Guests choose hotels for many different reasons, but they are ultimately looking for a great bedroom space -- somewhere they can wind down, sleep, and get a good night’s rest before embarking on the activities for their trip.
Savvy hoteliers and designers know that no matter how many amenities the hotel has or how convenient it is to a popular landmark -- a clean, comfortable, and well-designed bedroom space is what will bring a customer back time and time again.
While there is no official formula to create the perfect bedroom space in a hotel, there are a few hotel design trends and clever design tips to help create the perfect environment everyone is hoping for when they check in.

Multifunctional Furniture
Creating a great bedroom space is easy when you incorporate multifunctional furniture in the hotel room design. Guests love extra seating in the room, such as a sleeper sofa, that can also be used for additional overnight guests. Multifunctional headboards are a great way to improve a guest’s experience in the “bedroom” portion of their room. Headboards that can pull down as desks, have ample charging ports, and even a place to hold their water glass are a surefire way to impress guests.
Get High Tech, But Not Too High Tech
In the high-tech world we live in today, guests want to stay connected. Embracing the digital world by providing ample outlet charging ports next to the bed, built-in stands for cell phones and tablets, and free in-room wi-fi is something the new generation of travelers is looking for in a hotel room.It’s important to be wary of being too tech-y (and it is possible). You want to make sure your spaces still appeal to all generations who will be staying in your hotel.
Focus on tech that will make guests’ life easier, but not tech that will be so complicated to use that it will make guests feel frustrated just trying to plug in their phone before bed.
Large Beds
When it comes to hotel room beds, the bigger, the better! Surveys and studies indicate hotel guests prefer at least a king size bed, and also an attached headboard and white linens, which gives them the feeling of a clean and comfortable bedroom space.Worried that adding a big bed will make the room feel smaller? Again, if you opt for multifunctional furniture, you can win back any space you give to a big, cozy bed.
Make it Neutral
Today’s neutral colors differ from what they used to be, so it’s important to stay on-top of trends (even ones that seem less exciting, like neutral tones).
Neutrals used to be pretty cut and dry: black, white, grey, and beige. But, lately, a winder variety of colors is being considered neutral. Including:
-
Muted blues and greens
-
Blush tones
Don’t be afraid to mix some of these “new neutrals” into your hospitality bedroom spaces.
Mood Lighting
Lighting truly sets the mood and can enhance any space. Designing your hotel bedroom space with custom lighting can create a unique and personal space and make your guests feel more at home.
Some tips to focus on for lighting include:
-
Opt for a gentle glow. Swap out any harsh, fluorescent lights for bulbs that offer a more warm glow.
-
Lighting controls should be in reach from the bed. There’s nothing more annoying than a guest having to get out of bed because the control for the light above their bed is across the room.
-
Offer different levels of brightness. Make sure that your hotel room features multiple lighting options, and not just one giant overhead light. Guests may want a subtle light to read by in bed, or a nightlight on on the other side of the room.
Elements of Comfort New hotel design trends for 2018 and moving into 2019 indicate that guests want the feeling of luxury and comfort. Hotel bedroom space design is becoming more about feeling good in the space and that includes furniture that is designed to not only look luxurious but to also feel luxurious.
Little extras like fluffy throw pillows, premium linens, and high-quality throw blankets that add warmth and coziness to the space are on trend for 2018.
