It’s time to bring that hotel-style 5 star feeling into your home. Now you can relive the most glamorous of getaways in the comfort of your own bedroom.

1. Accessorise with high-end hardware and fancy fringing

When it comes to creating a hotel bedroom look, a good place to start exploring is bedroom accessories.

Selecting just a few statement pieces can really transform your sleeping space from mediocre to magnificent.

Here are a few finishing touches we love:

  • Marble: a classic luxurious material, you could add touches of marble in the form of vases or photo frames.
  • Metallic: materials like pewter, copper and brass – these can be integrated by hanging pendant lights and placing ornaments and trinkets on bedside tables or window ledges. Top tip: choose a matt texture in these materials as it’s great for disguising fingerprints – goodbye, everyday polishing!
  • Smoked glass mirrors: these boast a pretty vintage-looking aesthetic for a touch of Art Deco style to really up the glamour stakes. They’re also another handy polishing hack.
  • Fringing: this feminine embellishment epitomises classic glamour. From lampshades to cushion covers, fringing will add a tactile finish to your bedroom accessories. It’s currently in with the rise of 1970s interiors – but really, it’s never been out.

2. Sleep on sumptuous fabrics

Velvet, satin and silk are top tier in luxurious bedroom fabrics and the interior experts at House Beautiful agree.

We’re proud to have created a range of exclusive bedroom furniture in collaboration with House Beautiful. Each piece in this stunning collection is upholstered in a selection of premium fabric finishes to instantly add that boutique-hotel feeling to your boudoir.

3. Decorate with an elegant colour scheme

If you’re looking to feel regal in your hotel-style bedroom, adding some carefully curated colours can set the scene.

Jewel tones mixed with dusky pink is our palette of choice. Shades like sapphire blue and emerald green add impact, while pops of soft blush lend a calming and romantic contrast.

If you like to keep things simple, dramatic monochrome designs are incredibly impactful. Pairing jet black with soft greys and whites can create a tonal look that’s rich and refined.
