Holidays are coming soon. Guests may be coming to stay – and you can make their stay much more enjoyable with just a few touches. Sometimes a guest room can seem cold and sterile or looks like a space you use to store unwanted items and old furniture.  

An engaging guest room has nothing to do with the size of the room or the cost of the furnishings, but with the details you pay close attention to. Think about the amenities you like when you stay in a nice hotel, and make those available to your guests! 

• Make the room luxurious with a high-quality mattress and good linens. 
• Have several blankets or throws available, so guests can adjust to their own comfort level. 
• Provide pillows in a couple of firmness levels and various stuffing materials. 
• Arrange side tables or nightstands on both sides of the bed, with lamps that have effective lighting for reading. 
• Purchase window treatments that block out the morning light and provide privacy. 

If there’s space, arrange a sitting area with a small table, a comfortable chair or two, and good lighting. Think about where people can put their suitcases – maybe you can add a bench at the foot of the bed or a folding luggage rack.

Clean your junk out the closet too, so there’s at least a small amount of space for people to hang their clothes and store their shoes out of site. Have at least one small bureau with a drawer or two available for guests to put away their t-shirts and socks. If you’re remodeling or adding on a guest room, make sure you include plenty of plugs for recharging portable devices.
