"Moevenpick Islamabad has the best view of any hotel in Islamabad. However, they have ruined the view by putting an advertisement on one entire facade of the building. Since that is the side that has the Classic and Deluxe rooms, most of those rooms have been sacrificed for some advertising revenue, unfortunately.
I had booked a Classic room and had to upgrade it to a Deluxe at the back of the building, just to get an unfettered view.
The staff seems to think the advertisement has no impact on the view, but in reality it has reduced the natural light into the rooms by at least 50%, plus if you wish to sit by the windows and look outside, you can see all the dots (pixels) that make up the ad, covering the entire window. It is not an unfettered view by any stretch of the imagination. It is quite annoying. I really request the hotel management to remove the ad and not ruin customer experience because of it.
Since I upgraded and requested to be moved to one of the very few rooms in the building without the ad on the window, I actually had a wonderful time at the hotel. The room was super comfortable and beautiful.
The staff at the reception, at the breakfast and from housekeeping were extremely warm and hospitable and took great care of me, and my every whim.
I also got sick one day, and the staff at breakfast went out of their way to make me food that would be good for my tummy, and even packing a few things that would keep my tummy stable during the day. 5 star in every way!
