YES, the views are different. Why did I not choose the full harbour view the second time I stayed there ? Well, the first time was enough and for the second time, I thought it was not worth the price difference. Is the full harbour view something you gotta experience once ? Well, yes. Is it worth a few nights' of premium ? Well, no. So my suggestion is, if you want to save some money, book the first night for full harbour view and the rest of the nights for part harbour view.

Alternatively, just walk out to the ocean of stars and experience the true full harbour view at 8 P.M. when the light show starts.
+1 Book first night same room type, better view, maybe you get to keep better view for remaing nights

In any 1 24hour day, just how long do you plan to sit looking out of the window? I take photos first visit from club lounge usually high floor, best view, or at rooftop pool areas.

I only want to pay extra to avoid being overlooked when otherwise room is overlooked by opposite highrises or rooms 5m away across hotels inner courtyard.
