The vast majority of high end hotel bedrooms feature a bench or Ottoman at the end of the bed. In a hotel, this is to provide a place for the throw and scatter cushions to sit after the turndown service at night. Now, unless you're living the Downton life, turndown probably happens about two seconds before you get into bed in your own home – but the end-of-bed chair can still be used to store your bedroom bits and a spot to sit while you kick your shoes off.
If space is tight, you can take it one step further by choosing an option that will allow you to stash even more stuff. This large storage stool from Woodie's (pictured above) totally ticks that box.
We love the plush grey velvet finish – although it's also available in emerald green, navy, light blue and yellow - as well as the €40 price tag. Team it with a rich throw in a complimentary shade to drape artfully across the bed, and every night can feel like a mini-break.
Woodie's also produce a smaller version of the storage stool in a range of colours, including this beautiful saffron yellow. It costs just €15 and can be slotted in anywhere else you want to add a touch of hotel luxe to your house.
