It might not be the first thing you notice as you step into a boutique hotel room, but quality bedding always adds to the feeling of luxuriousness.
Experiment with adding different layers of pillows and invest in quality sheets and duvet covers such as the Sove Linen Duvet Cover from Città. Made from 100% flax linen sourced from Belgium and France, the fabric is breathable and highly absorbent – creating a comfortable sleep environment year-round.
Bedside pendants are an effective way to emulate the feel of a hotel room – especially if they add ambient illumination to the space. Play around with product choice to achieve the aesthetic you're after: fabric pendants can introduce warmth and texture, while brass adds a sense of luxuriousness.
Bring a spa-like experience to the home bathroom or ensuite by installing a floor-mounted bath filler. With a sophisticated brass finish and curved forms, the Oscar floor-mounted bathrooms filler from ABI Interiors, for example, can bring an instant feel of luxury to your bathing experience.
For the ultimate bath experience that will make you feel like you’re still on holiday, consider an outdoor bath. Many freestanding bathtubs can be used indoors as well as outdoors.
In particular, stone baths can be easily maintained when left outside. Their organic forms and natural surface texture also promise in delivering a moment of relaxation.
Colour can have a huge impact on the way we feel in a space, and interior designers carefully curate the colours within boutique hotels to make spaces either feel bright and cheerful or calming and restorative, for example – gone are the days of ‘white box’ hotel rooms.
Whether it’s with a coat of paint, tiling choices in the master ensuite, or the simple addition of colour through bedding and accessories, consider how you want to feel in your space and use colour to help achieve this.
In boutique stays, artworks and products are often on display to celebrate the local area – and the same can be done at home. Explore artists and makers from around your town and add an original artwork to the kitchen or bedroom.
