WRC Safari Rally: Everything you need to know

The notorious safari rally kenya, renowned as one of the toughest events in motorsport, marks the halfway point in the 2023 world rally championship this weekend..

The rally has prided itself on being one of the WRC’s jewel in the crown events given its difficulty to win. Its unique stages feature a mix of rough gravel and soft sandy roads sprawled across Kenya’s iconic wildlife-filled savannah. amid changeable weather, poses an altogether different challenge for crews.  

Last year’s Safari winner and reigning world champion, Kalle Rovanpera heads to Kenya with a 25-point lead at the top of the standings after finishing third at rain-affected Rally Sardinia earlier this month. 

His Toyota squad emerged as the team to beat in Africa 12 months ago, after scoring a dominant 1-2-3-4, but the Japanese marque is likely to face stronger opposition this year from the rapidly improving Hyundai and M-Sport-Ford.

Eight-time world champion Sebastien Ogier, who won the 2021 Safari, will factor in Toyota’s line-up alongside Elfyn Evans , who sits fourth in the championship and two-time Safari podium finisher Takamoto Katsuta .    

Heavy rain is expected to dominate proceedings in Kenya which could cause problems for the Toyota GR Yaris which struggled to navigate water crossings in Sardinia.  

Hyundai heads to Kenya off the back of its first victory of the season following Thierry Neuville ’s triumph in Sardinia, where the Belgian headed a Hyundai 1-2 with Esapekka Lappi in second. This weekend will be Lappi’s first taste of the Safari Rally.  

Hyundai faced several reliability concerns last year but if it can replicate its form in Italy, all three i20 Ns, including veteran Dani Sordo should be in contention for victory.

M-Sport-Ford will field three Pumas in Kenya as privateer Jourdan Serderidis rejoins the WRC team for the first time since Rally Mexico in March. 

Ott Tanak is set to lead the Ford team’s charge as he looks to reel in Rovanpera in the championship standings after an electrical fault on his Puma cost him valuable points in Sardinia. 

Team-mate Pierre-Louis Loubet has starred in rough rallies previously but this weekend marks his Safari debut.       

What is Safari Rally Kenya?

The Safari Rally was first held in 1953, as the East African Coronation Safari in Kenya, Uganda and Tanganyika as a celebration of the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II.

In 1960 it was renamed the East African Safari Rally and kept that name until 1974, when it became the Kenya Safari Rally.

Held on roads still open to the public, it became notorious as the toughest round of the WRC. Arduous conditions and constantly changing weather and more than 5000 competitive kilometres made simply finishing an achievement.

The event adopted a special stage format in 1996 and from then until 2002, it featured over 1000km of timed tests. The rally left the WRC in 2002 and returned in 2021 with a revised shorter format that remains one of the toughest challenges on the calendar.

Unlike other rounds on the calendar, crews are forbidden to test in the local area to prepare for the event.

Safari Rally Kenya winners 

The late Kenyan rally ace Shekhar Mehta and fellow compatriot Carl Tundo are the event’s most successful drivers, having scored five wins apiece.

Mehta scored his first in the Safari Rally’s first event on the WRC calendar in 1973 before taking four more wins from 1979-1982, while countryman Tundo's victories have come from editions held outside of the WRC schedule in 2004, 2009, 2011, 2012 and 2018.

During its run as a WRC event from 1973-2002, the 1979 world champion Bjorn Waldegard and four-time world title winner Juha Kankkunen scored four wins.

The Safari Rally was the scene of Colin McRae’s final WRC win in 2002. It was the 1995 world champion’s third Safari Rally triumph, alongside wins for Subaru in 1997 and Ford in 1999 and 2002.

PLUS: Remembering Colin McRae’s last WRC win

World champions Miki Biasion, Tommi Makinen and Richard Burns have all won the rally twice.

Toyota has dominated the rally since it returned to the WRC thanks to victories for Sebastien Ogier and Kalle Rovanpera in 2021 and 2022 respectively. Last year, the marque scored a stunning 1-2-3-4.

A total of 22 Kenyans will tackle their home round of the WRC, including WRC3 regular Hamza Anwar. 

How have the Rally1 cars changed for 2023

WRC teams have spent the off-season refining Rally1 machines ahead of a second season under the new hybrid rules.

Reigning champions Toyota have not stood still. The pronounced air boxes that adorned the flanks of the car to cool the hybrid unit have been replaced with a much smoother more aerodynamic design, as it was found the 2022 design overestimated the amount of cooling required for the hybrid unit This has resulted in a re-design of the rear fenders and arches. The rear wing has also been tweaked to compensate for the new aero package.

In addition to the aero changes, Toyota has elected to upgrade its 1.6-litre engine to improve the delivery of power and its torque.

Hyundai has also revealed noticeable changes to its aero on its i20 N. The 2023 car features updated bodywork to the front and rear of the car. The bonnet has been flattened and extended while the front arches have also been modified. The team has also opted for a heavily revised rear wing and wing mirrors.

The new look extended front end has turned the nose of the car into effectively an extra splitter. At the rear, a new rear wing has been designed with last year’s central wing and end plate option transformed into one continuous wing covering the maximum width of the car.

