Directional signs are important for any business but critical for hotels and resorts. Wayfinding signs help guests find their way around the property, whether looking for the pool, the fitness center, or their room. At FASTSIGNS® of Boise, ID, we make custom sign systems to meet your hotel’s specific needs and match your establishment’s branding.
Benefits of Directional Signs
- Improved Customer Service – Directional signs help guests find their way around, which improves their overall experience and makes them more likely to return in the future.
- Increased Efficiency – Signs also help employees find their way around the property, which improves productivity.
- Reduced Liability – If guests cannot find their way around, they are more likely to get lost or even injured. Directional signs help reduce liability in these situations.
- Ease of Use – Many directional signs can be updated with new information, making it easy to change the signs if needed.
- Versatility – Directional signs are used indoors and outdoors for many different purposes.
- Portability – Some directional signs, such as A-frame signs, and yard signs are lightweight, making it easy to move them to various locations.
Types of Signs Used for Wayfinding
- Banners are large sheets of vinyl with printed graphics displayed using a stand, mounted to a wall, hung from the ceiling, or stretched across an open space. They are a great sign product for promoting events, welcoming a group to a convention, and are an essential part of wayfinding systems.
- A-frame signs are made with plastic or aluminum; they are double-sided and fold via a hinge at the top, so they stand on their own. They are perfect for directing guests to specific events or areas of a hotel property. They are used for posting important wayfinding information both indoor and outdoor.
- Floor graphics are made from durable vinyl and installed with adhesive to the floor. They are designed to handle the wear and tear of being stepped on often. An excellent way to use them is to direct people to the proper desk in the reception/lobby area. They also work well in the pool area to display “Slippery When Wet” notices and more.
- Window graphics are easy to apply to the inside or outside of any window using adhesive or static cling. Window graphics are used in hotels and motels to welcome guests, promote amenities, and create privacy.
- Vinyl wall graphics are made from high-quality vinyl printed with custom graphics and then applied to the wall with an adhesive. Adding graphics to the walls in a hotel lobby is a great way to showcase the hotel’s logo and create a strong branded area when guests first enter the building. Including arrows in the graphics is common for directing guests to their rooms and other places like conference and exhibit areas. They can also be effective to add visual interest to any space.
