Wall Sconces in Hospitality: Corridors, Rooms and Beyond
June 30, 2026
The unsung hero of hospitality lighting
Wall sconces are often the most-ordered fixture type in any hotel project . A typical hotel needs 200-500 sconces.
Corridor sconces
1800mm center height, 2.5-3m spacing, 3000K, CRI 80+, ADA-compliant where required.
Guest room sconces
Focused reading light, 30-degree beam angle, 2700K, separate switch per side.
Restaurant and bar sconces
Uplight washes walls (taller feel). Downlight creates intimacy. Bi-directional does both.
IP ratings for wet areas
Bathrooms: IP44 minimum. Outdoor terraces: IP44-IP65. Indoor corridors: IP20.
Maison Loucelle sconce collections
ADA-compliant profiles, adjustable reading lights, decorative sconces in brass, bronze, and matte black.
A hotel needs one great chandelier. It needs two hundred great sconces.