Ott Tänak, Martin Järveoja, M-Sport Ford World Rally Team Ford Puma Rally1

Meanwhile, M-Sport has unveiled a bold new look for its Puma Rally1 with an electric blue and pink livery, replacing its popular purple colours from last season. While the car looks similar to its 2022 model, the team plans to continue its development during the season.    

How does the Rally1 hybrid system work?

Drivers will have the use of hybrid power during every stage, with power boosts activated by the throttle pedal, while further boosts will be unlocked through energy regeneration under braking during stages.

Pilots will be required to regenerate 30 kilojoules of energy before another boost is granted that will be used the next time they touch the throttle pedal.

The extra 130 horsepower is delivered through the use of three bespoke homologated engine maps selected by teams, depending on the type of stage and conditions.

Determined by the FIA and event organisers, drivers will be required to navigate parts of road sections and around event service parks in full electric mode.

In full-electric mode, the car has a range of 20km, while its 3.9KWH battery, operating up to 750 volts, can be plugged in and recharged in the service park within 30 minutes. The hybrid unit can withstand an impact of 70G.

The cars are powered by a 100% sustainable fuel.

Testing reduction and other rule changes 

The sporting regulations have undergone a refresh with arguably the biggest change being a reduction in testing. 

WRC teams will only be permitted 21 test days (seven per driver) instead of the allotted 28 as per last season in bid to reduced costs and improve sustainability. Last year each manufacturer driver would complete a pre-event test day prior to all European rounds.

The move has prompted mixed views among teams and drivers.

Also new for this year, Rally1 drivers will be restricted to using a total of 28 tyres during an event. They will also be no longer handed an extra four tyres for use in shakedown. 

In Gravel rallies only, organisers have removed the 15 minutes service normally held before the start of each day. 

“By removing the morning service on gravel events and trimming the flexi-service window for P1 cars, we can reduce the working day by up to three hours, which will benefit team members but also the many volunteer officials, including scrutineers and service park marshals,” explained FIA rally director Andrew Wheatley.

The rigorous lessons learned in Citroën’s sole Safari

Denis Giraudet hanging out of a three-wheeled Xsara is well remembered, but what did Citroën take from the Safari in 2002?

Photography by McKlein Image Database

Words by David Evans , DirtFish Head of Media

The voice was familiar, but quite out of context. The voice was that of Björn Waldegård, three-time Safari Rally winner. It came complete with helicopter soundtrack.

The Swede was staring down from a couple of hundred feet at the alarming sight of a three-wheeling Citroën with the boot open and Denis Giraudet hanging out of the right-rear. Thomas Rådström’s #20 Xsara WRC was still some distance from service in Suswa. The radio in the French firm’s mission control tent crackled into life.

“The front-right is completely gone,” said Waldegård, with an unusual urgency to lilting Swedish tones. “Repeat. Front-right completely gone. You will need to change everything.”

Guy Fréquelin removed his trademark Aviators and rubbed his brow.

On the eve of his team’s first ever Safari Rally in 2002, the Frenchman had been quite clear on his approach.

We cannot win this rally. Our expectations? Zero Guy Fréquelin

“We are here for experience,” he told me. “We cannot win this rally. Our expectations?

Then Rådström had rather spoiled that by going second fastest on the first section in Kedong, raising expectations which looked to be dashed before Friday was done.

The irony of Citroën’s first ever African outing was that it turned out to be entirely unnecessary in terms of experience – the event never formed part of a Citroën season again.

Running a part-program in 2002, the Versailles team didn’t need to compete on the Safari. But technical director Jean-Claude Vaucard knew this place of old though. His thinking was simple: “If you’re ready for Africa, you’re ready for anywhere.”

Four years later, when the Xsara WRC bowed out of the world championship it had won 55% of the events it had started. Vaucard might have been onto something.

The Xsara's first win of 2002 came two rallies later with Sébastien Loeb

Rådström recovered from losing a wheel early on and a consistent pace through the weekend allied to a series of retirements helped haul him back up to what had looked like an unlikely podium. He was third. Two places ahead of a frustrated Sébastien Loeb.

The Achilles heel Africa unearthed on the Xsara WRC was the suspension. The dampers simply weren’t up to the sustained and constant pounding the Safari puts them through.

With just the 50-mile section from Seyabei to Kerrerie remaining Markko Märtin was 1m18s ahead. Loeb fancied turning fifth to fourth and pushed hard. At the mid-section, he was on target to pass the Estonian’s factory Focus RS WRC, only for the pace to slide away towards the finish.

What happened?

“The dampers,” he said. “Again, the dampers. I push and make some time and when I am ready to push some more, then I know I can’t because we will lose them.

“What can we do? It’s frustrating. I think we lost 18 minutes because of this problem – without that, maybe we can be second.”

Aviators back in place, Fréquelin smiled. Two top-five places for his two cars was a strong result on an event the team had come to with some trepidation.

More pertinently, he admitted that the Xsara WRC was really starting to show some pace on the gravel – something he saw as vital for attracting talent to the drivers’ seat for the following season.

How did that go?

Citroën started 2003 with Colin McRae, Carlos Sainz and an Alsatian who would win nine of the next 10 drivers’ championships.

