“The Great Gatsby” showcased the Roaring Twenties as a world of glittering parties, layered with quiet longing beneath the glamour. That vision of elegance still draws curiosity today. Only a few hotels manage to echo that Art Deco era through design, atmosphere, and spectacle. If you’ve ever wanted to slip into the Gatsby spirit, these 20 places make it possible for you.
The Plaza, New York

When F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald spent their dazzling nights at The Plaza, the hotel emerged as a lasting Jazz Age symbol. Today, its legacy is carried forward in the Fitzgerald Suite and themed afternoon tea. Regular live jazz performances revive that same spirited energy.
Waldorf Astoria, New York

The Waldorf Astoria has always been a meeting place. For decades, New Yorkers gathered under its famous lobby clock before heading out for the night. Visitors can still sense that history in its restored Art Deco interiors and taste it in dishes like the original Waldorf Salad.
Claridge’s, London

Claridge’s brings Gatsby’s world into reality. Walk through its grand Art Deco interiors and you’ll see why royalty and celebrities loved it during the 1920s. Even something as simple as afternoon tea here feels theatrical, thanks to sparkling Lalique glass and details that transport you straight into that era.
The Savoy, London

Built as a palace of pleasure, The Savoy quickly defined London’s social life during that time. Guests today still gather beneath the glittering chandeliers of the Thames Foyer. At the American Bar (London’s oldest surviving cocktail bar), drinks are poured where Fred Astaire once stood.
The Beaumont, Mayfair

At The Beaumont, the twenties are reimagined. You’ll see Art Deco design in every bold line and detail, while the Colony Grill Room adds a classic American touch. For something unforgettable, spend a night in Antony Gormley’s sculptural “Room,” a striking blend of art, architecture, and Gatsby-era imagination.
Fairmont Peace Hotel, Shanghai

You can’t walk the Bund without noticing the Fairmont Peace Hotel. Officially opened in 1929 as the Cathay Hotel, it remains a symbol of Art Deco Shanghai. Step inside and you’ll find grandeur everywhere, but the real heartbeat is the Jazz Bar, where nightly performances keep the Gatsby spirit alive.
Hotel Du Cap-Eden-Roc, Cap D’Antibes

Perched dramatically above the Riviera, Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc holds timeless French glamour. Its Belle Epoque interiors still shine, and the saltwater pool carved into the rocks has been dazzling guests since the 1930s. While Fitzgerald wrote of Riviera life, you get to experience its elegance firsthand here.
Le Bristol, Paris

Unlike hotels that preserve a single style, Le Bristol layers history. Classical French design anchors its identity, and touches of Jazz Age glamour weave into that backdrop. Guests moving through the salons or the rooftop garden have an experience that is both historic and contemporary.
Hotel Martinez, Cannes

Long before Cannes became synonymous with red carpets, Hotel Martinez was already impressing its visitors. Built in 1929, the hotel’s Art Deco style still stands out along the Croisette. Inside, the ballroom and interiors capture the cinematic spirit that defined the Riviera’s golden years.
Taj Falaknuma Palace, Hyderabad, India

Walk into the Taj Falaknuma Palace and you’re struck by its scale. The dining table alone accommodates 101 guests. Beyond that spectacle, the interiors display preserved Victorian design, while the library, filled with rare manuscripts, highlights its enduring cultural significance.
The Chatwal, New York

The Chatwal’s 1930 building anchors its Jazz Age character, but the hotel isn’t a museum. Instead, it reimagines glamour through themed suites and the Lambs Club restaurant. Here, you encounter Gatsby-inspired opulence expressed with a distinctly modern sensibility.
Plaza Athenee, Paris

Those red awnings draw you in, but it’s the interiors that leave the real impression. At Plaza Athenee, you step into the Belle Epoque luxury of lavish salons, historic details, and Parisian refinement at every turn. It isn’t about the flash, but about classy grandeur.
Raffles Hotel, Singapore

Raffles is a legend. You can sense its colonial history in every colonnade and grand hall. Stop at the Writers Bar to toast its literary past, then sip a Singapore Sling where it was first created. Few places blend heritage and indulgence quite like this hotel.
The Ritz-Carlton South Beach, Miami

Miami’s history layers beautifully at The Ritz-Carlton South Beach. The building’s 1953 MiMo roots remain visible, softened by Art Deco-inspired touches that evoke Gatsby’s era. For many guests, the most striking moment comes at the pool, where ocean views define the hotel’s appeal.
Umaid Bhawan Palace, Jodhpur, India

When construction on Umaid Bhawan Palace began in 1928, it launched a fifteen-year project of remarkable scale. The result was one of India’s most extraordinary landmarks. Guests encounter grandeur in every corner, from the marble courts and royal suites to the palace’s storied vintage cars.
The Setai, Miami Beach

The Setai sits at the heart of Miami Beach’s Art Deco district, a 1930s treasure that has aged gracefully. Behind its historic facade are Asian-inspired suites and tranquil courtyards. The hotel preserves Miami’s old-school character while presenting it through a distinctly modern lens of luxury and comfort.
The Seelbach (Hilton) Louisville

Step into The Seelbach and you’re stepping into Jazz Age lore. Gangsters once schemed here, and F. Scott Fitzgerald famously partied hard enough to get banned. The Grand Ballroom later inspired his vision of a Gatsby wedding, giving you a direct connection to literary history.
The Fairmont Royal York, Toronto

When the Fairmont Royal York opened in 1929, it instantly redefined Toronto’s skyline and its social life. The soaring Art Deco lobby and historic ballrooms still hold that Jazz Age spirit. Nearly a century later, the Chateauesque landmark continues to showcase the grandeur of the 1920s.
Rambagh Palace, Jaipur, India

Rambagh Palace greets you with peacocks in its gardens and elegance at every turn. Once home to Jaipur’s Maharaja, the residence still carries its ancient touches proudly. Its grand ballroom, the centerpiece of the palace, has the lavish spirit of a true 1920s celebration.
Le Meurice, Paris (grand salon spaces)

When surrealist genius Salvador Dali made Le Meurice his Parisian home-away-from-home, he chose a setting that matched his artistic sensibilities. The hotel’s grand salons remain exactly as he knew them—preserved Jazz Age spaces with original Art Deco design elements—while its Michelin-starred restaurant carries forward the tradition of creative excellence.
