Fairmont Le Chteau Frontinac
Had a turret room, so three views! One was taken during the day due to light pollution from lights on the hotel.
City view looking northeast-ish
City view looking at the port facing east-ish
River view during the day.

And yyz_atc_lj, I loved seeing the picture of the balcony at Alam Indah, as I stay at their sister hotel, Alam Jiwah. I might need to branch out next time I am in Ubud.

Conrad Istanbul on Christmas Day
Ok, not technically the Hotel Room, but close enough; and no window reflections to deal with. The view from the Executive Lounge Terrace.

We'll most definitely see at least 15 returning guests (pairs, to be exact), and I would most confidently say that this isn't a "single, ready & looking to mingle" type of place. Everyone is "attached", so to speak, but % of good looking people is VERY high.And here's a photo from Park Hyatt Vendome, where I'm currently staying:

This is an AMAZING capture. Well, well done! The silhouettes, the lighting the shadows... spectacular image.
This upcoming summer will be a 4th year in a row we'll be visiting. As a couple We'll most definitely see at least 15 returning guests (pairs, to be exact), and I would most confidently say that this isn't a "single, ready & looking to mingle" type of place.

This series is utterly jaw-droppingly beautiful. Just wow!
Seeing this photo I'm increasing my camera-shopping budget RIGHT NOW. My stab at this scene (from street level) with a now all-but-defunct Canon A620 resulted in nothing but blur.
Such inspiring images in this thread!
