When designing your hotel rooms, every detail makes a big difference. You want your space to feel beautiful and welcoming, but it also needs to be practical. One of those small details that makes a big impact is your curtains. 

Picking the right design means looking at materials, colours and patterns. You also want a supplier who delivers quality products every time. Hotel curtains usually need replacing every 5-7 years, although this depends on a variety of factors. That includes how often they’re exposed to sunlight. 

What to Consider When Picking Curtains

When it comes to hotels, your choice of curtains should reflect the location and type of room. Various types of curtains our suppliers offer include:

  • Blackout Curtains.  Guests want a peaceful night's sleep. Your guests’ rooms should make it easy to block out the light, so they enjoy uninterrupted shut-eye. 
  • Sheer Curtains. Most hotels have public spaces or rooms with large windows. In such rooms, sheer curtains diffuse natural light while maintaining privacy during the day.
  • Thermal Curtains: Energy efficiency is a growing concern for hotels. Thermal curtains help regulate indoor temperature, keeping rooms cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
  • Decorative Curtains. Places like lobbies, conference rooms and suites need stunning interior design. Curtains help add that touch of luxury or uniqueness.

Determine the specific needs for each space to ensure the curtains are fit for purpose.

How Do I Select the Right Fabric?

Which fabric you pick will affect the durability and how easy the curtains are to maintain. 

For hotels, fabrics must strike a balance between beauty and practicality. Popular fabrics include polyester, linen blends or treated cotton. All are common in hotels and are resilient in the face of wear-and-tear. 

It’s important to remember safety regulations. These stipulate that you have fire-retardant fabrics, which are particularly crucial in guest rooms or public spaces. 

As is the case with bedding, you want curtains which are machine-washable. You might also want stain-resistant designs, since this will save time on maintenance. 

Need to reduce noises at a city hotel. You might want heavier curtains which absorb sound. 

Choosing the Right Look for your Rooms

Curtains significantly impact the look of a room, so they should reflect your branding and theme. 

Neutral colours tend to appeal to the widest number of people. However, some establishments  (particularly boutique or luxury hotels) use colours and patterns to add more personality. 

There’s also those little details, such as whether they’re pleated or eyelet curtains. Drapes UK is a leading supplier who can provide curtains which suit your interior design scheme. 

Don’t Forget the Length!

Our suppliers can provide hotel curtains of all lengths. Floor length curtains are one of the best ways to create an elegant, sophisticated look. However, shorter designs are more practical in kitchens or bathrooms. 

One clever technique is layering: combining sheer curtains with black-out drapes offers both light control and privacy.
