Whether it is family or friends, having a spare guest bedroom can ensure your guests are comfortable during their stay. To make sure your guests feel at home, you’ll need to set up the perfect guest bedroom. Here are some tips to help you create a cozy and inviting space for your guests!

1. Choose the Right Bed

The bed is the center point of any bedroom. A guest bed should be comfortable, supportive, and large enough to accommodate different sleeping preferences. We typically recommend a Queen-sized bed, as it can comfortably sleep two adults.

Along with the bedframe, you’ll also want a comfortable mattress that’s durable and reliable. Lastly, fresh linens and plenty of pillows can make the bed a relaxing oasis away from home for your guest!

2. Provide Ample Storage Space

Your guests will appreciate having a place to store their luggage and belongings. Make sure to provide ample storage space, such as a closet or dresser. If your guest room doesn’t have a built-in closet, consider adding a portable wardrobe or free-standing rack. Be sure to also provide hangers!

To get the most value for your money, consider purchasing a bedroom furniture set that includes anywhere from 5 to 8 individual furniture pieces, including the bed itself, dresser, nightstands, and possibly additional dressers, vanity, or drawers. This is the best option if you need to furnish the entire room from scratch and provide enough storage space for your guest to enjoy.

3. Add Extra Seating

Having a comfortable place to sit is always a plus in any room. Consider adding a comfortable chair or loveseat, especially if your guest room is spacious. A small table or nightstand next to the seating area can also be a nice touch.

4. Consider Lighting

Make sure your guest bedroom has adequate lighting, including bedside lamps or wall sconces. You may also want to add dimmer switches so that guests can adjust the lighting to their preference. Natural light is always a plus, so consider adding curtains or shades that can be easily adjusted.

5. Make It Cozy

The goal of any guest bedroom is to create a comfortable and inviting space. Add soft blankets, throw pillows, and a rug to make the room feel cozy. Consider adding a few personal touches, such as framed photos or artwork, to make your guests feel at home.

6. Provide essential and practical amenities

Make sure your guest room is stocked with essential amenities, such as extra towels, toiletries, and a hairdryer. A small basket of snacks and water bottles can also be a nice touch. If your guests will be staying for an extended period, consider providing a small refrigerator or coffee maker.

Small details also make a big difference when it comes to creating a welcoming guest room. Consider adding a few books or magazines for guests to read. And don't forget to provide a notepad and pen for guests to jot down any notes or reminders.
