Modern Guest Bedroom Ideas for a Beautiful & Welcoming Space

If you’re getting ready to welcome visitors for a weekend stay and are wondering how to put together a beautiful and comfortable guest bedroom, today I’m sharing some guest room decorating ideas to help you create an inviting space your guests will love. Along with easy guest bedroom preparation tips, you’ll find modern bedroom decor ideas, inspiration photos from Pinterest, and a list of essentials and little extras to create a special experience for your guests.

Pure Salt Interiors

As you’ll see in the photos below, I’m drawn to light and airy modern coastal decor.  However, I encourage you to decorate and style your guest room with a color palette and design style that works best for you.

1. Guest Bedroom Essentials

What should you include in a guest bedroom? A few things on my guest room essentials list include fresh bedding, plenty of pillows and blankets, luxe bath linens, a good mattress, storage space for their belongings, a luggage rack or place for their suitcases, adequate lighting, and blinds or curtains (preferably blackout curtains) on the windows.

Having a comfortable space ready and waiting for your guests to settle into when they arrive will show them you’re excited to have them in your home.

Even if your home doesn’t have a lot of extra room, having all the essentials taken care of beforehand helps you relax and enjoy yourself, too.

2. Make Them Comfortable

One of the best ways to make your guests feel comfortable during their time in your home is to check the thermostat and ensure the room they’re staying in is warm (or cool) enough.

Pure Salt Interiors

During the cooler months, placing soft throws and coverlets on the bed, extra blankets in the closet, and a portable space heater in each guest room are ways to create a warm and cozy space for visitors. 

The Heart and Haven – bedding

In the summer, especially if you don’t have air conditioning, you might want to provide a portable fan or ceiling fan.   Don’t forget to adjust the thermostat up or down if your guests are sleeping in a cool basement or hot upstairs space.  Even better, invite them to make the necessary adjustments to the thermostat themselves.

3. Create a Luxury Hotel Experience

If you’d like to make your guest suite feel like a 5-star hotel, pamper your guests with plenty of pillows (both soft and firm), good-quality sheets, a fluffy duvet or comforter, and a comfortable mattress. 

Design Loves Detail

If you have adequate space, adding two beds to your guest bedroom will allow the entire family to stay in one room–just like in a hotel.

Pure Salt Interiors

Creating a plush and cozy bed will help your guests get a good night’s sleep.  And well-rested guests are happy guests–which makes their visit more enjoyable for you, too!

4. Guest Bedroom Decor Ideas

When it comes to decorating a guest bedroom, this is one of those spaces where you can really get creative and experiment with a different decorating style and color scheme. 

Pure Salt Interiors – chandelier

So, if you’ve been wanting to experiment with a new design style–perhaps something more modern than the rest of your home–the guest room is a great place to try it out!

Pure Salt Interiors

To create a beautiful space for your guests to enjoy, add a touch of style via wall art, decorative pillows, plants, pretty bedding, unique lighting, an upholstered headboard, rugs, side tables, and decor.

Flea markets and thrift shops are great sources for interesting nightstands, dressers, mirrors, and wall art for the guest room.

Pure Salt Interiors

Of course, the main goal should be to keep this space as comfortable and restful as possible, so as you decorate your guest room always try to keep clutter to a minimum. 

Pure Salt Interiors

Bring in layers of texture via extra blankets or throws at the end of the bed.  Not only do they add a touch of coziness, they encourage afternoon naps!

Greige Design

If you have enough space, you might also want to add a bench at the end of the bed or set up a little seating area so guests have somewhere to sit other than the bed.

5. Include Plenty of Lighting

Another consideration is to make sure the guest room has adequate lighting, both overhead and at the bedside.

Pure Salt Interiors – chandelier

If your guest bedroom is too small for nightstands, you can always install wall sconces to save space and provide ample lighting.

Before guests arrive, I always try to remember to check the bedside lamps to make sure they’re plugged in and the light bulbs are working. 

Pure Salt Interiors

6. Don’t Forget the Little Extras

When choosing little extras for the guest room, try to think of touches that will make your guests feel at home, like fresh flowers, plants, magazines, books, candles, robes, a box of tissues, and a rug next to the bed so their feet have a soft spot to land in the morning. 

