Your bedroom should be more than just a place to sleep—it should feel like a luxurious retreat. If you’ve ever stayed in a high-end hotel and wished you could bring that same level of comfort home, you’re in luck! With Alicia Thomasson Interiors, we can transform your bedroom into a timeless and serene space that rivals any five-star resort. There are many intricate design elements involved, but here are a few things we incorporate:

1. High-Quality Bedding
Luxury hotels always prioritize comfort, starting with the bed. We upgrade your sleep experience with:
• The perfect sheets for YOU (sheets are very personal - we get that)
• A plush yet supportive mattress
• A fluffy down or down-alternative duvet
• Layered pillows
Pro Tip: Don't be afraid of white bedding. It's easy to clean and gives a clean, sophisticated appearance.
2. Area Rug
Stepping onto a soft rug first thing in the morning makes a huge difference. We often incorporate a soft area rug or carpeting to add warmth, coziness, and color.
3. Ambient Lighting
Hotel rooms use layered lighting to create a soothing atmosphere. When designing a bedroom, we incorporate:
• Bedside lamps or sconces

• Soft LED strip lighting
• Warm, indirect lighting for a cozy glow
4. Declutter & Keep It Minimal
Luxury hotels have a “less is more” approach to decor. We stage the space to display a few accessories like:
• A vase with flowers
• A tray for jewelry or perfume
• Coffee table books or candles
5. Upgraded Window Treatments
Hotels use blackout curtains to create a restful sleep environment. By investing blackout-lined drapes, or two panel curtains (blackout and sheer for daytime), your space not only feels cozy and inviting, but also functions effortlessly.
6. Incorporate a Seating Area
If space allows, we will add a lounge chair, chaise, or bench at the foot of the bed. This creates a polished, hotel-like feel while providing a functional place to sit and relax. Or toss some of the "in between" laundry we all have seen!
7. Add Personalized Touches
While hotel rooms are elegant, they can feel impersonal. To make your space truly yours, we incorporate:
• Artwork that reflects your style
• A statement headboard, light fixture, or unique accent wall
• Decorative pillows and throws that truly reflect you and your style
