Lol I never got this.
Most continental breakfasts I've seen run from 6-9AM and I've always interpreted it as a sneaky tactic hotels use to usher guests quickly out the door given that standard checkout time is usually 11AM.
It's not sneaky, most would happily tell you it's a combination of that plus not wasting food for the few people who would normally meander out at the crack of noon
That and I think the people getting breakfast that early are on a business trip rather than on vacation
Honestly it's never worth it.
Maybe I'm in a fortunate position. But I have never been to a place where breakfast was as good as an average cafe.
From my experience: If Hotel A and Hotel B were pretty identical the same but for $20 more, you get all you can eat breakfast, don't bother. Just buy breakfast.
You clearly weren't paying enough. Some of those hotels are 200 a night minimum
I guess most normal people wake up pretty early, even on vacation.
A lot of people who are staying at those hotels and bothering with the continental breakfast are there for work, not vacation.
