In hospitality, the lobby is more than just a waiting area—it’s the first impression guests have of your property. The design, comfort, and atmosphere set the tone for their entire stay. One often-overlooked element that plays a big role in shaping that impression is window treatments. At The Blinds Side, we design, fabricate, and install custom lobby window treatments for top hotel brands including Marriott, Hilton, Sheraton, Westin, and IHG, ensuring each space makes a lasting impact.
Why Lobby Window Treatments Are Important
The lobby is a high-traffic, multifunctional space. It’s where guests check in, meet friends, or work remotely, so the window coverings need to address both functional and aesthetic needs.
Key Benefits:
-
Light Management – Controls glare from large windows while maintaining natural brightness.
-
Temperature Control – Helps reduce solar heat gain in summer and retain warmth in winter.
-
Brand Image – Reinforces the hotel’s style, whether it’s modern and sleek or classic and elegant.
-
Guest Comfort – Creates a welcoming atmosphere for relaxing or socializing.
Popular Lobby Window Treatment Options
1. Solar Shades
Ideal for large glass walls, solar shades reduce glare while preserving outdoor views.
2. Sheer Drapery
Adds softness and elegance while gently diffusing natural light.
3. Layered Drapery Systems
Combines blackout drapery for events with sheers for everyday use.
4. Motorized Systems
Allows easy adjustment for tall or hard-to-reach windows, even integrating with smart building controls.
Design Considerations for Lobbies
Lobby window treatments must be both durable and beautiful. We use commercial-grade fabrics that meet flame-retardant and colorfastness standards to ensure longevity without fading or wear. The style is customized to match the hotel’s architectural design and brand requirements, so the look is cohesive with the rest of the property.
