There are an estimated 33.6 million spare bedrooms in American households. How you style your spare bedroom will determine not only how it’s used but how comfortable it is to use it.
If you want to turn your spare bedroom into a guest bedroom, you’ve come to the right place. The key to a great guest bedroom is comfort. You want to strike the balance between feeling neutral and homey to ensure that it’s an inviting space.
We’ve got modern guest bedroom ideas that will help you turn that spare room into a home away from home for loved ones and paid guests alike.
Read on as we talk about the best ways to design and style your guest bedroom.
First thing’s first: you can’t expect to use the spare bedroom as both storage and a space for guests. Clear off surfaces like dressers or nightstands of all your collections or knick-knacks, leaving behind a few pieces of guest bedroom decor, a clock, and bedside lamps. If possible, clear out the closet and provide hangers and at least one luggage rack for suitcases.
If you want guests to enjoy their stay, it’s time to upgrade the furniture and linens. We have a tendency to upgrade our own spaces and use the old stuff to furnish the guest room. If you don’t want to buy all new furniture, consider leasing your guest bedroom furniture; this gives you typically longer and cheaper options to make any space luxurious.
Make sure that your guests have plenty of privacy when they come to stay with you. Hang blinds and curtains on the windows and make sure that the door latches tightly, especially if you have kids or pets that tend to wander around. If you intend to rent your guest bedroom out, you should also install a lock on the door if you haven’t already.
Nowadays, we all have at least one device that we depend on for just about everything. Make sure that you provide easy access to multiple outlets, either by leaving them exposed or by plugging in power strips that guests can use. If possible, make sure that guests can charge their phones on their bedside tables and always provide the WiFi password as soon as guests arrive.
Your spare bedroom has the potential to become a luxurious guest bedroom that friends, loved ones, and paying visitors will enjoy. With these modern guest bedroom ideas, you can transform that spare room into a dreamy oasis, regardless of how big, small, or cluttered it currently is.
