Whatever effect they were trying to produce by strangely slanting the windows on the building's face is beyond me, and is only outdone in the weirdness department by the golf ball dome thing out front, which stays permanently locked and is only there for the sake of odd decoration. I completely disagree with that assessment for two reasons: one, the Grand Lisboa looks fabulous and two, Lan Kwai Fong is easily the ugliest hotel in town and it's not close.
The Wizard once told me that the Grand Lisboa was named one of the ten worst looking hotels in the world by some magazine a few months back.
