London to Venice is only one night on the train. Although a lot of Americans would seem to disagree, there is really no need to shower every single day... The carriages are more of an old-world luxury experience: the cabin that my spouse and I stayed in had incredibly intricate, hand-inlayed wood and lacquer decoration, for example. If you're expecting a shower and a high-def LCD television etc. then no, that is not what you're getting. The service, which is the item that really is the distinguishing factor in luxury travel, was superior. The one part that was a let-down on the journey is that you have to switch to a coach (admittedly a nice one) for the actual crossing of the English Channel via the tunnel.
