Guest towels in bamboo and how to wash them

Short answer: A guest towel in bamboo is soft and should be washed by the label, often at a low to medium temperature and with little fabric softener. Let it dry fully so it is always fresh when visitors come.

A guest towel in bamboo

A guest towel is a small towel that hangs in the bathroom or toilet for people who come to visit. It is used briefly but often, so softness and quick drying matter more than size, and bamboo is a choice many people consider.

Why guests need their own

Guests should get a clean towel that is not the same one you dry yourself with after the bath. A separate guest towel shows consideration, keeps yours free from other people's use and is easy to change when the visit is over.

Size and thickness

For guests a small, light towel is often the most practical, because it dries quickly and takes little room by the basin. For hands, bamboo towels in a small size are a good choice, and you can keep several identical ones.

How to wash them

Wash guest towels by the label, often at the stated temperature and together with other towels. Do not use too much fabric softener, because it can make the terry less absorbent, and avoid zips in the same machine so they do not pull threads.

Drying and freshness

A towel hanging in a small, damp room rarely dries completely. Change it more often if the bathroom is cramped, and let it air between uses so it does not begin to smell, even if it has only been in use for a day.

How often to change

A hand towel should be changed more often than you think, because many people use it during a day. Change it when guests have been, or every second day if it is used a lot, and always change it if it smells or feels damp.

Bedding for the guest room

If guests stay overnight, bamboo bedding can make the bed soft and inviting, and you can keep the set for people who sleep over. Remember to wash it before first use and follow the label, so everything is ready when the guests arrive.

Sleepwear for the guest

A guest who has forgotten their sleepwear can borrow something soft, and bamboo Night Shorts for Women are easy to keep at home. Wash them after use and put them away for the next visit, so you are prepared without it taking much room.
