Four tips for a perfect and comfortable luxury hotel-style bed in your home.
The secrets and the details you should never overlook in Beltrami’s golden rules to create the five-star bed of your dreams.
1. How to arrange the pillows.
Beds in hotel suites are vast, and pillows – with perfectly ironed pillowcases – must match the width of the bed to avoid creating an impression of emptiness.
Place decorative pillows side by side, even if they are of different materials, for an inviting and welcoming bed. For a luxury effect, remember to position the pillows perfectly against the headboard.
2. Don’t neglect the details: the valance is often overlooked.
Despite its fundamental role of covering the lower part of the bed, unfortunately it is often made of poor quality material. We recommend a made-to-measure valance in a carefully selected fabric of appropriate colour.
Remember – luxury is always a matter of detail!
3. The bedspread – a decorative item, elegantly dressing the bed and protecting the sheets.
It should be in a style that blends with its surroundings, and it is therefore important to choose suitable fabrics of good quality. Beltrami emphasises the importance of a careful choice of colour to match the furniture or create an elegant contrast.
4. Eiderdown and pillowcases, the final touch for a truly sumptuous bed, and an alternative to bedspreads.
The duvet must be exactly the right size for the bed, and complemented by Oxford pillowcases. Not only aesthetic, but practical – relaxing warmth and comfort with no bedclothes to disturb!
