Hotel Ambiance

Have you ever wondered how hotels achieve that luxurious feeling in their rooms? Believe it or not, one crucial contributing factor is the curtains and textiles in the room, and something commonly seen in hotel environments is the so-called ‘hotel solution’ – a ‘layer on layer’ curtain arrangement. The hotel solution is created by installing double curtain rods and then hanging one curtain behind the other. Typically, a thin white fabric (which blends beautifully with the window’s light) is used behind a thicker, often decorative front fabric.

If you prefer the sheer curtain in front – Place the blackout curtain furthest back and a thinner one in front. Regardless of which curtain you choose, make sure that the ‘inner’ one goes as close to the window as possible and extends a good distance to the sides, outside the window frame. This will make it as dark as possible. If you enjoy waking up when the sun rises, you should, of course, choose a thinner curtain that allows a lot of light in.