Jenni Kayne

Another great idea is to create a guest room basket filled with things your guests will need while they’re visiting, like plush towels, wash cloths, tissues, an extra toothbrush, and small toiletries.

Not only will a guest bedroom basket make your guests feel pampered, it’s a great way to use all those little unopened bottles of face wash, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, and body wash from your travels!

Pure Salt Interiors

If you have the space, providing a full-length mirror is always appreciated!  You can even hang one on the back of the door if you don’t have enough space to prop one against the wall.

Pure Salt Interiors

I also like to leave a bottle or two of water or a carafe set on the nightstand. 

One of my favorite guest bedroom ideas is to add a little snack like trail mix, nuts, m&ms, granola bars, cookies, or chocolates, to make our visitors feel special.  It’s such a simple thing to do, but it’s always a big hit with our guests!

7. Provide a Spot to Stash Their Things

Before your guests arrive, make some extra space in the guest room closet and add plenty of hangers so they can unpack and hang their clothes. 

Design Loves Detail

It’s also nice if you can provide a spot for them to keep their suitcases.   A folding suitcase rack, like they have in hotels, is a wonderful guest bedroom addition.

Studio McGee

Providing a large nightstand or dresser in your spare bedroom is also a great idea.  Not only does it provide surface space for their essentials, it provides additional storage in case your guests would like to unpack all their belongings.

Pure Salt Interiors

8. Share Your Wifi Info

Another great way to make your guests feel welcome is to jot down your wi-fi network and password on a little card and leave it on the bedside table. 

It’s such an easy thing to do, but it goes a long way towards making your guests feel at home.  And, if you want to do something really special, you can download a guest room wifi sign and pop it in one of these stand frames!

Amber Interiors

9. Provide a Spot to Work

Since so many people work from home these days, one of my favorite guest bedroom ideas is setting up your space with a desk and chair (as well as the wifi password mentioned above) as a workspace.  

Not only does it give your guests a place to work or check their email, it gives you a little break from entertaining!

Marie Flanigan Interiors

I hope this post gave you lots of ideas for creating a beautiful, comfortable room for guests. With a little preparation and a relaxed frame of mind, hosting overnight visitors can be a wonderful experience for everyone–including you! 

Remember, you don’t have to spend a lot of money to create a comfortable space that will make your guests feel at home.

Most of the furniture and decor in our guest bedrooms was sourced from affordable places like TJ Maxx, H & M, Wayfair, Target, or Amazon, which shows you can easily furnish and decorate a spare bedroom on a budget.  Here’s to a wonderful hosting experience!  xo Jane

Whether you agree with Benjamin Franklin that houseguests are like fish in that they start to stink after three days or you wish you could operate a bed and breakfast out of your home, having a proper guest room is always a good idea. To make sure everyone is comfortable during their stay—guests and hosts—give visitors the very best and make sure their quarters are all set up! Things like fresh flowers, blackout curtains, fluffed pillows, and a few more will elevate the guest experience, and leave a good impression on the loved ones who come to visit. Read on for designer=approved guest bedroom ideas, essentials, and style inspirations to curate a space that'll look beautiful and feel great.

Arrange Near a Bathroom

Setting up a guest bedroom with easy access to a bathroom is always a good idea, even if it isn't a private en-suite restroom. In this warm yet polished bedroom designed by Heidi Caillier, a pocket door (which is a major space-saver!) leads right to a small bathroom.

Don't Forget a Mirror

Hang a full length mirror so your guests have somewhere to evaluate their outfits before you to introduce them to everyone (just kidding). But really, houseguests will definitely appreciate having easy access to a full-length mirror since when living out of a suitcase. A mirror will also make a small guest bedroom feel larger. In this room at the Kinsley Hotel designed by Robert McKinley Studio, the extra hooks are also great for coats, robes, and towels.

Bring Them Breakfast (on a Bench)

Place a bench at the end of the bed to give the room a refined feel. And if you bring your guests breakfast in bed, you automatically earn a reputation as the best host ever. Giving them somewhere to sit other than the bed also diminishes the likelihood of spillage on the bedding.

