How to Create a Welcoming and Cosy Environment in Hospitality Settings

In hospitality, atmosphere is everything. Whether it’s a countryside pub, boutique hotel, or high-street café, the ambience you create plays a key role in how guests feel—and whether they return. While food and service are essential, one element often overlooked is your window treatments.
At AmsoIronWork, we specialise in wrought iron curtain poles, door curtain poles, and accessories that blend style, durability, and functionality.
Natural Light: Your Best Design Tool

Natural light instantly lifts a space, making it feel larger, warmer, and more welcoming. It also influences your guests’ mood—encouraging them to relax and linger.

Maximise light by:

Keeping windows free from large obstructions.
Using mirrors and light-coloured surfaces to reflect sunlight.
Installing curtain tiebacks or holdbacks to let in more daylight.
Choosing lightweight fabrics that offer privacy without blocking brightness.

Privacy Meets Style

Of course, your guests also need privacy—especially in street-facing seating areas. Cafe curtain rods are a great solution. They sit midway up the window, allowing natural light in while keeping the lower half covered. For open dining spaces, opt for sheer or light-coloured fabrics. In private areas or guest lounges, heavier curtains create a more intimate feel.

Seasonal Adjustments for Year-Round Comfort
Window treatments should evolve with the seasons.
In winter:
Use heavier fabrics like velvet or wool.
Install door curtain poles with thick curtains to block drafts.
Close curtains in the evening to retain heat.

In summer:
Switch to sheer or breezy materials.
Keep curtains open during daylight hours to reduce artificial lighting.
