as I have not been to all hotels all over the world.
So I’m limiting my viewpoint to hotels
we stayed with the best views.

My choices came form the hotels where we stayed

but unfortunately we stayed at the wrong side of the hotel
I’ve included hotels from Asian cities we visited
like Tokyo, Yokohama, Bali, Singapore, Hongkong,
Beijing, Kuala Lumpur Sydney, Bangkok and Ho Chi Minh City.

spectacular view of the city, but just like in Paris,
Also included are hotels from North American cities
like San Diego, Los Angeles, New York, Detriot, Minneapolis,
New Orleans, Boston, San Francisco, Denver, Seattle,
Las Vegas, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Washington DC and Toronto.

in the past that offer the best view from the window:

Imagine having a wrap around panoramic window
in your room and be surrounded by the
busy and chaotic cityscape that is Bangkok?
It is like your room is suspended on mid air

a great view of the San Diego’s Gas Lamp District,

I can never stop raving and praising this hotel.
It has Shagri-La like opulence and service

I cannot remember how many times we have been
to Singapore and stayed on various hotels in the city.
But the last time we were there was when we took
our loyal employees for a vacation and we stayed at the

The hotel though needs a little renovation

It is hard to separate these two hotels as they
look identical and the view is almost similar.
Shangri- La Mactan offers a great view
of the lush garden of the vast Visayan Sea…

said the lady at the front desk when we checked in.


Indeed, with a floor to ceiling panoramic windows,

Ironically, this hotel room was windowless
but the this hotel’s Aqua Rooms had the view
of the underwater world right in your bedside...
....that kept the kids entertained all day
and seem to never want to leave the room.

The best thing in the Oriental Hotel is that you are lulled
to sleep by the dazzling city lights at night...



...and you wake up in the morning with the indescribable
beauty of Mayon Volcano staring right at you

There are not enough words to describe
the beauty of the view from the widow of this hotel
and no picture could justify the elegance
