The Hotel<\/strong> <\/em>lobby is the first thing that you notice when you visit a Hotel<\/strong><\/em>, is the first impact that you have and it can be great or bad.\u00a0Is very important for the Hotels<\/strong> <\/em>to concentrate in their entryways and get inspired with magnificent lobby d\u00e9cor ideas.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Today we\u2019ll share with you 5 design secrets from the world\u2019s best hotels<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Take the Shortcut to Luxury with Accessories<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>One of the simple (and most affordable) ways to get the high-end<\/strong>, collected-over-time look of a boutique hotel<\/strong> <\/em>is with the accessories you use. Choose items that bring in at least three textures in the room: one plush, one sleek and one natural.\u00a0Cashmere throws\u2014particularly in not-too-cutesy patterns like herringbone\u2014and Lucite trays that catch the light are two of Jeffers\u2019 go-to additions.<\/p>\n

Go for the Most Drama in the Smallest Spaces<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>If all-white bathrooms read more \u201cbland\u201d than \u201cspa-like\u201d to you, steal this decorating idea from the model bathroom in the Solaris Residences in Vail, Colorado: Cover the walls in a low-contrast, nature-inspired wallpaper. Vertical patterns, like the Lee Jofa tree wallpaper the Solaris uses, emphasize the walls\u2019 height, making the ceilings look taller, explains designer Susan Moon. As long as the colors are all in similar, muted shades\u2014think pale gray and blue, not sunshine-yellow and burnt orange\u2014the room won\u2019t look busy and jarring.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Add a Different Kind of Mirror<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>We\u2019ve all heard that the bigger the mirror<\/strong>, the more spacious a room feels, but modern hotels are going beyond hanging them on the walls. \u00a0To make the room appear even bigger, choose side tables that are leggier. The more space you can see under and around the table, the less space it seems to take up.<\/p>\n

Pick Lighting That Doubles as Art<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>Many people worry about choosing the perfect painting to hang on the walls, which is why some hotels<\/strong> <\/em>skip it altogether and hang a bold chandelier<\/strong> in the lobby<\/strong>. These lights do double-duty, brightening the room while catching your attention. If you\u2019re looking for an overhead light, try a rock crystal style over the classic chandelier or uber-trendy star pendant.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Upgrade Your Lampshades\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"hotel\"<\/a>Part of the feel-good experience at a hotel<\/strong> <\/em>is making sure you look good, too. At Congress Hall in Cape May, New Jersey, the lampshades in the bedroom are lined in pink silk to cast a soft, warm light. \u201cIt makes your skin glow when you\u2019re in bed,\u201d says Colleen Bashaw, the resort\u2019s interior designer. She recommends painting the inside of an ivory paper lampshade a pale pink, like Benjamin Moore\u2019s Ballet Slippers.<\/p>\n
