Baroque hotel furniture supplier: what hotels should look for

Casa Padrino is the furniture brand of Demotex GmbH in Essen, Germany, founded in 2007. We offer furniture in baroque, rococo, neo-baroque, Art déco and classic style, together with chandeliers, mirrors, decoration, garden furniture, sculptures and bathtubs, and we furnish not only private homes and villas but also complete hotels, restaurants and bars.

What defines a baroque hotel furniture supplier

A hotel buys differently from a private household. An armchair in the lobby is used more often in a single day than one at home is in a week. Twenty rooms should look alike, while the suite still needs to stand apart. The opening date is fixed, and the architect, the site manager and the operator all have a say. A supplier of baroque hotel furniture therefore has to bring two worlds together: the splendour of the baroque style, with its carving, gilding and rich upholstery, and the sober requirements of a business that has to work every single day.

Whether a supplier can do this is something you can check. The six criteria below let you look at every supplier in the same way, Casa Padrino included.

1. A finish built for daily hotel use

Baroque furniture in a hotel has to withstand more than it would in a private drawing room. Ask about the material of the frame, the type of surface finish, the upholstery fabric and how a piece can be cleaned. A serious supplier answers these questions precisely, and will sometimes advise against a particular finish if it does not suit a heavily used area.

At Casa Padrino: material, colour and dimensions are stated for every item. Upholstery and finishes can be chosen to order, so you can agree the right version for the lobby, the restaurant or the rooms. Our customer service answers questions on +49 201 36577485 or at info@casa-padrino.de. More on quality and craftsmanship.

2. Quantities and a consistent finish

A hotel rarely needs just one of anything. Bedside tables, chairs, mirrors and serving trolleys are often needed in series, and every piece should match in colour and finish. Clarify early how many you need, whether you want to be able to reorder later, and how the supplier keeps the finish consistent across a whole series.

At Casa Padrino: we furnish hotels, restaurants and bars in full, not just individual rooms. Quantities, colours and finishes are discussed with you before the order is placed, so that a series looks coherent as a whole. More on hotel and contract projects.

3. Bespoke pieces for rooms, lobby and suites

Hotel spaces rarely come in standard sizes. An alcove beside a window, a narrow corridor, a suite with an unusual ceiling height: work only with catalogue pieces and you will have to compromise. A hotel furniture supplier should be able to adapt dimensions, colours, upholstery and finishes, so that the furniture fits the room rather than the other way round.

At Casa Padrino: furniture made to measure and to your specification, adapted to your property in size, colour, upholstery and finish. Because bespoke pieces are excluded from the right of withdrawal, we settle every detail before the order. More on bespoke furniture.

4. Working with architects and interior designers

Behind most hotel interiors there is a design studio. The supplier has to handle floor plans, material specifications and colour schemes, and speak the language of the planners. Ask whether the supplier works directly with your architects, and in which languages advice is available, especially if the property is abroad.

At Casa Padrino: on request we work directly with your architects and interior designers. The shop and our advice are available in German, English, French, Italian and Spanish. More on our page for architects and dealers.

5. Dates, delivery and transport damage

A hotel opens on a fixed date, often after a renovation that is itself under time pressure. Before ordering, agree with the supplier when delivery should take place, how large pieces will get into the building and who takes care of things if an item arrives damaged. Factor in door widths, lifts and delivery areas.

At Casa Padrino: delivery within Germany, across Europe and worldwide, large furniture by freight forwarder, smaller items by parcel service. Shipping costs are shown before you order. Transport damage is noted on the delivery note and reported with photos, and Casa Padrino handles the claim with the forwarder. More on international delivery.

6. A company that operates in the open

A hotel project involves significant sums. So check who stands behind the offer: a full legal notice, an entry in the commercial register, a VAT number, an address you can visit, secure ways to pay and reviews that anyone can read.
