Luxury Style Hotel Furniture at Affordable Prices
Hotels.com have just revealed their 2025 Hotel Hot List, featuring some of the world’s coolest and most luxurious places to stay. There's no denying that the allure of a top hotel attracts guests who wish to enjoy unparalleled comfort, exceptional service, and the status afforded by staying in luxurious surroundings.
But sadly, not everyone can afford to live a 5-star lifestyle. However, any hotel can achieve a luxury look on a budget and appeal to those wishing to enjoy a designer-style getaway without breaking the bank. We’ve chosen some favourites from the Hotels.com Hot List and shown how, with quality commercial hotel furniture from Eclipse, you can recreate their high-end looks at affordable prices.
1. Hotel Chapter Roma, Rome
Situated in the heart of Rome, Hotel Chapter Roma describes itself as ‘Glamorous and gritty, the hotel’s public spaces are filled with a mix of classic and contemporary art and graffiti to parallel the creative spirit and energy of the famously vibrant neighbourhood. The rooms are simple but surprising, curated with a mix of local and international designer furniture pieces and bespoke finishes'.
Basically, it’s cool! We love the lobby with its arched entrance ways, mood lighting and mix of art deco style with an industrial twist. The mustard velvet of the designer sofas shine against the dark backdrop and the black marble tables add a touch of vintage luxury.
In the lobby you’ll find the popular ‘Heybaby Bar’, where locals and travellers mingle and hang out. The large abstract art wall is juxtaposed by the glamorous gold bar and retro style bar stools.

2. The Standard, London
London sets the perfect stage for The Standard’s first hotel outside America. Located in King’s Cross, on the doorstep of the capital’s most exciting exhibitions, mouth-wateringly good food, live music, and historic architecture. The hotel is a Brutalist masterpiece - a former Camden Town Hall annexe from the 1970s. The interior design has been informed by the building's exterior - a real retro feast that's bold and graphic.
Within the walls of The Standard, you'll find the communal Library Lounge - once home to the Camden Council library, the space has been transformed into a cosy lounge but is still a book-filled haven. It’s a mix of low tables in mustard laminate or grey marble, laid-back vintage leather seating and ergonomic side chairs with a Scandi influence.

3. Susana Balbo Winemaker's House, Argentina
If you're after pure relaxation, then Susana Balbo Winemaker's House in the Mendoza wine region of Argentina is the hotel of your dreams. The estate consists of a stately mansion surrounded by seven exclusive glass-walled Spa Suites. The airy suites feature integrated spa facilities, and each offers a secret garden hidden behind volcanic stone as well as a terrace area where you can enjoy lazy lunches and ample wine tasting!
The architecture and interior design feel like part of the amazing landscape, all sympathetically designed with natural materials and a calming colour palette. Simplicity and luxury go hand-in-hand here, and it's the attention to deal that makes the difference. The terraces feature sophisticated outdoor furniture, including comfortable sofas, that play with form and texture in muted shades of black and grey.

4. Forth Hotel, Atlanta
Forth is a new hotel and social club in Atlanta’s Historic Old Fourth Ward. Behind its impressive latticed concrete façade lies beautifully designed rooms, elevated dining, and an array of fitness and wellness amenities. The property also incorporates a highly anticipated members’ club that has ramped up its reputation as one of the most exciting addresses in the city. Expect to see just as many locals as hotel guests socialising in one of the restaurants or on the rooftop lounge.
Forth are making a name for themselves by throwing sophisticated functions in their adaptable events space. The ballroom can be divided into three separate parlours to accommodate gatherings from 40 to 400, from an unforgettable wedding to a thought-provoking conference. The furniture in the dining and events areas is classic with a cool, European edge. Chairs are simple in shape but beautifully designed. A palette of black and white is softened with chalky pastels and hints of gold.
