1. Add Inches to Ceiling with Full-Length Curtains
Hotel rooms with a high ceiling make the room look more spacious. Which is why this is the much sought after look by the interior designers. A simple trick to create an illusion of a higher ceiling is to install curtain rails right at the top end of the ceiling.

No matter how well a room is well renovated and decorated, a dishevelled place will take away the glam factor. Hence, create ample storage to hide away the mundane and irrelevant stuffs, such as outdated newspapers and tired looking work bags, that do not accent your living room design. In this way, you can keep the place pristine clean and tidy easily.

Since marble is usually associated with the elegant Roman and Greek statues and temples, using marble will create an oasis of grand atmosphere.

3. Right Lightning Matter!
Lighting is key since the right kind of lighting, in either warm or cool, is needed to create the different moods. Therefore, the hotel bedrooms are usually fitted with different forms of lighting in the form of the wall sconces, overhead and recessing mirror lights. Remember to use task lighting for the vanity counter and recessing lighting behind the mirror to eliminate the shadows and an overhead lighting to fully illuminate the shower area.
