How To: Hotel Curtain Look

Why Two Curtain Layers?

Double curtains don’t just look beautiful, they’re also practical. Each layer serves a different purpose:

When both are open, the room feels light and sophisticated, with the sheer layer still gently visible.
When only the sheer curtain is closed, it provides privacy while letting in soft daylight.
Want total darkness, for example in the bedroom? Simply draw the outer blackout curtain for complete coverage.
With this setup, you can easily control light, privacy, and mood whenever you like.

How to Hang Curtains for the Hotel Look

Mount two ceiling-mounted curtain tracks, spaced approx. 10 cm apart.
We recommend our sleek and minimalist Patrick curtain track.

Measuring the Length

Measure from the ceiling down to the floor and subtract approx. 2 cm, so the curtains hover slightly above the ground.
Measure in several spots and go with the shortest measurement, because floors are rarely perfectly level.

Choosing Your Curtains

Inner track: A light, sheer curtain (in white, cream, or another soft neutral)
Outer track: A heavier, light-blocking or light-dimming curtain for depth and atmosphere

Curtain Hooks

Simply hook into the multi-function tape on the back of the curtain.
As a rule of thumb: 10 hooks per curtain panel

Hook Height

Higher hook: The curtain hangs slightly below the rail, creating a slim light gap.
Lower hook: The curtain sits close to the track, almost completely concealing it.

Make the Most of Window Width

If there’s a windowsill, radiator, or other structural element below the window, install the curtain tracks slightly wider. This way, the curtains can hang freely and drape more beautifully.

For narrow windows, mounting the rails wider on both sides creates the illusion of width. It visually opens up the space and gives the room a more generous feel.
