Condenast Room with a View

ASSOULINE’S newest tome, Condé Nast Traveler Room with a View offers a global exploration of the world’s most stunning hotels and resorts and the most breathtaking views taken from the interior of their rooms. Each page offers a vista of the world’s wonders – natural and manmade, spiritual and sensual. In each image, photographers have captured transporting views, presented the perfect spots to observe ethereal horizons, glittering urban skylines, and truly, everything in between. You can go ahead and book these rooms (and suites, cabanas, bungalows, tents and more). Or, you can simply sit back and enjoy the view. Either way, bon voyage!
