Outdoor Solutions to Elevate Guest Experience
Extending the Guest Experience Outdoors
During the summer months, guests want to maximize their time outdoors and often look to hotels to provide them with a fresh and exciting environment to embrace the sunshine. Creating comfortable, inviting, and practical outdoor spaces is fundamental in increasing customer satisfaction, especially as the weather becomes warmer. With the right solutions, guests will find themselves without much reason to leave the property, thus retaining their business for other hotel services, such as food and beverage. Also, it never hurts for passersby – or those looking for accommodations – to see your patio bustling with happy guests.
Creating an Inviting Ambiance
Lighting is one of the most effective elements in creating a specific atmosphere. Aside from the practical aspect, lighting solutions can be used to set the mood and add character to your space. Too dark of an outdoor area at night may conflict with your desired ambiance, especially if your goal is to create a space fit for socializing. However, if you’re looking to design a tranquil escape, you might want to dim the lights.
Strategic lighting fixtures can also create natural walkways for guests that may not be as familiar with the hotel. With the right placement, lighting can reduce confusion and make your space more accessible and safe for your guests.
Another way to make your space feel inviting are fire pits. Not only are they great for colder nights, but they practically beg for people to surround them. Nothing says summer like ending the day beside a fire — s’mores optional. Luckily, Hanover’s coffee table fire pit is a wonderful choice for hosting guests. With it’s beautiful woven design and ample space to place beverages, this coffee table will make a great addition to your space and is sure to spark conversation.

And to take comfort a step further, investing in patio heaters for your space can make all the difference during those chilly nights. By keeping your guests warm and comfortable, patio heaters can help maximize the time you can hosts guests outside throughout a year, extending your window for outdoor dining and other services.

Entertaining and Engaging
Outdoor entertainment is a game-changer if you want guests to stay on the property instead of venturing out to find entertainment elsewhere. Adding music to an outdoor area can significantly enhance its appeal. Music creates ambiance, setting the tone for relaxing, socializing, or even celebrating. Whether it’s upbeat tunes by the pool or gentle background music on the terrace, music can greatly elevate a guest’s experience, making them feel immersed in their surroundings. Quality outdoor speakers are the best way to create a soundscape for your establishment. Speakers also provide versatility, allowing hotels to cater to different moods and events. Adding music to your space will make it vibrant and all the more inviting, ultimately making it easier for guests to unwind and continue to enjoy their stay.
Furthermore, outdoor TVs can elevate an outside area, especially during special sporting events where you can advertise your space as the place to watch the game. Outdoor TVs are an excellent addition to bar areas or outdoor dining spaces for your guests. The Samsung 55″ Pro TV Terrace Edition Outdoor QLED flat screen is a great option to ensure a high quality viewing experience. This TV features an ultra-bright picture quality, allowing guests to watch comfortably at all times of the day. This model is also waterproof, features an On/Off timer, allowing the TV to automatically operate during business hours. Plus, the TV includes a 16 hour panel, providing a longer daily run time for businesses.
By investing in these outdoor amenities this summer, hotels not only enhance the customer experience, but also create lasting memories that keep guests coming back for more.
