The trend, explained
What is the Hotel Lobby AI trend?
The Hotel Lobby AI trend recreates Quavo and Takeoff performing their song "Hotel Lobby" on A COLORS SHOW: two people in a plain orange booth, sharing one microphone that hangs from the ceiling. People use AI to swap in themselves, friends, couples, grandparents or famous faces, then post the clip on TikTok, Reels and X.
Takeoff died in November 2022, and some fans find AI copies of the duo themselves disrespectful. This tool puts your people on the stage, not the original artists.
Read the full story of the trend →- The song
- "Hotel Lobby" was released on May 20, 2022 by Unc & Phew, the duo of Quavo and Takeoff, and appears on the album Only Built for Infinity Links. Source: Wikipedia
- The performance
- COLORS published the pair performing it on June 17, 2022. Every A COLORS SHOW set uses one solid color and a hanging mic; this episode was orange. Source: Complex
- The AI wave
- AI versions took off on TikTok and X in mid September 2026, starting with TV characters and spreading to cats, athletes and couples. Quavo reposted the original performance on September 23. Source: Know Your Meme
Who goes on stage
What you can make with Hotel Lobby AI
Family across generations
Put grandparents, parents and kids in the booth together. The photos do not need to be from the same year or the same trip.
Your own song or voice note
Upload a 2 to 15 second MP3 or WAV and the lead lip-syncs to it instead of the Hotel Lobby track. Audio uploads do not change the price.
Your own reference clip
Have a performance you want copied move for move? Upload a 2 to 15 second MP4 and the two people from your photos act it out.
Before you upload
Photos that work best
The model copies faces, hair and outfits from your photos, so the input decides most of the result.
Works well
- One person per photo, face clearly visible and well lit
- Waist up or full body, so the outfit carries over
- JPG, PNG or WebP, at least 256 px on each side, up to 10 MB
Skip these
- Sunglasses, hands or hair covering the face
- Heavy filters, tiny faces in group shots, extreme angles
- Photos of anyone who has not agreed to be in your video

Is the Hotel Lobby AI video generator free?
Your first preview is free for every new account. It plays with a watermark. Unlocking the clean MP4 of a standard 12-second HD video costs 10 credits, and the smallest pack is 10 credits for $9.99.
Do I need to write a prompt?
No. The Hotel Lobby direction is built in: orange booth with the glowing halo, one silver mic hanging between the performers, the lead rapping and the partner hyping. You only add two photos and choose He or She for each spot.
Which AI model makes the video?
Renders use MiniMax H3 reference-to-video. It reads your two photos, the reference clip and the reference track together, so the performers keep their own faces and outfits while copying the booth, camera and timing.
How long are the videos, and what resolution do I get?
Choose a 12 or 15 second clip. Videos are 16:9 MP4 in HD (768p) or 2K. With your own reference clip, the video matches its length, from 4 to 15 seconds.
How long does a Hotel Lobby video take to make?
Usually 5 to 15 minutes. Most of that is waiting in the render queue; the render itself takes a few minutes. You can close the tab, and the video waits for you in My videos.
How many credits does a video cost?
A 12-second HD video costs 10 credits and a 15-second one costs 12. 2K costs more, and a reference clip you upload is priced by its length. The exact number is shown on the button before you create anything.
Can I use my own song or my own video?
Yes. Upload an MP3 or WAV of 2 to 15 seconds to change what the lead raps to, or an MP4 of 2 to 15 seconds to change the choreography. Longer files can be trimmed in the browser before upload.
What happens if a render fails?
You are not charged. Credits go back to your balance automatically, and if it was your free preview, you get it back too.
How long do you keep my photos and videos?
Uploaded photos and clips are deleted 7 days after the render finishes. Finished videos stay in My videos until you delete them or your account. Nothing is public unless you share the file yourself.
Can I make a video of someone else?
Only with their permission. Do not upload photos of people who have not agreed, of minors without a guardian, or of public figures to mislead anyone. We may remove content and accounts that break this rule.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. It runs in any modern mobile or desktop browser. There is nothing to install, and you can leave the page while the video renders.