William Abranowicz

Provide the Basics

Be sure to leave them water on their bedside table so they don't feel like they need to get up in the middle of the night in search of a tap. In this bedroom designed by Analisse Taft, a simple glass carafe complements the classic-meets-contemporary design.

Laure Joliet

Provide Reading Material

Provide your guests with some reading material in case they forgot to pack their own. Stacking floating shelves or a credenza like this one with books will also make a guest room feel homier and more personal. Sheer blinds in a recessed track filter the light in this bedroom designed by Regan Baker.

Consider a Climate Control System

Whether you're providing them with extra blankets or installing a ceiling fan, make sure you set your guests up for comfort with some sort of climate regulation tools. In this vacation home in Maui, Hawaii designed by Breeze Giannasio, the ceiling fan complements the tropical wood vaulted ceiling.

Convert a Nook

When you don't have an actual guest bedroom, maximize another room in the house by building out a nook. Deep enough to moonlight as a guest bunk, this alcove by Rita Koenig and architect Gil Schafer has drawers under the cushion. “It’s more than a reading nook or another piece of furniture,” says Schafer.

Seth Smoot

Liven it Up With Greenery

It's always a good idea to bring in plenty of greenery for a balanced, lively environment. In this bedroom designed by Lauren Nelson, she opted for a peaceful look with tall branches bunched together in an understated vase to match the cool California minimalism of the rest of the home.

Double the Fun With Twin Beds

You can't go wrong with twin beds featuring classic white bedding and headboards that match the wallpaper. Embroidered coverlets give them a formal, traditional look, while gingham skirts are a delightfully playful finish.

Transform the Attic

If all the rooms in your home are occupied or you just need to set up an extra guest bedroom, use your attic space. If the ceilings are low or sloped, keep everything low to the ground light to polish things off. This bedroom designed by McLaren.Excell is a lesson in restraint.

Leanne Ford Interiors

Hang a Diving Curtain

Not all room dividers are folding screens. You can get crafty! Interior designer Leanne Ford hung a curtain in this attic office nook to make it serve double duty as a guest room.

Give It a Reading Nook

A window seat is a great addition to a guest bedroom. It'll give them somewhere to cozy up in that isn't the communal living room. A dresser is also a nice touch, in case they'd like to unpack any of their belongings.

Kylee Shintaffer

Introduce a Sitting Area

Give guests a little seating area so they have somewhere private to unwind that isn't just the bed. A simple reading nook will do, but if there's enough room, add a loveseat and a small coffee table. This mini living room in a gorgeous chalet bedroom designed by Kylee Shintaffer is truly aspirational.

Nicole Franzen

Place a Phone on the Bedside Table

If you're a household that still has landlines installed, make sure there's one in the guest bedroom, too. It could come in handy if your guest's cell phone needs recharging, and if you don't get good cell service, this is even more essential.

Trevor Tondro

Get Scrappy With Furniture

When space is limited and you don't want to shop for new, bulky furniture, use a chair as a side table and install wall sconces to save surface space. A cheerful color, like this pale turquoise hue, is also a good idea to set a happy mood.

Robert McKinley Studio

Add a Mini Bar

Add a mini bar to give your guests extra privacy and a hotel vibe, especially if your guest bedroom is actually inn it's own private structure away from the main house. Just don't forget to keep it empty once they depart. For style inspiration, it doesn't get better than this summery set up by Robert McKinley Studio.

Leave Fresh Towels on Their Bed

Placings towels on the bed before your guests arrive leaves out the guesswork and shows them they're welcome. This bedroom designed by Shari Francis has bonus storage space above the closet, which may not be convenient for everyday items but is perfect for extra suitcases or outerwear—but make sure you clear out enough space for guests when they visit!

Provide a Robe and Towels

Want to take things to the next level? Make your guest room feel like a hotel by putting the things they'll need throughout their stay right there in the room, like a robe, slippers, and makeup remover.

Make It Do Double Duty

If your home doesn't have enough space for a guest room but you host a lot, make one of the other rooms in the house (like the family room or home office) serve double duty. Just put a daybed in a corner—make it super cozy and comfortable with tons of pillows and throws.

