The Comforts Of Home

I think it’s so important to make sure our guests feel right at home with all the comforts I can possibly add!

Making their stay as enjoyable as possible not only makes me feel good but makes me feel like a wonderful hostess and friend.

When I’m visiting overnight or for a few days just I so appreciate a nice, comfortable room to stay in.

I want my guests to feel that way too!

Here are 12 Ways To Create A Cozy Guest Bedroom Your Company Will Love!

1. A Comfortable Mattress

A new comfortable mattress was the starting point for our bedroom update.

It arrived straight to our front door and was easy to set up!

Shop mattresses:

2. A Cozy Upholstered Bed

A neutral colored upholstered bed creates a beautiful focal point, adds comfort and coziness.

A bed with a soft comfortable headboard is perfect for guests to lean up against to read or check their email on their devices.

3. Soft Bedding and a Cozy Duvet

The essence of a beautiful guest bedroom is the bedding!

I wanted my guests to be wrapped in style and warmth, with bedding layers that can be added for cooler weather and hot weather.

I also highly advise you to add a waterproof mattress protector to your beds!

It’s peace of mind for me to know that I only have to clean a waterproof mattress cover….. not the entire mattress if an accident should ever happen!

Along with the bedding basics every cozy guest bedroom needs:

a chic white quilt
stylish duvet cover and pillow shams
a throw blanket
Euro pillows are optional

Shop this elegant, bestselling duvet cover and sham set, also comes in a comforter option, and chambray blue throw blanket

4. A Cozy Guest Bedroom Rug To Anchor The Room

A beautiful rug will add softness and amp up the wow factor to your cozy guest bedroom!

Low pile rugs are easy to keep clean.

I recommend choosing an are rug that has the same colors as your bedroom wall color and bedding color for a cohesive look.

5. Beautiful Nightstands

It’s super important to add a couple of stylish nightstands to your guest bedroom.

I added a couple of end tables but you could also add nightstands that have built in device chargers.

So guests can easily charge their devices.

You can also add these cable clips to the nightstands and to keep a phone charger handy.

Check out this gorgeous bestselling nightstand in similar light wood look.

6. Table Lamps For Ample Lighting

Adding a table lamp to both sides of the bed allows your guests ample lighting to read at night.

Don’t forget to add a nightlight to the hallway when guests use the bathroom at night!

I love these chic nightlights that are so stylish!

7. Light Blocking Blinds And Drapes

Add a set of faux wood blinds to the windows to block the light.

These simple white, room darkening, blackout shades will make the room dark at night and can be opened in the daytime to add bright natural light!

A beautiful pair of drapes adds color, texture and pattern to the bedroom.

8. Decorative Pillows For A Cozy Guest Bedroom

Adding a decorative rectangular lumbar pillow to the guest bed is a gorgeous decorative touch and is perfect to prop up on when reading a book!

Make sure the colors of the accent pillows repeat the colors in the bedroom color scheme for a pulled together, cohesive look!

Neutral colored pillows in solids, simple stripes and chic geometric patterns are always timeless and stylish.

9. Wall Art

Don’t forget to add wall art!

It will add ambiance, style color and pattern to the room!

This is a great place to repeat the room’s accent color for a cohesive look.

10. A Beautiful Vase Filled With Blooms or Greenery

A vase of beautiful flowers on the night table is a welcoming touch and will really make your guests feel spoiled!

You can use simple white blooms from the grocery store or from your flower garden….or faux white flowers.

Greenery, such as a few olive branch stems, is a beautiful choice too!

Shop vases:

11. Cozy Guest Room Hospitality Tray

Be a fabulous hostess and set up a hospitality tray with with a beautiful candle, some bottles of water, a jewelry dish and a welcoming vase of flowers!

Add a couple of magazines or coffee table book (travel books and design books are great topics that your guests will love!)

12. Bath and Shower Toiletry Essentials

Adding a toiletry tray to the guest bedroom is a thoughtful idea.

I’m always forgetting something when I travel and I bet your guests do too!

Make life easy for them and keep these bedroom essentials in a tray that they can carry to the bathroom if needed.

And add a couple of bath towels to the dresser so your guests won’t have to guess where they are.

Also add a couple of hooks on the back of the guest bedroom door so guests can hang them to dry.

Also I recommend adding a hair dryer to your guest bedroom too – in case they forget!

Bath and shower toiletry essentials:

extra toothbrushes & dental floss
toothpaste
shampoo
conditioner
body lotion
shower gel
disposable razors
bath towels
hair dryer
hair ties
face cleanser
body scrub – this DIY Coconut Lime Sugar Scrub is so fabulous!
pain reliever, tums antacid

Magazines And Reading Material For A Cozy Guest Bedroom

I love to make sure my guests a few magazines to read in the guest room.

In case they want to just relax in bed before going to sleep.

Or if they want some private time to lounge.

I add a couple of travel books as well as home decor magazines to the hospitality tray and dresser.
