Guests Staying Over? Here’s How To Make Them Feel At Home

Making your guests feel at home is an art! Anybody can host guests but it really takes some skill to ensure your guests feel absolutely comfortable. However, thankfully, this art is not hard to master. All you need is a welcoming persona and the tips you will read below.

Here’s how to be the perfect host and make your overnight guests feel comfortable:

Make Your Home Clean & Tidy

Nobody likes to stay in an unclean and messy place. If your home is clean and tidy, it will automatically cast a good impression on the guests and increase their comfort level. So make sure you get rid of the clutter and get any repairs (e.g. leaking taps) done before your guests arrive.

Stock Up On Their Favourite Food & Drinks

You remember the time when you went to a relative’s place and they’d cooked your favourite dish for you? Didn’t you just love that surprise? Treating your guests to their favourite meals will make you win their hearts in an instant! And even if you don’t plan to cook, you can always order from good restaurants or stock up the snacks and beverages they like.

Plan Something For Them

To make your guests’ stay truly memorable, you must plan for some other activities apart from chatting and dining. And the good news is, you don’t have to take too much effort. Just put on a nice movie, do karaoke, play cards, or if you want to go the classic way, play antakshari! Activities like these will help to do away with the air of formality and make your guests comfortable and happy

Plan For Kids

If your guests will be bringing children along with them, make sure you have arrangements for them as well. And it’s not as challenging as it may seem. At most times, all that children need is their favourite food, a friendly conversation or some games to play to feel comfortable.

Make A Good Bed

If your guests sleep well, they’d feel lively and positive throughout their entire stay. So make sure you put clean sheets on their bed, provide fluffy pillows and soft blankets. 

Ensure Bathroom & Toilet Hygiene 

Some people are very particular about toilet and bathroom hygiene.So make sure you keep your toilets squeaky clean, provide clean, unused towels, have a pair of extra toothbrushes if possible and separate soap, shampoo & conditioner for your guests.

If you follow these simple tips, rest assured that your guests will remember the hospitality they received. Better yet, they will want to visit you more often!  And last but not the least, you need to have enough space in your home to make your guests’ stay comfortable. A separate room for your guests increases your as well as your guests’ comfort level, as both of you get the privacy you need.  If you belong to the type of people who often have guests over, and if your current home doesn’t give you sufficient space, you might want to upgrade to a better home.
