Is this the mother of all misleading hotel photos?

November 4, 2008

x5ljciodc5o8yhf9zin7.jpgHit the thumbnail photo on the right to see what is allegedly the same small Polish hotel from two different angles.

I was ready to call a Photoshop job on this when Gadling first posted it, but if you take a look at the hotel (the Alicja in Lodz, Poland) on Google Maps it really does seem to be right by a power plant.

So... is this picture for real? Convinced?

If so, it's surely one of the most extreme cases of brochure/reality slippage out there. Anyone know the Polish for Watchdog?
