Maybe the hotel has hot water somewhere? Like a coffee pot you can use? If they do then you could make oatmeal and cup o noodle.
OMG. I forget about electric kettles. Small ones. Let me go find a link. Here is a small 1 liter one on Amazon. Boils hot water in minutes. $10

There is also the dash mini griddle. Makes one egg it's so small. $12

I'd hide both of these items from house keeping, but they would get some hot food into you.
Edit: I was wrong in this one. Google says 2 hours only. so you'd need that ice bucket for the eggs. Raw unbroken eggs will keep unrefrigerated just fine for some days.
Yeah dude, it has a nifty little base that plugs into the wall. It only heats up when it's on the base but when you pick it up you're not dragging a cord around with you. And once it starts steaming enough it pops the shutoff. Amazon link, if anybody's interested.

Here's a mishmash of items that I really love having in my apartment:
That's not a stove top kettle. That's an electric kettle that you put on its base. https://www.amazon.com/DeLonghi-KBO1401R-Electric-Kettle/dp/B00CMFQBJ0
$63 kettle
Also, heads up on the plastic kettle, they're very harmful.
They exude massive amounts of estrogen, BPA and other harmful toxins.
Opt for a stainless steel or all glass kettle. They're so much nicer and the water tastes cleaner.
I just did a quick google search and came up with this: http://www.amazon.com/Electric-Samovar-Large-6lt-Capacity/dp/B005O16JEQ
If it is similar to that unit it is most certainly resistive load only and should work at approximately half power output when plugged into US 120v.
I have an electric kettle. Greatest thing ever. It might not boil as quickly as it does in Europe, but a couple liters of water will still boil faster than on the burner.
For those who are mildly confused about what an electric kettle is referring to:
If you have the money to fork out, this one is great.
Budget Kettle.
So basically you need one guy to clean floors, one to clean tables, and one to take orders.
That's pretty much the standard for an electric kettle in the UK, e.g.:
Russell Hobbs
Kenwood
Bosch
Philips
Here is my coffee setup. My inverter is so large because I also use an induction cooktop. You could get a 1kw inverter. I got pure sine wave. Not sure if it is needed for coffee equipment, it is for the cooktop.

