How Hotels Are Slashing Renovation Costs and Downtime with Samsung Interior Film | Surfex Film UK
Guests today want stylish rooms, modern finishes, and peaceful stays. But for hotels, renovating can mean lost income, messy work, and weeks of downtime. How do you upgrade guest rooms, wardrobes, lift interiors, or fire doors without disturbing guests or losing money? Many hotels across the UK have already found the answer. They are cutting renovation costs and keeping rooms open, all while refreshing their look.
The solution? Samsung Interior Film; a smart, fast, and cost-saving way to transform hotel interiors. Let’s explore how this product helps hoteliers refresh their space, save money, and impress guests.
What Is Samsung Interior Film?
Samsung Interior Film is a self-adhesive wrap that sticks to existing surfaces. There’s no need to tear out walls, panels, or furniture. You simply apply it directly onto old surfaces. It works on fire doors, wardrobes, walls, headboards, reception desks, and more. The surface gets a new look in just hours with no mess or noise.
There are over 500 finishes available. Choose from woodgrain, marble, metal, matte colors, or even soft fabric textures. These films are fire-rated and made for high-traffic areas like hotels. Instead of spending thousands on full replacement, hotels can now upgrade at a fraction of the cost. And the best part? Guests don’t even notice the work being done.
Why It’s Ideal for the Hospitality Sector
Hotels need to upgrade while keeping operations smooth. That’s where Samsung Interior Film stands out. It solves multiple challenges at once:
Wrap, Not Replace
Apply the film over existing surfaces like fire doors, wardrobes, lift interiors, and reception desks. No need to remove anything.
Keep Rooms in Operation
Installers work quietly and quickly. Rooms can be upgraded in just hours, without disturbing guests.
Reduce Renovation Costs
One UK hotel saved over £30,000 by wrapping doors instead of replacing them. Wrapping costs far less than full replacement.
Sustainably Meet ESG Targets
The wrap helps reduce landfill waste and lowers the carbon footprint of your renovation.
Avoid Contractor Delays
With trained UK-wide teams, the film can be installed during off-hours or in short timeframes.
Hotels don’t need to shut down for weeks. Instead, they can stay open and stylish with this easy-to-use material.
Applications in Hospitality
Many hotels are already using this wrap in creative ways. Whether it’s a small B&B or a large city hotel, the results are stunning:
- Guest room wardrobes & desks: Old furniture is given a new look in just a few hours where no replacements are needed.
- Fire doors: Stay compliant with safety laws while adding a high-end style using fire-rated finishes.
- Lift interiors & architraves: Wraps are applied quickly without shutting down the lift or causing delays.
- Reception areas and concierge desks: Enhance branding with beautiful finishes like stone, woodgrain, or soft matte tones.
- Bars, dining areas & spa rooms: Match your moodboards and design plans without costly rebuilds or joinery work.
No other solution provides this level of design freedom, speed, and cost-saving in hospitality upgrades.
Real-World Case Study: Fire Door Wrap Saves £30,000
A busy Manchester city centre hotel had 75 fire doors that looked scratched and outdated. Replacing them would mean days of loud joinery work and high costs. Plus, they’d need new fire safety checks. Instead, they used Samsung Interior Film in a Textured Oak Fire-Rated Finish.
Each door looked fresh and matched the hotel's branding. Fire safety standards were maintained, and guests stayed undisturbed. Here’s what the hotel achieved:
- Timeframe: 3 days
- Cost Saving: Over £30,000
- Guest Disruption: Zero
All work was done between guest checkout and check-in. No loud work. No closed hallways. Just smooth & quiet upgrades.
Guest reviews improved. People noticed the clean & uniform look. That small change helped boost the hotel's online reputation, all without closing a single room.
Trusted by Hoteliers & Hospitality Engineers
Many hotel professionals rely on Samsung Interior Film to meet high standards in design, speed, and budget. It’s trusted by:
- General managers and asset teams planning large refurbishments
- Facilities and maintenance teams doing fast, affordable upgrades
- Architects and interior designers who need modern and stylish finishes
- Branding teams working on uniform looks across multiple hotels
And with SOIF’s UK-wide installation network, every project is handled with care and professionalism. Whether you're upgrading five rooms or 400, the result is always sleek, safe, and fast. This wrap isn't just for one-time fixes. It's used in ongoing upgrades, large brand refreshes, and even new hotel builds.
Why This Matters for Today’s Hotels
The hotel industry moves fast. Guest expectations rise every year. Outdated rooms and furniture can affect bookings and reviews. But closing rooms for full renovations can cost more than the upgrade itself.
That’s why so many hotels are now using types of architectural film like Samsung Interior Film. It gives surfaces a brand-new look without construction noise or room closures.
It helps maintain high standards while saving money. It also supports sustainability goals by keeping large items like wardrobes, fire doors, and panels out of landfills. This smart method allows hotels to stay open, keep guests happy, and still look fresh and modern.

The product is easy to apply, offers over 500 design finishes, and keeps operations smooth. It's being used in guest rooms, fire doors, wardrobes, lift interiors, bars, and reception desks.
The success of the Textured Oak Fire-Rated Finish in Manchester proves how powerful this solution is. That project saved thousands, took just three days, and kept guests fully comfortable. As hotels face growing demand for style, service, and sustainability, this smart wrap helps them meet all three without downtime. It’s time to wrap, not replace. Use a solution that respects your brand, your budget, and your guests.
