Speaking as an Englishman working over the pond...

Internet Access from nearly every hotel *I* stay at Stateside generally fast
and FREE (I love that word)... the only weird thing is that all the
reasonably priced hotels I stay at (normally Hampton Inn, Hiltons,
Doubletree sort of thing) have a FREE internet connection and yet when I'm
forced to stay in a more up-market hotel they then feel they can charge for
internet access... very strange...

In the UK however, charging for Internet Access is more widely accepted for
(probably) every hotel I ever stay in. Bandwidth seems to always feel
tighter - I talk to a couple of colleagues fairly frequently with Skype
Video and we nearly always have problems if they are in a hotel...

So the trick when travelling is to get an unlimited internet access plan on
your Blackberry [insert-name-of-your-mobile-device-here]... plug it into
your laptop and piggyback off that... simple.

Bring back Fawlty Towers, thats what I say!
