Few places do this anymore, it's more common in the south which is insanely hot at mid day

In my experience it is quite normal in Madrid, which does get blazingly hot in the summer but is pretty okay the rest of the year.

Depends on what you're looking at. If it's public-facing, then, yes, but only because demand at those times is very low.

Otherwise, for office work, lunch breaks are short. European style.
