Germany
Hilton Bonn - Full buffet breakfast (no lounge) - outstanding buffet (cheeses, meats, smoked salmon, yogurts, cereals, breads, vegetables, fruit), as well as hot choices and made to order eggs, etc. Coffee and juice service at the table.
Hilton Koeln - Full buffet breakfast (no lounge) - outstanding buffet (cheeses, meats, smoked salmon, yogurts, cereals, breads, vegetables, fruit), as well as hot choices and made to order eggs, etc. Coffee and juice service at the table.
As a Diamond, 2 people per room was included. I've also been able to extend breakfast benefits to a non-status occupied second room.
(Not sure about Gold privs at either.)
I love German breakfast!

Ditto. Last couple of stays it wasn't even mentioned that breakfast should only have been continental (was on a non-breakfast rate).

First thread updated.
Will posters please kindly post if applicable and known whether the breakfast is in lounge or restaurant (or either), and if there is the facility to pay for full breakfast when it is not free, how much the cost it?

Continental breakfast in the executive lounge on a high floor (17th?). Actually very nice: cereals in little boxes, toast with jam in little jars, pastries, oatmeal with toppings, an assortment of fresh fruit including fresh berries, yogurt, juices, and best of all, an automatic espresso/coffee/cappuccino machine.
The lounge is a reasonable size, with free newspapers and areas where you can't quite hear the &$#@* television.
This is for Gold; I'm not sure what Diamonds get (full breakfast in the restaurant?)

"Arizona, Hilton Resort & Villas Scottsdale: full breakfast buffet in restaurant."
When did this change--only cold items when there recently (and the last few times before that).
The hot section is slightly extra.
Arizona, Hilton Conquistador Tucson--toast, pastries and yogurt basically but you can buy up to cold continental for fairly reasonable price and hot full buffet.
Arizona Squaw Peak--despicable excuse for continental breakfast--go to the "store" and pick items (juice and muffin basically).
Embassy Suites Scottsdale--lovely full buffet with everything on it and good quality.
