The line between hotels and galleries continues to blur as the hospitality industry embraces art for both its visual and cultural impact. This is manifesting in hotels investing in impressive pieces as well as collaborating on a deeper level with museums and other cultural institutions to offer guests greater access to both global and local artistic talent.

The Gallery/Hotel Hybrid

Artful Collabs

Engaging With The Arts

Several art galleries have created guest rooms within their spaces to enable visitors to slumber surrounded by inspiring art. Meanwhile, some hotels have invested so heavily in their art programming they’ve become cultural destinations in their own right. This more-is-more approach continues from the themes explored in Hotels + Art 24/25.

The Gallery/Hotel Hybrid

Several art galleries have created guest rooms within their spaces to enable visitors to slumber surrounded by inspiring art. Meanwhile, some hotels have invested so heavily in their art programming they’ve become cultural destinations in their own right. This more-is-more approach continues from the themes explored in Hotels + Art 24/25.

Artful Collabs

Hotels worldwide are collaborating with art museums and collectives to allow guests to experience works usually confined to gallery spaces as well as provide them with exclusive tickets to art shows, events and tours. Others, meanwhile, are making a multisensory play, creating restaurants and bar menus based on themes explored at local gallery exhibitions.

Engaging With The Arts

Hotel guests are being given the opportunity to learn and connect with regional culture and history via hands-on workshops with local artists and craftspeople. Hotels are also working with artists to create desirable keepsakes for guests to remember their trip by.
