While the New York Times may have been a bit late to the boutique hotels party, they also managed to totally overlook the fact that boutique hotel chains have utilized the web to market their brands in new and innovative ways.
The latest boutique chain to impress us with their web-savviness? Kimpton. The Kimpton Flickr page features cool tags, descriptive captions with links to each property's homepage and excellent photos of different aspects of all of their properties. Some of the photos even have rollover notes to explain the different features of the pic you're checking out.
Hotel chains (and Bill Marriott) that cater to Flickr geeks like us will always have a special place in our hearts. Cute dog, too.

We are looking forward to throwing even more linkage toward talented photographers and folks that get great shots of hotels, and we are constantly submitting our own photos to the pool.
Just go here and join our group. Then, on any photos you want to send in, click "Send to group" in the toolbar underneath the title. Select "HotelChatter" and your excellent photos will be dripping with pool goodness.
We are especially looking to expand our Killer Views and Anti-Views. Remember to tag the photo with the hotel name and let us in on the room number if you want consideration for hotel view photo publication.
Besides, how else are we going to know whether or not hotels are photoshopping their brochureware photos.
