The project.
Hotel room suite decoration is what we do best so we put our best hotel decorators on the job.
We had completed some hotel exterior painting for this hotel previously. DoubleTree by Hilton Kensington asked Phantom, hotel decorators, to modernise their VIP apartment, the Kensington Apartment Suite.
We were tasked with completing the hotel room suite decoration in a relatively short timeframe before the suite was to be re-opened for important guests.
Specification.
The hotel room décor was to be modernised using three shades of grey throughout the hotel apartment suite.
The ceiling in the living room, bedroom, corridor and entrance were painted in Pure Brilliant White, replacing the previous light grey. However, the ceiling in the bathroom , WC and kitchen were painted with Dulux Trade Diamond Matt in a silk grey (RAL 7044). Diamond Matt was recommended by us for its high durability and easy to clean properties which is most suitable for hotels.
All walls throughout the hotel apartment suite except the kitchen were painted also painted in the same silk grey. The kitchen walls were painted in a deeper grey, Mansard Stone 30YY20029 to complement the newly fitted kitchen units and radiator.
The existing woodwork was varnished previously. Including doors, skirting boards and windows. Unless properly prepared, varnish woodwork can pose problems for acrylic paint. For example, if we had not primed correctly, any subsequent acrylic paint will simply scratch or peel off. We applied high-adhesion primer to all woodwork which allowed a water-based eggshell to take hold.
We applied two coats of acrylic eggshell to windows surrounds and skirting boards. However, the doors and the decorative architraves and plinth blocks was painted in Valspar Dinner Jacket X99R208A – a charcoal grey.
There were a number of challenges for our hotel decorators. On our arrival, to our surprise, works to the kitchen was still in progress which means we could not work in the kitchen or living room. There were also last minute changes to the colour scheme and additional works. Despite these challenges our hotel decorators had completed this hotel room suite decoration project in time for receiving new guests.
A four-star hotel room suite transformed by five-star hotel decorators!
The result.
We are very pleased with our hard-working hotel decorators. Not only did they carry out the hotel room suite decoration to very high standard but on time too. Because of our methodical approach, there were no snags to carry out afterwards other than scuff marks from new furniture.
When we applied the Dinner Jacket grey to the architrave plinth blocks our hotel decorator gave attention to detail around where the skirting joins the architrave plinth blocks by ensuring clean sharp lines and as much detail as possible.
Equally impressed with the rich smooth finish to the architraves and doors while retaining characteristics in the wood.
