The Ideal Bed Types for Boutique Hotels

The furniture you choose for your boutique hotel will speak volumes about the style and experience you’re trying to achieve. The focal point of any hotel room is undoubtedly the bed. On the face of it, it may seem like a relatively simple decision, right? However, choosing the right type of bed for your boutique hotel can be a minefield of choices in itself. 

In this post, we explore some of our favourite types of beds and explain why they’re well suited to life in a boutique hotel for delighting your guests and, of course, ensuring a good night's sleep. 

Four Poster Beds

Nothing oozes style and sophistication like a four poster bed. A four poster bed dominates a room for all of the right reasons and instantly draws the eye of anyone who enters it. There’s just something about their grandiose nature that makes them memorable for guests. After all, for the vast majority of people, it could be the first time they’ve had the pleasure of sleeping in one, making them a novelty that’s sure to draw positive reviews (and an untold number of Instagram stories) from guests. 

Ideal for: Boutique hotels looking for a touch of glamour that airs on the side of tradition and class. 

Suited to: Country Style, Georgian Style, Royal Style

Sleigh Beds

Sleigh beds are among the most versatile there is. An effortless, understated style that offers equal measures of opulence and simplicity. Much like a four poster bed, a sleigh bed still makes that all-important statement but does so in a way that appreciates the value instead of an immediate impact. Whether you’re looking to achieve a contemporary look for modern travellers or an antiquated traditional feel, the sleigh bed is the chameleon of the bed world. 

Ideal for: Boutique hoteliers who want a bed that can flex to their every design whim and look great in any setting.

Wood is well known to be the perfect material for the bedroom as it evokes feelings of warmth and comfort. There’s only one material that can enhance this aesthetic, and that’s leather. Durable, reliable and effortlessly stylish, a leather bed can last a lifetime and look the part no matter the era or the trend. The combination of wood and leather leaves a lasting impression and adds a touch of class to proceedings that your guests won’t forget in a hurry. 

Ideal for: Boutique hotels that want to harness the earthly qualities of solid wood and combine it with the luxury of leather.

The ideal choice for boutique hotels that want to attract clientele with a discerning eye for all things modern and full of character.
