London has the worst hotels in the civilized world. If you don't have a place to stay for the Olympics, don't bother with it. stay at home and watch them on the telly.

@nisegaijin: What on earth are you taking about? I don't think the moderator will let us advertise here, but I can think of several great hotels in London I have stayed at over the last few years.

I think each country has its fair share. London does have the Ritz, Savvoy, amongst others - not a disaster! Boutique hotels are booming there now. Biggest let down for me was the Waldorf Astoria in NY - borrowing largely on its name, not much in the way of substance sadly.