The Safari Rally

Through the eyes of a subaru fan.

If you’re a Subaru/ Safari Rally fan the timeline officially starts in 1980 and ends in 2002. In this overview Subaru was being used as a rally car in the Safari, either by privateers or professional teams, Group N, Group A or WRC.

The Inmarsat Safari in 2002 was not only the last Safari after it’s 50 years of existance it was also the last one for the Subaru WRT as Subaru pulled out of the WRC in 2008.

As the Safari Rally got revived in 2020 and privateers still enter with older Group N Subaru’s, these years became interesting to follow. Select your favourite year from the overview and find all the information about the event you need!

The legendary Safari Rally in Kenya returns to the World Rally Championship this weekend after an 19-year hiatus. These photos from the Girardo & Co. Archive encapsulate why the African event holds a near-celestial status for rally lovers…

From 1973 to 2002, the Safari Rally in Kenya struck equal parts awe and fear in the courageous drivers who competed there. Impossibly long special stages, stifling dust, sweltering temperatures and craggy, near-unpassable terrain, all set against a breathtaking backdrop, combine to make one of motorsport’s greatest spectacles.

Amid organizational and financial issues, the Safari Rally lost its WRC status in 2003. And tragically, the African round remained off the calendar for 19 years. But finally, on Thursday of this week, the current crop of World Rally Championship drivers started the Safari Rally and got a taster of the event’s unique challenges for the very first time.In light of the event’s return to top-flight rallying, we took to the Girardo & Co. Archive to find 10 photos which capture the magic of this epic endurance marathon held in one of the world’s most beautiful countries. We hope you enjoy looking at the images as much as we did searching for them. Oh, and Godspeed to all the drivers taking part in Africa this weekend.

Richard Burns and his co-driver Robert Reid scrabble desperately to unbeach their stricken Peugeot 206 WRC during the 2002 edition of the Safari Rally, an endeavour which would ultimately prove fruitless. We actually sold this very car earlier this year – click here to find out more about it.Click here to buy this photo from the Girardo & Co. Archive.

For many, images just like this one of Alessandro Fiorio and Luigi Pirollo’s Lancia Delta Integrale absolutely caked in mud and with its additional spotlights ablaze back in 1990 are the first things that spring to mind when they think of the Safari Rally.Click here to buy this photo from the Girardo & Co. Archive.

The Ford Motor Company’s squadron of pilots are introduced to some of the local wildlife during a rest stop on 1999’s Safari Rally. Only in Kenya!Click here to buy this photo from the Girardo & Co. Archive.

Suspension raised to frankly comical heights, additional spotlights, snorkels snaking their way up the A pillars, spare wheels on the roof and enormous bull bars – if they’re to endure the toughest terrain on the WRC calendar, rally cars require a serious makeover for the Safari Rally. Here, the Kenyan drivers Shekhar Mehta and Rob Combes demonstrate why.Click here to buy this photo from the Girardo & Co. Archive.

For us here at Girardo & Co., nothing screams Safari Rally more than a Lancia 037 Rally, spotlights ablaze, spare wheel bungee-tied to the roof and Martini livery obscured by a thick coating of dust, going hell for leather ahead of a vast trailing plume of thick dust. Just perfect.Click here to buy this photo from the Girardo & Co. Archive.

Blissful oasis’ turn into treacherous hazards on Rally Safari – here, Alessandro Fiorio and Luigi Pirollo’s Lancia Delta Integrale takes a dip during the 1990 Rally Safari.Click here to buy this photo from the Girardo & Co. Archive.

They don’t call it the Safari Rally for nothing – if drivers didn’t encounter at least one of the ‘Big Five’ by the end of the rally, we imagine they would have been bitterly disappointed. After all, they’d travelled all that way to Africa! Vic Preston and John Lyall caught this brace of elephants from their Lancia 037 Rally back in 1984.Click here to buy this photo from the Girardo & Co. Archive.

Whether you’re cruising through central Rome during the Mille Miglia or traversing remote African plains at full speed, there’s something about motorsport which excites and unites people. Here, the filthy Toyota Celica Turbo of Didier Auriol and Bernard Occelli is cheered on at a railway crossing by frenzied locals, clearly loving the fact the World Rally Championship is in town.Click here to buy this photo from the Girardo & Co. Archive.

Few drivers relished the challenge of the East African terrain like Colin McRae. The Scot won the notoriously difficult event thrice, in 1997, ’99 and 2002. He and his longstanding co-driver Nicky Grist can be seen here tackling a jagged rocky special stage on their way to victory in 1999. To say the conditions were punishing on the cars is a serious understatement. Click here to buy this photo from the Girardo & Co. Archive. 

We couldn’t put this list together and not include a shot of our beloved ‘P8 WRC’, the Subaru Impreza WRC in which Colin McRae and Nicky Grist won the 1997 Safari Rally and which we’ve made Internet famous over the course of the last four years.Click here to buy this photo from the Girardo & Co. Archive.The photos in this feature are from the Girardo & Co. Archive, which is our new treasure trove of three-million motorsport images from the 1970s to the present day, all of which are available to purchase directly from the website. CLICK HERE to search the archive and buy photos online.

