Make Your Bedroom More Like a Hotel Room
Could you start your week feeling more refreshed by turning your bedroom into a hotel-like sanctuary? A recent poll found that 73% of people sleep better in hotels, so Lifehacker.com put together a list of four simple ways to bring that hotel magic into your own home. Here’s how:
1. Upgrade Your Bedding
Hotels, even mid-range ones, often boast high-quality mattresses, pillows, sheets, and duvets. You don’t need to book a stay to enjoy that luxury—many hotels now sell their bedding, or you can find out which brands they use to upgrade your own.
2. Make Your Room Darker
Hotel rooms tend to be darker than your typical bedroom, even with all the lights on. Less light equals better sleep, which is why hotels often include blackout curtains. Try adding these to your space for a more restful night.
3. Lower the Temperature
Did you know the ideal sleep temperature is around 65 degrees? It’s no wonder hotel rooms are kept so cool! Lowering your bedroom’s temperature might improve your sleep quality, too.
4. Keep It Clean
Clutter and mess can negatively affect sleep, so keeping a tidy space is key. Hotels are cleaned regularly, and the beds are always made—so why not treat your bedroom the same way?
Give these tips a try, and you might just wake up feeling as rested as if you’d spent the night in a luxury suite!
