How to Create a Cozy Guest Room for Holiday Guests

If you’re hosting holiday house guests this year, our mattress experts have great tips and tricks for creating a cozy guest room that your visitors will adore. Welcoming holiday travelers into your home is a kind gesture, but it can be a tremendous amount of work, even for the most seasoned of hosts. With cleaning, decorating, stocking, and organizing, creating a cozy guest room takes a lot of time and effort that you feel you may not have around this time of year! 

So, how do I make my guest room cozy? Aside from incorporating some festive decor and stocking the guest bathroom with seasonal scents, the best way to make a difference for your guests is to prioritize their comfort, starting with your guest room mattress.

Have no fear — the mattress experts from Texas Mattress Makers are here to help you create a comfortable, inviting, and welcoming guest room for your holiday company. 

Tip #1: Upgrade your guest room mattress 

Whether you’re on vacation or a business trip, your comfort is a top priority for you when you’re away from your own bed. If you are welcoming overnight guests into your home for the holidays, their comfort should be your top priority — and that cheap guest room mattress you bought five years ago isn’t going to cut it. 

One of the best ways to create a cozy guest room is to provide the best mattress for your guests to sleep on. A comfortable and supportive mattress is just the thing weary travelers need to get the restorative rest they deserve to actually enjoy their holiday! 

Should I invest in a guest room mattress?

We know what you’re thinking: why would I spend money on a bed that won’t be slept in often? If your guest room mattress is a cheap bed-in-a-box or an old mattress, your guests will sleep poorly, and poor sleep around this time of year is an invitation for cranky company. Investing in a mattress for your guest room is crucial if you want your visitors to really enjoy their stay in your home. At Texas Mattress Makers, you don’t have to break the bank to find a quality guest room mattress. Our experts can guide you to the right pick for you and your guests at the right price. Because we’re the manufacturer, our team knows exactly what you need for the coziest sleep.

When it comes to finding the perfect guest room mattress, you want to purchase one that can provide universal comfort to a wide variety of sleepers. Texas Mattress Makers has an entire line of mattresses that are great for guest rooms because the components can accommodate different body types and sleeping styles. This will guarantee that your visitors will get a good night’s rest each time they stay the night, making your home the coziest!

Tip #2: Purchase a mattress protector

One of the most important elements of guest room prep is ensuring that your space is clean; however, many people overlook the cleanliness of their guest room mattress. Similar to how some people are hesitant to sleep in hotel beds out of fear of dirt, your guests will expect your guest bed to be pristine. Purchasing a mattress protector is a great way to put your guests at ease and reassure them that the mattress is guest-ready! 

Mattress protectors keep dirt and allergens out of the mattress so your guests will be more comfortable. Protectors also extend the lifespan of your mattress by shielding it from any liquids, body fluids, or other hazards that can cause wear in a mattress. If you are choosing to invest in a guest room mattress from Texas Mattress Makers — which you should — this will ensure that you can keep your quality mattress for years to come and save more money in the long run. 

Tip #3: Upgrade your pillow game 

There’s nothing worse than having to rest your head on a deflated and dusty pillow after a long period of traveling. If your guest room’s pillows share any of these bad pillow symptoms, it’s time for an upgrade. Contrary to popular belief, pillow quality matters! Bad pillows can cause neck and shoulder pain which can lead to stiffness throughout the day. Ouch.

Just as your guests deserve to sleep on a quality mattress, they deserve quality pillows as well. You want to find pillows that will support the head comfortably while providing the right amount of cushion to keep your guests cozy all throughout the night. 

Want our expert suggestion for the best pillow for guests? Equip your guest room with The Cooling Pillow, a hypoallergenic and adjustable pillow that provides a cooler, breathable surface that will last all night long. If your guests claim to sleep hot, they won’t have to flip this pillow over and over again to get to the “cold” side. This pillow also has a removable two-inch high-density memory foam insert so your guests can customize the pillow’s comfort to their liking!

Tip #4: Add an adjustable base

If you frequently host overnight guests, you want your guest room to be able to accommodate as many different people as possible for a pleasant experience. Now that you have a universally comfortable mattress, why not get an adjustable mattress base to go with it?

Adjustable bases allow the sleeper to customize the positioning of the mattress to perfectly suit their sleeping position and other needs. Because you will have so many different types of guests with different types of needs, an adjustable base can guarantee that each person will sleep comfortably. 

Is an adjustable base worth it? Absolutely! If your guests have medical conditions or simply prefer to lounge in a certain position, they can achieve ultimate relaxation with the ability to adjust how the mattress lays. Having an adjustable base can also make reading, watching TV, or simply relaxing after your holiday festivities all the more enjoyable and will elevate your guest room to new heights of luxury!