Catherine Kwong Design

Use Darker Tones

Keep things streamlined, with clutter at a minimum, and bring in darker colors for a sense of intimacy and coziness. Bedside sconces are a guaranteed way to make your bedroom look and feel as fresh as a five-star hotel room.

Nicole Franzen

Dial Up the Art

A gallery wall will give the space character and make it feel more like a home without taking up valuable surface space. An alarm clock and radio are also nice touches.

Don't Forget Fresh Flowers

Fresh flowers in the guest bedroom are a small but mighty detail. They communicate that you're so excited to have them there!

Miguel Flores-Vianna

Bring in a TV

Deck the guest bedroom out with all the classic pieces, like high-end, traditional monogramed bedding, an orate mirror, full drapes, and a canopy bed. Then add an unexpected, fun throw pillow like this one, which says besos. And a television will be appreciated when guests want to unwind alone, or if they can't fall asleep.

Fantastic Frank

Let the Light in (but Provide an Eye Mask)

If possible, put the guest bedroom in a space where lots of natural light floods in. Just be sure you leave a sleep mask on the bedside table, especially if you didn't install blackout shades.

Eric Piasecki

Set Up a Work Space

If space allows, model a hotel room by giving your guests a little en suite work space. A side chair, desk or console, and table lamp are all it takes.

Pick a Theme

Go with a theme that speaks to your home's location. This one is super fun for a children's guest bedroom somewhere coastal: These bunk beds save space while also reflecting the nautical ship theme.

