The World's Coolest Hotel Rooms
Filed under: Luxury Travel & Hotels, Books

Condé Nast Traveler's popular "Room With a View" column has been compiled into a beautiful new book from Assouline. Culled from the highlights of the column's 20 years chronicling the world's most fabulous hotel rooms, the Room With a View book features the very best "frame-worthy vistas" to be found anywhere on Earth. 160 breathtaking sights from beaches in Bali to Asia's bustling metropolises to African savannahs "teeming with wildlife rather than nightlife" are lavishly portrayed within. Standouts include the bathtub vista from the Royal Park's Urban Spa room in Japan's 971 foot-high Yokohama Landmark Tower, and Room 609 at Badrutt's Palace Hotel, the perfect box seat for the Cartier Snow Polo World Cup played on the frozen Lake of St. Moritz below.
