beach house decorAre you getting ready for your first guests of the season? If so, you may be wondering how to set up your guest room. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! In this blog post, we will discuss some expert tips for setting up the perfect guest room. Whether you’re looking for ideas on how to decorate or what amenities to provide, we have you covered. So sit back and relax, and let us help you get ready for your guests!

Here you can find a list of tips for setting up a perfect guest room:

  • Start With a Comfy Bed
  • Add a Small Chest or Dresser With Open Drawer Space
  • Create a Rest Area for Travel Gear
  • Go Easy on Decor and Accessories
  • Brighten Things Up
  • Layer On Creature Comforts

Start With a Comfy Bed

A good night’s sleep is crucial for your guests to enjoy their stay, so make sure you start with a comfortable bed. If you have the budget, zip and link beds are a great option as they can be separated into two single beds or pulled together to form a double. Add some plump pillows and soft sheets, and your guests will be guaranteed a good night’s sleep.

Add a Small Chest or Dresser With Open Drawer Space

If you don’t have a lot of extra space in your guest room, consider adding a small chest or dresser with some open drawer space. This way, your guests will have somewhere to store their belongings and you won’t have to worry about them taking up too much space in your room. You can find these chests and dressers at most furniture stores or online retailers. Just make sure to measure the space in your room before you purchase anything so you know it will fit!

Create a Rest Area for Travel Gear

No matter how much space you have in your home, it’s important to create a dedicated spot for travel gear. This will make it easier for guests to find what they need, and it will help you keep the rest of your house tidy. 

First, choose a location that is out of the way but still easily accessible. A closet or corner of a room is usually a good choice. Then, designate some shelves or bins for guests to use for their belongings. Be sure to label them so that everyone knows where everything goes. Finally, stock the area with essentials like extra towels, sheets, and pillows.

Go Easy on Decor and Accessories

Your guest room should be a haven for visitors, not a display case for your collection of knick-knacks. A few carefully chosen pieces of artwork or a vase of fresh flowers are all you need to create a welcoming space. Keep the tone serene and avoid overwhelming your guests with too many patterns or colors. And don’t forget the basics – make sure there’s a reading lamp and an alarm clock within easy reach. By following these simple tips, you can be sure that your guests will have everything they need for a comfortable stay.

Layer On Creature Comforts

You want your guests to feel at home, so make sure your guest room is outfitted with all the creature comforts they might need. A cozy bed with plenty of pillows, a soft throw blanket, and a reading lamp are essential. You might also want to include a small table and chair for them to use as a workspace, as well as an alarm clock and a few books or magazines. And don’t forget the basics like fresh towels and toiletries! By providing your guests with everything they need, you can be sure they’ll have a comfortable stay.

Brighten Things Up

The guest room is often one of the darkest rooms in the house, which can make it feel uninviting and dreary. To help brighten things up, add a few lamps or hang some fairy lights around the room. You could also try painting the walls a light, airy color like a white or pale blue. And don’t forget to open up the curtains during the day to let in as much natural light as possible!

Supply a Set of Keys 

Do you want to be a good host and make sure your guests feel comfortable during their stay? Then one thing you definitely don’t want to forget is a set of keys! This way, they can come and go as they please without having to bother you.

If you have a spare key, great! If not, it’s not a big deal either. You can always give them a copy of your house key or hide a key somewhere on the property. Just make sure to let them know where it is so they can find it easily when they need it.

Keys are just one small detail that can make a big difference in making your guests feel welcome and comfortable. So don’t forget about them!

Provide Snacks to Enjoy 

Your guests will be hungry when they arrive, so make sure to have snacks available for them to enjoy. This can be anything from a simple bowl of fruit to a more elaborate cheese plate. You should also have drinks available, both non-alcoholic and alcoholic options. If you want to go the extra mile, you could even prepare small meals for your guests to enjoy during their stay. Just make sure you ask about any dietary restrictions in advance! 

Leave Good Reading at Hand

When guests come to stay, it’s always nice to have a few good books on hand in the guest room. This way, if they find themselves with some downtime, they can easily reach for a book and enjoy some quiet reading. Be sure to choose books that would appeal to a wide range of interests, so that no matter who your guest is, they’re sure to find something they’ll enjoy. A mix of fiction and non-fiction works well, as does including both classics and more contemporary titles.

Whether you’re expecting out-of-town family for the holidays or hosting friends for a weekend getaway, having a comfortable and inviting guest room is key to making your visitors feel at home. By following these simple tips, you can turn any room in your house into the perfect space for your guests.
