How can I get that luxury hotel bed at home?

          On visiting a luxury hotel, the first few things we usually see are a beautiful room, a scenic view through the window or verandah, and a magnificent sized bed; and all the rest decorations of the room come next. To achieve the luxury of a large and gorgeously designed clean bed at home, we have to make a note of few things:-

First, a large and spacious bed, followed by a soft and comfy mattress. On top of these, the proper arrangement of the bed and maybe some additional decorative pillows can add a taste of refinement to your majestic bed.

So first, let’s look into what we can do to achieve such luxury at the comfort of our home-

1) Choosing the Appropriate Size of Mattress:

First, you need to look into the difference. That is – the main differences between a California King and a King-sized mattress?

There are several sizes of mattresses and the California king-sized mattress is the largest of the lot. Though it is only a matter of 4 inches, it makes the shape of the California king-sized mattress a lot different from the King-sized ones,i.e., it is much more of a rectangular shape than the other, which is a square. The California King-size mattress fits two people of about 6feet perfectly. And a space of about 4inch is left out for movement. For a 10 by 12 feet room, the California King-sized bed is well enough to fit and give that height of the bed required for a majestic look. But we can’t overlook the consequences of this mattress. That includes- excessive weight; lack of accessories for it and difficulty to fit in small or average-sized rooms.

Comfortable, good length, and spacious – the King-sized bed fills all these checkboxes. But it is much more expensive according to its size. It requires a 13 by 13 room to fit and is heavyweight. So it is not profitable to buy.

So by this comparison, you can identify- which one to choose for your room and which one can fit your need of a luxury bed but at home. But you have to look out for your room size, the affordable price, the comfort of the bed required ( some may like too soft beds while others a bit hard ones), leg length, accessories availability beforehand, so that you don’t mess up in buying a wrong one for your house.

2) Change the Quality of the Mattress:

To get the feeling of a luxurious hotel bed at home, the up-gradation should begin from your mattress. The mattress is fundamental to get that luxurious experience. That’s why hotels never compromise on the quality of the mattresses. Most of the hotels provide a thick and innerspring mattress to sense the feeling of extravagance.

Innerspring Mattress:-The high-quality innerspring mattresses that you want are those that have high-quality coils, high-density foam, or memory foam as well as thick steel wires that prevent the coils from getting twisted or compressed. You can find high-quality innerspring beds that come with removable and washable liners that protect your bed well from everyday dirt. In addition, many high-quality beds today also come with detachable mattress pillows. With these features, you can be sure that you get a good night’s rest.

If your mattress is older than 5-6 years, then it is time to go for a new one.

Waterbeds:-You can also choose waterbeds, which are made of vinyl and filled with water. Waterbeds are very easy to clean as it comes with a self-contained case. You have to clean the case with a vinyl cleaner. It is much more beneficial for those who have spinal and back pain. As these beds don’t create bedsore, it is recommended for a paralyzed person. It can serve you for a long time (10 – 15 years ).

3) Arrangement of Pillows:

As in the interior designing magazines, decorations of rooms with a large and elegant bed, mesmerizing lights, furniture and more, often fascinates us in living such a luxurious life. Even though we can’t hire an interior designer, sometimes making a few changes ourselves can elevate our living.  Arranging pillows as a pile but in a sophisticated manner can give a gorgeous look. Some additional decorated or colored pillows or pillows of different textures can add the beauty you were missing out on. The arrangement can be like – large pillows at the very back with smaller pillows at the front and the very front pillows to be either decorated with patterns or of different color or texture. Feathery pillows or those which look like rabbit fur can also be used. If your bed is attached to the wall, then you may arrange the pillows at the corner.

4) Accessories:

Adding beautiful bedsheets with floral or geometric designs with sober colors or other decorations. Use white as a theme for decorating your bed as it adds the feel of the beds at a luxury hotel. Make sure that the surrounding is warm and cozy. Additional comfort and coziness are given by featherbeds, as they are soft and plush. Attaching two lamps on either side of the bed on the wall behind the head of the bed can provide an elegant look to your bed. Using mattress covers can keep the mattress clean and can help you to wash them out easily. Using silk covers can even help to maintain the wrinkle-free look of your bedsheets.

5) Learning how to tuck in the bedsheets like a pro:

To make your bed look like a luxury hotel bed, it is important to have a clean bed sheet and tuck in all four sides and make a 45 degree with the part left out and tuck them in. The comforter or duvet has to be folded with the pillows peeping out through them. The bedsheet should be spread neatly, with no wrinkles. Also, a water spray may be used to press down your sheet.

Conclusion:

The above points justify that, to achieve the need for a luxury bed as in the top-rated hotel, we not only need to replace the mattresses but also look into some fine details. The fine details include the type of bed sheets that we are using, the accessories that we are using to decorate our bed.

Decorations and techniques sum up the beauty of our bed and make it luxurious.
