A lot of us can’t do too much right now. In Melbourne, Australia where I live, anything outside a 5km radius from our home is off-limits, and I’m sure a lot of you have at least some restrictions on your usual travel too, even if it’s just the inability to get in a real plane. One of the best things about travel in my opinion, and something we’re all deprived of, is that novel feeling of discovery when your eyes see something new for the first time and you’re reminded of how broad and diverse the world truly is.
That’s the feeling I got when I first saw this Guitar Hotel addon for Microsoft Flight Simulator, I definitely hadn’t seen it in any movies or heard about it before (probably because it completed construction last year, in 2019), but I lit up with excitement and intrigue. This is a great example of what the addon creator community is able to do, especially with the confinement of COVID - we’re able to use Flight Simulator to bring us to places that are out of reach. I hope that creators continue with their great efforts to bring us to foreign and exciting lands in a way that has never before been possible.
“Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, also known as "The Guitar Hotel", is a casino resort near Hollywood, Florida, United States. The iconic Guitar Hotel brings 638 luxury guestrooms and suites to the resort. Designed to resemble back-to-back guitars, complete with guitar faces and brightly lit strings, this engineering masterpiece reaches 450 feet into the sky, outfitted with floor-to-ceiling glass panes.
This hotel was completed in 2019 and can be seen from miles away, especially when on approach and departure from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (KFLL).”
