Everyone loves a glamorous hotel room – the elegant décor, beautiful linen and moody lighting. But you don’t have to save it for weekends away. It’s possible to achieve the look at home in just a few simple steps, and without stressing the credit card too much. Take a look at these elegant essential ingredients, then start planning…

Fall for a four poster
This style of bed is a classic – and timelessly romantic. Whether you choose a minimal design or go all out with a carved number, plump for short pencil posts or go the whole hog with a canopy, a four-poster bed always says glamour. Drape with soft fabric for a cosy mood.

Work in a wow headboard
A tall, statement headboard will not only bring colour and texture to the room, it will add a sense of height and grandeur. For an elegant look, choose a plain neutral and incorporate stitching or buttoning into the upholstery.

Energise with an accent colour
Smart neutrals are key to glamorous hotel style, but a single bright used as an accent can really lift a scheme without spoiling the effect. Yellow works beautifully with black, grey or brown – choose a rich fabric, such as this velvet, and add through accessories that can easily be swapped if you fancy a change.

Big up your bedside table
A beautifully styled bedside table can really transform your room and help you rest that little bit easier at night. This design has drawers for those non-beautiful items (earplugs, anyone?) and a slot for your latest read. A stylish bedside lamp is a must, and why not swap the usual paraphernalia for fresh flowers? You deserve it!

Say yes to beautiful bed linen
An essential part of creating a hotel-style bedroom is making sure your linen is lovely. Buy the best you can for dreamy nights and smart days.
Here, the grey quilt and pink and grey cushions chime elegantly with the dark grey walls without being too matchy-matchy.

Opt for an ottoman
Having a footstool, trunk or chaise at the bottom of your bed is a winner in the hotel style stakes. It’s the perfect place to stack magazines, try on shoes or nibble breakfast. Plus, it’s a great way to introduce a little pattern into a plain scheme, as this design shows.

Wake up to a feature wall
One bold wall can look fabulous, especially framing a statement bed. For elegant style, though, make sure you ground it with neutrals. This botanical leaf print and white ornate bed work prettily together, but the black cushions and lamps are key to keeping the look chic rather than girlie.

Stretch to a bath
A tub in the bedroom is a luxury more often seen in hotel rooms, but who says you can’t have it at home? Step straight from your candlelit bath into fresh sheets for the most decadent of bedroom experiences.

Treat yourself to a dressing table
An area where you can style your hair or apply make-up in comfort is a luxury must-have! It doesn’t have to take up loads of room. This elegant little set-up has everything you could need, and the neutral colours and reflective surfaces make it a minimal presence in the room.

Introduce subtle sheen
Subtly gleaming surfaces, especially in pale shades, add sophisticated glamour. From polished chrome and smooth leather to glossy satin and rich velvet, the materials in this room give it a super-luxurious feel.
