Well I suppose I am going to Coventry on Friday, so it's a fair cop.
Nice landscape, or so I'm led to believe, and seeing as you mention it the Helvetians do have a lovely line in design and typography.

Ummmmmmm, there's the hotel bar which definitely serves food of some sort. I think there's a restaurant upstairs - or failing that there's one in the casino. They're all basically awful, though.
On the plus side, there's a statue of Jimmy Hill outside.
Give my regards to the Nailcote. They were always rather nice there - for Midland types. And I've got very, very drunk in that little bar many times.
