Travel in Color: Vibrant Hotels Around the World

Color. It has an effect on our mind, body and emotions and can influence our physical and mental well-being immensely. Within hospitality design, color can be used to set a tone or mood — from romantic or exotic, to upbeat or playful — and can transform dull accommodations into Technicolor wonderlands!

Pantone Hotel
Color-lovers, prepare yourselves — this is your dream hotel. Inspired by the rich shades of Pantone, this Brussels hotel boasts 59 guest rooms that incorporate bold hues against a clean, white palette. There are Pantone-branded decor items placed throughout, from folding chairs, to mugs, to artwork — and all of these items and more can be purchased at the boutique hotel’s gift shop.

Semiramis Hotel
Playful and vibrant, the new Semiramis in Athens is equal parts museum and hotel. From the moment you step foot through the entrance (a glowing, pink-glass cube), you enter a world of eye-popping details and lollipop-colored furnishings. The hotel focuses on positive energy, heightened experiences, culture, design and art. (via Semiramis Hotel)
