I would assume that you're merely flamebaiting, except that you are so consistently parochial and narrowminded in your posts that I begin to believe you really think like that. If that's the case, I pity you.

Oakvillian, save your pity, for God's Sake you live in Oakville, that's a large enough cross to bear.
I travelled on a very generous corporate expense account, I stayed and ate at very nice places, English Restaurants and hotels were the worst of , there are no comparisons with those on Continental Europe, none, $400a night and so small, if you wanted to change your mind you had to step out into the hall.
Nicest Hotel I stayed at in the UK was a little Edwardian style, a barrier gate had to be raised to let me in, Leicester Square ?
Rooms were not as nice as Paris, but it just had a certain ambiance, food wasn't great though.
Strassbourg is my most favourite, then Lyons.

moral of the story
Dont go stop in an English Hotel - especially when you are getting it for free on a very generous corporate account

I don't have any crosses to bear, thank you very much. You, however, do seem to be rather chippy about anything that's not in your immediate neighbourhood and of the same socio-economic grouping as yourself.

I have lived here for the last 10 years and there have been and still are wonderful restaurants, Quaglinos, Bluebird, The Ivy, OXO Towers, just to name a few of the ones around then and now.
I hope next time you visit you will be luckier in experiencing the better establishments both in London and elsewhere in the Cities around the country.
Sorry for the rant, but I just couldn't let people think that things are so bad here, there is the whole range from awful to amazing.
Whew, feels better now!
Rob.
