How to turn dreams into sweet dreams?
How to make the client’s bed to make him want to come back here again, and what kind of underwear should be purchased for the hotel?
From 24 hours of staying at the hotel, the client spends at least 8 hours in a dream!
Hotel textiles should have impeccable quality. But performance is no less important! Linen for hotels is obliged to “beat durability records”, while having special constructions, which we will discuss in this article. But let’s start in order!
What materials are luxury linens for hotels created from?
Lingerie for a perfect sleep should easily absorb moisture, pass air well and provide comfortable sensations at any time of the year. Cotton does a great job with these tasks! It is hygienic, durable and easy to use! But the performance of cotton can be supplemented and multiplied. Really good linen for hotels – a tandem of cotton and polyester!
Should the laundry be tight?
On the one hand, the density of the fabric provides strength. It is important. But if you overdo it with excessive density, we will get heavy hotel textiles, and with it – extra costs in operation! Therefore, the “golden mean” is the linen of thin threads with a dense weaving option!
The linen has its own stardom!
Exceptional quality and performance are demonstrated by the percale, the underwear, which 4-5-star hotels prefer to surprise their guests. An excellent choice would be satin – luxury linens for suites.
Blended fabrics are more suitable for hotels of the level of 3 stars and below. For such hotels the best mix of all the same sateen with polycotton or coarse calico.
All the colors of the rainbow or classic?
Choose snow-white underwear! Colorists classify white as a color synonym for comfort and cleanliness! Is this not necessary for the client when he falls asleep?
How many sets of linen should be at the disposal of the hotel?
The ratio of linen can not be lower than 4. That is, for 1 room of the hotel at least 4 sets of linen. It must be remembered that the laundry, even the highest quality – consumables. Its service life does not exceed 2.5 years!
Is it possible to use homewear in hotels?
Not! The hotel linen has its own features!
• Duvet cover has a cut of at least 70 cm. This allows the maid to change it with a flick of the wrist!
• The sheet should be 15–20 cm larger than the mattress around the perimeter, taking into account the height of the mattress. In this case, the bed will look perfect after the client wakes up!
• No accessories – buttons and zippers. Frequent washing quickly “sweep away” these excesses.
And the logo?
More than appropriate! The upper right corner of the linen is decorated with the company logo in expensive and prestigious hotels! This contributes to the overall atmosphere of luxury.
