As mentioned by other, what are the criteria for "Romatic Getaway", "Ski" etc?

It seems to have something with the wording. As far as one can consider the W Chicago Lakeshore at "Beach" property, the "Sheraton Munich Westpark" is at least from my experience not quite what I would consider as a "Romantic Getaway".

Anyway, it is nice to see that one can now (?) select all hotels and as far as I notice it seems to work.

However, I agree that the selection of available hotels was better (this is of course my subjetive imporession) with beat the timer and starpicks. From an European point of view, if would be nice to select by regions / continents (e.g. Europe, Mediterranean Sea, Asia, Carribean). It is much more helpful to see all hotel in Europe at once instead of typing each country. (The workaround provided by Oxon Flyer works for me, but should only be workaround).
