The Last Resort
- “Welcome to The Last Resort, home of the most memorable vacations ever had!”
- —Sign in the light hotel, Luigi's Mansion 3
The Last Resort is a hotel and the main setting of Luigi's Mansion 3. Luigi, Mario, Princess Peach, and three Toads are invited there for a vacation party by the hotel's owner, Hellen Gravely, unaware that the hotel is haunted and Hellen is working with King Boo to trap them all in paintings. Its name is derived from the phrase "last resort," which refers to an option one takes when nothing else works.
During Luigi's final battle with King Boo, the latter enlarged the portrait he intended to trap the former in, creating a magical vortex that threatened to draw in the Last Resort itself. Although Luigi defeated King Boo before he could carry out his plan, the strain the Boo king put on the hotel caused it to collapse, freeing all the spectral inhabitants that Luigi had captured. Afterwards, Professor E. Gadd, the Mario Bros., the Toads, Princess Peach, Gooigi, and the ghosts (friendly and no longer under King Boo's influence) attempt to rebuild the Last Resort. Like Luigi's NEW Mansion from the first game, the reconstructed building, in E. Gadd's image, will vary depending on the rank the player gets in the game's ending, determined by the amount of gold the game is finished with.
