How many mirrors for a 100-room hotel?
A 100-room hotel requires between 100 and 120 mirrors, depending on room configuration. The base figure is one mirror per bathroom — 100 rooms, 100 ensuites, 100 mirrors. The addition of 10–20 units above that baseline accounts for suites with double vanities, accessible rooms with specific mounting requirements, and any public bathroom areas that are within scope of the fit-out specification.
Breaking down the mirror count
The typical breakdown for a 100-room hotel project runs as follows. Approximately 70 rooms are standard ensuites — single vanity, one mirror per room. These are specified to a consistent standard: same model, same size, same CCT, same finish. The VLM-02 or VLM-04 round demister model is the common choice for this category in contemporary Australian hotel fit-outs, where a clean round form reads as premium without carrying a design premium in unit cost.
Approximately 20 rooms are suites or superior rooms with a higher specification bathroom. These often include a feature mirror rather than a standard model — the VLFR-01 round framed or the VLM-07 arch in brushed gold or brushed black. Some superior suites have double vanities, which means two mirrors per room. If 10 of these 20 rooms have double vanities, the suite allocation runs to 30 mirrors rather than 20.
Approximately 10 rooms are accessible rooms, designed to meet Australian Standard AS 1428.1 requirements. Accessible bathrooms have different mounting height requirements — typically lower than standard to accommodate wheelchair users — and often have a demister as a specific requirement because accessible guests may spend more time in the bathroom than standard guests. The mirror specification for accessible rooms is typically the same model as the standard ensuite, specified with demister and installed to the correct mounting height. A qualified electrician with accessible design experience should confirm the mounting height for each property’s specific accessible room layout.
Additional considerations that increase the count
The 100–120 range accounts for the standard room types described above. There are additional considerations that can increase the count depending on the property. Lobby or corridor powder rooms, if within the fit-out scope, add to the total. Some hotels include mirrors in gym or spa changing rooms — these are typically a different specification (larger rectangular or frameless) but are still within the supply scope. Presidential suites or penthouses may have multiple bathroom areas, each requiring a mirror.
For a definitive mirror count, the most reliable method is to count bathrooms directly from the floor plan rather than from the room count. VUELUXE can work from a schedule of areas provided by the project architect or project manager — provide the bathroom count by type and configuration, and VUELUXE will return a specification schedule with model recommendations for each room type and a total unit count with pricing.
Typical specification mix for a 100-room hotel
Based on the above breakdown, a 100-room hotel order with VUELUXE typically looks like this. Standard ensuites: 70 units of VLM-04 round with demister, 600mm diameter, brushed black frame, 4000K CCT. Superior rooms and suites: 20 units of VLFR-01 round framed with demister, 700×900mm, brushed gold frame, 4000K CCT. Suite double vanities: 10 additional units of VLFR-01 round framed (same specification as superior room allocation). Accessible rooms: 10 units of VLM-04 round with demister (same as standard ensuite specification, confirmed mounting height).
This is an illustrative mix, not a fixed template. The actual specification will depend on the hotel’s design brief, tapware finish selections, and CCT preference. VUELUXE does not impose a standard specification — the recommendation is built from the property’s design intent and operational requirements.
Container delivery for 100-room hotel projects
An order in the 100–120 unit range sits at the threshold between warehouse stock fulfilment and factory-direct supply. For standard models, VUELUXE Adelaide warehouse stock can typically fulfil a 100-unit order with a 5–10 business day lead time. For factory-direct supply — which is appropriate when the order includes custom finishes or non-standard sizes, or when the procurement manager wants to optimise unit cost — the lead time is 10–14 weeks, and the delivery can be split across multiple site addresses if the project has a staged fit-out schedule.
For hotel projects that are part of a portfolio — a developer building multiple properties simultaneously — container-level purchasing across the portfolio may be appropriate. VUELUXE can split a container order across multiple delivery addresses, with each address receiving a separate consignment. The logistics of a split container delivery are discussed at the quote stage.
How to submit a hotel project inquiry
Submit your hotel project inquiry through the VUELUXE trade portal. Provide the property name (or project reference), total room count, bathroom configuration by room type, preferred model and finish (or ask VUELUXE to recommend based on the design brief), required delivery date, and delivery address. VUELUXE will return a formal quote within one business day covering per-unit pricing, total order value, freight, and lead time options.
For large hotel projects, a pre-quote consultation call is available. This is useful for projects with complex specifications — multiple room types, accessible room requirements, phased delivery — where a direct conversation is more efficient than a written brief. Contact the VUELUXE trade team to arrange a call.
