10 Hotels Transforming Blank Walls with Hotel Mural Art
Hotel mural art is the unique and attention grabbing addition to intertwine local hospitality and local artwork.
Hotels across the world are beginning to embrace the free-flowing nature of street and mural art by bringing them to their lobbies, rooms and venues. Mural art for hotels can pay homage to the area, the community or the history of the hotel, proving insight for guests and patrons. Local mural artists can be hired based off skill, style or specialty to paint designs for rooms, entrances, stairwells, restaurants, hallways and even the sides of buildings. Check out all the incredible work of art found at international hotels:
1. Majestic Minima Hotel, South Australia
The Majestic Minima Hotel in South Australia commissioned local artists to paint 46 hotel mural art for each of their rooms. Every room was tackled by a different artist to create a unique staying experience.
2. Blooms Hotel, Dublin
The striking Blooms hotel is a gorgeous example of the wonder of hotel mural art. Not only can a mural decorate the inside of a room, it can cover the sides of a building. Blooms Hotel in Dublin was painted and designed by James Earley a local mural artist who worked on the project over a year.
3. Victoria Park Hotel, Perth
Victoria Park Hotel nods its head to some of the local Aussie habitants with a bird mural for its upper level beer garden. The hotel mural artwork by Imogen was part of the 1.2 million dollar renovation. These murals act as an awesome background and fit in nicely with the beer garden decor.
4. Selina Hotel, New York
Sarah Lillz painted a 40ft mural for Selina Hotel in New York. Inspired by her time in Guatemala, the hotel mural art is made up of bright colours, thick lines and stands out against a white background.
5. Hyatt Centric, Melbourne
The team at the Hyatt Centric took the idea of mural art for hotels and ran with it! They commissioned Damian to paint several walls throughout the building including one by the entrance, the staff stairwell and the staff kitchen. Colourful murals boost morale and are a great way to jazz up the workplace with a custom art series.
6. Arroyo Hotel, Buenos Aires
The Arroyo Hotel is full of artwork. Halls, rooms, bars and lobbies are all decorated with hotel mural art by local artists. These include Eloísa Ballivian, who was responsible for the beautiful 10 metre hand-painted mural in the main bar which took two months to complete.
7. The State Hotel, Seattle
The very famous Shepard Fairey was commissioned to paint a gorgeous portrait on the side of The State Hotel in Seattle. His mural triggered a response from local hotels to commission hotel mural art for their own buildings in the local area.
8. The Carlyle, New York
Not all murals must be show stopping! The Carlyle embraces the dainty and delicate and wanted its mural art to reflect the mood of their hotel and bar. The mural features small, intricate drawings painted by illustrator Ludwig Bemelmans, the creator of the Madeline series of children’s books.
9. Baltazár Boutique Hotel, Budapest
Each of the luxury rooms in the Baltazár Boutique Hotel are designed and inspired by famous artists. One of the most popular stays is the street art themed room, inspired by Keith Haring and his works.
10. Goodtime Hotel, Miami
The Goodtime Hotel was an awesome collaboration of creative talent between singer-songwriter, Pharrell Williams and entrepreneur David Grutman. One of the main stars of the funky Art Deco re-design is the tropical mural in the atrium.
