Best Hotel Beds – And Where You Can Buy ThemIN FEBRUARY, I went to Charleston, S.C., to explore its happening food scene and frozen-in-amber 19th-century architecture, but I couldn’t tell you much about either: I barely got out of bed. The billowy mattress, silky-smooth sheets, puffy down comforter and mountain of pillows at the Vendue, an inn in the city’s historic district, were positively narcotic. My husband had to pry me out. The bed even made up for the hotel’s spotty service. On the first day of our two-night vacation, the housekeeper didn’t get to our...

Trump, Without Evidence, Accuses Obama of Wiretapping Him I Would like to ask the forum. Which hotel chain has the most comfortable beds after a long day of travelling.( any bed is good) Taking in account softness,hardness,linen quality and pillows.
I'm In favour of the marriot chain. I think this depends more on individual locations than an entire chain. Each chain can have good franchises and bad franchises. I remember staying at several Marriotts and they had a sign in the room that said "Do not take the mattress with you. We will be happy to have a new one shipped to your home - Shipping depends on the location" They were very good beds. We like the beds at Hampton inn. Some Choice hotels have nice pillow tops. Depends on the hotel though. Marriott Beds have been comfortable I cannot tell you for sure which hotel type has the best beds or most comfortable ones, but I do like theese. I actually like the Hilton Garden Inn that has some kind of adjustable firmness on their beds. I am not totally sure the dial actually does any good but it makes me feel like I am in control, lol. On a recent Road Trip I would not rate the Marriott we stayed in as having good beds so I am with PeachBelle in that it also depends on the location.
This particular Marriott was a well used location. I've found the Hilton Family of hotels to have excellent mattresses and bed comfort. As Tom Bodett says, once you close your eyes, all hotels rooms, and presumably the beds, look and feel the same. Any chain will be good. We almost never had bad beds on our travels. Based purely on our own experiences of travelling around the USA, I don't think it's any specific brand or chain that has the best beds, so much as how new that particular property is or how recently the rooms including beds and mattresses were refurbed and renewed. Thus we stayed in basic motels and found really good beds because the place had only been opened for 6 weeks and we have paid over $250 in a well regarded brand and found the beds disappointingly lousy. However, on average, most beds recently have been at worst tolerable, and overall perfectly comfortable, not too hard or soft, and not saggy in the middle. TripAdvisor reviews can often have good clues to how recent the rooms were done up on older properties.
If, as a separate issue, you're fussy about pillows, then certain brands have 'pillow' menus, so you can get harder or softer ones from somewhere, or the beds are made up with about 6 pillows of different densities and levels of firmness. As a light sleeper, being able to get a comfortable temp for sleeping from an individually controllable and variable air conditioner, a lack of noise from the road and other external sources , or from neighbouring rooms, elevators, and internal geography, etc plus drapes that really do block out all light, including at edges and in the middle impact my ability to sleep in strange beds just as much. Edited: 8:31 am, August 06, 2015 I haven't stayed in a Hampton,I'll look out for one. I Like the one about the sign,don't take our mattress. There is a lot of veritables.I think the pillows play a lot in the experience. You may have a lovely bed but if the pillow doesn't suit your taste it can spoil your stay. I like a thin firm pillow and a lot of hotels have high soft pillows.
So many time I've got a towel from the bathroom and used it as a pillow ,best western is a classic for that but the beds are quite good for the price. I still like the marriot ,especially the one at LAX after the long haul flight from Australia. Tets comment, "Any chain will be good" is the best comment on this subject. The chains have a reputation to uphold and regional/district managers and the single owner or Mom & Pop properties can be very good or completely indifferent, particularly if they are in a high traffic area as there is almost always someone next in line!.

How to Make a Hotel Bed, Fluffy sheets, oodles of pillows -- if we could sleep in hotel beds all the time, we totally would. So we did a little digging, and it turns out t...1. Four Seasons Bed Four Seasons’ fully customizable bed was developed in partnership with Simmons Bedding Company. The Four Seasons Bed mattresses feature GelTouch Foam Center heat-absorption technology that keeps you cool and comfortable throughout the night. As well, the bed has pocketed coil motion separation that minimizes disturbance when you or your partner moves around. Additionally, you can choose from three different mattress tops that vary in levels of firmness: Signature, Signature Firm, or Signature Plush. The beds are currently being rolled out across hotels in the U.S.A., but you can have a sublimely comfortable sleep in your own home by buying your own. These beds are never sold in stores so you need to purchase from a hotel directly. A set (including mattress, box spring and topper) starts at $2,199 for a twin.
2. Westin Heavenly Bed The aptly named Westin Heavenly Bed is renowned among jetsetters for its ability to create a divine, restful sleep anywhere in the world. The plush pillow-top mattress eases you into a deep sleep, while pocketed coils minimize movement and disturbance from bedmates. The Heavenly Bed is widely available, on sale at Nordstrom and Pottery Barn, as well as through Westin’s own website. Prices start at $1,368 for a twin mattress with box spring and bed frame. To really create the heavenly experience, and fresh scent, of a Westin bedroom, we recommend adding a signature White Tea candle ($36) to your shopping cart. The French luxury hotel chain has 120 hotels in 40 countries across the world, but if you can’t spend every night in a Sofitel hotel, you can, at least, rest in a signature Sofitel SoBed. Custom designed for the hotel chain, the soft SoBed’s innerspring ensures support and diminishes movement. You will, Sofitel confidently claims, “awake each day with a natural joie de vivre.”
While we can’t quite guarantee your morning mood, we do concur this is a stellar bed. A twin set with mattress, box spring, and bed frame starts at $1,524. 4. W Hotels Bed If you want the W Hotel bed experience without the over-the-top scene-y W Hotel experience, you’ll just have to buy your own. Created by Simmons especially for W Hotels, you can choose from a plush top mattress with firm support that creates a solid foundation eliminating tossing and turning, or a softer pillow top mattress, which, W Hotels claim, “some guests describe as sleeping on a cloud.” Price starts at $1,399 for a twin including box spring and frame, or $2,776 for a queen set that comes with sheets, duvet, and four pillows. Truly the king of hotel beds, the Duxiana brand even has entire hotels in Sweden and China built around its luxe beds. A DUX bed is a sure sign of a great hotel and luxury hotels that can lay claim to this amenity include Burj Al Arab Jumeirah in Dubai and The Quin in New York City.
