Arts Decoratifs (or Art Deco, as it was later known) is an arts and architecture movement from the 1920s and 1930s. Distinctive for its geometric features and lines of symmetry, the style became popular for the many hotels built during a golden age of hospitality in the US. Here we look at some of the most stunning hotels around America that ooze Art Deco features – all mirrors, rich hues, painted glass and bold shapes. Some are iconic institutions with storied histories, others are modern hotels housed in heritage buildings where retro touches take on a contemporary twist.