About Dinamo Elektrostal

Moscow’s Dinamo Elektrostal are gearing up for their fifth EHL season having frequently picked off impressive wins but have yet to top their particular group in their previous attempts.

They did get the best of arch rivals Dinamo Ak-Bars in both the Russian Cup and the Prometheus International tournament to show they are knocking on the door.

There has been a reasonable level of turnover from 2020 with Anton Noshin, Evgenii Mokrousov, Aleksei Godenkov and Ivan Zuikov joining the newly formed TsOP Moskomsport outfit. Danill Karagodin, Mikhail Nekludov and Ilya Larikov have all retired.

Their replacements are mostly youngsters with Dmitry Zheleznyakov, Aleksei Samylkin, Petr Agapov, Ilia Bartenev, Andrei Gribanov and Oleg Kulakov joining their line-up.

Traveller’s Cave Hotel

Goreme, Cappadocia, Turkey

• Full Review
• Particularly well presented Cappadocia-style building
• Located on hillside with panoramic views
• Spacious and well furnished terrace
• Nicely finished rooms with ample amenities
• Many rooms include fireplaces and whirlpool tubs
• Free Wi-Fi throughout
• Lacking a little in personal touch
• Uphill walk from town center

Bottom Line

The 21-room Traveller's Cave Hotel is one of the more smartly presented properties in Göreme, both inside and out, while retaining plenty of rustic charm. It's not a family-run hotel, so service tends more toward the professional than the personal touch, but staff are still on hand to help organize anything from balloon rides to airport transfers. Rooms are also nicely finished (some have fireplaces and whirlpool tubs), while the spacious, plush, panoramic terrace is a real highlight. The location up a steep hill means it won't be ideal for those with mobility concerns, but all things considered, rates are more than reasonable.

• Best Kid-Friendly Hotels in Cappadocia

Oyster Hotel Review

Well-presented, typically cappadocia-style small hotel with plenty of open space.

The Traveller's Cave Hotel is a particularly well presented example of the area's typical Cappadocia-style architecture of elegant archways, panoramic terraces, and grotto-like rooms chiseled out of the amorphous volcanic rock. Neat gardens with well tended lawns feature some of the best vistas over the stunning valley, while the property is scattered with ubiquitous terra-cotta potted plants and rustic, wooden furnishings for an authentic feel. Unlike most hotels in Göreme, however, the Traveller's Cave Hotel is not family-run but one of a small chain of lodgings in the area, so can lack a little of the homeyness that some others have in spades. The ambience is still welcoming with some cozy spots as well as some lovely wide open seating areas making for enough space for everyone to drink in the views. 

Perched on a hillside a 10-minute walk from Göreme town center

The location is perched on the hillside to the north of Göreme, about a 10-minute walk away from the town center. The impressive complex of rock-cut dwellings of the Open Air Museum is around 15 minutes away on foot and the ancient 11th-century El Nazar Church is around 20 minutes away. The hotel can organize free transportation to and from the nearby bus station, while also offering transfers to and from both Kayseri and Nevsehir Kapadokya airports (for a fee), which takes between an hour and an hour and a half.

Smartly finished rooms with plenty of in-room amenities including free Wi-Fi

The hotel has a total of 21 rooms, 17 of which are carved from the volcanic rock while the others have bare limestone walls. Rooms are particularly nicely finished, with comparatively clean lines and polished wooden floors while retaining a pleasant rustic feel with traditional furnishings and Turkish rugs. In-room amenities are impressive, and include free Wi-Fi, mini-fridges, tea and coffee facilities, and flat-screen TVs with satellite (and English-speaking) channels. Bathrooms are also better than most, many having hammam-style stone basins and whirlpool tubs, while many rooms also feature fireplaces.

Spacious and well-furnished panoramic terraces

The traditionally styled restaurant serves a free breakfast each morning which can be taken out on the spacious, well-furnished terraces with those wonderful panoramic views. Lunch and dinner are also available on request and drinks are served throughout the day. All the usual activities can be arranged through the hotel -- ballooning, quad-biking, horse-riding -- and bus station pick-ups (free) and airport transfers (charged) are also available.

TRAVELLER'S CAVE HOTEL - Updated 2024 (Goreme, Cappadocia, Turkey)

15 Best Cave Hotels in Cappadocia for 2024

Co-Founder of The Turkey Traveler. Globetrotter, Adventurer, and Frequent Traveler to Turkey!

This website uses affiliate links. For more information, click here .

Cappadocia is famous for its desert landscapes and unique cave dwellings. People have been living in caves here since as far back as the 7th century, and very little has changed.

Caves provide the ultimate protection from the blazing sun. The rock keeps the cool air in, and the hot air out, which makes for a comfortable sleeping environment.

But hold up, if you’re thinking that cave dwellings in Cappadocia are damp, dark caves with dripping water and stalagmites forming, you’d be highly mistaken. In fact, many of them have been converted into hotels, from cozy budget hotels to high-end luxury hotels.

Staying in a cave hotel in Cappadocia is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and one of the best ways to truly appreciate the uniqueness of the area. But which are the best cave hotels in Cappadocia? We’ve picked out 15 of the best of the best.

