London for me - Novotel
I don't know why, probably because I love London, and probably because I like Novotel Hotels when traveling in Europe. I enjoy the breakfast buffet at Novotel. So:
#1) I enjoy the breakfast buffet at Novotel. It's just perfect.
#2) Fairmont Hotels breakfast buffet.
I think both are listed as "Continental" but they are a FAR cry from, say, the continental buffet at Comfort or similar hotels in the U.S.
