three on Pendry San Diego’s enormous ostrich egg platter that went viral when it debuted on the property’s breakfast menu five seasons ago. Only served on the weekends durng spring, this Insta-worthy ensemble comes with bacon, pesto potatoes, toasted sourdough and roasted red salsa.

A 16-foot-tall tower of cheese

Unless you’re lactose-intolerant or you don’t do dairy, you’ll probably love breakfast at The Chedi Andermatt in Andermatt, Switzerland. It’s included in the nightly rate (from $650) and features an assortment of cheeses from the property’s 16-foot-high glass-enclosed cheese tower. Worried about the temp of your brie? Don’t be. The cheese tower is climate-controlled.

Bloody Mary’s and bone-in ribeye

Meanwhile, highlights of the bougie brunch at The Americano at InterContinental Buckhead Atlanta include a roving Bloody Mary cart and a bone-in ribeye board served alongside swanky sides like lobster and caviar. This $300-plus breakfast is only available on Sundays, and if you want access to the “Grande Seafood Tower” you’ll have to pay market price.

Bottomless bubbles and pampered pets

Even four-legged family members get five-star food and service at San Ysidro Ranch in Montecito, California. While Fido is polishing off a pile of peanut butter and bacon pancakes, you can savor the flavor of lemon ricotta pancakes made with Meyer lemons from the ranch’s citrus grove. Staying over the weekend? Pair the free-flowing Bellini’s and G.H. Mumm Prosecco with the ranch’s popular buttermilk fried chicken and waffles. Breakfast is included in the nightly rate starting at $2,495.

90 minutes of pure luxury

Every second counts during Sky Brunch ($179 per person) at Shangri-La The Shard, London. That’s because you only have 90 minutes of unlimited Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label Champagne. All you have to do is down a bottle every 30 minutes for the meal to pay for itself. The Sky Brunch, which is only served on the weekends, is on the 34th floor and has sweeping views of London landmarks.

Lobster a la saltwater lagoon

For many travelers, breakfast is the focal point of the “Float into Paradise package” (rates from $462 per night) at Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort in Port Douglas, Australia. Why? Not just becauce it includes a costly crustacean. It’s because breakfast—which can also include coconut acai bowls—is served on a wicker tray in the resort’s saltwater lagoons. Naturally, the dress code is casual: Think bikinis and budgie smugglers.

Mimosas all day, every day

Guests of residences at The Loren at Pink Beach in Bermuda start their day with a food-forward tour of the world, prepared by a private chef. Feast on international delicacies, an assortment of caviar and nine different styles of bacon including maple-glazed, hoisin and jerk. The breakfast, which is $150 per person, also comes with unlimited mimosas (made with the champagne of your choice) through happy hour.
