Quick S/Lodge question

[michc]

Hi,

Have just been told by a friend that a few years ago they had to pay each day for a cooked breakfast in the hotel restaurant..... does anyone know if this is still true ?

Also, does anyone know if you have to book if you want to eat in the hotel restaurant at night ? Is the food here ok for a fussy 5yr old ie he does not like chips !

Finally, does anyone know if you can hire kettles and/or hair dryers at reception or do I need to take my own - if so how much ?

Thanks

Michelle

Continental breakfast at your hotel is included in your booking, you pay extra for cooked breakfasts. I don't have the prices for SL but at the NBC last year an "American Platter", scrambled eggs, sausages, bacon, potatoes and grilled tomato was 6 euros 20 cents, "Scrambled egg Platter" was 4 euros 50 cents.
The bookable at extra charge character breakfasts have a hot selection included, I have to say we're not overly fussed on the hot selection the sausages are spicy, the potatoes are garlicy, and the bacon is salty, I personally find it a bit much in the morning and am happy to stick with the cold selection which is very, very good. On our first visit I anticipated a coffee and a croissant, but there's a large buffet of rolls, cold meats and cheeses, bread for toast, jams, marmalades, yoghurts, croissants and pain au chocolates, cereals and fruit salad, orange juice and coffee.

The childrens menu up to 11 years from SL's Beaver Creek Tavern in March this year was
Starter Buffet (very large selection)
1 Main course choice of beefburger steak, Mickey Pizza, roast chicken leg, battered fish, pasta with bolognaise sauce, chicken escalope with ham and cheese.
Main course accompaniements - choice of Green beans, french fies, wild rice, roasted tomato, mushrooms, sauteed potatoes.
Dessert buffet again a large selection
Drink
Surprise ? DS didn't get one, I've only just noticed that on the menu.
Price - 12 euros
For children 6 months to 3 years there is another menu @ 7 euros which includes beaker, bib and souvenir spoon and for children under 6 months a selection of Nestle baby food is provided free of charge.

I believe it's advisable to book, although once again it's dependant on the time you want to eat, I telephoned at about 8.00pm and got a table a 8.30pm during our last visit and the hotel was completely full during that stay, probably I wouldn't have been so lucky at 6.00pm.

You can hire kettles and hairdryers at reception, but I always take my own and it's not listed in the hotel leaflet sorry, I'm sure somebody else will know.

Hairdryers, kettles and Irons are available free of charge.

i think it depends on which reasturant your allocated, there was no option of cooked brekkie in the one we were in.
