Living in a hotel would be amazing — you’d enjoy a beautiful view from the window, regular cleaning, thought-out interior design, big bathrooms, and clean towels. But it makes way more sense to make your own apartment or house a little cozier, and you can start with the bathroom. In order to achieve a good result, you need to find out how hotel owners manage to turn a simple room with a shower and sink into a work of art.

1. White towels

Big mirrors make the place look bigger, and they make a better impression. Besides, it’s easier for you to look at yourself. If you don’t have room for a big mirror, install a magnifying one next to the first mirror. Many hotels use this hack.

5. Thoughtfully decorated windows

,

Hotels use the main and additional light sources. Very often, the area around the mirror is lit. However, it’s not the LED light on the mirror, but something more interesting.

The easiest option is flat lamps on the wall on both sides of the mirror. If you have enough room, you can install hanging lamps.

Don’t forget about the color temperature. The higher the temperature, the colder the light, and the more it looks like a hospital ward. Experts recommend using lamps of up to 3,000 К.

8. Attention to detail

,

Even the simplest bathroom will look like new if you add some bright details. You can buy an unusual soap or a basket for towels, pour the shampoo into a beautiful bottle, or get a nice holder for your toothbrushes.

Flavored candles, flowers, or a bowl with petals near the sink can help you create a pleasant atmosphere. Some hotels use antique objects for decoration. If you have a cute figurine, why not do the same?

9. Light minimalism

If you feel that minimalism and white are boring, you can experiment with certain accents. For example, paint the walls or the ceiling a bright color. But the floor should remain neutral, or it will be too much.

Another great idea is to use creative wall decorations, like animalistic prints, exotic landscapes, or pieces of art. Don’t forget that symmetric patterns make the space look smaller. If the bathroom is small, choose big decorative elements.

Another trick hotel owners use is toying with patterns and small tiles. By using different-sized tiles, you show all your creativity. Some French hotels use 3 different tiles, and the design looks stunning.

12. Maximum usability

In hotels, the rooms are not only attractive, but also practical. Bathrooms are organized so that they are easy to clean before new visitors come. You can do the same in your home.

Use tiles with even edges and small seams, as these are easier to wash. Also, put the tiles on entirely, from top to bottom.Use wall niches instead of shelves that take up space and collect dust.Hanging furniture makes washing the floor so much easier.

Do you read recommendations from interior designers, or rely solely on your own preferences?
