How to Make Your Home Feel Like a Luxury Hotel

 

A Five-Star Retreat at Home: The Art of creating Daily Luxuriance. We have all had the temporary, near magical feeling of entering an exquisite hotel room. All the items seem to be meant to have you relax, the bed is in perfect shape, the air has a hint of sandalwood and fresh linen. The stress of daily life is gone in a couple of days. When you get home, the magic is then broken. But what were you to do, it you could capture that feeling of tranquility, peacock grace, and use it in your daily life? The key is not huge architectural re-modeling or unlimited budget.

All that matters is the mindset- a commitment to provide a space with your health as its first priority with careful design and sensory experiences. Your house can be made a personal retreat that is as good as your favorite fancy hotel. The epiphany that luxury hotels are the art of the environment and not merely expensive furniture is the underpinning to this transformation. They understand how organization, texture, lighting and smell all combine to create some kind of pleasure and refuge. You can begin to consider your house as a place of healing instead of a place to live by borrowing some of their basic concepts.

How to make a bed like a five-star hotel

We can begin with the bedroom that is the center of any beautiful stay at a hotel. This is an abode within an abode of thy own. It is meant to make the process of sleeping a treat and an event. The bed, itself, is undoubtedly the centre of a luxurious hotel bedroom. It is a nice warm cloud, not a piece of furniture. Buying fresh, cool, and normally neutral white or cream cotton sheets of high thread count will enable you to recreate this effect. To make it more interesting and provide personal comfort, place a range of pillows of varying degrees of firmness on top of a soft duvet.

The second part of the luxury experience is the bathroom very close to the bedroom. It is your individual spa where you can literally and symbolically cleanse yourself out of the day. The first step is that of using senses. Hang your large, absorbent towels, preferably, over a towel rail that is hot. One small yet meaningful luxury is to wrap oneself into a warm and fluffy towel after the shower. Deliberately add perfume. A fine, quality diffuser loaded with such essential oils as lavender or eucalyptus or fresh linen can transform the whole ambience.

You can achieve this balance by focusing on a limited number of key elements. Begin with a more neutral color combination. Beige, cream, gray and light taupe colors are united together to attain a classic and serene backdrop that is space and calm. Personality and texture can be added to this canvas. One object of statement in the room can anchor the room, like a sculptural floor lamp or a velvet armchair. Some well chosen coffee table books or big framed pieces of art would offer a sophisticated appearance without crowding too much.

Creating a Peaceful and Noise-Free Environment

Even the unwanted noises can be muted and the quietness of the environment enhanced by subtle instrumental music or even the tiniest water playing. Lightly colored heavy drapes will not only make your house look good, but also help prevent external noise, as well as creating the impression of a tranquil retreat in your home. Cleanliness and orderliness of a luxury hotel are the key characteristics of the hotel in the long term. It is of keeping composure, of not being sterile. It should be a habit, taking only ten minutes a night to clean up, to put everything back in its place. Establish a thorough cleaning program that involves cleaning, dusting, and surface polishing regularly. Your mind has the chance to relax to the full extent when all things are in place. This feeling of comfortable order is the highest luxury.

Turning your house into a fancy hotel is not an objective but a conscious way of life. It is about choosing the day to day to be surrounded by peace, comfort and beauty. It is the smell of lavender in your bathroom, the gentle light of a lamp on an ugly night or the feeling of getting into fresh clean sheets in bed at night. When you attend to these little details, like how comfortable your bed is, how minimalistic your space is, how calm the light and scent is, you are doing more than merely decorating. You are purposely making it a refuge. This investing in your own daily comfort is creating a 5 star experience that you will enjoy upon entering your own front door and will not end at the point of purchase.
