Why are Hotel Mattresses so Comfortable?

1
Why are Hotel Mattresses so Comfortable? When you
travel for your business or personal reasons, you
expect a standard from a hotel or any luxury
hotel. The main factor one expects from their
stay in comfort and a break or relief from daily
life. That is why hotels focus on enhancing the
guest experience with a great location, stellar
services, amenities, and most importantly,
offering a comfortable bed. You may have noticed
the level of comfort that a hotel mattress/bed
provides, and for some reason, your luxury
mattress at home doesnt give the exact same
experience. This is because hotel mattresses are
built differently and for short-term comfort and
a softer sleeping experience. Hotel mattresses
are more comfortable because of how they are
built and suit a wide range of body frames.
However, a home luxury mattress would fit you and
your partners requirements in the long term.
When traveling, our shoulders, back, and the
entire body generally take on more physical work
than usual and need to be supported and
appropriately comforted when sleeping. The
pent-up physical stress and exhaustion need a
softer touch, and a hotel mattress delivers
exceptionally in this area. Comfort is helping
alleviate physical stress and helps you sleep
faster, which is essential when our brains see a
change in our sleeping environment. So, what
makes hotel mattresses stand out as a more
comfortable option than your everyday use
mattress? The guide below shows how luxury
mattresses for hotels use different construction
and materials Hotel Mattress Construction Altho
ugh you can get custom mattresses for hotels,
hotel mattress options or luxury mattresses for
hotels have a different build and construction.
The materials used are similar but vary in
density, thickness, use, and overall purpose. As
a result, a hotel mattress offers much more
comfort than an everyday mattress might, both
because of intended use and the difference in
construction. Here are the elements that set
hotel mattresses apart from your standard luxury
mattress 1. Support system Although hotel
mattresses are excellent at short-term comfort
and support, they also need to have a support
system that compliments the softness. To support
the mattress weight and rough use over the years
and provide your body with the proper support,
most hotel mattresses use an innerspring system.
In most cases, this innerspring system is either
a pocket coil system or a Bonnell coil system
that comes with different construction features
too. An innerspring pocket coil system is better
for long-term use for a wide range of body types
and also contours and comforts your body. When
installed in a hotel mattress, the innerspring
pocket coil system supports and comforts more,
lasts longer, and isolates motion, helping the
mattress last longer.

• Comfort layer The comfort layer of any luxury
  mattress for hotels defines and sets it apart in
  terms of the sleeping experience. The comfort
  layer needs to be dense enough to last long and
  soft to contour and comfort your muscles. PU
  Foam, HR foam, and memory foam are present in
  most variations of a hospitality mattress as
  they need to be light, comfortable, and
  contouring. The high-density variants of these
  comfort layers help ensure the proper comfort
  that molds the comfort layer as per the body
  type and environment. The comfort layer has to be
  long-lasting and temperature-neutral or slightly
  warm by offering the level of comfort and
  durability that one needs after a day of heavy
  traveling. Moreover, comfort layers may also use
  unique construction designs with the addition of
  a Euro top or pillow top design.
• Construction Sometimes, luxury hotels may opt
  for mattresses that look just as luxurious as
  they feel with a Euro top or Pillow-top mattress.
  These additional construction features help
  deliver an exceptionally comforting and
  contouring sleeping experience. In hotel
  mattresses, when guests are tired from traveling,
  the softer and more comfortable the mattress is,
  the better is the customer satisfaction.
  Additionally, these construction features also
  stand out from an everyday mattress because they
  work to offer an exceptionally soft experience.
• Euro-top padding looks like it is part of the
  mattress, and a pillow top looks like a
• flattened pillow attached to the mattress. In
  either of these mattress configurations, you can
  experience the best form of comfort and body
  contouring and even a temperature-neutral or
  slightly warm sleeping experience. Moreover,
  these construction options are comfort enhancers
  rather than the sole reasons. So, if youre
  looking for a hotel mattress or a hotel-like
  mattress, the comfort layer beneath is just as
  important as part of an essential combination.
• Overall experience Your everyday use luxury
  mattress may be orthopedic or supportive/plush
  in the perfect balance for long-term use. But in
  a hotel mattress, a softer sleeping experience
  is essential. A guest that isnt used to a firmer
  sleeping surface may find it uncomfortable to
  sleep in the bed leading to a bad overall
  experience. However, everyone, irrespective of
  body shape, size, or other demographic features,
  prefers a softer mattress. At the end of the day,
  after extensive traveling or just relaxing in
  the room, a softer hospitality mattress is
  essential in offering a snug and plush
  sleeping/relaxing experience. A high-quality
  luxury hotel mattress would offer a soft sleeping
  experience, and the innerspring system or the
  high-density support system can enhance the
  overall support. Just as an orthopedic mattress
  has a firmer surface, a hotel mattress offers a
  soft and plush sleeping experience to comfort
  the guests tired muscles. And even if youre
  worried about your support levels, most hotel
  mattresses also have a robust support system
  that helps with spinal and general posture
  alignment. So once youre relaxing in your hotel
  room, a luxury mattress can make or break the
  overall experience.

