My experience in Paris (in 1999) was that the subway was easy to use, though it was a bit odiferous in some locations. For the most part, I found the people to be surprisingly accomodating of people like myself who know very little French.
That said, London would also be a very fun and interesting place to have an event, for many of the same reasons as Paris, and as you say, communication would be easier in London. There are even a few UK teams, aren't there?
