I've never thought of myself as overly shy, but the second shot of the hotel room interior shows a bathtub in front of a curtainless window in front of the entrance to the ACC. I suppose it could make for some interesting competition for the outdoor jumbotron, but I certainly wouldn’t want my girlfriend using this washroom with 17,000 testosterone pumped hockey jocks walking past after a tense hockey game. :p
 
This does seem to be a growing trend in Toronto highrises. Here is a render of the interior of MuseumHouse:

Another bathtub in front of a large curtainless window. Shouldn't this room be in MuseumHouse's neighbour, Exhibit?

The glass bathroom/shower wall is a Germain "standard/feature" at their hotels....the wall is a double glass with blinds in between the panes of glass that can be open or closed at the whim/desire of the guest......if you and/or your girlfriend desire, the blinds can be closed for privacy/modesty ;)

definitely boutique....star ratings are seldom applied to boutique hotels as the point is for each one to be different while the "star system" is, essentially, a standardization rating.

Germains are very comfortable full service, unique-featured hotels.......great value actually (not cheap, but great value).
 
The rooms look fantastic! The peekaboo shower/tubs is Germain's trade mark. I'm a little disappointed by the colored lighting in the lobby, it's too W hotelish,

Funny you say that....it looks exactly like the W in New Orleans!
 
I like what I see, but I'm not sure about the art choice. Very fit guys working out above my bed just does not appeal to me. I can picture myself in bed with my girlfriend saying, "would you please keep your eyes on me!"

It's not standard here. I know for fact there are no blinds in between those panes of glass (at least the windows behind the sink that look on to Bremner)
