Why Is Wallpaper Preferred in Hotel Rooms?

Hotels choose wallpaper for four reasons: the surface can be wiped, a single damaged strip can be replaced, every room looks the same and the room feels warmer than with painted walls. For the business the most important point is that the room can be back on sale quickly.

Four benefits for the business

• Cleaning: vinyl-surfaced wallpaper gives up suitcase and hand marks to a damp cloth.
• Local repair: the damaged strip is replaced; the whole room is not repainted.
• Standard look: the same code can be ordered years later, so rooms do not differ from each other.
• Atmosphere: texture and pattern make the room look more considered, in photos and in reality.

What should the right wallpaper for a hotel be like?

1. It should have a non-woven backing and a vinyl surface.
2. Its fire class should be documented.
3. The label should carry at least the "washable" symbol.
4. It should be bought from one batch, together with spare rolls.

Is wallpaper used in corridors too?

It is, but a corridor wears far more than a room. A bump rail at suitcase height, or glass textile with paint, lasts longer.

Why are spare rolls kept?

Because a roll bought later may come from a different batch and show a difference in shade. For hotel and contract work you can look at collections at ithalduvarkagit.com and ask for a quote for wallpaper installation.
