The takeover of White Lotus Ken continues. As Season 4 of HBO's Mike White enters its final stretch of filming, the mystery series has camped out at the famed Hotel Martinez on the Promenade de la Croisette, six months after beginning production on the French Riviera and five months after filming scenes during the Cannes Film Festival.

Deadline reported in April that two hotels will be introduced in the new season: Airelles Château de la Messardière in Saint-Tropez as White Lotus du Cap and Hotel Martins as White Lotus Cannes. Hotel Martinez has been transformed since filming began, and many sets and props are still on display in the lobby. The white lotus emblem is also seen everywhere, from furniture to windows to carpets.

In keeping with the Art Deco style of Hotel Martínez (with a font similar to a real marquee), the new logo while Lotus is a major departure from the ornate flowers of the early seasons. Small changes were made from season to season as the series traveled to different locations - all of which telegraphed slate photos in early production that sneakily showed the new logo (including the first season). Below you can see how the White Lotus Hotel logo has changed over the seasons. Watch on Deadline

White is reportedly filming in Palm Beach this week, ahead of a rumored week-long shoot in Martinez, which may have been booked for the occasion.

Martinez's sets are blocked off by a sign that reads, "This is a fragile film set, please do not touch or move any elements." It includes golden palm trees, a fake elevator, a replica of a reception desk, a circular sofa and two blue armchairs with a blue painting of a man hanging on the wall. White Lotus accessories such as hats, towels, bags and scarves can also be found in the hotel lobby. You can see photos and videos in the Instagram post below.

A concierge at Martinez spoke to Deadline about the hotel hosting The White Lotus, noting that it will "definitely bring us more customers."

Season 4 cast includes Laura Dern, Steve Coogan, Vincent Castle, Caleb Jonte Edwards, Ben Kingsley, Dylan Ennis, Corentin Fila, Ari Greenor, Marisa Long, Alexander Ludwig, Chris Messina, AJ Michalka, Kumil Nanjiani, Nadia Treszkiewicz, and Nadia Treszkiewicz.
