But with space at a premium, catering for your guests can be difficult. However, even those living in a single bedroom apartments or maisonettes can make stylish and effective additions to their furniture which still allow extra sleepers when needed – you don’t even need the additional bedroom!
Guest beds have changed a lot since the old days of having a blow up mattress or foldaway (and uncomfortable) bed.
There are a vast array of choices available today which offer stunning decorative additions to any room, so whatever space you have available there is bound to be an option to suit you. Current choices include:
Antique Style Day Beds
Day beds are one of the best choices for those with limited space or looking to make their room multi functional. Following the fashionable antique style trend that is very popular, the Day bed can be used and dressed as seating from day to day. However when guests arrive it opens out into a comfortable double for 2 people.

| Wooden Guest Bed |
Wooden guest beds come in modern and traditional styles, and normally act as a single bed from day to day. The second bed is normally located beneath the normal bed and can be easily pulled out and dressed to make a double or 2 single beds.
Metal Guest Beds
Metal Guest Beds work in a similar way to the wooden beds – often with a second bed located beneath the original which acts as a single bed normally (giving you extra space in the room). The bed frames vary but there are options available to suit both a modern and traditional home.
Leather Guest Beds
Leather guest beds look very modern and are a popular choice in new homes – often used in show homes by major builders. Like the wooden and metal beds the second bed is located beneath a single for easy installation and can be quickly put away again after use. Most common leather bed colours are Brown, White and Black.
As mentioned above, many guest beds are suitable for use as a normal bed day to day and can open out into a double or 2 singles, which can be very useful in a childrens room as well. Small Double Beds are sometimes a suitable consideration for a guest bed as well.
