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.

Now that Design Hotels is now Design Hotels, Made by Originals, we're having a hard time coming up with witty one-liners about the hotel group — we tend to stumble over lots of syllables, so let's just get right to this week's Killer View: check out this awesome view from the Lanchid 19 Hotel in Budapest, a member of Design Hotels, Made by Originals (oh, alright; that wasn't so hard).

This property is located by the Danube riverbank, with only 45 rooms and three suites — all of which have a totally different look.

This shot was taken by Flickr member Erst-Jan Pfauth, who notes that the room had "a view on the famous Lanchid bridge and the Gresham palace (where the Four Seasons is)."

Rooms here start at 58 Euros and the website lists a few design highlights of interest:

a diver morphing into wavelets on the façade, archaeological remains of a water tower below stairs, overhead glass suspension bridges holding sandblasted fingertips, uniform made by award-winning Hungarian fashion designers on the hotel staff.

We're not sure what the "sandblasted fingertips" part means (lost in translation, maybe?) but this all sounds pretty sweet to us.
