Blackout Roman Shades: Creating Guestroom Comfort & Energy Savings

For hotels and resorts, guest satisfaction often comes down to a few essential experiences—one of the most important being a great night’s sleep. That’s why blackout Roman shades have become a go-to choice for hospitality properties looking to combine style, comfort, and functionality. At The Blinds Side, we design, fabricate, and install blackout Roman shades for top hotel brands like Marriott, Hilton, Sheraton, Westin, and IHG, delivering both visual appeal and performance benefits.


Why Blackout Matters in Hospitality

Light intrusion—whether from streetlights, signage, or early morning sun—can disrupt a guest’s rest. Blackout Roman shades eliminate unwanted light, ensuring guests enjoy the quiet, dark environment they expect from a high-quality hotel stay.

Key Benefits:

  • Improved Guest Sleep Quality – Essential for positive reviews and repeat stays.

  • Complete Privacy – Keeps rooms shielded from outside views, day or night.

  • Energy Efficiency – Provides insulation to reduce heating and cooling costs.

  • Brand Compliance – Available in fabrics, colors, and patterns that meet corporate design guidelines.


Style Meets Function

Unlike some blackout solutions that sacrifice style for performance, Roman shades deliver both. With their soft, tailored folds, blackout Roman shades add sophistication to guest rooms while discreetly concealing their high-performance lining.

Customization Options Include:

  • Flat, hobbled, or relaxed folds

  • Decorative trims and borders

  • Cordless or motorized operation for safety and convenience

  • Pairing with sheer drapery for flexible light control during the day


Energy Savings with Blackout Roman Shades

The same lining that blocks light also acts as an insulator, reducing heat transfer through windows. In summer, blackout Roman shades keep rooms cooler by blocking solar heat gain; in winter, they help retain warmth. Over time, this contributes to measurable energy savings for the property—an important factor for hotels aiming to reduce operational costs.


Perfect for Guestrooms and Beyond

While guest rooms are the most common application, blackout Roman shades are also ideal for:

  • Media and screening rooms

  • Conference rooms with projection equipment

  • Spa relaxation rooms
