Luxury Hotels with Superior Interior Decoration

8th August 2023

The major hotel brands like Hyatt and Hilton have long been the preferred choice of international travelers. They offer the same design and standard of room whether you are staying in London or Los Angeles. Customers were therefore happy to sacrifice eclectic design for consistency of comfort.

In the last ten years, however, hotel guests have become much more discerning about their interior design aspirations. According to the online magazine Hotel Designs, “Hotels are now styling their rooms in a more natural, hospitable way combining eclectic elements, contrasting colours, and vivid combinations around the rooms. In fact, hotels are enjoying a renaissance of colour.”

Hotel News Now says hotel designers are trying to be more bold and colourful. They are using local handmade decor, unexpected texture combinations, and even vintage fabrics. This is something that frequent travelers will appreciate.
