If you are the lucky owner of a house that is big enough to have a spare room, the normal thing is to use it as a guest room. Very often when we do a re-decoration of the house, maybe because we see it as one of the rooms we use least or maybe because of lack of budget, we may neglect the guest bedroom. However, it is a pretty important room, as it is this bedroom your guests will keep in their memories when thinking about your house. As well as this, it can also add value to your house as it is another room you have made useful and attractive for prospective buyers. If you feel a bit lost and don’t know where to start with it, here we give you some tips on how you can create a stunning guest room. 

Start With A Pleasant Bed

This is the main item in the room, and a very important one for your guests. If you want them to enjoy their stay at your place, you will need a comfy bed to make sure your guests have a nice sleep. Of course the best would be a king size bed but this logically depends on the size of the bedroom. Besides the size there is also the mattress, which you need to make sure is of good quality. You can visit a Tempur-pedic store and take a look at what they have to offer, as memory foam mattresses are very popular.

Furniture

When designing a guest room you need to have in mind your potential visitors and how you can make life easier for them. The furniture you put in the room needs to help you in that. Because of this, we advise the main items you need to have are bedside tables and storage. Bedside tables are great for your guests when in bed – they can leave books, glasses of water and of course their mobiles phones. Add also a wardrobe where the visitors can leave their belongings. Chairs and hooks work also as additional storage where they can leave jackets or other belongings they could need right away. These objects can be also useful as additional storage for you when the bedroom is not in use.

Lightning

It is crucial to get as much as natural light as possible, as this helps to create a peaceful and calming feeling. When adding artificial light, make sure it is pleasant. If you have bedside tables you can add some lamps. Some string lights are strongly recommended to create an atmosphere in the bedroom.

Floors

Because this room is not one that you will give much use, it won’t receive the same amount of footfall as other rooms. This means you can feel free when choosing the floor without fear of it becoming damaged. One of the most popular choices is oak flooring – this hardwood floor lasts a lifetime and adds sophistication to any room.

As you can see, it is not difficult to get a stunning guest room that will impress your guests!
