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.

The Azur in Queenstown, New Zealand, has a lot to like about it before we even get into the views: it's the #1 hotel in Queenstown on TripAdvisor, it's luxurious and exclusive with just nine rooms, and you can get a gorgeous lakeside villa (although it'll usually cost you more than $1000 a night).

And then there's the view. Shaolo/Paolo dropped this picture in the HotelChatter/Flickr photo pool and we're grateful for it. Who wouldn't want a vacation with a chance of views like this all day? This picture's worth a few hundred words at least, so we won't say anything more.
