How to Buy Outdoor Furniture for Your Hotel or Restaurant

B ahia Stacking Adjustable Chaise

Buying outdoor furniture for hotels or restaurants involves a bit of a juggling act.

No, we’re not saying you need to literally juggle a bunch of tables and chairs. This the metaphorical kind of juggling, requiring you to find the right mix of appearance, functionality, and durability.

And if you’re going to be entertaining guests outdoors – whether it’s at a hotel, B&B or vacation rental – you’ll want to make sure your exterior furniture is as comfortable as your indoor collection.

Before you buy, here are the three key factors you’ll need to consider.

1. Material

Wood is and easy to clean, typically weather resistant, and denser woods such as teak can resist rot and decay. Wood furniture can also be quite beautiful when its well-maintained.

Rattan’s tight weaves make it extra-comfortable, but you’ll want to make sure it’s protected from the elements with a patio umbrella.

Aluminum offers you a lightweight furniture choice that’s easy to arrange and rearrange. And cast aluminum resists rust, allowing you to use it in any climate.

2. Size and space

If you have a smaller patio or deck, you may want to consider a bistro-style dining set – one table, two chairs. Rounded tables are also an option, as they can fit more people. If you have a more expansive outdoor space, you can go with a large rectangular table.

3. Table tops

Wooden table tops require the least work, as they can be wiped clean with some mild soap. Metal can be even easier to clean, but metal tables can become uncomfortably hot after some time in the sun, so keep them in the shade, or under a patio umbrella.

Glass tabletops are pretty and easy to clean, but also fragile, so use them in covered areas, and move them indoors during colder months.
