If you have never been to London, more than likely you have heard that the “food is terrible” especially in a London Hotel Restaurant. Well I’m here to tell you that nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, London is a world-class city and some of the best meals I have ever had were enjoyed there! And since I’m a New Yorker, that’s saying something!
B&B London is an interesting type of stay – not quite a small hotel and certainly not a quaint little bed and breakfast either.

When I first heard that London would host the 2012 Olympics, I was shocked. I couldn’t imagine where they would put it and after the Millenium Dome fiasco, I was sure it wouldn’t succeed. Now, I have to admit that I am sure I was wrong. No one can put on a show like the Brits. They will more than likely go over the projected (and increased) 9 billion-pound budget but I’ve no doubt they’ll win it back in the end. So the next question is where will they put all the new hotel rooms and which ones will be the type of hotel you will want to stay in?
