Like nothing. Mirrors work with light. If no light is present, they don't reflect anything. Also, if nothing was in the room, does that include people? Because you can't know what something is like in a room with nobody there to observe it.

You just blew my mind
-
Actually, there would be light in the room. While you are sealing it, there would be light being reflected between the mirrors, and it would stay inside.
-
No it wouldn't, the photons would dissipate into thermal energy after hitting the mirrors enough times.
-
No, that's not how photons work.
-
Are we assuming the mirrors are perfect? Forgive me if I assumed we were speaking on a general level and that the mirrors had imperfections of some sort. I don't exactly know why I did that.
-
From my understanding of thermal energy and photons, the photons have to be emitted on something that can conduct a significant amount of heat and has free electrons. Sure the mirror will convert some of the photons to heat, but the action of reflecting photons won't make thermal energy.

But how long? It wouldn't be instant.

But like he said, if theres noone in the room how will we know what it looks like

Well, yes. Perhaps I assume too much that most people at least have some knowledge of that.
