Definitely have a selection of affordable items, even it you have to offer them in little bites to keep costs down. I think $1 is a fine price point!
Personally, I'd be tempted by little truffle-type things, and would even be willing to pay a premium for attractively packaged small bundles. Something small-but-decadent would be a great little indulgence, and since they're just a bite or two, it would quickly leave my hands free to go back to browsing art.
You could also offer room party catering packs via pre-orders - some nice selection of your fave easy-to-make-in-bulk items, perhaps served up on aluminum trays, since they can be crunched down small for easy disposal in the hotel's recycling?
Love the idea of the con crud prevention pack! Heck, you could even do breakfast cookies with lots of nuts/fruit/oatmeal/whatever.
In general, I'd think the classic comfort foods (chocolate chip, oatmeal, brownies) would be the biggest sellers, with a few house specialties and special diet considerations.
Do you have any paper stores near you? The local restaurant supply stores 'round here do have some food serving items at decent prices, but I've found party stores and paper stores have even better deals on big packages of plastic sleeves/Chinese take-out containers/etc.
