HOTELYA.ART · THE STORY
Born in Antalya, made for hotels
An idea that started on the walls of one of the densest hotel coasts in the world, and travels to any hotel that cares about how it feels.
01 · A coast of hotels
Few places hold as many hotels as Antalya
Antalya is where Türkiye welcomes the world. Along its coast, from Kemer to Konyaaltı, Lara, Belek, Side and Alanya, hotels stand one after another, many of them four and five stars, and they need art in every room, corridor and public space.

02 · Art in hotels
Art is part of how a hotel feels
Guests remember how a hotel made them feel, and the walls are a large part of it. Hotels typically spend two to seven percent of their furnishing budget on art, and every room, corridor and lobby carries it for years.
The best hotels no longer hang art once and forget it. Leading hotels in London, New York and Lake Tahoe change their collections with the seasons, every six months or with two seasonal exhibitions a year, and some refresh their walls around the events they host.
In a resort city the reason is plain: the summer guest comes for the sun and the sea, the winter guest for a congress, a team retreat or golf. One set of walls cannot speak to both.
03 · What was missing
Four worlds that never met
01
An understanding of art
Original work, a coherent concept and the judgment to know what belongs on a wall.
02
The need to change
Seasons, guest profiles and big events, and the years of rotation and replacement that follow.
03
What hotels require
Bulk volume, standard sizes, acrylic glazing in our frames, a stated fire class, secure installation.
04
The DNA of each hotel
Its colors, its identity and its story, expressed in one concept that belongs to it alone.
Each of these exists somewhere. Galleries understand art, print shops understand volume, consultants understand design, and a few companies rent and rotate art. What we could not find was one partner that brings all four together for hotels, in one concept per property, exclusive in its area, kept fresh through the seasons and payable in cash, in off-season room-nights or through an in-hotel exhibition.
To our knowledge, Hotelya.art is the first company in the world to connect these four worlds, and the first in Türkiye to offer hotels a managed collection that changes with the seasons.
04 · Where we work
Started in Antalya, open to hotels anywhere
The idea was born here, among the hotels of Belek, Lara, Kemer, Side, Alanya and Konyaaltı, and that is where we started. Today we work with hotels anywhere: wherever a hotel wants its walls to carry one soul and to change with its guests, the same approach applies.