Uday Villa

Rohit Bhoite House of Design

A house is one’s sanctuary of dreams, emotions & hope. And what better way to bring this etymology to life than a home that expresses just this. Drive down about hundred kilometers off the coast of the bustling city of Mumbai and nestled amidst the Sahyadris Mountains, is interior designer Rohit Bhoite’s recent heartfelt project. When he was approached for the Linear House Project, it was simply barren land and the creative brief was to design a space that reflected the diverse yet cognitive personalities of the home owners keeping in mind that it had to be kid friendly too. From the day Rohit’s team started ideating and drafting their initial thoughts to where the complete home stands today, its been an overwhelming and fulfilling journey of over two years. Layout orientation diagrams and computer simulations where discussed with the homeowners, iterated and concluded with great detailing, keeping in mind the philosophy and personas of all. The pristine architectural structure, pool deck, landscaping, interior design and execution, each aspect of the project had been well planned and executed with timelines. Nature and urban contemporary visuals had to blend extremely well into each other. It was the perfect opportunity to create an abode of tranquility with a color palette of industrial shades with earthy hues and tones that evoke a sense of clam. Overlooking the expansive mountain range the house was designed in a horizontally stretch with the living room & dining being placed right in the center as the focal point where family and friends would love to spend time together. The two master bedrooms fondly knows as the Black and White rooms put at extreme ends. There is also a kids room and a guest bedroom apart from the comprehensive kitchen. The living space practically has no walls but folding shuttered glass paned French windows on custom designed track channels that allow them to fully open up on both sides. One side being the landscaped lawns and the other being the pool and the barbeque gazebo. The idea was that one can embrace the feeling of sitting outdoors even while inside the leisure of the living room… literally re-creating an inside out look. The flooring selected was a blended ash gray shade with Diesel tiles to offset with the industrial feel. The chalet style sloping pitched roof is as capacious with an 18 feet height at its highest point in the center running through the entire living and dining area. Walls were hand crafted in textured gray and subway tiles as one of the highlighters, with the couch in pure linen fabric and relaxed rattan wicker chairs to offset the colors of the walls. Planters that are about nine feet in height were placed strategically. The icing on the cake was the handmade glass mesh chandelier discovered by Rohit on one of his travels and literally an instant hit with the home owners too. Apart from this, canescent lighting has always been a must have on his projects. He strongly recommends this offering to his clients at most times. The dining table is a solid wood plank and polished off in a complimenting natural wood tinge with a clear glass bottom to ensure that the dimensional view of the house does not get blocked. It is fondly known as the floating table in the family! Geometry with tiles and forms has been a focal point in Rohit's structural designs, especially when it comes to bathrooms. The powder bathroom is a classic example of just that with extensive use of hexagonal tiling. A custom granite sink with brass details around the periphery and edges of the mirror is the focal point and forms the visual balance of the small yet utilitarian space. There are 4 bedrooms to the Uday Villa. Two Master bedrooms, one kids room and a guest room. One bedroom which the team terms as ‘His Black Room’ was designed simply to the preference of the gentleman and ‘Her White Room’ designed to the choice of the lady of the house. The black and white room have the same layout but are situated at both the extreme ends of the house, each overlooking the greens and the azure pool with tall glass retractable French top to bottom windows. The black room has a beautiful choice of natural hues of deep and tan browns, greens and a gray concrete wall giving the room an industrial look. The opposite wall holds the much loved yet tricky to use aluminum checked Tiles. Polished kadappa (slate) flooring holds the visual identity together and almost completes the look of the black shera(cement) board panel with a deep wooden texture. A tan cozy corner chair, which happens to be one of Rohit's steals while scouting for local designer portfolios, at the rear end; Adds to the eccentric highlight that you see in the other details as well, such as the bed frame and the word work around the room. A metal mesh light weight glass tube adds a fantastic delicate highlight almost completing the room to perfection. Apart from keeping the bathroom clutter free, practical and trendy, it incorporates the palette of the room, here as well with brass detailing, Diesel tiles and fittings in a clean and trend setting chrome finish. The white room made to the choice of the lady of the family, has a strong feminine voice yet keeps to the integrity of Rohit’s design style. The walls are textured with concrete finish light gray color with Diesel tiles and the ceiling is masked with shera board in an ash wood shade. The industrial looks is softened with a smart chic choice in upholstery to add warmth. A signature Rohit Bhoite custom designed four poster urban bed with light sheers was a mush have for the lady in the house and it was honored. It was created in house from scratch and holds a natural veneer polish. To offset the industrial grey, earthy tones of greens were used by way of planters and browns in the carpet. The bathroom door adds a touch of nature to the entire space. The pendant & ceiling light fittings have a touch of brass to compliment the room and add finesse. The bathroom was designed with granite and hued concrete that supports the industrial tone of design language that Rohit is trying to bring about to the project. The kids room is a eclectic blend of yellow, gray and tan brown. The little home owners insisted on slumber party bunk beds and given this fun brief, custom made beds were designed with a height of 15 feet so they do not need to bend over or have heads hitting the roofs when at play. The lights form yet another highlight of this room, that juxtapose floating cloud formations, symbolizing ideas that can creatively flow in thin air. Cement tiles in the flooring, textured walls and fabrics in earthy tones truly complete this room. Shades of blue are the highlight of the guest room. The angular yet non symmetrical geometric patterned flooring offsets the color tones of the custom-made bed, the head board and the roof. Concrete tiles form the base and the half and half wall , cuts the monotony of a plain white wall that runs across the length and height of the room. The colors of the room spill over the bathroom with the colored concrete walls and flooring. The raw look with refined designer fittings was Rohit’s way of incorporating technique into his art form. The pool being a highlight for the kids in the family, was designed in the length of 15 mts. x 5 meters to cover the exact expansion of the house, so it is visible not only from the living and dining areas, but also both the black and white rooms at both ends of the constructed structure. There is a practical and aesthetically clear glass porch with matt black gazebo work where the open to air bar, BBQ grill and open to air outdoor furniture has been placed for outdoor dining on a beautiful winter day or a hot summer evening. The family hopes to spend much of their time here as the kids love to make a splash on most days. The landscape design holds a special place for Rohit. This was a design avenue he had been assigned for the very first time. With a lot of in-depth research about flora and fauna with climate durability in mind, the plan was all about juxtaposing natural elements with the existing rock formations originally found in the same space as discovered. Everything was designed around the original being of these mini boulders to represent his ideology of aligning it all into a beautifully orchestrated form without having to compromise on the integrity of the design planned. To finish off the project Rohit and the home owners added the final touches to the bold hues with customized furniture elements, paintings and eye-catching curios from all across the world. A dream realized… an idea fulfilled… a happy family.

