London-based interior designer Bryan O' Sullivan transformed the interior of the Magnolia Hotel in Algarve, Portugal.
The new hotel has retro neon signs and pastel pink accent colors, pulling inspiration from classic 1950s American motels. The striped ceilings, black and white photographs and cinema light boxes add pops of culture throughout the building. The two-storey building feeds into the motel aesthetic with 74 cleanly designed guest rooms, pink or turquoise beds, marble showers and seven wooden cottages around the structure for rent. Aimed to please the millennial market, the rooms are affordably priced, with a fun and exciting new take on hospitality.
With a heated swimming pool, game room, spa, stylish cocktail bar and weekly DJ -- the Magnolia Hotel offers a one-of-a-kind, stylish travel experience.
