Finding a Room with a View
Splendor. You’re into it.
Great pyramids. Majestic waterfalls. Resplendent sunbathers.
But deep in your soul, you’ve always wished it wasn’t so much work to track it down.
Introducing
The Most Perfect View, a new site that finds the world’s greatest views and the hotel
rooms that overlook them, online now.
Take every great vacation story you’ve ever heard, every guidebook you’ve ever seen and every
National Geographic–worthy, impossibly panoramic vista shot ever snapped and roll them into
something useful—and you’ve got this site, which helps you see it all from the delirious,
high-thread-count laziness of a hotel room.
It’s simple. Choose a part of the world—say South America—and they’ll give you a list of hotels with
rooms that gawk at the Chilean Atacama or the Uruguayan coastline. You’ll read a little bit about the
room—what you can expect to see and do (in case you have any ridiculous ideas about
leaving the
room)—and book it. Cut to a few months later. You’re staring breathlessly off of Punta del Este,
cataloging rare sea creatures, eating dinner
and dessert truffles, and entertaining a couple new
friends who speak a sultry blend of Spanish and Portuguese.
It was gracious of you to let them partake in the view.
