Before you start

Keep the entrance route open to reception and place lounge seating outside the check-in queue.

Room details and site checks
Layout
Keep the entrance route open to reception and place lounge seating outside the check-in queue.
Detail
Use a hard-wearing floor at the door, softer seating beyond, and warm vertical light at the desk.
Trade-off
A large lounge feels generous but may stretch reception sightlines.
  • Roll luggage from entry to desk
  • Check the queue does not block the main path
