Hospitality Lighting Inspiration & Ideas from MP Lighting

Great ambiance can only be created by great luminaires, and lighting has a huge role when it comes to guest experience in the hospitality industry. A well-lit lobby with task lighting is both functional – as guests need to check in, look over documents and sign them – and visually appealing – to welcome them into the space they’ll be in during their trip. The perfect lighting is almost invisible; it adds to the experience by enhancing it and predicting their needs.