At A Glance: Top 3 Picks!

If you need a place to stay but don’t have a lot of time, don’t worry. Here are our top three recommendations for cave hotels in Cappadocia.

Best Cave Hotel in Goreme – Charming Cave Hotel

Best Luxury Cave Hotel – Doda Artisanal Cave Hotel

Best Budget Cave Hotel – Diadem Guest House & Hostel

Don’t Miss Out on the BEST Experience in Cappadocia!

No trip to Cappadocia is complete without taking an epic hot air balloon flight at sunrise!

Make sure you reserve your tour well in advance to avoid missing out or paying any additional fees last minute!

Best Cave Hotels in Cappadocia Comparrison

Best area to stay in cappadocia.

If it’s your first time in Cappadocia and you’re not sure where to stay , allow us to introduce you to the neighborhoods. Many people think Cappadocia is a city, but it’s actually a region comprised of several different towns, villages, and cities. Where you stay will largely depend on what you want to get out of your trip.

Where to Stay for First Time Visitors: Goreme

If it’s your first time in Cappadocia, Goreme is the best place to stay. It’s centrally located to many of the main attractions and within walking distance to Pigeon Valley , Love Valley , Red and Rose Valley, and many of the other popular Cappadocian hiking trails .

It’s also accessible to many of the landmarks in the region by public transport, as the Avanos to Nebisher bus runs through here.

Goreme is a small town but it’s thriving with tourists. You’ll find many places to stay here from high-end luxury to budget hostels.

Where to Stay for Couples: Uchisar

Uchisar is famous for Uchisar Castle and is the highest point of Cappadocia. It’s located just a 5-minute drive from Goreme, so if you’re looking to stay somewhere quiet but still be close to the action, this is a good choice.

Uchisar is small and tends to have more luxury accommodation options here. It also has some of the best restaurants in Cappadocia, which is why it’s our top pick for where to stay for couples.

Where to Stay for Families: Cavusin

Cavusin is another small village that’s similar to Uchisar in that it’s historic and surrounded by cave dwellings. It’s also within walking distance of Red Valley and Rose Valley, and it’s also easy to get to Goreme and Avanos by bus.

It has a few lively restaurants but it’s much quieter than Goreme, and consequently off the backpacker’s trail, which makes it an ideal place to stay for a family holiday in Turkey .

Where to Stay for Seclusion: Urgup

Urgup is not a popular choice for places to stay in Cappadocia, but it should be. It’s similar in size to Goreme and is full of amazing accommodation options and restaurants, but it’s not easy to get to many of the attractions in Cappadocia without a car.

Because you do need to rent a car if you’re staying in Urgup, many people prefer to stay in Goreme where there are better transport links. However, if you prefer to stay off the beaten path and don’t mind driving, then this is the ideal place to stay.

Where to Stay for a Short Visit: Nevşehir

If you don’t have long to spend in Cappadocia, you’ll probably want to stay near the airport . There are four cities in Cappadocia, but Nevşehir is the main one people stay in as it’s where the airport is located.

Even though it’s a city, is not that big and is just as stunning as the small towns in Cappadocia. You’ll find plenty of cave hotels in Nevishir and the red and green tour , and blue tour , all pick up from this area.

The location was so great. We loved waking up to see balloons from our window and from breakfast. Breakfast was great, with a good selection. Their coffee was great too. The hotel is so nice and the room was big enough for a family of five. Parking is limited but we always found a spot.

The interior designing. felt like an actual cave and the amenities

The structure was amazing like living in caves, I believe that in entire Cappadocia, the rock type formation age volcanos was carved to make it habitable…and it’s exceptional. It has a terrace to have 360deg view..it’s lovely.

Very nice hotel. Comfortable. Right in the center. Breakfast. Staff. Beautiful view from terrace

TRAVELLER'S CAVE HOTEL - Now R 2 747 (Was R̶ ̶4̶ ̶7̶8̶8̶) - UPDATED 2024 Reviews & Price Comparison (Goreme, Türkiye) - Tripadvisor

Revealed: The World's BEST Hotel Breakfasts

Posted: April 19, 2024 | Last updated: April 19, 2024

What a way to start the day

There's nothing quite like waking up on vacation to a delicious morning meal you haven't had to cook yourself. This is our love letter to hotel breakfasts around the world – whose offerings tantalize travelers with flavors that not only satisfy, but tell stories of the places they're in. Featuring everything from sweet semolina pancakes in Marrakech to savory full English platters in the Cotswolds, this list is bound to make even freshly fed bellies rumble. 

Our selections are based on genuine user reviews, awards and accolades, and the first-hand experience of our team. They're also regularly checked and updated.

El Avenida Palace Hotel, Barcelona, Spain

Barcelona’s El Avenida Palace Hotel has been a key player in the city’s hospitality industry for more than 65 years and the venue’s traditional beauty still remains. This extends to the timeless appeal of its classic continental breakfast, which offers a wide variety of cold components as well as hot plates of bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs and mushrooms. Guests can add breakfast to their bill for around $16 per person when booking direct.

