Holiday Inn, Sports Center, Denver
It’s been awhile since we stayed in a Holiday Inn and we’re not sure if they still let their properties choose generic cards like this. The front as you see could be from anywhere, but the reverse of the two unused cards we have gives details of the unit at the Denver Sports Center. Grades: 1
-

Harbour Grand Hotel (Hong Kong)
Issued by the hotel, but they don’t seem to want to show themselves. Side note: Hong Kong’s hotel names are confusing, and if you eliminate “Harbour,” “Garden,” “Grand,” and “Plaza” from the mix, you’re left with very little. Three unused cards are available. Grades: 1
-
Sheraton Hong Kong Hotel and Towers
This hotel, in Kowloon, is a real survivor. Still very popular, it has one of the best locations. And no, we don’t have any connection with it. Unused 4-3/4″ x 7-1/8″ postcard from 2010. Grade: 1

This is primarily an advertising card, more or less fully pre-printed on the reverse so it would be difficult but not impossible to mail as a postcard.

Fess Parker’s Wine Country Inn & Spa, Los Olivos (California)

Venetian Macao Resort Hotel (Macau) (in folio)
This folio of 12 unused cards shows a majority of dusk or night scenes, and some might say this is when Macau with its many casinos and restored city centre looks its best. The Venetian stands out for its sheer size. NOTE: it only appears on one card, and you are buying the entire folio. Grade: 1
-
Royal Garden Hotel, Guilin (PR China)
Unused card. Grade: 1
