In the last years, most hotel owners have understood that, in order to remain competitive, conquer new niches and increase revenues, they need to make a great effort of creativity and inventiveness, and, last but not least, a financial investment to upgrade products and hotel services.
In some cases, this work may require a complete restructuring of the hotel design to bring the structure to the levels of required standards.
For many 3-star hotels, this usually means that they have to face an expensive renovation, rather than falling into anonymity and being cut off from the competition.
Very often those who decide to renovate the hotel have no points of reference with which to compare experiences and have problems to find experts, or worse, end up chosing expensive furnishing solutions not in line with the structure and type of clientèle.
Only with the help of serious professionals it is possible to make small targeted renovations and design, without impacting on the budget, changes that can really rejuvenate the hotel and capture new guests.
When the budget is limited, it is necessary not to waste important parts of the budget in operations taht are not even perceived by the customers. On the contrary it’s fundamental to direct the economic resources into tangible products and services, or at least changes that will be perceived by the host (for example, furniture, lighting, accessories).
In the bedroom, sound-proofing is a key element for the client, while it’s possible to economise purchasing furniture that will create a scene, but that is not particularly expensive and of valuable material.
In the bathroom, it is better to concentrate on a large shower (90 x 90 cm or 80 × 120 cm), a large mirror, quality taps and good lighting. Tiles and coatings, on the contrary, may have midrange costs, because, over time, they are the things that customers remember the less.
Finally, to renew the look outside without too much upheaval, it’s good to repaint the walls , perhaps emphasizing the structure at night, through a good lighting.
