Therefore, it is natural that hotels located in such buildings strive to maintain the integrity of the style and choose an interior that matches the spirit of that era, filled with ornate moldings. Meanwhile, hotels located further from the city center and other entertainment complexes choose an elegant interior decorated with moldings for a different criterion – in order to reflect services oriented to people with higher incomes.