UK here, I'm curious as to what you mean by a tea kettle. I have something similar to this which just boils water. Add this to your mug with a teabag and Bob's your uncle - TEA!
Also, Yorkshire Tea is the tastiest. It comes in bag form and is wonderful.
Electric kettle. I am partial to this one. It has a nicely designed base where it will sit on it with the handle pointing in any direction.
It's easily the most-used small appliance in our kitchen. We use it every morning for coffee, all the time for tea, oatmeal / hot cereal, boiling up water if you want to get crud off of a pan, whatever. You can even cook eggs in it (carefully; you put the raw eggs in and hit the button, it goes up to boil and then shuts off, and you let the eggs sit there for a few more minutes -- easy).
Due to the low US voltage it's not as fast to boil water as Euro 220V kettles but it's still amazingly convenient.
So let's talk physics and thermo dynamics... So the question is, will a smaller diameter brewkettle help keep the boil going? Will moving down to an 8gal kettle (which is the same size as the burner) solve the problem?
I started with a 5gal brew pot. Seems to work ok, but I still have concerns about topping off the wort with fresh out of the tap water to bring it to 5gals... I really want to do full 5gal boils.
After doing a bunch of reading here and homebrewtalk, I decided to skip the 8gal brew kettle and go right for the 10gal.
We're still brewing on the stove, it's a glass electric burner. Even on high, we needed the lid on to get the wort boiling. Once we'd take the lid off to stir it would lose the boil. (I have no idea what effect this would have on the beer... ^[1])
`<br /> <br /> Some numbers:<br /> <br />`` `
` `
` `
So according to my calculations, it looks like there's a whole 88"^2 that is not being heated, but is letting off heat when I have the lid off my 10gal BK.
My hypothesis is, by switching to a narrower BK, I'll be able to boil the 5gal consistently because I'm adding heat in the same surface area I'm letting it go... (clumsily explained by a non scientist... I'm sure there's better science words to describe what I'm trying to impart...)
Thoughts?
Is it possible that my stove just isn't powerful enough to boil 5gal?
If I get a propane burner, I can't use that indoors, right? That seems like a bad idea to me... but brewing outdoors seems so... dirty? Error prone? we get a lot of "cotton" (from the cottonwoods) flying around here...
I'm working my way towards all grain brewing... if I have a 10Gal HLT can I use a 8 gal mash tun? the 8 gal I picked specifically for the false bottom...
Altes Thema, hier trotzdem mein Senf:
Ich kann unseren Silva KL-1500 vorbehaltlos empfehlen. Damals gekauft weil billig, teile ich die negativen Bewertungen auf Amazon überhaupt nicht. Im Gegenteil, ich habe als uns einer durch Mitbewohner-Auszug abhanden kam verzweifelt nach dem gleichen Modell wieder gesucht (altes Modell: Kipphebel; neues Modell: Kippschalter), weil es anscheinend sonst fast nur Kocher mit so lächerlich kleinen friemeligen Deckeln gibt, die man erstens zweihändig aufzwängen und dann zweitens umständlich unter dem Wasserhahn einfädeln muss. Bei unserem genannten Silva-Modell hat man hinten eine Lasche für den Daumen, kann also den großen, den ganzen (!) Kochtopf bedeckenden Deckel einfach aufklappen während man den Kocher am Griff hält, und dann mühelos Wasser reinlaufen lassen. Das Ding ist recht Low-Tech, man kann deshalb sogar die Feder unter der Klappe leicht zusammenbiegen bzw. ganz entfernen, dann geht der Deckel noch leichter auf. Absolutes Pflichtfeature bei einem Wasserkocher, denn was macht man mit dem außer Wasser ausgießen und wieder reinfüllen! Das Ausgießen gestaltet sich auch einfach, durch Fehlen von umständlich geformten Ausgießsstutzen, Filtersieben o.ä., die bei schwungvollem Ausguss oft dazu führen dass der Wasserstrahl halb zurückgehalten wird, sich teilt, und dann erst oben überläuft. Hier kann man hingegen mit Schmackes rauskippen, wem's zu langsam geht, der kann dabei noch den Deckel leicht anheben (siehe oben, praktische Einhand-Klappbedienung), und hat damit den Gesamtinhalt in zwei bis drei Sekunden ohne Rumgetropfe zielsicher blitzentleert.
Muss dazusagen dass die Abschaltung beim Kochen wirklich etwas spät reagiert, aber für mich gabs dabei nie ein Problem weil ich beim Kochvorgang ohnehin meist in der Nähe des Kochers bin; sollte einen das stören, kann man sich vielleicht nach einem anderen Modell, aber mit ähnlich aufgebautem Deckel, umsehen.
Alternativ zu der ganzen Geschichte, und vor allem wenn man häufig Wasser braucht (Teetrinker etc.) und/oder feinere Einstellungsmöglichkeiten bezüglich der Wassertemperatur haben will, würde ich nicht bei den "Wasserkochern mit Einstellung und Teesieb" suchen (sind alle Mist), sondern mir einen Heißwasserspender holen, idealerweise einen von Zojirushi.
I got this one for my birthday and it works really well. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B005FQ2552/ref=mp_s_a_1_7?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1466789543&amp;sr=8-7&amp;pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&amp;keywords=krups+kettle&amp;dpPl=1&amp;dpID=41UGfWAZscL&amp;ref=plSrch
Now that I have some temperature control I actually like green tea lol
I need an iced tea maker
I am trying very hard to get healthier and part of that is giving up soda (regular and diet). One of my favorite things is plain, fresh brewed iced tea. No sweetener, nothing.
I bought the standard Hamilton Beach kettle with no gauge or anything about a year and a half ago,and that has been working without issue since then. I later bought the same brand but with temperature control and it has worked well for the about 6 months I've had it, but I find that it will generally overheat the water by about 5-10 degrees F (when set to below boiling obviously).
Right now I'm eyeing the Bonavita gooseneck kettle with temperature control as an upgrade, but if you want something cheap I would definitely say the basic Hamilton Beach is a good choice. Costco generally has it for I think cheaper than Amazon, so if you have access there I would take a look.
On a sidenote, I've been told it's better to start using a plain straight to boil kettle so you can get a better intuition for how you actually brew your tea, but I honestly just forget about my water too easily when I'm doing other things and making tea so the temperature control is good for me! Remember, you can always get a thermometer inexpensively, which is good to have around the kitchen anyway :D
