When you have guests in your home, it’s your job to make them feel welcome and comfortable. A vital component of this is the bedroom where they will be sleeping. White House Designs for Life has some easy guest bedroom ideas to make your guests feel like they’re at a 5-star hotel.
A Comfortable Bed
The bed is the most crucial component in your guest bedroom. Quality sleep is essential for your health and mental well-being, especially while traveling. We recommend splurging on the largest bed that will work in the room without making it too snug. Remember that a high thread count goes a long way towards a good night of sleep and buy linens accordingly.
A Cozy Chair
Everyone needs a moment to themselves at times, and having a cozy recliner for your guests to kick back and relax in will be appreciated. Many people feel uncomfortable sitting on a bed, and there’s no reason they should have to. Add a quaint side table with a small lamp for your guests so they can enjoy reading or catch up on emails.
Make Some Space
Who has ever thought they need more drawer space? That’s right; everyone has. Even if your houseguests will be staying for a short time, they won’t want their clothes laid out all over the room. If you don’t already have one, consider adding a chest of drawers to the space.
Perfect Timing
Even in the age of smartphones and watches, your guests may want to know the time without having to look at a device. We suggest a stately wall clock or smaller table clock in the room to make it easier for your guests to keep track of the time.
Preserve Privacy
Perhaps you’ve never put much thought into the window treatments in your guest room. Now is the perfect time. We carry the full line of Hunter Douglas custom window treatments to beautifully adorn any window. Consider sheer shades paired with blinds to provide sufficient daytime privacy as well as light control at night.
Easy Entertainment
We can assure you that your guests will appreciate an entertainment center in their room. Many people enjoy watching a show or movie before they fall asleep, and this will allow your guests to do so without disturbing anyone else in your home.
Midnight Snacks
Who hasn’t had a late-night craving for something sweet or salty? Consider placing a small basket with some single serve goodies for your guests to satisfy their midnight cravings in the comfort of their own room.
