Armchair, "chair with rests for the elbows," 1630s, from arm + chair. Another old name for it was elbow-chair (1650s). Adjectival sense, in reference to "criticism of matters in which the critic takes no active part," is from 1886.

One idea of comfort seems to be the absence of any muscular effort, a concept that leads to a new sort of “chair”, one that resembles what most of us would recognize as a bed.

As an alternative to “complete physical relaxation” as the definition of comfort, perhaps a better definition of comfort would be “sitting in the best posture for the task at hand”. In this view the most important function of a chair is to help one find and sustain such a posture. 

Hotel rooms are usually where guests spend the bulk of their time. For this reason, the armchair becomes a pivotal piece of furniture that can have a significant influence on a guest’s stay.

Upholstered armchairs are usually made of three elements: the frame, the upholstery materials and the covering. Each of these components is fundamental in a quality armchair that will please even the most sophisticated guests.

While a quality frame ensures that the piece is solid and sturdy, the covering adds versatility. The same structure can be adapted to various furnishing styles using different armchair coverings and pillows with changeable covers.
