      Gaze inside the atrium at Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star The Jefferson Hotel in Richmond, Virginia, and a wave of warmth will wash over you. Of course, the two-story venue is opulent, with a stained-glass ceiling and imposing stone columns. But what makes it special is the bow- and bauble-studded garland strung along the staircases and ledges, the poinsettia plants dotting the space and the regal tree sitting in the middle.

      Scroll below for more photos that will make you feel merry and bright. And share your own seasonal shots by adding the hashtag #HotelsForTheHolidays.
