Big cities are sometimes not the right place to hope for a hotel room with a good view. That's mostly because big cities are full of big buildings and there just ain't that many spots--unless you go up really high--to get a great view. So even San Francisco's Maxwell Hotel has let us down with this pretty unattractive view of rooftops, air conditioners and advertising.

In the past, the Personality Hotels group to which the Maxwell Hotel belongs has done a sweet deal on free parking and gas, so it's not all bad. Plus, the hotel offers room service from famous San Fran deli, Max's on the Square. Top it off with free WiFi and we're willing to close the blinds and enjoy our stay.

Our tip for a killer view in San Francisco is a room at the Hotel Vitale where you might be lucky enough to see the Golden Gate Bridge instead of a gray rooftop.
