Room With an Anti-View: New Belgrade's Not As Nice as Old Belgrade

Where: Milentija Popovica 5, Belgrade, Yugoslavia, 11070

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.

Double thanks to intrepid traveler mhodges who's been busily dropping photos into our Flickr pool. This one is an anti-view from the Hyatt Regency Belgrade in Serbia.

Apparently the Hyatt in Belgrade also has rooms with views over the river and the old town area of Belgrade--this view looks to the "modern" architecture and chaos of new Belgrade, which seems to be lacking some charm. Graciously, though, mhodges did say that this Hyatt has fantastic service and beautiful rooms, so if you end up in a room on this side of the building it's obviously better to just close the curtains.

The bottom of the range king-size rooms come for €185 (US$280) over summer, or you could always go for the presidential suite (with a better view) for €1,505 (US$2,400).