Andersen Boutique Hotel, Copenhagen, Denmark

You’ll find the Andersen Hotel in buzzing Vesterbro, the former meat-packing district of Copenhagen. Its organic breakfast buffet is included in your room rate and comprises a thoughtful selection of milks for your cereal and hot drinks, various breads, eggs, pastries and cold cuts, cheese, fresh fruit and yogurt. It's fuss-free, light yet hearty and delightfully hygge: perfect to set you up for a day of cycling and sightseeing around the city.

The Diwa Club by Alila, Majorda, India

The Diwa Club is a beautiful resort in India's southern Goa region, surrounded by rice fields and just a stone’s throw from the beach. There are two on-site restaurants serving up complimentary breakfast for guests: Bistro runs an all-day breakfast between 7am and 7pm, ensuring that those indulging in a lie-in don’t miss out on the goods. VIVO is buffet-style, with additional a la carte options influenced by the cuisines of Europe and Asia.

Auberge du Jeu de Paume, Chantilly, France

Set within the grounds of an opulent château, Auberge du Jeu de Paume unsurprisingly delivers a breakfast fit for royalty. You have to pay extra for the privilege, but when previous visitors consistently rave about the breakfast, something makes us think it’s worth the splurge. It's a decadent continental buffet affair, covering all the usual suspects that can either be enjoyed in the comfort of your room, on the private terrace of your suite or in the hotel’s marble-floored restaurant.

Mühle Schluchsee, Schluchsee, Germany

With its Black Forest location and cozy wooden cottages, Mühle Schluchsee is an idyllic retreat in the Germanic countryside whose ethos revolves around nature, food and sustainability. Breakfast in their restaurant is included as standard when you book a room, or you can pay an extra $5.50 per day to receive it in bed. Choose from an array of freshly prepared fruit, breads, pastries, meat, cheese, cereals, juices and eggs cooked however you desire them.

Yokohama Bay Sheraton Hotel and Towers, Yokohama, Japan

In Japan’s second-largest city, The Sheraton Yokohama Bay provides breakfast for its guests at an extra cost. This allows you plenty of choice though, as there are three different breakfast spots within the hotel. The main option is Compass, an all-day dining restaurant with a global buffet of seasonal salads, pastries, cloud-like omelets and unlimited combinations. They also offer a Kanagawa breakfast, placing a spotlight on dishes and ingredients eaten traditionally across the prefecture. If you’re in a hurry, grab a drink and a quick bite at Seawind coffee house or Dorer bakery.

Esplanade Hotel, Zagreb, Croatia

The Esplanade Zagreb Hotel blends Art Deco details with broader contemporary design – a winning combination which has been seducing travelers for almost a hundred years. Their top-tier breakfast (not included in the standard room rate but can be added for a fee) is an abundant buffet with several a la carte dishes also offered, showcasing a generous choice of local produce and Croatian specialties alongside crowd-pleasers such as eggs Benedict, French toast and pancakes with Nutella.

The Connaught, London, England, UK

Located just a short stroll from Hyde Park in swanky Mayfair, The Connaught is definitely a product of its environment, with sumptuous suites, elegant interiors and a breakfast to match. Whether you eat in bed or in the Jean-Georges dining room, dishes range from light bircher muesli and matcha chia bowls to fluffy pancakes, flaky pastries and avocado on granary toast. A full English is available for around $32, with truffle scrambled eggs setting you back somewhere in the region of $46.

The Greenwich Hotel, New York City, New York, USA

The Greenwich Hotel is in NYC’s Tribeca neighborhood, just a few blocks away from Little Italy. It offers a pool, spa facilities and a breakfast-inclusive rate which gives guests the opportunity to sample food provided by the hotel’s own restaurant Locanda Verde. Depending on the season, guests can enjoy their meal either in an open-air courtyard area or in the charming drawing room bar, with a lovely range of options such as a frittata caprese, organic oatmeal with poached apricot and pistachio, lemon ricotta pancakes and smoked salmon bagels.

Grand Hyatt, Berlin, Germany

Conveniently positioned for exploring the cosmopolitan charm of Potsdamer Platz, the Grand Hyatt Berlin is a 5-star hotel with a spa overlooking the city skyline. While not included in the room rate as standard, the additional cost for breakfast seems justified when you see just how much there is to choose from at the buffet. Served at the on-site Vox Restaurant between 7am and 11am (12pm on weekends), pamper yourself with plates full of bread, croissants, cured meats, assorted fruit, omelets and other cooked treats which can also be delivered to your room.

QT Gold Coast, Surfers Paradise, Queensland, Australia

Across the way from Australia’s famed Surfers Paradise Beach, the QT Gold Coast is a design hotel made for sun-worshippers and watersports enthusiasts looking for the ideal base. Breakfast is an optional extra here, but should be an experience you try at least once during your stay. Served at the hotel’s Bazaar dining concept, a food-market-style space with a global buffet, guests can pick up everything from pancakes, waffles and cronuts to wooden boards piled high with crispy bacon and sausages.

