AC Hotel Breakfast Switcharoo
Good people of flyertalk.
I'm staying at a AC Hotel in Spain right now, and on checkin they offered a reduced rate breakfast if I only get coffee and bread items, i.e. no meat and eggs. So the next morning we go and do that, and the hotel charges us the full price of the breakfast buffet rather than the reduced rate. Any success in arguing this? The reason they gave for charging me the higher rate (which is the most expensive meal I've had on this trip... I'm in a cheap area) is because I didn't ask for the coffee and bread breakfast. Of course the breakfast queen didn't come out until we were halfway done eating, and provide us the higher rate. This of course really annoys me because I could walk outside for a few minutes and get the same meal for about 3 euros. For what its worth I'm lifetime gold.
