I can say that the hotel accent table lamp is more a decoration than a lighting fixture.

They often appear in the public area of a hotel, such as the reception desk in the lobby and the rest area.

4. How to choose the light source for hotel table lamps

Hotel table lamps usually operate a long time in a day, especially the accent table lamps in the hotel public area, which have to be in service all day long.

Given the service life of the light source and the maintenance cost in the later period, Replaceable LED can be your first picks, such as E27/E26, E14/E12, G9, GU10, and the like.

It’s the best way to keep the service life of the light source as long as possible while being easily replaceable and energy-saving.

Integrated LED can be a good choice for some hotel table lamps with special design, if there has not got enough space for replaceable light source.

In addition, an integrated LED is also a regular pick for many hotel desk lamps, ensuring it easy to dim the light and have better control over the illumination angle.
