Furniture: your choice should not be a matter of chance
Making your hotel even more attractive requires creative thinking to find the right furniture that will combine comfort, quality and aesthetics while adapting to the story telling of your hotel. Furniture is the best tool to improve the image of your hotel. Find in this article, some advices to choose it well.
The decoration, an element that confirms your identity
Defining the style of a hotel is the object of a long reflection preceded by the drawing of inspiration. Indeed, inspiration can come from anywhere, at any time, and in any circumstances. So don’t hesitate to check out the most fashionable establishments. Also, visit trade shows that focus on the latest furnishing trends. An easy way to spot trends is to look at Pinterest.
Every detail is important! You can consider matching your furniture to the major theme of your hotel: classic, traditional, romantic… Play with materials, shapes and colors to create your own atmosphere.
Your entrance sets the tone for everything that follows, so don’t neglect it. Set the tone of your interior directly with your exterior design choices.
Less is more: embrace the minimalist spirit
The minimalist style reached its peak in the 1960s. A trend in aesthetics and interior design that aims to reduce materials to a minimum. To bring this minimalist touch to your hotel, avoid flashy colors and opt for neutral tones such as gray, beige, white or midnight blue.
In addition, your real estate should be uncluttered and discreet. Minimalism is above all a style that blends objects with their surroundings. Avoid all heaviness and extravagance and leave room for discretion in your storage.
Concerning your materials, prefer raw materials such as glass or lacquered wood. However you can add more character by playing with textures.
Confort and biofeeling
Beyond aesthetics, your furniture must contain a form of comfort, ease of maintenance, and practicality… To be avoided: a too imposing furniture in restricted spaces; your decoration must not slow down your staff in its movement.
Think of arranging your café and restaurant in a cosy way, so that customers can relax and take time for themselves.
Biofeeling is a movement that believes that shapes and environments have a direct impact on emotions. So, to keep your guests calm and collected, design rooms with geometrically defined lines, soft chairs, and a warm atmosphere.
What about you? Where do you get your inspiration to furnish your home? Do you do it yourself or do you call a professional?
La Boutique des Proprios : the essentials for your rental !
The devil is in the details! We’re not teaching you anything, the Bnb rental market is very competitive. All hosts Airbnb s goal is to stand out in order to attract potential customers, who are more and more demanding. But how to satisfy them and how to create a quality welcome? These are recurrent and yet essential questions. We recently discovered La Boutique des Proprios, a website that offers an innovative solution: the purchase of welcome kits! Dedicated to travelers, they will allow you to become an exceptional host… We explain everything.
The welcome kit
your seduction asset
Whoever has never forgotten their toothbrush when going on vacation, come forward! Because so many of us are absent-minded, these wonderful kits are the ultimate solution. Thus, La Boutique des Proprios offers 4 types of kits: for the reception, the children, the bathroom and the aperitif. These kits will surprise your travelers who will be delighted to have such a thoughtful host. Surprise guaranteed! It’s a worthwhile investment because you’ll get great reviews! Your guests will feel at home and will not miss anything.
La Boutique
des Proprios
It is easy for professionals (hotels, campings…) to get products and kits (hygiene, maintenance or gourmet). Unfortunately, it is more complicated for a simple host Airbnb. As a result La Boutique des Proprios provides you with welcome kits for your tenants (cleaning products, basic foodstuffs, welcome gifts, toiletries…) as well as the necessary for your rental:
- Bed linen & towels
- Bedding (mattresses, pillows, comforters, …)
- Furniture (outside, inside, dishes, …)
- Appliances (kitchen, maintenance, television, …)
- Safety (smoke detector, first aid kit and defibrillator)
- Childcare (prevention, diaper, bedding, …)
You will then be able to adapt your property to your customers by offering them adapted equipment. To know more about it, discover our article “how to target and seduce our customers”.
