Sorry did not manage to follow second para.
That's my point.

Even if two products are called First or 5 stars can be extremely different. The quality depends mostly on the price, not on being called First or 5 star. These hotels are targeting very different kinds of customers: one that is willing to pay ~£500 or ~£200. The price is precisely what is very different between those hotels (in general) as is between BA and many other carriers that offer better First products. My point is BA First is —generally— cheaper than many of these carriers. In a few words: you get what you pay for.
