    I don't suppose the Don Boutique Hotel in Montevideo was built on a huge scale, but the facade is very eye-catching and appears to dominate the landscape. Does it remind you of a battle ship? or perhaps planes' wings?

    A ship for sure Helen. It is in the Cuidad Vieja (Old City) so a lot of the surrounding buildings are this height or lower. Also it is behind the Mercado del Puerto (Port Market) so the nautical theme is very appropriate.
