The '''Ocean View Hotel''' is a hotel | The '''Ocean View Hotel''' is a hotel in [[Ocean Drive]] in [[Ocean Beach]], [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]] in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]]. The hotel is most prominently featured in GTA Vice City as the player's first [[Safehouses in GTA Vice City|safehouse]] in the game. | ||
== Description == | |||
Available from the start in GTA Vice City after "[[Introduction (GTA VC)|In the beginning...]]", the Ocean View Hotel is a green, white and yellow Art Deco hotel facing the eastern beachfront of Ocean Beach. The hotel boasts an interior (featured only in GTA Vice City) that includes a detailed lobby level, as well as the stairway and hallway leading to the player's suite upstairs. The suite itself is quintessentially 1980s in design, with artsy furnishing and light colors. | |||
In GTA Vice City, the hotel serves various purposes: | |||
* Basically, players can save games in the hotel; while the player is assumed to reside in the suite, the save point is actually located at the reception counter of the lobby. | |||
* Players can change to their default [[Clothing in GTA Vice City|"Street" clothing]] using a clothing icon inside the suite. | |||
* Various weapons attained by collecting [[Hidden Packages|hidden packages]] will spawn along the hallway and within the hotel suite. These include [[Body Armor|body armor]] (10 packages), a [[chainsaw]] (20 packages), a [[Python|Colt Python]] (30 packages), a [[flamethrower]] (40 packages), a [[PSG-1|PSG-1 laser scope sniper rifle]] (50 packages), a [[minigun]] (60 packages) and a [[Rocket Launcher|rocket launcher]] (70 packages). | |||
The hotel as a structure still exists in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]] and has seen visually refined, as are with many Ocean Drive buildings in the game. However, the hotel lacks the "Ocean View" sign, and features green and yellow as its primary exterior colors. | |||
The design of the hotel is partially influenced by [http://www.travelpod.com/travel-photo/solteron/guaterica_04-05/1102872000/mia_clev.jpg/tpod.html The Clevelander Hotel] in Miami. The in-game depiction simply widens the facade of the hotel, resulting in a hotel design that appears larger. | |||
