Working with O’Reilly & Associates on The House Hotel interiors was a very exciting project for our company. The brief called for a complete renovation and upgrade of one of Galway’s oldest hotels. Our scope of works included the public areas, restaurant, and bar in addition to the luxury suite bedrooms.

Bold interiors with an eclectic mix

The client requested an eclectic mix for The House Hotel interiors, with strong colour combinations and textural variation. Like in every home, the key was creating welcoming, comfortable spaces, laced with a strong upmarket influence.

Once again all furniture items were sourced, procured and manufactured in South Africa and installed by our teams. Proudly South African! The House Hotel and its bold interiors was a first in Galway – first Boutique Hotel. As a result, it received rave reviews at the time of its opening.

The House Hotel suites featured a fusion of chic contemporary and traditional elements.

We decided to carry the eclectic, bright and quirky interior style of the reception lounge into the public restrooms.
