What hotel is this?

In the app, the first pic that loads for me, and stays for a second before moving on, is an Infiniti pool with a blue design on the bottom overlooking a lake with mountains in the background. Does anyone know which property this is?

one would think that a company would put that information in view so that the customer would be enticed to book there. that's the whole point of advertising/marketing, no?

I can see franchisees getting very uppity about how that property would be receiving an unfair advantage if they made it too obvious/easy.

Though I doubt that many people going to Manhattan, Kansas are going to book a trip to China just because they liked the picture of the hotel in the app

Oh, I called the diamond desk for that exact reason and emailed a screen shot to someone. No reply yet.

Actually I would.... if it took me somewhere towards my natural travels, I'd be all over it.

Can't be that. The current hilton.com homepage image happily tells you which hotel it is down the bottom.

By happy chance, I am going to be in Yunnan from August to December, so this would be a perfect weekend getaway place.

I tried searching a number of dates in August through October. No standard points availability.
