First off I would like to say that I am an American who has never lived in Europe, just visited on the cliche Eurail backpacking trip after I graduated from college. Also, I think that my thread title may be misleading, because I thought that most European cities that I saw were extremely beautiful and that it's too bad that your style didn't make it to the States in very many places.
Anyways, back on topic, my only experience with an unattractive city in Europe was in Athens, Greece. Not to upset anyone from there, as there are much uglier cities here in America, but it lacked the old world charm most of the places I visited had. Also, London wasn't the most charming city, but it also reminded me of New York City and had a very cosmopolitan vibe to it.
I am curious to see how you guys feel about other cities on your continent. Please share.
PS - Rome and Prague have got to be the most beautiful big cities Europe has to offer.
