A welcoming room that makes your guests go “ahhh...”

Make the most of that first impression with modern furniture, clean lines, and wooden surfaces. An easy way to create a calm overall expression is to pick a neutral base palette for fixtures like walls, floors, wardrobes, and headboard covers. Add a pinch of personality to this classic hotel room decor recipe with just a few bright-coloured items.

Comfort is all in the details

After a long journey, it’s nice to unwind on an inviting and classic SAGESUND bed made with fluffy pillows and sheets. Make your guests feel fabulous with BREDVECKLARE bed linen made from a soft cotton/viscose blend and waffle-textured bathrobes.
