Hi LS

Here's my opinion:

The best and most natural word for the test sentence is 'opinion'.

That said, I'm also reluctant to say that the word 'view' is completely wrong. However, the word 'view' would be perhaps more typical in a phrase such as "in my view". And 'point of view' is typically preceded by the word 'from'.
