Traditional dining chairs

Some hotel restaurants want the chair a guest expects in a grand dining room: a wood frame, a familiar back, perhaps a padded seat. These 121 traditional chairs are mostly wood, with metal and wood-look frames among them.

Traditional restaurant chairs

Plan the room around the changeover

Start with the seat count for the room and the way your team will set it. Then read the listed dimensions, the frame and the seat options, and whether a model is marked as stackable. A ballroom, a restaurant and a terrace each deserve their own line, so the order reads the way the property is laid out.

Classic backs, from ladder rails to crossed slats, sit well in a paneled hotel dining room, so pick one back within traditional restaurant chairs and repeat it across the room.

Read the footprint

Compare the listed overall width and depth with the space at your table. Armrests, the table apron, and the chair back all affect how the chair fits into the arrangement.

Choose the frame and seat

Look at the seat option separately from the frame finish. Open the product to see which combinations are offered and how the selected options affect the price.

Property plans

Some hotel restaurants want the chair a guest expects in a grand dining room: a wood frame, a familiar back, perhaps a padded seat. These 121 traditional chairs are mostly wood, with metal and wood-look frames among them. Choose the back first, because the back is what guests see across the room when the doors open.

Backs that set the tone

Forty-four chairs have an upholstered back. Ladder backs, vertical slats and curved backs come next with eleven each, followed by nine cross backs and seven window backs. In a room of thirty tables the same back repeats more than a hundred times. A ladder back keeps a long room light and open; an upholstered back makes it quieter and more formal. Walk the room in your mind from the host stand: the chairs nearest the door set the tone for everything behind them, so choose the back that suits the first six tables a guest passes. For more of one shape, see ladder-back chairs and cross-back chairs.

Wood, metal and the seat

Wood frames number 71 and metal 26, and 20 more wear a wood-look finish over aluminum or metal. Seat covers are where this group gives the most choice: vinyl on 115 chairs, fabric on 83, wood seats on 59, and 100 chairs take a cover from the listed options. Ask for free samples of the cover and the wood stain together, and judge them side by side. Thirty-two chairs have arms, for the head table or the ends of a private dining table.

A wood dining chair at $102 and an upholstered dining chair at $214 show the spread. Single chairs start around $68 and reach $347.

A dining room chair, not an event chair

Only eight chairs in this group stack. Traditional chairs belong in a room that stays set, the hotel restaurant or the breakfast room, rather than a ballroom that resets twice a day; for that work, look at banquet chairs. Seat heights run from 17 to 19 1/2 inches, for tables of standard dining height, and most chairs here are listed for indoor use only. Plan the restaurant and the private dining room as two rooms in one property plan, so the order covers both at once. Add a few spare chairs to the count; a matching chair is easier to bring out of storage than to reorder two years later, when finishes may have changed.