• Hotel mattress raw materials and properties
• Different materials and how they function are
  essential in delivering the unique soft sleeping
  experience for years in luxury hotel mattresses.
  So, if youre looking for the best mattress for
  hotels in general, these features and material
  properties are essential for guest satisfaction
  across a broader demographic. Hospitality
  mattresses also need to last longer and sustain
  different guests over the years while providing
  the same high-quality sleeping experience. To
  make this possible, luxury mattresses for hotels
  need to have these features
• Fire retardant materials In the hospitality
  industry, fire and other incidents can ruin the
  businesss reputation and infrastructure. And
  sometimes, all it takes is a cigarette butt, an
  electrical spark, or other issues that could
  become a big fire in the night. That is why
  hotel mattresses should have excellent fire
  retardant materials inside and out to prevent
  such an incident in the first place. High-density
  materials with tiny pores or fire retardant
  internal and external linings are a must for any
  hospitality industry mattress. Mattress density,
  thickness, fabric density and type, and
  construction are important factors to consider
  when aiming for fire- proofing the bed.
• Higher innerspring count A higher innerspring
  pocket coil count or innerspring coil in
  different types is also critical for maximum
  comfort and support. The higher spring count
  helps ensure that the mattress has ample
  contouring support and also lasts longer. While
  some luxury mattresses for hotels may have
  multiple layers of innerspring pocket coil
  layers, most need to have a higher volume even if
  theres just one layer. This higher innerspring
  count helps offer maximum comfort as it contours
  and supports too many pressure points and also
  reduces motion transfer to a bare minimum. Any
  disturbance stays limited to that specific area,
  and your body feels more at ease as the pressure
  points have the best balance of comfort and
  support. The higher innerspring count also helps
  extend the life of your support layer and offers
  exclusive support to pressure points in different
  sleeping postures.
• Sleep-grade foam Some manufacturers may use
  generic foam to lower costs, but it doesnt play
  well in the long run. Sleep grade foam that is
  only purposed for the long-term function of use
  in a mattress is essential to your hotel
  mattress. Generic or non-sleep grade foam would
  be more prone to abrasions, wear and tear,
  require high maintenance and offer lower
  comfort. That is why in mattresses that use
  memory foam or rebonded foam, one may find more
  instances of generic foam in place. Sleep grade
  memory or rebonded foam is usually prepared
  in-house and has a higher density allowing it to
  retain its properties longer. Additionally, sleep
  grade or any layer in a hotel mattress has to be
  high-density, protecting the mattress structure
  and keeping it good as new for a longer time.

• often needs less chemical additives which
  prevents off-gassing and ensures a better
  sleeping environment for guests. Whereas, a
  generic foam layer would also need different
  chemical additives in order to last long, and it
  is more about purity than density in such a
  scenario.
• High-density foam High-density foam is essential
  in ensuring that your mattress stays good as new
  for the longest possible time. High-density foam
  is better at enhancing support and offering more
  contouring and plushness, especially in the
  comfort layers. In the core and support layers,
  high-density foam is critical to the overall
  support of the hotel mattress and is also
  responsible for durability. High- density foam
  is also essential in the construction features
  like a pillow-top or Euro-top padding, as
  theyre the most prone to wear, tear, and
  potential spills. Lower-density foam would
  attract and allow dust to settle, whereas
  high-density foam would be hypoallergenic
  because of smaller pores and have more benefits
  than the former variant.
• Durability When we consider durability in a
  hotel mattress, we need to understand its
  aspects. The durability of a mattress would be
  tested against environmental factors like room
  temperature, humidity, dust, and allergens.
  Mattress features like preventing sagging,
  preventing dust build-up or liquid seeping, and
  overall higher construction is also essential in
  a hotel. So, when youre looking for a luxury
  mattress for hotels, you should look at the
  different ways that a mattress protects itself
  from the guests and environment while lasting as
  long as possible. Retaining the mattresss
  newness is possible only with high- density
  materials and a high standard of quality and
  construction. To test it, manufacture
  credibility, foam density, the GSM indicator of
  different materials, and fire-retardant
  properties should be the first preference.
  Moreover, mattress durability can also be
  external, and you can ensure by going for custom
  mattresses for hotels based on guest
  demographic. For example, family size, average
  weight, use, and other factors can help you get
  better requirements for custom mattresses for
  hotels.
• High GSM Jacquard or Knitted Fabric After youve
  ensured all the internal and quality factors are
  taken care of, the fabric is one factor you
  should always look into. This is because while
  the core mattress experience may have the perfect
  balance of comfort and support, it is the fabric
  that would feel rough or smelly if it is
  low-quality. The fabric has to go through spills
  and act as a biological and environmental shield
  for the mattress. A mattress topper can protect
  your mattress and keep it new for years, but the
  fabric and stitching quality should be top-notch
  too. Higher GSM fabrics like Jacquard or knitted
  fabric feel soft, last long, and help offer an
  immediate sense of calm to ones skin. With
  regular maintenance, your high-GSM fabric can
  stay as good as new for most of the mattresss
  life. Low GSM (grams per square meter), aka
  low-density fabric, wouldnt be effective in

protecting your mattress or keep it new or even
offering comfort. It can come off as rough and
would be a wrong choice even if your mattresss
internals are in perfect condition. Customizati
