A hotel reception is a place of particular value. It is here where the first (and last) contact of the guest
with the facility takes place. It is critical to make sure that visitors get a positive first impression. Every
detail matters when it comes to making sure that the reception area efficiently serves and pleasantly
surprises guests. The design should be ex- pressive and convey a strong character but not for the price
of overwhelming the guests with any unnecessary excess. Comfort and functionality are essential to
make guests feel even more comfortable than at home. The reception counter obviously takes center
stage and therefore it should be elegant and durable. Materials usually include stone, wood, ceramics,
glass, and concrete. This is the starting point of the concept’s narrative and should not be overlooked.
