How to Host Guests When You Don't Have a Guest Room
With these tricks, it's easier than you'd think.
If extra beds for overnight visitors are nowhere in sight, you can still welcome guests for the weekend. Carve out space to help them feel at home, and follow our top tips for hosting without a guest room.
Clear a Spot for Luggage
Set up a corner with a luggage rack, ottoman, or folding chair to keep suitcases off the floor, and offer extra hangers in the hall closet so guests can unpack.
Designate a Sleeping Space
Lean on multi-purpose pieces, like daybeds, convertible sofas or chairs, and add an easy-to-store folding screen to give guests more privacy.
Bring In Bedroom Essentials
In place of a nightstand, simply use a tray to corral bedside must-haves, like an alarm clock, mirror, and box of tissues.
