I know what you mean. A couple of weeks ago I was at the Marriott Rive Gauche in Paris and the lounge was filled with Americans. I felt like I was in "any big city USA", and hated it.

By contrast, I also stayed at the Hilton Arc de Triomphe as well, and chatted at length with a couple from Nigeria and a salesman from Delhi, and absolutely loved it.
