THE ULTIMATE GUEST ROOM
7 ESSENTIAL CRITERIA FOR CREATING THE PERFECT GUEST ROOM
(JUST IN TIME FOR THE HOLIDAY SEASON)
With the holiday season just around the corner, many of us are gearing up to welcome friends and family into our homes. One key element to ensure a warm and inviting stay for your guests is a thoughtfully curated guest room. We're excited to share some expert tips on how to put together the best guest room for an unforgettable experience.
Comfort is Key - Start with a comfortable mattress and quality bedding. Invest in soft, high-thread-count sheets, and provide a variety of pillows to accommodate different preferences. A cozy blanket or throw adds an extra layer of warmth.
Personal Touches - Make your guests feel special by adding personal touches to the room. Consider placing fresh flowers, a welcome note, or a small basket of snacks. Include essentials like tissues, a water carafe, and perhaps a good book for some bedtime reading.
Storage Solutions - Clear out unnecessary clutter from the room and provide ample storage space for your guests' belongings. A luggage rack, empty closet space, and a few hangers make it easy for guests to unpack and settle in.
Ambiance Matters - Pay attention to the lighting in the room. A mix of ambient, task, and accent lighting can create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Consider adding a bedside lamp for late-night reading and a dimmer switch for adjustable lighting.
Tech Friendly Amenities - Ensure your guests stay connected by providing easily accessible power outlets, Wi-Fi information, and perhaps a universal charger. A small Bluetooth speaker or an alarm clock with USB ports can be thoughtful additions.
Quality Toiletries - Stock the guest bathroom with high-quality toiletries, including shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and extra toothbrushes. A scented candle or some essential oils can add a spa-like touch.
Privacy and Security - Ensure your guests feel secure and have the option for privacy. Quality curtains or blinds, as well as a lock on the door, contribute to a sense of safety.
Remember, the goal is to create a home away from home for your guests. By incorporating these tips, you'll be well on your way to providing a memorable and comfortable experience for anyone staying in your guest room.
