Is the Ritz regarded as a pretty good hotel? My best mate thats been working in London for about a year now recently started working there.

I dont really know if thats good or not, he said its somewhere he has always wanted to work, didn't mean much to me as I'm not in the hotel business

Aye, that just about sums it up. Is certainly still one of the top hotels though.

I had lunch there, it's massively upper class. Like being in a 1950s royal period drama.
