22 Guest Bedrooms with Captivating Twin Bed Designs
Thinking about redecorating your guest bedroom? If you’re looking to replace the bed, you might want to consider going for two twin beds as opposed to the typical double or queen-sized bed — especially if you have the room for it! Think about it. A pair of twin beds is more convenient for guests who aren’t couples, and the symmetry you can create will give your guests double the design envy! Check out these 22 beautiful guest bedrooms that will make your guests feel right at home.

Two twin beds placed up against a wall can serve as an inspirational canvas for hanging wall art. This room featured on Sabbe Spot shows you don’t have to keep it symmetrical when it comes to hanging lots of different pieces!
Twin beds with a trunk between them and gorgeous wall artHere’s a different example from Cote De Texas, which places a mirror above a rustic dresser in between the two beds, with a pyramid-like shape of wall art hung above each.
Of course, mirrors can sometimes be better used than framed pieces of artwork. Check out these small but elegant round mirrors hung above each bed from Zsa Zsa Bellagio. And that chandelier really is a beauty too!

5 Ways A Twin Bed In A Guest Room Works
Can a twin bed in a guest room work? Yes, aboslutely, and I am going to show you how it can!
With all our bedrooms filled, and our guests sleeping on a sofa, every holiday season we wish we could figure out a better guest sleeping situation! With Christmas around the corner, I had to start thinking outside the box. When Serena & Lily reached out to see if I wanted to partner again I knew I wanted to create that guest bed I’ve been dreaming about, and feature their best in class bedding!
5 Ways To Make A Twin Bed In A Guest Room Work
We now have a combo playroom / guest room that will serve us beautifully over the holidays when we are hosting! We did this by clearing out a nook that used to hold toys in our playroom.
This nook was the perfect size for our twin bed guest room idea! Obviously I would have preferred a bigger bed, but other than buying a sleep sofa (noooo!), this was our only option. Which brings me to my next question…
But is a twin bed in a guest room okay?
I would say that depends on who your guests are.
- Are your guests single people?
- Couples who will feel comfortable on a twin?
- Kids?
- Are they much older and comfortable to sleep apart?
- Can you use two twin XL beds, keep them apart but push them together when needed?
We normally host my brothers who are bachelors, and Jose’s family members. His cute parents are smaller people who like to cuddle up together. (I know, adorable).
Besides the fact that this space is indeed a playroom and we can’t escape that fact, our playroom does have some perks! It is 500 square feet and spacious, private and on the third level of our home, with a door that closes it off and its own full bath.
The catch is the room is well loved by our 4 children 90% of the year:
(See Our Playroom Tour!)
The challenge came down to carving out enough space for the twin bed so it didn’t look out of place, and felt welcoming and luxurious to host guests in during the few weeks of the year we need it to.
1. Twin Bedroom Ideas: Twin + Twin = King!
I wanted to start with this twin bedroom idea, because although we didn’t go this route, I think its a great tip if you are considering twin beds in a guest room. If you have two XL (extra long) twins, they are the size of a king bed when next to each other.
There is nothing wrong with keeping two twins apart, and pushing them together when needed! Just add a high quality king size sheet to the mattresses when they are together, (like these linen sheets I used on our guest bed). When your college girl friend is visiting alone, she can stay in the twin by itself. But when your parents visit, push the 2 twins together and use the king sized sheets over both.
This is a fairly common solution and also practical!
Are you squeezing an office guest room together, or a playroom guest room combo like we did? Then a daybed might be your ideal choice.
2. Give The Twin Bed A Mature Color Palette To Avoid Visions of College
Unfortunately, a twin bed can bring up visions of your dorm room or a kid’s bed. Using a refined color palette brings a level of maturity to a twin bed!
Serena and Lily is known for their coastal, refreshing feel and I wanted this space to embody that vibe! Using their high end bedding in a neutral color pallet of tans, grays and whites, our day bed feels finished and high end. No one would take this for a child’s bed.
The textured sheets and quilt are crisp clean white, and our duvet pattern is a muted “sand” color. The lumbar brings in a pretty muted shade of gray, and the blue stripes on the stool is just the right pop of color.
3. Twin Guest Bed Texture
No blah bedding here! Try using linen sheets to add texture – they have a woven, heathered look.
Using upscale bedding might help our guests forget they are in our playroom on a twin sized bed, and at best they might even feel like they are sleeping in a high end hotel! The Cavallo sheets we used are made of lux linen. I like white for a hotel clean feel, and by using linen the sheets don’t look “flat”- they pop! These sheets have a luxurious texture, and will feel cool to the touch when our guests are climbing into bed on warm nights. Linen feels crisp and cool because it is more breathable than even cotton.
4. Use Layers For a Fluffy Big Bed
Doesn’t everyone want their bed to look fluffy? The trick to getting a bed to look like a cloud is to make it up with multiple layers. For a truly inviting bed you want as many layers as possible.
- Use a duvet like my Palm duvet– in the winter months I use a thicker insert which adds inches to the bed.
- You will want a quilt or coverlet to lay over the bottom of the bed to make it extra “full”.
I have loved the Sutter linen quilt for years, and during Serena & Lily’s bedding sale it is the perfect time to snag it. Since it is made of breathable linen, guests could just use this alone during summer time stays. - Pillows. EVERY BED NEEDS A LUMBAR! It will give you that finished look without having to add a zillion pillows. Use Euro pillows behind it.
Twin Bed Pillow Combinations
- If you are not using a day bed, and have a twin bed in a guest room, I recommend one euro in the back, with a sleeping pillow or standard sham in the middle, and a lumbar last. You could use a smaller lumbar like the Del Mar Lumbar (12″ x 21″).
- I love the pretty geometric print of the longer Olympia pillow (14″ x 30″) on my daybed. With three printed Palm pillows behind, this daybed is now fully dressed and layered.
5. Make Sure All Necessities Are In The Room
The finishing touches are making your guest room have every convenience.
They need a little spot for their luggage, so they are not using the bed. I love this Teak Camp stools– a multifunctional stool that can work in multiple rooms!
A full length mirror is something I always appreciate having when I travel, so I brought in this beautiful teak ladder mirror.
Turn their bathroom into a hotel bathroom with fresh greens, towel, and bottles of water!
The Heraldsburg bath sheet is one I set aside for guests only. The bath sheet is something I recently discovered that I love giving guests! They are simply towels that are extra big, like a sheet. I personally wouldn’t want to use them for my every day towels, (that would be a lot of washing), but they are perfect to let guests use for that extra touch of luxury.

