Elevate guest experiences with outdoor spaces
A sheltered outdoor seating area can transform a hotel or hospitality venue into a destination of choice. Offering guests a space to relax and unwind—whether enjoying a meal, a drink, or simply the view—adds value to their stay. From poolside retreats to serene garden lounges, these spaces create an inviting atmosphere that enhances the overall guest experience.
Drive positive reviews and bookings
Comfortable outdoor spaces leave a lasting impression, leading to higher guest satisfaction and better reviews. With 90% of travellers checking reviews before booking, a well-designed outdoor area can make all the difference. By offering memorable experiences, hotels and hospitality venues can boost ratings, attract new visitors, and encourage repeat stays.
Challenges in Hotels and Leisure Environments
Hotels and leisure venues often rely on outdoor terraces, gardens, and social spaces to enhance guest experience and increase on-site revenue. Any shading solution must provide reliable shelter, maintain visual appeal, and integrate seamlessly with surrounding architecture, while remaining safe and durable in high-use environments.
At the same time, exposed locations and unpredictable British weather can limit how often these areas are used. Without dependable cover and integrated heating, terraces and event spaces may be underutilised for much of the year, reducing opportunities for dining, social gatherings, and private functions.
Proven experience in delivering quality shading solutions
Indigo Shading has extensive experience supporting hotels and leisure venues in creating high quality outdoor environments for guests. For example, we transformed the terrace at Avon Gorge Hotel, Clifton, Bristol, installing large commercial parasols, integrated heating, and bespoke access solutions to create a luxury outdoor dining and social space.
Designed for year-round use and future expansion, the project demonstrates our ability to deliver reliable, visually cohesive solutions in premium hospitality settings.
