Hotel food always sucks. I was in Corfu last summer. There were plenty of great local restaurants.

Not true actually, there are many hotels with excellent food. There is a hotel not far from me where a lot of people go to their restaurant even if they aren't staying at the hotel, it's just a really good restaurant in it's own right.

I've also been on holiday where we had excellent breakfast options in the hotel, even the ones included were very good. You just need to check for those when selecting a hotel. I've definitely had worse meal in some restaurants than I've had in some hotels, there's plenty of overlap there.

Because we didn't do our research, we ended up at a hotel in Mallorca that were filled with people in their 20s partying all night and the included food fitted the price, for instance one night they served thin slices of meat-ish-spam with overcooked greens.

But we didn't let it ruin our holiday!
