A chic hotel interior in 6 steps
For many, the weekend means relaxing. Therefore, it is no coincidence that this style of living has become increasingly popular in recent years. Take a trip to your own home and transform your interior into a chic hotel by following these 6 steps!
Travelling around your home
Step 1: Choose a theme
Every hotel has a theme. Think about the style you want to create and work it out on a mood board. Visualising your wishes and style will give you a better idea of the end result. There are 2 main styles that are common: light and dark. The light theme focuses on the colours white, beige, off-white and golden tones. Materials such as marble and glass are also quite common. Dark colours play an important role in the dark style. Black, dark green or a deep dark blue colour on the walls and thick, dark curtains. Black or silver metal accessories are common in this theme as well.
Doing this in step 1 will make it easier for you and give you a good idea of the theme as you begin to decorate. Usually, there is only one theme chosen, but it is also possible to give each room a different theme. We see it all the time in the hotel, plus it gives you more variety and options! Whether you choose a light or dark interior theme, a herringbone Vinyl floor offers the flexibility to adapt to different styles. The herringbone pattern adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to the room, and works well with both the light and dark colour palettes often used in hotel chic decor.
Step 2: Avoid knick-knacks
Avoid clutter! Getting the basics right means clearing space. Take that broom and start sweeping! Make a selection of the decor pieces you want to keep and get rid of. Have you picked out a bunch of pretty ones, but do they don’t go with the theme because, for example, they are the wrong colour? Just buy a spray can and make them matte black or gold, for example. This way you can go in any direction you like, regardless of the theme you have chosen.
Step 3: Where the magic happens
Time to start step 3. This is where the magic happens: the bedroom! The most important part of a hotel is the room, so let’s start by transforming the bedroom. Living rooms are usually at the centre of interior design trends, but in a chic hotel it is all about the comfort of the room. If you want comfort, go for premium! A bed is perhaps the most important piece of furniture in this style. Choose a large bed with a headboard in a luxurious fabric. Complete it with two identical bedside tables and attractive lamps on either side. A dream bed is essential in this interior. This style is all about luxurious, modern shapes and stylish colours!

Step 4: The characteristics of a chic hotel interior
Step 4 is where you really can get down to business! Now that you have the right foundation, it is time to add the finishing touches to your chic interior. With your chosen theme in mind, you have a wide range of colours to choose from. If you have opted for a dark theme, paint the walls in a deep blue colour to add depth to your room. If, on the other hand, you have opted for a light theme, paint the walls a soft sand colour to create an extra atmospheric ambience. Choose luxurious fabrics such as velvet and satin for a special effect. Hang thick curtains in the bedroom to enhance the atmosphere. Complement the king-size bed with an attractive bedspread. If you have a spare corner in the bedroom, create a hotel-style reading area with one or two armchairs and a side table. It’s the perfect place to curl up with a book or spend some time with your favourite magazine.
The ultimate piece of furniture for a chic hotel interior? For the ultimate lobby feel, add a beautiful couch in the hallway or living room. Combine this with a particularly stylish herringbone laminate floor and you have a very strong package.
Transform the bedroom!
With tile paint you can easily transform your bathroom into a luxurious oasis of peace. To complete the atmosphere of a chic interior, choose white, clean, smooth and marble! While dark tones and colours are often chosen for bedrooms, white and light tones are usually chosen for bathrooms. And let’s be honest, you can really create something magical with tile paint. It quickly creates a whole new atmosphere!
Step 5: Light in the darkness
In this step it doesn’t matter which theme you have chosen. Light plays an important role in both themes! In a hotel interior, lamps and light are very important. The atmosphere in a hotel is largely determined by the lighting. Hard white light gives a different feel than soft, yellow light. In the bedroom and living room of your chic hotel, choose atmospheric lighting in a yellow shade, so that the light is not too harsh and creates the right atmosphere. The lamps themselves are usually unique, special shapes or large in size. Illuminate yourself with eye-catching lighting! It sets the tone for your luxurious and chic interior.

Step 6: Put it together
Step 6 is where it all comes together. The walls have been painted, the furniture is chosen, the lights are on and now it’s time to complete the chic interior with the right floor! Curious which floors are often found in a chic hotel interior? Unique floors that enhance the luxurious and stylish interior of the hotel. In the lobby, a Vinyl floor is often chosen, with large tiles that enhance the beauty of the room. In addition, a hotel lobby or reception area is used a lot, a floor must be able to withstand a knock and have a high usage class. Tile Rigid Click Vinyl floors are ideal for this.

Herringbone richness

Herringbone laminate or herringbone Vinyl floors are therefore ideal for a chic hotel interior! Or combine the stylish interior with an XL herringbone floor, such as the whalebone Vinyl.
