Pain Points

Common challenges for Hotels / Resorts

Guests have no privacy during their stay

Sexy Bathroom glass on show · a clear-glass bedroom seen from the balcony · a Pool Villa with no walls · curtains look dated · premium guests expect one-button privacy on demand

Humid hotel bathrooms · ordinary film degrades

Hotel bathrooms shower 24/7 · high humidity · ordinary smart film absorbs water and degrades in 2–3 years · needs Aquaris™ weather resistance that withstands spa-grade humidity · +80% longer lifespan than the market PDLC baseline

Sun-blasted lobby · AC overwhelmed

A tall-glass lobby façade in full sun · IR heat pouring in · a heavy AC load · concierge working in the heat · you want switchable glass that turns opaque when the sun is harsh · Smart Glass Premium tier · Tempered Laminated blocks 99.99% IR

A 5-star experience must create a wow moment

After check-in, how will the guest remember the hotel? · glass switching clear ↔ opaque in 0.1 s in a Sexy Bathroom · Pool Villa · ballroom = a signature memorable moment · Instagram-worthy · it affects reviews + rebooking rate

Hygiene · hotel curtains harbour germs

Hotel curtains washed once a year · accumulate dust mites, bacteria · guest-allergy complaint risk · Smart Film is a smooth surface · holds no dust · easy for housekeeping to wipe · clean-grade, fit for 5-star standard

No link to the Hotel Management System

Modern hotels run on PMS · Crestron · KNX · in-room tablet · InHouse Smart Film/Smart Glass syncs with the whole system · guests use the tablet to control the bathroom mode · housekeeping schedules it clear at check-in / opaque at check-out · plus AI voice control

Luxury Hospitality · Why Now

Since 2023, 5-star hotels and luxury resorts in Thailand — Four Seasons · Pullman G Silom · Dusit Thani Hua Hin · Banyan Tree Bangkok · Botanica Luxury Villas · Rosewood · Capella — have installed Smart Film or switchable Smart Glass as a signature amenity · not just about privacy, but a booking-rate multiplier · Tripadvisor reviews mentioning the Sexy Bathroom genuinely raise ADR

Signature experience · ADR +15–25%

A Sexy Bathroom that switches clear ↔ opaque at one button = an Instagram moment every guest photographs · hotels with this amenity charge 15–25% more · higher repeat booking · positive reviews on OTA platforms

Aquaris™ · withstands spa-grade humidity

Ordinary smart film degrades in 2–3 years in a hotel bathroom · InHouse's Aquaris™ withstands 99% RH humidity · resists pool chlorine · +80% longer lifespan than the market PDLC baseline · no frequent servicing that disrupts guests

Hotel Management integration

Syncs with PMS · Opera · Crestron · KNX · guests control from an in-room tablet · housekeeping sets scene modes (Welcome / Turn-down / Spa) · AI voice in Thai + English + Chinese

Blocks 99.99% IR/UV · saves on AC

Lobby · rooftop bar · pool cabana in full sun all day · Smart Glass / Smart Film block IR to cut AC load 25–35% · real, year-round hotel bill savings · furniture doesn't fade · lower maintenance budget

12–15+ year lifespan · ROI 1–2 years

Khun Joe (Cafe Amazon) — Instant Cafe-Zone Privacy in a Split Second

Cafe Amazon, Ao Noi Ta Mong Lai branch, Prachuap Khiri Khan

Client brief

At this Cafe Amazon branch we wanted to create something fresh for the customers who come in. At times we want the seating zone to feel more private, but we didn't want curtains that collect dust easily. So we looked for something that switches the glass opaque or clear instantly, to match real usage.

Result after installation

The shop looks modern with a new selling point / adjust private space conveniently at your fingertips

Real client review
"I wanted to create something fresh for this Cafe Amazon branch. After installing smart film, at times I press opaque to give the seating zone privacy, and switch it clear to make it a photo spot for customers — no dust-collecting curtains needed. Adjust it at your fingertips; the shop looks modern with a new selling point."

Aman Nai Lert — A Luxury-Grade Premium Bathroom

Aman Nai Lert — A Luxury-Grade Premium Bathroom

Nai Lert Park project, Pathum Wan, Bangkok

Client brief

We wanted to give guests an experience beyond the ordinary, especially in the bathroom, where a large glass pane shows off the city view — but it had to become private the instant guests need it. Above all, we wanted to cut the burden of cleaning easily-damp fabric blinds, to maintain the highest cleanliness standard at all times.

Result after installation

A clean bathroom free of residue build-up / switch to private mode instantly for confidence

Real client review
"I have to say, choosing InHouse was the right call. The bathroom works exactly as intended, we got the privacy we hoped for, and guest feedback keeps improving."

Citin Pratunam – Hospitality Upgrade

Pratunam, Ratchathewi District, Bangkok

Client brief

We wanted to modernize the guest-room image with an open, airy sexy-bathroom feel, while keeping 100% privacy. The big problem was that bathroom blinds tend to accumulate mold and are very hard to clean.

Result after installation

The mold problem gone for good / guest rooms instantly more open, spacious, and luxurious

Real client review
"We wanted to modernize the guest-room image with a sexy-bathroom feel while keeping full privacy. The old problem was bathroom blinds developing mold and being hard to clean. After smart film, the mold problem is gone, the rooms look more open, spacious, and premium, and guest feedback has improved."

Real client review
"We elevated the guest rooms to be more luxurious and modern. With the Sexy Bathroom smart film, guests switch it opaque for privacy and clear to pull the sea view into the room.

Pullman Hotel — Luxury Bathroom Show Room

Pullman Phuket Karon Beach Resort, Mueang District, Phuket

Client brief

As a 5-star luxury hotel, we wanted our hundreds of guest rooms to have a modern sexy bathroom that impresses guests instantly. Crucially, it must not have the mold and bacteria buildup of traditional blinds.

Result after installation

Full 100% privacy / luxurious, modern guest rooms

Real client review
"Installing sexy-bathroom smart film in our hotel guest rooms exceeded expectations. The bathroom looks modern, befitting 5 stars, and guests are impressed. The smooth glass surface doesn't build up mold or water stains like the old blinds. The InHouse team worked at night without disrupting service, and concealed the wiring so neatly guests hardly know there's film."

Sirathana Engineering — Smart Film for a Ballroom
Smart Film 72 sqm 3 days 5.0

Sirathana Engineering — Smart Film for a Ballroom

Head office, Ramkhamhaeng 118, Bangkok

Client brief

Our ballroom has large glass walls. We used one-way film before, but at night with the lights on, people outside could still see in. We wanted an option we could press for real privacy, both day and night.

Result after installation

Press opaque to block the view completely, day and night / every event stays private

Real client review
"After installation I'm really impressed. At night with the lights on for an event, one press to opaque and people outside can't see in at all; press clear and the garden and city view are beautiful. Every guest at the event admires it. The room clearly looks more luxurious and private."
