"No Breakfast" Rate

I have a night booked on a sale rate at the Dublin Airport Hilton (a misnomer if ever there was one). The rate details include "no breakfast". it is no big deal as I can get some food in the lounge when I get to the airport. But I wondered if that means that the normal diamond benefit of a full breakfast at that hotel is disapplied? Does anyone have any experience of this?

Sorry if this has been already discussed. I did not succeed in a search.

As a Diamond you will have full breakfast. I believe the no breakfast rate is for non Honors, blue and silver members. Gold and Diamond get full breakfast at this property regardless the rate.

Thank you. Google was clearly not my friend when I did a search. Moderators feel free to merge or lock this thread.

I stayed there in January on a 'no breakfast' rate. As HH Gold I received an expansive buffet breakfast for two gratis; the honeycomb was a nice touch. Gold also gets you the shuttle to the airport at no cost for both of us, even though only one of us was Gold...no question was asked when I flashed a single Gold card on my phone.

Music in the bar on a sunday night was loud and energetic....don't expect a quiet dinner! ;-)

I'm a Diamond and stayed at the Dublin Airport in June. Prior to booking I called central toll free number to ask and response was as Diamond - no problem you'll get breakfast. Anyways I booked and stayed there and had no problem and didn't ask. At check-in I was thanked for my loyalty and advised when and where breakfast would be served. I did this at several hotels in Europe over the summer.
