BED AND BREAK FAST

What is the meaning of bed and breakfast? You hear this term everywhere in the Hospitality industry, but what is bed and breakfast. If I was not in the industry I would say breakfast in bed, but is it breakfast in bed. First you have to get up and open the door (now you out of the bed). Second brash your teeth and wash the face. It no longer qualifies to be breakfast in bed. Room service says that I will bring you breakfast in bed, but again you have to open the door and be out of bed.

The known definition of Bed and breakfast may refer to the fact that you get to sleep and eat in the morning. So when they refer to it as bed and breakfast it simply means you can eat breakfast there maybe in bed or out of bed the choice is yours.
There was this other lady who made an example during the tourism stakeholder engagement meeting that when she on a holiday requested breakfast in bed, but she was irritated because she had to get up and open the door which to her it was no longer breakfast in bed, but breakfast in the room cause she was out of the bed”
Interesting maybe bed and breakfast should be something like breakfast in bed where by the attended just use the extra key to open the door to get in without knocking. IS IT A BE DISASTER OR SERVICE EXCELLNCE. Share how you would like your breakfast in bed.
