Suite 500/501, painted by ] and Bloum, is one of the most impressive room and features a mix of two and three dimensional art. Bloum covered the living room wall with labels from plastic bags from around the world. Silva painted another wall as a red brick wall, with a big half circle window. A larger than life woman with curly hair is stands in the center of window. The bedroom was decorated by both artists. The wall behind the beds is painted bright orange, and the headboards are painted on the walls. On the opposite wall, is a mural of the sea created by Regis and decorated with bags by Bloum. The bathroom is painted red and black with some distinctive symbols, and miniature baby dolls are perched on top of the cabinet. Taiwan's X-Funs Magazine recently published a ten-page article on this room.

Hotel des Arts is a boutique hotel in San Francisco, California. When it opened in 2005, 16 of its 51 rooms were painted by local artists–today 38 rooms are. Materials used include wall-mounted vinyl records, plastic bags, graffiti, fabrics, three-dimensional art work, and even installations.

Rooms

Room 404, painted by Tim Gaskin, was the source of some controversy. The walls are adorned with larger-than-life Louis Vuitton logos as well as an image of Madonna.

Hotel des Arts is in no way associated with any of the companies or celebrities whose trademarks and likenesses appear in the murals."
