Travelodge has invested considerable time and resources into developing its bedroom ‘style’, and it is being implemented as part of its £57 million programme to modernise its hotels and bring its new room design to them. By autumn this year over 80% of Travelodge hotels across the UK will incorporate the new look Travelodge.
H&C News therefore thought that readers might like to take a closer look at what constitutes the Travelodge bedroom.
The Bed
The Travelodge Dreamer is an upgraded new luxury king size bed which is used predominately by luxury hotels worldwide. The bed is produced by royal warrant holders Sleepeezee Ltd who are renowned internationally for their experience and craftsmanship in producing the most luxurious beds that money can buy. The company, established 80 years ago, uses cutting edge technology to create state-of-the-art mattresses that help attain a good quality night’s sleep
The bed boasts a 952 pocket sprung mattress and each spring is designed to follow the natural contour of an individual’s body. This provides the correct amount of support and comfort to ensure that customers receive a good quality night’s sleep. The pocket sprung mattress is also very beneficial for couples sharing a bed as it ensures that each individual is much less affected by the movement of their partner.
For further comfort, the bed is dressed with a quilted mattress topper and bounce back duvet and pillows. A new addition to the bedding is a stylish swoosh stripes runner to help create a gift wrap feel to the bed.
The bed also features a unique benefit of housing two space saving comfy truckle beds within its base. When the beds are in use the base can be used for storing luggage, providing extra space in the room.
The Décor
To help create a warm and cosy ambiance in the new room so that its customers obtain a good quality night’s sleep, Travelodge worked with a chromotherapy expert and has introduced a sleep inducing colour palette to the room’s décor.
The feature wall in the room has been painted a tranquil blue, as research shows our body clock is programmed to relate the colour blue to the hours of darkness. So when we look at the colour blue, our metabolism slows down, making us feel relaxed and sleepy.
The colour also has the effect of making a room look larger and more light and airy. The remaining walls have been painted a calming cream colour as this shade embodies the quality of gentle morning sunlight that helps you to wake up feeling refreshed and alert.
The room also includes artwork above the bed. This is an abstract design featuring relaxing sparkles and shades of blue, which customers found restful and pleasing to the eye.
To complement the colour scheme, swoosh stripes in the colours of red, grey and blue have been incorporated into the room décor via the curtains and bed runner. Vertical stripes have been chosen due to their illusion of making a room look taller, and to create a more restful and contemporary atmosphere.
Extras
Other additions to the new room include a stylish white contemporary en-suite bathroom with a power shower, stain and water resistant carpet in a dark shade of blue, a larger desk area, new reading lights and a phone charging socket built into the bed frame.
