The holiday season is coming – is your home ready for overnight guests? Follow these suggestions to create the perfect guest room for friends and family.
Approaches for Designing the Ideal Guest Room
1. Offer reading material
A pile of the latest magazines or even a shelf of various books offers guests ways to wind down before going to sleep.
2. Add flowers
A simple floral arrangement adds class and color to any room.
3. Provide seating
Ensure that there’s somewhere cozy for guests to sit if they need some alone time during holiday chaos.
4. Make wi-fi connection easy
Leave a piece of paper with the internet server’s name and password on the dresser so guests can simply access your wireless connection.
5. Did they forget something?
Fill a basket with sample-sized containers of essentials, like toothpaste, mouthwash and shampoo.
6. Add a luggage stand
Put out a folding luggage stand where guests can prop their suitcases to prevent having to squat all the way down to the floor every time they need something.
7. Make the closet functional
Be sure to stock the closet with empty hangers for guest’s clothes.
8. Add charm with decorations
Produce a welcoming, calm space for guests. Err on the side of generic. Remember, not every person wants to sleep surrounded by Star Wars-themed decorations or even your horror movie poster collection.
9. A picture perfect welcome
Place a framed photo of you and your guest on the nightstand.
