The Best Nightstands to Enhance Your Bedroom Decor

Although your bed and mattress naturally serve as the main focus of the bedroom, the other furniture pieces are just as important in creating a functional and attractive space. Nightstands provide convenient storage for things you like to keep close while you're in bed, such as books, glasses, or a watch. They also offer a practical spot for everyday essentials. Beyond their usefulness, a well-chosen nightstand can complement your bed and bring the entire bedroom design together.

How to Select the Right Nightstand

One of the first things to consider when shopping for a nightstand is how well its appearance coordinates with your bed. Above all, select a finish, color, and design that appeals to your personal taste and works with your existing decor.

Height is another important factor. Since you want everything on your nightstand to be within easy reach, the top of the table should ideally sit around the same level as your mattress. A nightstand that is approximately two to four inches higher than the mattress can also work well.

City Mattress Nightstand Styles

City Mattress carries a broad selection of nightstands in different materials, finishes, sizes, and design styles. Several pieces coordinate with collections found in our dresser selection, making it easier to create a cohesive bedroom.

For easier comparison, the available options can be divided into single-drawer and two-drawer nightstands.

Single-Drawer Nightstands

For a relaxed coastal atmosphere, the Sea Winds Trading Islamorada Nightstand is constructed from solid wood and treated with water-based finishes. Its weathered gray finish combined with softly glazed white wood creates an unmistakable seaside character.

The Greenington Vale Havana Nightstand takes a different approach, using solid bamboo with a deep Havana stain that brings out the natural beauty and texture of the material.

For a more traditional bedroom, the Madison Park Signature Victoria Light Natural Wood 1-Drawer Nightstand offers a simple, classic appearance with a lightly finished natural wood look that works especially well with neutral interiors.

The Madison Park Signature Yardley Reclaimed Gray Wood 1-Drawer Nightstand combines a timeless appearance with subtle contemporary sophistication. Another classic choice is the Linon Reid Walnut Wood 1-Drawer Nightstand, which features a rich dark walnut finish.

If contemporary design is more your style, the Greenington Legend Bamboo Nightstand is crafted from sustainable bamboo and finished in a deep ruby shade.

The LumiSource Midas Contemporary Storage Side Table combines a white drawer with an eye-catching geometric gold frame, giving it the versatility to complement a variety of modern interiors.

Another LumiSource option, the Roman Contemporary Storage End Table, features a comparable geometric structure in silver. Its single drawer has a dark woodgrain appearance, creating an attractive contrast with the metallic frame.

Two-Drawer Nightstands

For those who prefer a more weathered coastal style while needing additional storage, the Sea Winds Trading Islamorada Nightstand provides two drawers while maintaining the same beach-inspired character as the single-drawer design.

The Vaughan Bassett Sawmill Nightstand combines rustic white with a natural woodgrain appearance, giving the bedroom an aged and traditional character.

For another coastal-inspired option, the Sea Winds Trading Monaco Nightstand is offered in straightforward white or blue finishes and brings a relaxed seaside feel to the bedside area.

Among the traditional two-drawer choices, the JLM Furniture Dunes Wood Nightstand is available in left- and right-facing configurations. Its sandy wood finish combines traditional details with contemporary styling for a balanced appearance.

The Linon Reid Walnut Wood 2-Drawer Nightstand features a warm, substantial walnut finish that can coordinate easily with a wide variety of bedroom designs.

For a mid-century-inspired appearance, the INK + IVY Jeremy White 2-Drawer Storage Nightstand combines a white frame with drawers in either a striking blue or understated gray.

The Linon Mid Century 2-Drawer Nightstand blends mid-century influences with contemporary styling through its streamlined two-tone wood finish. Its solid wood angled legs provide a distinctive visual detail, while the natural grain adds warmth.

Another standout option is the Vaughan Bassett Dovetail Sun Bleached White 2-Drawer Nightstand. Its prominent dovetail construction appears at the upper front corners, while the reclaimed-wood-inspired finish includes visible splits, knots, and cracks created with ATAP™ Technology.
