Hello Hoteliers!

As August draws to a close and we're left to enjoy what's left of this years Summer Sun... it's time to celebrate all of your wonderful August creations in Hotel Architect!

This month we added dynamic lighting into Hotel Architect, and this shines throughout all of your creations. In case you missed the update details, you can check them out here:

Forest Sandbox Mode - chenhenry009

We love the lighting that chenhenry009 has applied in their Forest Sandbox hotel, as day turns to night the exterior lights up, warmly inviting guests in to their hotel!

Forest Sandbox Castle - YBADY16 (Discord)

What's better than checking in to a Hotel that is basically a castle? Well... a nicely lit castle with a dancefloor! We're so impressed by the attention to detail in every part of this hotel, from the window design to the sheer amount of lights and and on-theme decorations... Bravo!

This design can be found over on our Discord server!

St. Anton Log Cabin - · L1uviade42 ·

This hotel looks like the perfect cozy cabin retreat in St. Antons, complete with outdoor firepits and an outdoor fireplace... what more do you need?

Don't forget to give the hotel design a like here:

Forest Sandbox Skyscraper - Yukiel (Discord)

Over on Discord, Yukiel has shared a rather impressive four section skyscraper with a rooftop that brings it altogether! The verdant and carefully lit exteriors of each balcony look perfect for guests to enjoy throughout the night.

The Pearl Hotel (Forest Sandbox) - GamingNorth (Discord)

We are so impressed by GamingNorth who, over on our Discord, has recreated a hotel Inspired by The Pearl in 007 First Light!