20 stylish guest room interiors - photo

When you think of a guest room, what do you imagine? Soft lighting, luxurious linens, fresh flowers in vases, books and interesting magazines on the shelves?

You might want to repeat something you saw in one of the hotels you visited. This will only be a plus. After all, you can take advantage of the experience of professional designers who have been engaged in accommodating guests for more than one year. To create the most comfortable guest room, you need to consider the basic needs of a person.

This is a place to sleep, ie a bed or a pull-out couch if the room is small. The main light, a night light to read before bed, a work desk, a couple of chairs and a few shelves in a closet or chest of drawers.

Even if you don't have a separate guest room, don't worry! You are not alone! Millions of people around the world host friends for the night using an air mattress or surfboard. The main thing is to focus on small details. But if you already have the opportunity to give guests a separate room, then it is in your power to make it so comfortable that your guests probably won’t want to leave for a very long time.

Guest room with one bed

Have you already set up the bed and nightstand? Great start! If the room is small, this is quite enough to provide quite comfortable accommodation for long-awaited guests.

And if space permits, then a chest of drawers, chairs and easy chairs will be a great addition. You should also pay attention to bed linen. Even if there is not so much furniture, it sets the tone, gives a good mood and healthy sleep.

In the next photo, the room has a beautiful view from the window, but the owners did not stop there. Soft lighting and elegant details create a truly heavenly atmosphere.

A bit of decadence. Elegant classic chandelier. Dark tones. Floral patterns.

Don't forget the power of color. Bright details in a white room are a lot of fun. It is worth noting that it is the little things that will make your guests feel truly desired. For example, an original alarm clock or fresh flowers.

Attic rooms are not only practical, but also interesting. Children's games in the attic and old films immediately come to mind.

Modern style emphasizes the main detail. Try pasting the wall behind the bed with original wallpaper - and you will be pleasantly surprised by the result.

Don't know how to decorate a room? Refer to the strict classics. An absolutely white room will be beautifully decorated with a vase of flowers of your choice.

Is the room you want to send guests to today really your office? Don't worry, guests will love the opportunity to check their email or read your books. Beds can be mega-simple and compact, put original multi-colored pillows on them - and you're done!

Twin bed

If you do not have many rooms to accommodate all guests separately, we suggest considering the option of double rooms. Do you think that this is not very convenient? Do not be shy. Guests will appreciate the tastefully furnished room and will only be happy to chat before going to bed.

Of course, if you are not going to settle there blood enemies. For starters, you should think about the standard hotel option - two beds standing side by side. An example is in the photo below.

Another option is to place the beds perpendicular. If you mount a dividing wall between them, you will provide your guests with privacy and a sense of separation of personal space. A bookcase can be used as a wall.

Don't forget that you can add variety and playfulness to the space. In the photo below, you can see individual curtain walls, a geometric pattern, and plush benches by the bed. The feeling that you are relaxing in a five-star hotel somewhere in the East. Is there a better option?

Play with the theme. We present to your attention a room in a marine style. When you walk in here, you immediately feel that you have come to relax. Nautical print on bed linen, nautical chart and sailboat figurine in the window. It would seem that just a few touches, and already a complete immersion in the topic.

Here is another version of the marine theme. Striped and printed pillows on a white background. Anchor and starfish. Forward to adventure, dear friends!

If people with children come to visit you from time to time, you can add a few bright details, soft toys or a small drawing table to the guest room. If you don’t get carried away too much, the room will be universal - for both children and adults.

With multiple beds

Planning to host a company of soldiers? Or a small circus troupe? Or maybe your precious aunt from Odessa came to visit you with a whole bunch of relatives? What to do? Run? To say that you got sick, moved a long time ago, or even died and sent her an invitation to your funeral?

Don't worry, you can put multiple beds in one room. With proper execution - for example, in the form of a tropical resort - guests will not be upset at all. Maybe even the other way around, the lonely cousin will finally find her destiny...

Need to accommodate three? To do this, you can use a folding daybed that folds up during the day. It will also come in handy if you and your guests want to watch a movie or play something together.

And this option is more like a pioneer camp or a cabin for young sailors. If you choose this option, then you should seek the help of professionals who will competently fix hanging beds.