Sugar Beach Viceroy Resort, Val des Pitons, St Lucia

Nestled between spiked mountains, verdant rainforest and the unfathomably blue Caribbean Sea, Sugar Beach is a lavish resort where you can upgrade to an all-inclusive package to get all of your meals, including breakfast, thrown in. Morning meals are served at The Terrace, where the outdoor dining area promises tropical breezes accompanied by a great spread at the restaurant’s continental breakfast buffet. Guests are invited to also sample items like huevos rancheros, Belgian waffles and poached eggs with Creole sauce from the a la carte menu.

Koza Cave Hotel, Göreme, Turkey

Sometimes a great breakfast is more than just the sum of its ingredients. At the family-run Koza Cave Hotel, it is the owners’ hospitality and commitment to preparing all of their dishes from scratch that make breakfasts here a truly memorable experience. Everything is included in your room rate and freshly made each morning, with Turkish specialties served alongside cheese, fruit, cereals and fresh orange juice. Early birds will also want to head to the hotel terrace before breakfast, which provides one of the best views of Göreme’s otherworldly landscapes at sunrise.

Akademie Street Boutique Hotel, Franschhoek, South Africa

Franschhoek may be renowned for its fine wines, but rumor has it that the breakfasts in town are pretty top-drawer too – especially at the Akademie Street Boutique Hotel. There's no added cost, making this perhaps the chicest bed and breakfast going. Guests are led into the property’s tranquil orangery where a luxuriously wholesome offering of seasonal fruit, home-roasted granola, pastries and yogurt awaits, as well as a plentiful choice of cooked dishes that can be washed down with a coffee, a smoothie or even a glass of Champagne.

The St. Regis Resort, Vommuli Island, Maldives

Few of us will be fortunate enough to visit somewhere like The St. Regis Maldives Vommuli Resort in our lifetime, with its private lagoon, butler service, Ayurvedic spa and overwater villas. But dreaming is free, so let’s pretend for a moment. Breakfast (which is also free for paying guests) is presented at the resort’s signature poolside restaurant Alba. Its elevated takes on traditional favorites include poached egg with orange hollandaise and black truffle and a lobster omelet with crab and caviar. You can even opt for a floating breakfast, complete with tropical fruits and bubbly.

The Dylan, Amsterdam, Netherlands

Situated in the Nine Streets district on the Keizersgract canal, The Dylan Amsterdam really embodies the laid-back character and understated splendor of this gorgeous city. Breakfast doesn’t come with your room booking, but is still worth considering while you’re there. Treat yourself to breakfast in bed or wander down to Bar Brasserie OCCO, where the menu starts small with overnight oats, coconut oatmeal and avocado sandwiches before revealing belly-busting alternatives like Norwegian eggs (smoked salmon and poached egg with hollandaise sauce on brioche) and a full English.

The Double Red Duke, Clanfield, England, UK

The Double Red Duke in the Cotswolds village of Clanfield hasn’t even been open a whole year yet, but its William Morris-inspired wallpaper and big-flavored food have already garnered something of a reputation. A self-serve breakfast is included in your room rate so expect bowls of granola and muesli, hunks of sourdough, homemade preserves and fresh fruit. But the real magic lies in the a la carte menu, which packs a massive punch. Try the breakfast muffin with its richly seasoned sausage patty, gooey egg and oozing Ogleshield cheese or the smoked haddock omelet for something super special.

Anantara The Palm Resort, Dubai, UAE

As the name would suggest, Anantara The Palm resides on the Palm Jumeirah, a man-made archipelago off the coast of Dubai. The possibilities are multiple when it comes to breakfast, which comes included with a bed and breakfast rate booking. Crescendo, with its fusion of international and regional cuisine, is the resort’s primary all-day dining spot and go-to for many guests at breakfast time. But there is also Helios, a Mediterranean-inspired waterside restaurant and Revo Café, which has an extensive morning menu offering filled croissant sandwiches, acai bowls and more egg dishes than you could try in a single week.

Samsara Ubud, Bali, Indonesia

Bali is the motherland of the famous floating breakfast, where pool-dwellers can indulge in a delicious morning spread without even having to reach for their towel. The Samsara Ubud presents theirs in a crescent-shaped boat filled with sweet pastries, cakes, fresh jungle fruit and yogurt. Indonesian nasi uduk (steamed rice cooked in coconut milk), French toast and lobster eggs Benedict are also options. Those who prefer a static meal are more than welcome to dine at a table and breakfast is included with your villa booking.

Le Bristol, Paris, France

Paris is for (food) lovers and at Le Bristol, a luxury hotel in the 8th arrondissement, there are two potential places to try a particularly exquisite breakfast. Epicure, the hotel’s three Michelin-starred restaurant, is all about quintessential Parisian indulgence: think Champagne and soft-boiled eggs with caviar. A more modest affair awaits at Café Antonia, which offers a continental breakfast, an American breakfast, fresh fruit salad, eggs cooked to your preference, Viennoiserie, cheese plates, pain perdu and so much more. Needless to say, this all comes at an additional cost.

Casa San Agustin, Cartagena, Colombia

Tucked within the old town of this UNESCO World Heritage City, the Casa San Agustin is Cartagena’s most beautiful boutique hotel. Breakfast is included in the standard room rate, and is consistently described by guests as excellent. It’s served in the hotel’s on-site restaurant, Alma, which is lauded for its attention to detail, amazing staff and Colombian flavors. Breakfast usually consists of rainbow-colored tropical fruit, fresh bread and pastries, arepas and calentado (rice and beans topped with fried eggs). Plus, there’s even a complimentary mimosa bar!.

