About Erik The Red Guesthouse
Iceland attracts tourists from all over the world with its unique natural beauty and rich history and culture. Their number in the land of fire and ice grows each year. Therefore, it is interesting to know that there are less than 350 thousand Icelanders, while the number of tourists in the past year was more than 2 million.
With the growth of tourism, the need for quality accommodation, such as Erik The Red Guesthouse, also grows. This charming little hotel, named after the Viking explorer who discovered Greenland, opened its doors in 1990.
Located in the heart of Reykjavik, the northernmost capital city in the world, the hotel is fully booked all year round. “We offer a warm welcome and comfortable accommodation to tourists from many countries, and there are also some Icelanders,” says the owner, Mr. Georg.
Challenges: Specific weather conditions
One of the main aspects of the hotel business is the maintenance of impeccable hygiene of the hotel laundry, and, therefore, Mr. Georg decided to look for an ideal solution for drying it in the harsh conditions of the North.
“Drying laundry in Iceland is very challenging due to the specific weather conditions. Temperatures below zero, frequent rainfall, snow, humidity in the air, etc. – it all makes this process extremely difficult” he explains.
Solution: No worries with LG Titan professional dryer
On the recommendation of a friend, he contacted our team and presented his wishes and needs.
Considering the dynamic tourist season that lasts throughout the year, full capacities, and constant shifts of guests, he needed dryers that would perform this job quickly and with quality.
According to our advice, he decided on LG Professional Titan dryers (14 kg capacity), and they turned out to be a complete hit.
“What I like the most about LG Titan professional dryers is that they are designed to dry a large amount of laundry, which is a necessity in my hotel business! This gives me confidence they will not stop working and leave us in chaos.”
