The worst hotel room view I’ve had was almost at the Park Hyatt Paris, that too as someone with published top tier status in its loyalty program at the time. It was runner up to a room with no windows at some mid-market hotel in Stockholm and also to a room at some US Hilton Garden Inn with the view of a multi-level cement car park where the car lights would shine through the lousy curtains of the room.

I've stayed in rooms with no windows in two hotels; one was a Hyatt in downtown Minneapolis. (I believe it was called the Hyatt Whitney; I believe it was in an old grain processing facility. It was my first Hyatt ever.) But I'm not sure that having no windows makes a room's view worse than some of the pictures I've seen in this thread.

Egads, that's dreary - why does Columbus always look so cloudy and grey? It was like that when I was there the last time, too.

Apparently this is my reward for 45 nights this year at the Hyatt Place Knoxville. I’m pretty sure this is the single worst room in the hotel.

Doubletree Edinburgh Airport Dec 2022

Hi,

My humble entry for Crappy views from my hotel room ( Doubletree Edinburgh airport Dec 2022)- only stayed for 1 night




view from rm 148

Tram line in the distance


View from Rm 148 of the Living well swimming pool area ( part of the hotel)

Some renovation work going on in the hotel as the corridor close to my room was being renovated ( did not bother me as there was no noise at the weekend ( stayed a saturday night only) -price for the hotel was a bit high but got a HH Milestone bonus






regards

Chose the room as it it is at the end of the corridor so no noise ( no construction at the weekend) and it is a short overnight stay. lights on top of the fence were on all night and shone through the sides of the curtains ( had eyeshades) .Foundations for 30 new rooms in progress


From Rm 148 Doubletree Edinburgh airport 28th Jan

This is iconically bad.
