Step-by-step tutorial: how to make the Hotel Lobby AI video closest to the original

What is the AI Hotel Lobby trend?

The AI Hotel Lobby trend copies one of the most watched performances on the COLORS YouTube channel: Quavo and Takeoff rapping "Hotel Lobby" in front of a flat orange wall, sharing one microphone that hangs from the ceiling. Know Your Meme describes the trend as using AI video tools to replace the two of them with other people or characters, who then perform the song.

The first big swap, two characters from the TV series Suits, went up on 16 September 2026, and within days the booth was full of cats, cartoon characters, couples and coworkers. Takeoff died in 2022, and some fans have asked people to keep their versions respectful. Our template keeps the booth, the camera and the moves of the clip, and puts your two people at the mic.

Template clip: @pokito.ai on TikTok. An AI swap of the booth, posted 28 September 2026. Trend began: September 2026.

How to do the AI Hotel Lobby trend: by hand or in one click

The manual way

  1. Find an AI version of the orange booth clip on TikTok and save it.
  2. Give the clip and one photo of each person to a video-to-video AI model that takes reference images, and say who goes on the left and who on the right.
  3. Check that both faces changed in every shot, and run it again when one of them did not.
  4. Put the Hotel Lobby audio back under the video in an editor such as CapCut, then export it.

The one-click way

Here it is one click: upload two photos, press Make, and the Hotel Lobby template films the booth again with your two people at the mic, the trend sound already under it. It is the clip in the example above, and you pay only when the video finishes.

How to make the AI Hotel Lobby trend video

  1. Pick your photos

    You need 2 photos. Left (photo 1): stands on the left in the long white coat. Right (photo 2): stands on the right and raps toward the mic. Use one person per photo with the face clearly visible.

  2. Upload and confirm

    Drop the photos into the maker on this page and confirm you have permission. Photos go straight to private storage and are deleted after 30 days.

  3. Choose the sound

    Trend sound keeps the audio of the trend clip under your video. No song gives you only the scene sounds, so you can add the official sound inside TikTok and link your post to the trend.

  4. Wait for the render

    The AI Hotel Lobby trend video usually takes about 5–10 minutes. You can start another one or close the tab; it waits in Your videos.

  5. Download and post

    Download the 14-second MP4 without a watermark and post it on TikTok, Reels or Shorts. Label it as AI-generated where the app asks.

This maker starts from the original AI Hotel Lobby trend clip itself, so your version keeps its scene, cuts, camera moves and sound and stays almost identical to the original; only the people change. The full Hotel Lobby AI video tutorial shows what stays the same, what changes and how to get the closest remake.

Photo tips for Hotel Lobby

  • Both people get waist-up shots and a few turns of the head, so front-facing photos with the whole face visible work best.
  • Hair, beards and glasses come from your photos; the outfits stay as in the clip.

Who to cast

  • You and your coworker for the team chat
  • Two siblings who argue about everything
  • The couple that sings in the car
