Have you ever wondered, of all the colors on earth, why did they choose white for the linens?
Despite the color being the easy one to get stained, it is the preferred color for linens in the hospitality industry, for years.
Why? Here is why.
White is a versatile and powerful color that can be used to evoke a wide range of emotions and associations. White is also a color that is often used to represent good and goodness. It is often associated with cleanliness and freshness.
White is a universal color, present everywhere starting from clothing to grandeur architecture. It is of no surprise that it is the first thing your eyes register when you enter your hotel room—white linens.
Hotels use white linens for a variety of reasons, including:
Cleanliness: White linens are seen as a symbol of cleanliness and freshness. Guests want to know that their hotel room is clean, and white linens help to convey that message.
Luxury: White is also associated with luxury and elegance. It is a timeless color that can be dressed up or down, making it perfect for any hotel room decor.
Versatility: White linens can be used in a variety of ways. They can be used for bedding, towels, bathrobes, tablecloths, and more. This versatility makes them a cost-effective choice for hotels.
Practicality: White linens are easy to clean and maintain. They can be bleached to remove stains, and they can be washed with other white linens without worrying about colors bleeding.
Inviting a guest in a hotel room of white linen will make the guests feel comfortable since not only will they be assured of the cleanliness about the linen but also white linens can also help to create a sense of calm and relaxation in a hotel room. This is important for guests who are looking to unwind and de-stress during their stay.
Additionally, if you think about it, white linens make rooms brighter and more spacious. This is important in smaller hotel rooms. And, white linens can match with basically any other color. You can throw in some red or pink colored pillows as an accent color to add a touch of warmth to the space. Based on the guest preferences, we can either maximalize or minimalize the room ambience, and our white linens will blend superbly in either setting.
