You have to handle bed time with her for the next 2-4 weeks. Establish her a routine involving bathroom, water, story, cuddling. Then, make it clear she is not coming out that room. She will eventually stay in bed and sleep.

Oh she has a routine. Has had a routine since she was a baby. Most nights she is asking to go to bed before her bed time. We aren’t the sleep in our bed parents and never have been. She knows the deal, she just refuses to follow it some nights.

Routine, routine, routine. Ours started coming out her room right before her 4th birthday. It wasn't a knock-down, drag out fight, but there was always something. We stuck to that routine and in a week or two it ceased (now just an occasional excursion out). You'll get there.