El Fenn, Marrakech, Morocco

Located within the city’s bustling medina, El Fenn is a hotel and art boutique made up of several interconnected riads. The colorful and calm oasis it provides is also home to some of the finest food in Marrakech. Breakfast is covered in the standard rate for overnight guests and is taken on the hotel’s terrace, which overlooks the Atlas Mountains. Highlights of the menu include shakshuka, msemen (Moroccan semolina pancakes served with butter or honey) and avocado toast with radishes that’s almost too pretty to be eaten.

Iberostar Parque Central, Havana, Cuba

The Iberostar Parque Central is set across a pair of historic buildings with rooftop pools and wonderful views across Havana. Running with the theme of two, there is also a duo of restaurants within the hotel where breakfast is served daily. In Restaurant Habana Elegante, you’ll find a buffet breakfast offering both international and Cuban fare. Over at the Mediterranean Restaurant, inspiration is taken from the local cuisine and given a continental European twist. Book on a bed and breakfast or half-board basis to ensure you don’t miss out.

Pan Pacific, Singapore

At Pan Pacific Singapore on the Marina Bay, be sure to choose the Great Escape with Breakfast package which includes daily breakfast for up to two adults. Served buffet-style at Edge restaurant, it features an assortment of fruit, cereals, charcuterie and cheeses, as well as traditional elements of Western-style cooked breakfast. There are many local options to taste as well, such as congee (rice oatmeal), nasi lemak (a Singaporean dish of coconut rice, chicken rendang and sambal eggs) and baked dim sum. Coffees, cakes and pastries are served at the hotel’s Pacific Marketplace too.

Sandals Royal Bahamian, Nassau, Bahamas

As is typical of the Sandals brand, the Royal Bahamian is an all-inclusive, adults-only resort where all your meals are taken care of. Breakfast is available at three exclusive restaurants, each with their own individual focus. There is Kanoo specializing in pan-Caribbean dishes, Italian-influenced Tesoro and La Plume, which offers a la carte items like French toast with banana, rum and orange, steak and eggs, omelets, fresh fruit juice and patisserie baskets. Room service can also bring breakfast to you if you’d rather stay in your pajamas.

Hotel Palazzo Zichy, Budapest, Hungary

Hotel Palazzo Zichy is housed within a beautifully preserved neo-Baroque palace, whose ornate staircases and twinkling chandeliers immediately allow arriving guests to know they’ll be very well looked after during their stay. A fabulous breakfast is covered in the room cost with certain rates and packages. The array of varied, delicious produce on display includes myriad fruit and vegetables, cheeses, cured meats, sausage and smoked salmon, eggs and baked goods. For a bit of interactive fun, you can also squeeze your own fresh orange juice.

Chatrium Hotel Riverside, Bangkok, Thailand

The Chatrium Hotel Riverside proclaims itself to be the very best luxury hotel in Bangkok and, if their breakfast is anything to go by, they could well be right. It can be added to your check for a reasonable extra fee and can be enjoyed at either the River Barge Restaurant or in the Lobby Lounge. The selection is enormous, evolving from European and American-style meals to a local breakfast, which incorporates a dim sum basket, a choice of either congee moo (rice oatmeal with ground pork) or khao phad goong (shrimp fried rice) and Thai condiments.

Traders Hotel, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

With unencumbered views of the Petronas Towers, Traders Hotel is already a popular choice amongst city-breakers before they’re even made aware of its foodie credentials. Gobo Chit Chat is the on-site restaurant where a buffet breakfast (not included as standard) is served, covering everything from pancakes and waffles to Southeast Asian options such as mi goreng mamak (a spiced noodle dish) and roti canai (flatbread). Those looking for a takeout breakfast can also visit On The Go, where they can pick up pastries, muesli or an egg and avocado sandwich alongside their morning coffee.

Park Plaza Westminster Bridge, London, England, UK

To be one of the best hotel breakfast in the business, you really need to master the holy trinity: a plentiful selection, quality ingredients and exceptional service. The Park Plaza Westminster Bridge, which sits across the River Thames from Big Ben, has this down to a fine art. Guests waxing lyrical about the lovely staff and the diverse menu choice. There’s not only a continental buffet to wrap your chops around, but several cooking stations offering pancakes, omelets and waffles, as well as a team of friendly chefs ready to make your eggs to order.

Hotel Artemide, Rome, Italy

Set in the heart of the Eternal City, Hotel Artemide provides comfortable accommodation for travelers looking for the perfect balance of classical architecture and contemporary styling. Before spending a day pounding the cobbles of Rome, a good feed is essential. Rooms at the Artemide are available with a bed and breakfast rate – and you won’t regret paying for it. The breakfast experience here is, by all accounts, amazing. Geared quite heavily towards the sweet of tooth, guests can help themselves to Sicilian cannoli, tiramisu and crêpes Suzette, among many other sugary delights as well as savory ones.
