Hanger solutions for hotel rooms

Very cool way of hanging and putting away things, perfect for hotel rooms so we don’t need cupboards!  

Hotel Droog’s massage space

Hotel uses reusable jars to serve jam

A great way to reduce waste at the hotel breakfast table without sacrificing comfort: refillable glass containers as seen at Casa Camper in Berlin!
