Many people assume that keeping the guests happy is the only thing that hotel owners must worry about to be successful in the hospitality business. Indeed, keeping the guests satisfied is an integral part of the industry that should never be overlooked, but there are many other aspects required to help guests feel welcome. For instance, the illumination inside of a hotel could be the difference between a 5-star rating and a negative review from guests. Hotel lighting is significant because it not only keeps the guests’ rooms lit, but also keeps other areas safe including the hallways, lobby, conference rooms, banquet rooms, and pool and deck areas. Installing just the right hotel lighting will help produce an inviting atmosphere for those guests traveling far from home and create a cozy guest room experience.
Once you understand the differences between the three basic types of lighting—task, ambient, and accent—then you can start to properly apply the different types of lights around your hotel. For example, task lighting should be utilized in those general areas where you can predict work taking place and should include fixtures that produce bright light onto work surfaces. Compact fluorescent lighting is one of the most popular types of lights for work spaces because they are long lasting and use only 25% as much energy as incandescent bulbs.
Then, there is the traditional light of the room known as ambient lighting. This should be a soft, yet comfortable light that does not overpower the guest rooms. A growing number of hotel owners are opting for light emitting diodes (LEDs) that spread light evenly through a panel surface and provide illumination that is strikingly similar to the daylight. Diffuser Specialist has a lens that is ideal for numerous LED applications. The LED small mounting channel lens and base are perfect for installations under cabinets, counter top lighting, cove lighting, vanity, bathrooms, bars, restaurants, theaters, sign and displays. The lens is easy to install vertically or horizontally, anywhere you need a low-voltage recessed lighting solution, these will work. As with any product that we carry these are fully customizable and can be cut to the exact size you need.
The third type—accent lighting—is more decorative and used to set the overall mood. Accent lighting should be directed toward interior decorations such as paintings, or other forms of artwork like sculptures that may appear in the lobby of your hotel.
So, if you are shopping for quality hotel lighting that is made in the USA, then Diffuser Specialist has a warehouse that is always fully stocked, and can ship nationally and internationally. Customers are also encouraged to inquire about opening a wholesale account to enjoy additional savings.
