There’s no place like home for the holidays, but a glittering hotel Christmas tree can also be a magical welcome to a new destination.

Across the globe, brilliant, eye-catching displays that range from traditional holiday charm to whimsical wonderlands are in full swing for the season, and we can’t help but want to get in on the fun!
This year, hotels are taking their trees up a notch with stunning designer collaborations with some of the biggest names in the business. Iconic brands and tastemakers such as Lela Rose, Lingua Franca, Louis Vuitton and more have joined forces with some of the most beautiful hotels to create stunning holiday displays that are sure to inspire you to book a trip or elevate your own tree. Read on to see some of the most dazzling trees of 2023 in some of our favorite destinations, from Charleston to Paris.
Claridge’s x Louis Vuitton
Louis Vuitton's legendary trunk is transformed for this festive, chic display at London's iconic Claridge's. Since 2009, the hotel has collaborated with iconic designers and fashion brands such as Karl Lagerfeld, Dolce and Gabbana and Dior, but this is the first time the tree has ever been designed by Louis Vuitton.
The hotel and the iconic French brand have a personal history together that's reflected in the holiday array. Louis Vuitton's first London store was right across the corner from Claridge's and the two storied brands were both founded in 1851. Vintage Claridge's travel stickers decorate the extra-large Malle Vestiare to evoke a sense of nostalgia and elegant style with this Art Deco-influenced creation.
Hotel Eden x Brunello Cucinelli
When in Rome, take a peek at the Hotel Eden's tree done in collaboration with Italian designer Brunello Cucinelli. Cashmere ornaments don this stunning tree that suits the hotels "Winter in White" theme for the holidays.
Caldera House x Lela Rose
In line with the opening of her new flagship location in Wyoming earlier this year, Lela Rose is showing off her entertaining skills with this elevated tree in the exclusive and intimate Caldera House. Blue satin bows, tinsel and classic orange pomanders make this festive tree a sight to see.
Pulitzer Amsterdam x ROKSANDA
Kay Thompson's philosophy of "think pink" reigns supreme with the refined fashion brand ROKSANDA's display at the Pulitzer Amsterdam. The tree takes inspiration from Norwegian textile artist Hanne Friis and embodies the creative sprit of both the hotel and the fashion brand.
The Connaught x Dame Rachel Whiteread
Sculptor Dame Rachel Whiteread focused on the idea of togetherness for this display in front of The Connaught in London. The 31-foot tree is covered in over 100 neon white hoops and is sure to dazzle.
Riggs Washington D.C. x Lingua Franca
The hand-stitched messages from luxury cashmere brand Lingua Franca greet visitors of Riggs Washington D.C. this holiday season. Ethically produced and a celebrity favorite, the sentiment of the tree is just as powerful as the bold colors that grace it.
The Dewberry Hotel x Schumacher
Ribbon is always right, and The Dewberry's collaboration with design house Schumacher does not disappoint. Covered in brilliant bows, this trio of fir trees pulls from the colors of the holiday season as well as the traditional fabrics and materials that Schumacher is known for.
45 Park Lane x Hormazd Narielwalla
When you get a close look at the main tree in London's 45 Park Lane, you might just see some of your favorite members of British pop culture royalty. Created by artist Hormazd Narielwalla, the festive ornaments are an exciting touch on an otherwise classic tree. They give it just the right punch for this cultural hub of a hotel.
Le Meurice x Baccarat
Le Meurice in Paris has been a favorite hotel of iconic artists like Salvador Dali and Pablo Picasso, and we love this nostalgic tree covered in red and gold baubles. However, the real collaboration happens at the hotel's Bar 228, which has been transformed transformed into "Black Bar" with the help of Maison Baccarat. Black crystal details from the iconic brand—along with caviar and truffles—make this an elegant, unforgettable experience.
The St. Regis Atlanta x Over The Moon
A well curated tree with a classic theme is always going to be a fan favorite, and the details of the ornaments this tree at The St. Regis Atlanta are absolutely breathtaking. The tree, done in collaboration with Over The Moon—a fashion, wedding and home e-commerce site—brings you into the world of the Nutcracker with painted ornaments done by artist Riley Sheehey.
