Room With an Anti-View: Lower Floors at the Keio Plaza Hotel, Tokyo
November 1, 2007 at 10:08 AM | 0 Comments
What a difference a room allocation can make. Not so long ago, we featured the Keio Plaza Tokyo as a hotel with a killer view over the night lights of Tokyo. But that picture came from an entirely different side of the hotel to this one, which we can only include as an anti-view.
Checked in to a lower floor and with a view of modern but boring gray buildings, there's nothing inspiring about the view from this particular Keio Plaza window. Please ask for a room higher up if you stay here; only not too high if you're feeling a little on the depressed side.

Room with a Killer View: The Keio Plaza Hotel

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.
Thanks to Flickr member Phonograffiti for dropping this Killer view from the Keio Plaza Hotel in Tokyo into the HotelChatter Flickr Pool.
We suggest you flip through the rest of Phonograffiti's pictures taken at the hotel where they have "super fluffy down blankets", "awesome" beds, and some interesting but delicious food.

White guys gone wild -- when will we learn?
Two "young Caucasian men" leapt to their deaths naked from the 47th floor of Tokyo's Keio Plaza Hotel in a suspected suicide pact, police told news.com.au correspondents.
"They were totally naked ... we are trying to establish their identities," police said.
