The festive season always brings with it the merriest of memories, including entertaining and often the occasional overnight guests. With only a few weeks to go, it’s time to start getting your guest room ready for friends and family that will be spending the holidays with you. Not sure where to start? Take a look at these handy tips on how to create a luxurious and indulgent guest room for friends and family, that will make them feel welcome and right at home.
Upgrade the bed linen
There really is no better feeling than getting into a bed with fresh, clean, cotton sheets and linen. If you can afford to splash out on new linen for your guests, think about investing in cotton linen to make their stay all the more comfortable. Cotton is a pure, natural, good-quality material that is breathable and will keep you cool in summer. If you’re really looking to make their trip feel special then consider adding a touch of luxury and opulence with exquisitely smooth, soft-touch 300-thread count Egyptian cotton duvet cover sets as an added spoil for guests.
Similarly, a new duvet inner is another sure-fire way to ensure your guests stay well-rested. Quality duvet inners and pillows keep you warm in winter and cool in summer and the correct inner will ensure a good night’s rest.

Declutter the room
Declutter the tops of chests and tables so guests have a place to put their necessities. Ensure there is adequate storage by adding a few baskets in varying sizes to the room to keep it multi-functional and organised.

Don’t forget the curtains
Remember to consider the curtains in your guest bedroom. “Blockout curtains eliminate most light, help to reduce noise and keep rooms cool in summer, and will let guests enjoy the treat of sleeping in. If you want to add some detail to a room, sheer curtains and voile are the way to go,” says Elbe Truter, buying manager for Volpes and Biggie Best.

Spruce up the bathroom
If your guest bedroom has its own bathroom, then consider dressing up your bathroom for the holidays. Provide plush, clean towels and bath mats and use room fragrances and candles to make the space more inviting.

Add luxury details
Complete your luxury guest room experience by adding finishing touches to the space such as bedside lamps, a textured throw and colourful scatter cushions.
Put some fresh flowers, a plant or a sprig of holiday greenery in the room. A comfortable chair is a must for reading, relaxing or simply retreating. As an added touch, add a stack of your favourite books or recent magazines for guests to enjoy.
