@suzanne_m the top are sliding doors. The black half circle on the left is where the powerpoints are.

Hi Hanz. Queen. :)

What is the width of your bedside tables and your dresser(s)?

@suzanne_m the photo I've uploaded is the bed we were thinking of buying. we haven't bought anything for the master bedroom yet. At this moment, we're just trying to figure out what size to get to see how much room we have or if we have any room to have bed side tables and dressers.

Hanz, I made the floor plan below. I used a queen size bed and 2 floating shelves as a bedside tables. They are
only 20 cm deep. This should give you an idea of how much free space left after the furniture is in.

Oops, sorry, The entrance of the ensuite was not located at the right place on my floor plan. I believe that it is .57 m to the right of the wall. Correct? If so, you can have .5 m deep floating shelf or a bedside table that deep if you can find it. I live in Canada and it is 3 a.m. here. It's time for me to go to bed.

Oops again, I forgot to attached to floor plan

I put a queen size bed in the plan above. This means that the maximum size for bedside tables (or shelves) is .5 m x .95 m. In the plan below, I put a king size bed. This means that the maximum size for the bedsides tables is .5 m x .75m.

Thanks so much suzanne_m :) this gives me a clearer image of how much room we have to play with once the bed is in. Oh wow 3am! I guess there's a 12 hour difference between us.

Is it normal for the bed and bedside table to take up most of the wall or should there still be some space ideally?

I never thought of putting the dresser/tallboy in that position. I guess it makes more sense. Especially for me coz I hate seeing the mirror in the dark :p

A queen.

Is all your existing bed linen queen size?

Not even close..... Go with the KING.

I like a queen for your room. There's no personal physical reason to go with a king and your room isn't huge so in order to keep the bed in proportion to the room...go queen. You may be able to squeeze everything in with a king but it will look tight. Why limit your options?

I was a bit tired yesterday when I drew the floor plan. I made few mistakes. According to the floor plans below (first plan is with a queen size bed and second plan is with a king size bed), the maximum size for a bedside table (or shelf) if you put a queen side bed would be .55 m x .95 m. The maximum size for a bedside table if you put a king side bed would be .55 m x .75 m.

Looking at the floor plan, I would say that if you have a queen size bed at this moment and it does not disturb your sleep then stay with a queen because it gives you 1.04 m to walk around. If you find that your sleep is disturbed (the partner moves and you feel it or any other reason) then go with a king size because walking around in a narrower space (.84 m) is worth a good sleep. The standard space to be comfortable to walk between your bed and your ensuite should be 1.01 m or 42 in. in the US system.

For the bedside tables, I think because they are not as deep as a standard bedside table (I think standard depth is .61 m - but I could be wrong - Houzzers what do you think?), it feels more luxurious to have them longer so they don't look too tiny compare to your bed. Specially if it is shelves because they are opened at the bottom or if you get a king size bed.

The image of the dresser in my floor plan can be any height you want but cannot be wider than 1 m.

Before buying any furniture, I would recommend that you use a blue tape (painter's tape) and draw a king size bed with the tape on your floor. It would allow you to see more precisely what is the space left for the rest of the furniture you can put in your room and be able to move around somewhat comfortably. It may confirm that you cannot get a king size bed. I recommend this even more in case I made a mistake in the scale when I drew your floor plan.

Hi Just my two cents - As long as you have room to walk around, go for the king if that is going to give you the better night's sleep. Ultimately, while it's great to have a beautiful and proportioned master bedroom, it's private and it's where you sleep, so the most important thing is that it's comfortable for you. Personally, one of my favorite things about staying in a hotel is a king sized bed and I look forward to replacing my queen even though my master is small.

One thing that might help your decision. If you get a memory foam mattress and the platform (what you'd think of as a replacement for box springs) then it won't matter what size your bed is because there is no movement of the mattress when your partner turns over or even gets up at night. You just need to make sure that you don't use your old box springs with a memory foam mattress or that feature will be lost.

I agree with 0825sam. Go for king, will never go back to queen. A reasonably safe distance from a snoring husband : ).

I have a king size and love it. Had to find a house that fitted it, however. So you may regret it when you move one day.

I have had both and the queen is much easier to make up each day.

This discussion is 16 months old.

Luke is right, I had to give my KS away when I moved.

King

I think we should call it the "main" bedroom and not the "master" bedroom. King if you have the space.

I personally love a king size in a master but they can look too big in some rooms. This may be the case here too, especially with your chosen bed. However as long as you have enough room to move around it you will be comfortable in that regard. If you were to go king I would suggest looking at a bed with just a bed head or a separate bed head with ensemble as this will not dominate the room room to much and make it feel smaller. Then find side tables that are floating or light in structure with open legs so you can see through to the wall. Good luck
