Small rooms with
a big impact
Hotel room lighting is primarily about creating cosiness and doing so without delay. Guests
should immediately feel at home and relax, regardless of whether they are on a holiday or a
business trip. Rapid regeneration through properly used mood lighting is the key.
Many hotel rooms lack natural light, or guests spend most of their time in the evening and at
night there. Pleasant artificial lighting is therefore particularly important. Hard shadows should
be avoided, as should too homogeneous surface light. In addition, there are different uses:
Besides relaxation and rest, the light should also enable people to work at their desks or read
in bed. Different light sources, e.g., separate table luminaires and indirect wall luminaires, allow
this flexibility. Separate connections for luminaires in the entrance and bed areas, as well as
optional dimmers make sense.
Warm light colours reinforce the impression of cosiness and set the organism up for relaxation
and sleep. Luminaires with a variable colour spectrum, such as LINEA Tunable White, can have
an activating or calming effect by providing cool white light in the morning and warm white light
in the evening – in harmony with the human circadian rhythm.
Lighting in hotel rooms and suites contributes visually to the hotel’s design concept, but still
remains in the background. It should support the interior design without imposing itself and
provide comfort. Among other models, SASSO 60 meets this demand for hotel room lighting
with three optics and excellent glare minimisation. The MOVE IT system is an optimal solution
for technologically equipped, modern rooms and flats.
Compact bathrooms are a distinctive feature of hotels. In wet areas such as showers and
bathtubs, attention must be paid to IP protection and the luminaires must provide sufficient
brightness. In the mirror area in particular, it is important to avoid unwanted shadows by
providing soft, vertical light mixed with balanced ceiling lighting.
Recommendations
• Mood lighting with adjustable spotlights
(SASSO 40 / 60)
• Dynamic light (cool and activating in the morning, warm
and calming in the evening)
• No direct light sources above the bathroom mirror
