Hotel Chic



Hotel Subur Sitges with it's  exuberant passion for raffia mat wall hangings. We usually stay at The Plaja D'or, not this time, it was fully booked as was the Calipolis, the Subur was the only available hotel. We took the risk and booked it.



 Thinking of decorating? Looking for home decor ideas? For inspiration look no further than the exquisite interior of  the Surbur Hotel in Sitges that offers an insight into the lives of Bill Sykes and Nancy. We took it in turns to sit in that chair, it was the only place in the room that picked up the internet.




Room with a view, I didn't mind slumming it for a few days until the new upgraded room became available.

After 4 days we were able to move to a sea view room. Only 2 raffia mats in this room, goes together well with the tropical bamboo mirror frames, bed for communal fu sleeping.

Close up view of that wall mounted mat from the old room.

On loan from the Pompidou in Paris.

Nothing riles me more than seeing dried flower arrangements in hotel rooms, absolutely fine in your own home if you're that way inclined, but what purpose do they serve,  other than taking up valuable table space. where am I supposed to recharge my ipad with that clunky thing in the way.


This is the breakfast room of the 3* Subur hotel in Sitges, this is what I had to endure for the past 14 days, here I would sit and gaze wistfully at the ceiling in a pose of a Pre-Raphaelite muse, The Lady of Shallot.



The hotel's party line, oh the things you hear through the bathroom air vents, makes me blush just thinking about it.

 

What do you do with your old raffia table mats, make an interesting wall feature of them of course. 


Nice views with a wrap around balcony.
