OP is happy to pay the difference but he got a shock as the hotel provided an internal bill that separates hotel in-house departmental revenue division. That ends up with €28 for breakfast instead of €13 he was quoted.

I don't think OP would have booked this rate if he was told in advance that the room rate had a portion of revenue would go to hotel food and beverage department that was larger than the price quoted.
Post #12 - all good for him or her because the hotel rebranded the breakfast charge. And he was never quoted a breakfast charge but a charge for a room with breakfast. But just take. The abstract advice. If the OP were to charge the “business package” to his employer this would be fraud and (if he were taxable in Germany) tax fraud. I do not know the an anonymous OP and have no intention to blame him (could not care less) but just pointing to the legal situation.
