The word <\/span>
\n
\n lounge<\/span>
\n <\/i>
\n<\/b> <\/span><\/b>can have several meanings. On the one hand, we find lounge as a musical genre: a variation mainly of jazz that appeared in the 50’s and is characterized by being a relaxing type of music, perfect to set the mood and accompany social gatherings. On the other hand, the term lounge can be technically translated into English as lobby or lounge. And it is this meaning that we want to talk about in today’s post. Do you want to know more about what is <\/span>
\n lounge bar <\/span>
\n<\/b>of a hotel? <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

If we merge both meanings, we find a new concept that, together with a catering service, invites us to social gatherings, disconnection and dispersion. It is a perfect place for a “<\/span>afterwork<\/span>“for more casual business meetings, or for any gathering of friends and family in a more relaxed atmosphere.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

In recent years we have been able to find this type of spaces mostly in bars and restaurants, also in weddings, social events and even as decoration in homes. However, hotels have also opted to create this type of space and, without a doubt, it is a safe bet.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Not only does it attract its own guests, but anyone can enjoy the lounge bar. <\/span>
\n lounge bar<\/span>
\n<\/i> and make your hotel a place of reference.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

What should not be missing in the hotel lounge bar?<\/h2>\n

Product, service and environment are the pillars on which to create a successful store. In this post you will not find useful tips on how to give a good service, but we will help you to create an attractive interior space.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Comfortable and quality furniture<\/h3>\n

Through the decoration and furniture, you must be very clear about what kind of image you want to convey to your customers. Personally, in this case we advise you to give priority to rest and tranquility. It has to be a place where your guests are totally relaxed.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, in these times of pandemics, you must take into account the current regulations regarding the safety distance between <\/span>
\n
\n tables<\/span>
\n <\/b>
\n<\/a> <\/span><\/b>y <\/span>
\n
\n chairs<\/span>
\n <\/b>
\n<\/a>Therefore, it will be key to make the most of the space you have available with practical furniture that allows you to play with the distance. A minimalist style may work in your favor.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

We would like to emphasize the importance of choosing the right <\/span>
\n
\n hotel furniture<\/span>
\n <\/b>
\n<\/a> adequate. You want your hotel guests to be comfortable and spend as much time here as possible.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

\"loung-bar-furniture\"
\nDesign and color may be paramount, but so are the materials from which they are made. We will look for a material that is practical, waterproof, or at least one in which stains are easy to treat. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

A <\/span>
\n
\n lounge bar<\/span>
\n <\/i>
\n<\/b> it does not have to be exclusively a place for coffees and drinks. For example, you may want to offer food service, an appetizer, a snack, even if it is not a restaurant itself. For this reason, the furniture you choose should be designed for this.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

You can play with different types of furniture, height and design. In the same place, you can create different atmospheres: bar and bar area. <\/span>
\n high tables<\/span>
\n<\/b> with <\/span>
\n
\n padded stools<\/span>
\n <\/b>
\n<\/a>low tables with <\/span>
\n
\n armchairs<\/span>
\n <\/b>
\n<\/a>, <\/span>
\n
\n sofas<\/span>
\n <\/b>
\n<\/a> <\/span><\/b>o <\/span>
\n
\n puffs<\/span>
\n <\/b>
\n<\/a>. The <\/span>puffs<\/span> are not an alternative to chairs, sofas or armchairs, but it is a piece of furniture that complements perfectly with all of them. If you haven’t thought about them, it’s time to keep them in mind.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

A fundamental pillar of the lounge bar: lighting<\/h3>\n

The lighting of the lounge bar is a fundamental aspect. If you have the opportunity to have natural light it will be perfect during the day, if not, we advise you to bet on a dim and indirect lighting, projecting it to the walls or floor. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

There are infinite shapes, models and types of lighting, which can also give a very original touch to the decoration.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

\"lighting-lounge-bar\"<\/p>\n

Candles or small lamps on the tables create a very special and cozy atmosphere, as well as luminous garlands or hanging lamps.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Good music, fundamental<\/h3>\n

As we mentioned at the beginning of this post, music will be a determining factor in a lounge. <\/span>
\n lounge<\/span>
\n<\/i> <\/span>
\n bar<\/span>
\n<\/i>. <\/span>Undoubtedly<\/span>it must be a quiet music (we can choose a jazz style, <\/span>chill<\/span> <\/span>out<\/span>or opt for acoustic versions) and should not be too loud, since the most important thing is that our customers can have a quiet conversation while having a coffee, a drink or an aperitif without having to raise their voices and without hearing each other. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
