For years, people have shown a greater interest in the experience that each product or service can offer, especially in the hotel sector this has been reflected in the increasing number of hotel owners who seek to create a unique, memorable, admirable atmosphere through the decoration, style and design of their furniture and the number of people who move to hotels to enjoy their architecture and interior design. Precisely, the use of new social networks and the Internet has caused people interested in staying in a hotel to search for information and make extensive comparisons. search for information and make extensive comparisons between different spaces before choosing one of them to make their reservations. For this reason, it is necessary for hotel owners to take into account how they are going to to consider how they are going to differentiate their spaces in order to better position themselves and impress a greater number of users. But what do you need to take into account when decorating a hotel?
Aspects to take into account when decorating a hotel
THE ORDER
This is the first thing a client notices when entering a hotel room and that feeling of order and care can be created, through the towels and sheets folded and placed in the closets, the cushions well placed on the sofas. or in beds and adequate space to move between pieces of furniture that must be properly placed.
CLEANING
Hotel visitors mostly consider cleanliness to be one of the fundamental aspects of a hotel’s service. Therefore, it is very beneficial that every day there is a cleaning service that is in charge of keeping all areas of the hotel clean. In addition, some actions that help to create a sense of cleanliness include placing personal cleaning kits in each room, the daily collection of towels, the use of a mild air freshener throughout the hotel and the use and care of plants and flowers.
THE MIRRORS
In hotels it is highly advisable to use mirrors both in common areas and in the rooms because they bring light into the rooms, give clarity, create a sense of space, and if they have a beautiful frame, they work as decorative elements in themselves. An idea whose result is incredible when the rooms have beautiful exterior views is to place a mirror in such a way that the landscape is reflected in it.

COLORS
In relation to colours, if the hotel is small, it is better that the walls are painted in white or other warm tones. But if, on the contrary, the hotel is spacious, it will be better that in some areas you make use of more cheerful tones to improve the state of the spectators. This combination of colours and sense of joy can be seen in the Hotel Aloft Gran Vía in Madrid where Beltá & Frajumar collaborated with the manufacture of furniture pieces.
THE POINTS OF LIGHT
In each space of the hotel it is necessary to locate very well the points of light taking into account the actions that customers will carry out in each area, an example is to place a lamp on a side table in each room so that users can read. And another example is to place lights on the headboard of the bed that at the same time that provide light improve the comfort of the client, as did the Hotel Eurostars Maximiliam, where Beltá & Frajumar had the opportunity to collaborate through the furniture.
However, we must not forget to take advantage of outdoor spaces where there is more light through the use of shaded areas and equipment so that customers can have more services. An example where the outdoor terraces have been taken advantage of through the use of Beltá & Frajumar’s furniture is The Island project in Estepona and another example is the Downtown Camper Hotel because it has also taken advantage of its exterior through the use of large windows.
THE CRAFTSMANSHIP
Nowadays, craftsmanship is something that many clients take into account because it gives a sense of exclusivity to the products and makes the objects more eye-catching. And that is why some hotels opt for the use of blankets, cushions, among others, which have been made by hand and even incorporate the name of the people who sewed them. One example is the Only You Atocha Hotel for which Beltá & Frajumar made certain pieces of furniture.
COMFORT AND INNOVATION
In relation to comfort, it is necessary to install furniture pieces in hotels that are comfortable regardless of whether they are going to be used by guests for one night or more days. Furthermore, even if the hotel is attractively decorated, time must be spent thinking about the design or shape of the furniture pieces in order to ensure that they attract the customer’s attention and that they will always remember them. An example where this aspect was taken into account was the Círculo Gran Vía Autograph Collection Hotel project where Beltá & Frajumar installed part of its furniture.
WATER
Making use of water in hotel spaces creates a calm, welcoming and fresh atmosphere in both outdoor and indoor areas. One example is to create a large fountain in a courtyard or place a smaller fountain in each room because they can even be combined with lighting and colours to create a small, relaxing evening show.
THE IMPORTANCE OF BATHROOMS
For some years now, bathrooms have become part of the aesthetics of hotels, it is enough to think that people take photos in them and it is considered normal to realise their importance. Natural elements can be used in them, such as stones that can be placed around the showers, wood that can be used to create showers and plants of different sizes. And, on the other hand, if the bathrooms can have views to quiet landscapes such as the beach or the mountain, it is preferable to generate access to those views as the Hotel Lava Beach located in Lanzarote did, where Beltá & Frajumar had the opportunity to install furniture that will help to achieve that feeling of relaxation.
WHAT THE CUSTOMER DOES NOT EXPECT
In the end, what guests remember most about the hotels they visit is what they don’t expect, as it captures their attention because they have never seen it in other spaces. Some examples are: creating a wall in the family room that is a blackboard for children to draw on, creating a reception desk with suitcases as its pillar, offering the guest a card with a free invitation to a hotel service they have not booked, creating a room in the shape of a sphere, placing a window in each room to observe the stars, etc.
HAVE EVERYTHING UNDER CONTROL
This refers to users being able to control the light and temperature from the bed because it is one of the keys to making them feel at home in the hotel.
THE GARDENS
Creating a garden around a courtyard that can be opened to allow guests to observe it from inside the hotel while relaxing with a tea or coffee, reading or working, can be a differentiating aspect of the hotel. And at the same time, in summer, it will allow guests to enjoy another area of the hotel where they can sunbathe, go out to play, etc. Once you have read this post, in Beltá & Frajumar we hope that you have realised the importance of taking care of every detail and that you contact our professionals for the next refurbishment of your hotel because if there is one thing we are clear about is that in each project you must create exclusivity and a differentiating and attractive style.
