Room with an Anti-View: Landmark Mandarin Oriental

Where: 15 Queen's Road Central, Hong Kong, China

You know the scene. You open the door to your brand new hotel room, run over to the window, open the blinds and bam, you are hit with the anti-view. Maybe you are looking down a dirty alley, witnessing a drug deal, staring at an air shaft in the face, or seeing a brick wall. Whatever you are viewing it is not extremely pleasurable. Help out your fellow hotel mavens by uploading your anti-views to the HotelChatter/Flickr photo pool, or by sending the photo along to us. Remember to tell us the name of the hotel and the room number with the not-so-easy-on-the-eyes view.

This is a first in Anti-View history where we have a Killer room with an Anti-View.

This shot was taken at the pricey Landmark Mandarin Oriental in Hong Kong. Still, no amount of money can change the fact that this hotel rises up amongst sky-scraping office buidlings. As one guest says:

Rooms were all soundproofed, could hear a bit of traffic but absolutely no view as the hotel was on the 1st 15 floors of Edinburgh Tower so it was surrounded by office blocks. Not very private when blinds are drawn, but a bit dinghy if you don't, so this was one draw back about the hotel if you prefer light and airy spaces.

Probably a good call on drawing those drapes because we learned that office workers can see you...all of you.
