Can I get king size beds in these rooms?

Hi! Is it possible I would be able to get a king size bed comfortably in bedroom 1 and the loft?
Be aware the bathroom doors open outward into the bedroom and the bedroom doors open into the rooms too so need to have enough space to open and close doors.

Sorry to clarify - bathroom doors open into the bathrooms0

My king size bed frame is 2.1m x 1.6m so depending on what other furniture (wardrobes, bedside tables, etc) you have you may find it a bit tight, width wise.0

Mark it out with masking tape on the floor to see how it feels. Consider a king size divan as that will have less length and width than a framed bed.
We got an ottoman storage king size divan and it take up hardly any more space than our old double due to hit having no 'foot' board and no extra width from the frame at the sides.0 -
I've just measured our bed and it's 2.2m long x 1.96m wide (I measured the length from the wall to allow for the slight gap between the wall and the bed - the width is exact).Sorry I can't think of anything profound, clever or witty to write here.0

Mine is 2.2m x 2m including a very narrow frame. It has underbed storage so that reduces the need for clothes storage in the room. It also depends how much space you like/need around the bed.Bedroom 1 looks OK: couple of options. Loft room a bit more awkward, but maybe with a bedside unit with chargers and alarm etc inside the recess it could be made to work.0

A kingsize bed is 5' wide or 1m 50cm, the sizes people are quoting are for super kings.
