Elevator design mistakes in hotels

Hotels have specific elevator needs. Here is what to know.

Mistakes we often see

• Guessing the number of elevators instead of a traffic study
• Ignoring shaft and entrance dimensions in design
• Choosing finishes that cannot handle the use

How to avoid them

Involve the elevator company early in designing hotels; changes on paper are far easier than after construction.

Suitable elevators for hotels

• Luxury or panoramic passenger elevators
• Service and luggage elevators
• Kitchen dumbwaiters

What matters in hotels

• Cabin design reflecting the hotel identity
• Quiet 24-hour operation
• Separating guest and service traffic