Designing a five-star guest room - idea photo
Black and white living room with two separate beds
Dear visitors of the Interiors of the rooms!
Today we will talk about how to transform the interior.
Your guest room is full. Not only does it have to be web-free, it doesn't need to store twenty-six boxes of stuff. Get rid of them.
And when you look at it as a third person, as an absolutely impartial, unprejudiced spectator, you will understand that this is just junk. For those who are interested, we have sale yards.
You can sell good old fashioned wedding gifts that have not been used, clothes that you will never wear. Going through the treasures of your past, find buyers among your neighbors. Absolutely everything that occupied the free space is for sale!
White decorated guest room in modern attic
I suggested to my friend that I book a hotel room during my trip. They are ready to cater to your needs and whims to live in a luxurious environment, which undoubtedly raises the rating, and then the hotel can be compared to a five-star hotel. This is what the guest room in your home needs. If you offer it for recreation, why not use it yourself?
Convenience First: Double Bed
Elegant Guest Bedroom Design Idea
This spacious bed does not overcrowd, but offers comfortable space for two.
Egyptian fabric or high quality natural cotton will allow your loved ones to enjoy velvety bedding.
Some need the absence of noise, especially if they are city dwellers, but you won't suffer from insomnia on this bed.
Convenience number two: bath in room
Modern design guest room with fancy bunk beds
My parents live in an old house with a perfect and stunning bathroom. Sometimes there is some inconvenience due to midnight toilet breaks when you run into other people.
A bathroom with spares for unexpected guests who have not yet unpacked their bags, makes them feel at home. You are eager to open your doors for them, which they have been waiting for. Don't forget to prepare soap and bath towels!
Convenience three: open spaces
Bright and masculine design of the guest bedroom
If the guest room is full of your personal belongings, free it from them. Remove baggy, fur, winter accessories from the closet. Mop the floor under the bed, where there is a lot of dust, and pull out boxes filled with jewelry and old love letters.
The chest of drawers should be refreshed so that the drawers are ready for clean clothes.
Fourth convenience: communication
Guest room with pull-out bed
Provide visitors with accessible outlets and a clearly written password to your network system, trusting them to use electricity and Wi-Fi. And if your generosity and budget allows, then a small flat screen and a media player will be good entertainment.
The little amenities we are accustomed to at home or in a hotel in the guest bedroom will ensure a baby's sleep.
Convenience number five: privacy
Stunning guest room design with twin beds
Ah, private life. Actual will be doors with working locks, beautiful curtains that actually hide the silhouette of who is in the room.
Convenience six: 24-hour concierge service
Yes. How are you going to alert and serve around the clock old college buddies? It doesn't matter if they are men or women. But if you provide your guest with a mini-fridge stocked with drinks and other essentials, they gain the independence of having to turn to you for every whim or need.
Give your visitors a brief overview of the city. Provide a folder with descriptions of local restaurants, museums, malls, and other places to give them more self-sufficiency.
It seems to me that I already hear your doorbell, see the luggage and hope to have fun in your company!
