Heh.  Not scared.  Just happy that I don't have to navigate it myself!
My only requirements for a hotel are power, water, and clean TCP/IP.  Oh a 
soft bed often helps, but I'll take a matt on the floor rather than give 
up connectivity.

You guys are gonna scare poor Brian.  Remember, he has to STAY there.

Seriously, a few of the Sun folks stayed at the Churchill during FOSS.in and 
they found it to be fine...if a little far from the "center of town".

There is something seriously weird about the map, apart from the fact that 
it
purports to give "dirving directions"

From the looks of it, the hotel appears to be a stone's throw away from
Crescent road and Mallige Medical Center that I visit. And two stones 
throws
away from Hotel West End.

But the directions marked on the map on either side of the indicated 
location
of the hotel are crazy. The map is oriented with the top of the map
indicating South and the bottom is North.

The road leading North West (downwards and to the right) from the Hotel is
marked as "towards Bangalore railway station". That is wrong. Bangalore
station is near the top right corner of the map. And the road heading
Southeast (up and to the left) says "Towards Nrupathunga road" - a road 
that
enjoys the dual distinction of having the least pronounceable name in
Bangalore, as well as not being anywhere near the direction on the map. In
fact the map says towards "Nrupatuga" road - a name that does not exist.
