A fireplace adds warmth and elegance to any room, but in a bedroom, it transforms the space into a luxurious one, creating the perfect ambiance to relax, unwind, and bookend your day with comfort.

With a wide variety of modern fireplace options available, choosing the perfect one for your bedroom can be an exciting yet challenging task. How do you decide which one is right for you?

Today, we’ll walk you through key considerations to help you choose a fireplace that not only complements your bedroom’s style but also meets your practical needs.

1. Think About the Fireplace Type

When choosing a fireplace for your bedroom, the first decision to make is the type of fireplace that suits your space and lifestyle. Here are some options that could work for your layout:

Electric Fireplaces

These are easy to install and offer the convenience of plug-and-play functionality. Modern electric fireplaces provide a sleek design with realistic flame effects and customizable settings. They are ideal for those who are looking for low-maintenance and energy-efficient solutions, as they convert nearly all the energy they consume into heat, making them highly efficient in terms of energy usage.

Suspended Fireplaces

And last but not least, for a truly unique and artistic centerpiece, suspended fireplaces are the way to go. These eye-catching designs not only save floor space but also create a striking visual impact, perfect for modern bedroom designs.

What’s more, these fireplaces are perfect for open-concept living areas, creating a seamless flow between spaces while adding a touch of sophistication.

2. Evaluate the Room Size and Layout

Now that you know which fireplace you want, you need to evaluate the size and layout of your bedroom, as it plays a significant role in determining the right fireplace. For instance, a large, open bedroom can accommodate more dramatic options like a double-sided or four-sided / 360 fireplaces, allowing you to enjoy the flames from multiple angles. But, for smaller bedrooms, a single-sided or see-through fireplace might be more appropriate, offering warmth and ambiance without overwhelming the space.

You need to make sure that the fireplace you choose fits comfortably within your room’s dimensions and doesn’t obstruct movement or furniture placement.

3. Focus on Style and Aesthetics

Besides functionality, your fireplace should be about aesthetics too! Here, your bedroom’s interior design should guide the style of fireplace you choose. European Home, for instance, offers a range of modern fireplaces that can seamlessly integrate into various design themes you may like:

Minimalist Design

If your bedroom features clean lines and a minimalist aesthetic, opt for a sleek, frameless fireplace that blends seamlessly into the wall.

Industrial Look

For a more industrial or contemporary design, maybe think about a fireplace with exposed metal and bold geometric shapes, like a suspended or corner fireplace.

Classic Elegance

And, if your bedroom exudes classic elegance, a modern yet timeless fireplace design with a traditional mantel or stone finish can add a touch of sophistication while keeping it classy.

4. Prioritize Safety Features

As we’re dealing with fire, safety should be a top priority, especially in a bedroom setting. Choose a fireplace that is designed with advanced safety features, including automatic shut-off, and smart controls.

These features ensure that your fireplace not only enhances the ambiance but also gives you, and your loved ones, peace of mind.

5. Think About Adding Control Options

Convenience is key and, in today’s smart homes, controlling your fireplace is just a click away. Our modern electric fireplaces, for example, now come with app control, enabling you to adjust the heat, flame intensity, and even the lighting directly from your smartphone.

This feature is particularly useful in a bedroom setting, where you can create the perfect atmosphere without ever leaving the comfort of your bed.
