Sun Lounger Bed

A sun lounger and bed are specialised outdoor relaxation furniture designed for a hotel swimming pool terrace, SPA centre outdoor area or café relaxation space. High-quality sun loungers are an essential element in ensuring guest comfort in hotels and SPA centres — they create a comfortable relaxation experience and reflect a high service standard. The right choice of sun loungers is a long-term investment that pays off with durability and positive guest feedback.

Types of sun loungers and beds

Sun loungers are available in various material and construction options to suit the environment of use and budget. Aluminium frame loungers are lightweight, corrosion-resistant and suitable for frequent moving and stacking. Stainless steel frame options are more robust and durable for intensive commercial use. Polypropylene loungers are an economical solution with good UV resistance. Synthetic rattan loungers are an elegant solution for hotels with a higher service standard.

Material durability for commercial use

Outdoor furniture for professional use must be much more durable than options designed for home use. The lounger frame must withstand wind load, rain and UV exposure, as well as frequent moving and stacking every day. The fabric must be UV-stabilised so that the colour does not fade during a long commercial season. Cushions with water-resistant upholstery dry faster after rain and are not sensitive to moisture.

Adjustable backrest and ergonomics

High-quality sun loungers have an adjustable backrest with several locking angles — from a horizontal position to a seated position, allowing guests to adjust the lounger to their relaxation preferences. An ergonomic lounger profile provides back and neck support in different positions. Armrests and integrated handles make it easier for staff to rearrange.

Stacking capability and storage efficiency

Many sun loungers are designed with stacking capability — they can be stacked on top of each other, significantly reducing storage space when not in use. In commercial settings, stacking ability is essential — a swimming pool terrace may have dozens of loungers that need to be collected on wet days or during the winter season. The stability of stacked loungers is an important safety factor.

Parasols and additional accessories

Sun loungers work optimally with parasols — the right parasol combination provides shade for guests on hot days. Side tables next to the lounger are a practical element for placing drinks and personal items. Additional cushions enhance comfort. BHS helps hotels choose a coordinated outdoor relaxation area setup.

Hygiene and cleaning

Near a hotel swimming pool terrace, there is an increased risk of moisture and chemical exposure. Lounger materials must be suitable for regular cleaning and disinfection. Aluminium or steel frame loungers with removable cushions make hygiene maintenance easier. Hotel and SPA centre equipment must meet relevant hygiene requirements.

Seasonality and climate

The climate features an intense but relatively short summer season — May to September. Outdoor furniture must be durable against both summer sun intensity and sudden rain showers. Loungers that dry quickly after rain are more convenient for daily use during the busy season. At the end of the season, it is recommended to store loungers under cover or in a closed space.

Selection by business format

The choice of sun loungers varies depending on the business format and service standard. Budget hotels are suited to functional, easy-to-maintain models with standard upholstery. Higher-category hotels and resorts match premium models with thicker upholstery and more elegant design. SPA centres are suited to wider loungers with more adjustment options. BHS helps choose the right model.

Sunbathing area as a competitive advantage

A well-designed outdoor relaxation area with high-quality sun loungers is an important competitive advantage during the summer tourism season. Guests increasingly choose hotels that provide comfortable outdoor relaxation options with a swimming pool and sunbathing area. Photos with an attractive pool terrace are an effective marketing element in digital channels and booking platforms.

Ordering recommendations

When planning an outdoor terrace setup, it is important to ensure a sufficient number of loungers according to the terrace size and guest capacity. For larger orders, BHS can offer better per-unit prices. It is also recommended to order spare cushions — replacing them is a faster and cheaper solution than replacing the entire lounger. BHS helps calculate the required number of loungers.
