Make your guests feel at home by decorating their bedroom in beautiful fashionable neutral colours such as duck egg blue or muted silver grey are kind to the eye and provide a cool chic look.

Guest bedrooms are notoriously one of the smallest bedrooms, as such you should make them feel as light and airy as possible as well as maximising the limited space at every opportunity.

Whether you have twin beds or a double is a matter of choice and to some extent the age of the people you have to stay! Many people opt for twin beds as these accommodate most guests sleeping preferences rather than a double! If your guests really oppose to sleeping in different beds you always have the option of pushing twin beds together if necessary although this option will depend wholly on the interior design style of the room.

White bedding is a good choice as this will coordinate well with the décor and offers clean lines. Add personal touches to the room such as pretty canopy drapes over the bed, those who live in the country or warmer climates may prefer to swap these for practical mosquito nets to protect guests from being bitten while they sleep!

Keep the window treatments simple to allow as much natural light as possible to flood into the room. Roman style blinds are a good option and can be made from the same fabric as the canopy to coordinate the room. Guests will also appreciate having a chair to either actually sit on while they dress and undress or simply to lay their clothes on. If you like a totally coordinated room small casual armless chair, often referred to as nursing chairs, can have beautiful covers placed over them in a matching fabric.

Stripped floor boards are also a good option in guest rooms as they are easy to keep clean and your guests won’t be too embarrassed if they spill anything on them! You can always add a rug beside the beds to give them a soft, warm touch when they get out of bed!

Inject subtle colour into the room by adding cushions on the bed with a coordinating coloured cushion on each of the chairs. Don’t forget that guests like to have some draw space and somewhere to hang their clothes, particularly if they are staying for more than one night.

Keep wall decoration simple and non cluttered to give the illusion of more space and include a well placed mirror for their convenience if the room doesn’t have an en suite bathroom and to provide another illusion of more space as well as additional light. Include a small table lamp or matching bedside table lamps if you have a space for two individual bedside tables which have a shade or shades in the same colours you have used for the cushions to provide cohesion to the room.

Don’t forget extra little personal touches such as fresh seasonal flowers to make your guests feel really welcome!
