We are suckers for a room with a killer view.  We find that we are even more likely to forgive some minor hotel inconveniences if we can stare out the window at something pretty--yeah we are that shallow. Let's help out our fellow hotel mavens by uploading rooms with killer views to the HotelChatter/Flickr photo pool, or by sending the photo along to us. We will feature our favorites in this space from time to time. Remember to tell us the name of the hotel and the room number of the hot view.

To us, The Wickaninnish Inn in British Columbia is most famous for its storm watching packages but Flickr Member Lisa Stegall dropped this photo into the HotelChatter Flickr Pool, letting us know exactly what a stay at the fun-to-say Wickaninnish Inn is really like.

In her own words, Lisa writes:

The Wick, as it is called, is lovely. We stayed in the original building. The rooms were quite comfortable, the soaking tub, with a glass wall overlooking the surf (don't remember the room number, but we were on 3rd floor directly facing water, just above the restaurant) was a fantastic way to unwind with a nice glass of wine.

The dining was superb - great wine list at their award winning restaurant, The Pointe! While we didn't get big storms, we enjoyed quiet days of soft rain. This view shows the Inn at dusk from Chesterman Beach. The tide was out, so there were yards and yards of firm, wet sand to catch the buildings reflections.

Only caution: in low season (i.e., "storm season") many restaurants in Tofino are closed. We had fantastic meals, but several places we wanted to try were not open yet for the season.
