A hotel’s lobby says a lot about its character. It sets the stage for expectation—and the best ones light up your senses, leaving you feeling excited, engaged, and in some cases, simply fabulous.
From celebrated fountains in Las Vegas to historic, renaissance-inspired ceilings in Italy, check out our list below for seven of the best hotel lobbies in the Inspirato Collection.
Bellagio Hotel — Las Vegas, Nevada
The Bellagio Hotel is an iconic part of the Las Vegas Strip. Famous movies such as “Ocean’s Eleven,” “The Hangover Part III,” and “Jason Bourne,” were all filmed in front of the famous Bellagio fountain. But the main attraction for many visitors is the abundance of extravagant art installations inside. The Bellagio’s main lobby is covered in a glass ceiling filled with over 2,000 colorful glass flowers—hand-blown by the famed artist Dale Chihuly. If you’re wanting more, venture farther through the hotel to experience the conservatory and botanical gardens.
Conrad Tulum Riviera Maya — Tulum, Mexico
The Conrad Tulum Riviera Maya beckons you in with its main doors pivoted to the sides, revealing a breezy, elegant, and inviting interior. This lobby demands attention with extravagant yet subdued décor, as well as views of ornamental pools and the sparkling Caribbean Sea. Condé Nast Traveler writes, “There are few moments that force your shoulders to drop as easily as walking through the Conrad’s entrance.”
Malliouhana Resort — Anguilla, British West Indies
This oceanfront resort’s airy, open lobby features high ceilings, archways, and a classic Caribbean palette that mimics the beautiful hues of the surrounding sea.

The Hermitage Hotel — Nashville, Tennessee

The Hermitage Hotel emanates glamour in every detail, from the stately hotel lobby furniture to the ornamental decorations and marble walls.

Masseria Torre Maizza — Puglia, Italy
An upscale hideaway on Italy’s Adriatic Coast, Rocco Forte’s Masseria Torre Maizza welcomes you onto a unique property that was once a 16th-century farmhouse. The hotel gets its inspiration from the sensational landscapes of Puglia—blending local heritage with contemporary luxury in every detail.
