Best hotel mattresses to buy

Contract mattresses are mattresses that are designed for commercial environments such as hotels and educational premises. They have to qualify in specific testing to ensure they meet the standard for fire safety and quality regulations. As they are made to be used in hotels, hostels and B&Bs, they are incredibly durable, supportive and comfortable and are also perfect for home use!

We've handpicked a range of mattresses that are similar to hotel mattresses. These are high-quality and super-luxurious, but they're only suitable for use in the home. You cannot use them in a hotel, B&B, hostel or other commercial or educational settings.

How do hotels make their beds so comfortable?

At least once, everyone has wondered how hotels make their beds so comfortable. Well, we’ve compiled a list of things that you can add to your bed and mattress to achieve that cosy, relaxing hotel feel.

Choose high-quality sheets

The best hotel beds often choose specific sheets to create a calm and comfortable sleeping environment. The bedding they use is often made of cotton because it’s soft and naturally breathable so you can stay at the perfect temperature in any season. Most hotel sheets have a thread count of at least 250, meaning they feel more weighted and snug as you drift off to sleep.

Invest in a mattress topper

An easy addition to make to your mattress to make it feel up to the high-end hotel standard is a mattress topper. Mattress toppers fit over the top of your mattress to give it a new lease of life and offer enhanced comfort and support while you sleep. This means it'll feel just like you're falling asleep in a relaxing hotel.

Add some super-comfy pillows

We can help you find the best pillows to give you hotel-level comfort. In many luxury hotels, pillows with natural fillings are used because they’re perfect to sink into and they make each pillow feel light and fluffy so you can fall asleep in absolute bliss.

Couple relaxing on a bed

Now you’re ready to turn your bedroom into the ultimate hotel experience! When you sleep on one of our hotel mattresses, we guarantee it’ll feel just like you’re relaxing in a luxury hotel. Why not check out our entire range of contract and luxury mattresses? And to complete the hotel feel, browse our bedding collection to add the final touches to your bed.
