The Glastonbury Hotel seems to leave guests with mixed feelings when it comes to breakfast services or rather, the lack of them. A noticeable absence of dining facilities for breakfast or lunch is a consistent point of feedback. Many reviews highlight the non-availability of breakfast, noting that no food is offered at all within the hotel premises. Some guests were surprised by this absence, especially since breakfast services were not reinstated even after reductions in COVID-19 restrictions. While the lack of breakfast options might be factored into the lower room rates, it remains a disappointment for those expecting morning meals included in their stay. Guests are instead left to explore nearby restaurants to satisfy their breakfast needs. Although the location of the hotel is appreciated, the unanimous sentiment is that having breakfast services available would greatly enhance the overall guest experience.
