Why hotel Mattress are So Comfortable – Mattress Type, Firmness Levels and More

Its no surprise that most people love their stay in hotels. Apart from the great ambience most hotels provide, its the mattress which is always of particular interest to most guests. People who just stay the night in a hotel expect a good sleep and care very little for the ambience. If the Mattress is not to the expectation of the guests, the chances of them returning to the hotel is near impossible. Hotel owners and staff know this. Its one of the key reasons why hotels invest a lot in their beds and mattresses.

Look Carefully and you will notice that the mattresses hotels use are also available online or in stores. Its not custom crafted for a specific hotel (except for a very few). Most Hotels purchase mattresses from established vendors. They test the product and purchase the product which fits the hospitality industry. 

Type of mattress

So what kind of mattresses do hotels use? Most hotels will go for a hybrid mattress. Some go for a latex hybrid while most go for a memory foam hybrid. Some hotels prefer a Double sided or Flippable mattress. These mattresses have a longer life and comfort which is not compromised. These mattresses are regularly flipped to prevent sagging. Most hotels flip their mattresses at least once in 3 months. Some hotels do flip their mattresses every month. For mattresses that are not flippable, they are rotated to ensure a balanced wear out!

Memory foam mattresses are generally not preferred in the hotel industry as it retains a lot of heat. Many guests have preferences and health issues and memory foam mattresses are prone to allergies to some. 

Latex mattress on the contrary are excellent replacement for Memory foam mattress but come at a higher price. Most hotels avoid latex mattress as they replace their mattress every 3-5 years. Memory foam Hybrid mattresses are often considered cost effective and comfortable. 

Comfort Level

When it comes to comfort levels, we all believe that softer is better. In the hotel industry, its the medium and Medium firm Comfort levels that is the most preferred. Considering the fact that the guests could be of any weight category and may be side sleepers, back sleepers or stomach sleepers, the best firmness level for all these sleep positions and weight classes is the Medium or medium firm. 

Soft mattresses though may be the first thing which comes to our mind when it comes to a hotel mattress, hotels refrain from using softer mattresses as many customers find it uncomfortable to roll or move in the bed. They are also not comfortable for people who are on the heavier side or for elders. All these considerations should be taken into consideration when purchasing a mattress for a hotel.

Firm mattresses on the other hand are often a clear no. They are hard and not comfortable at all. Most users don’t want to feel like they are sleeping on a slab when they paid a few $100. Comfort is often crucial and hotels don’t take risks with a firm mattress

Why is it so comfortable in the Hotel

Hotels are about mattresses and good sleep but they are also about the ambience. The rooms are set to be comfortable in every way. From the right temperature to the painting on the wall in some hotels, its all carefully crafted. What is more important is the sheets , the pillows and the arrangement of the bed itself. Its not just the mattress alone which feels comfortable. Its everything which goes over and under the mattress too. From the sheets to the duvets (have you noticed there are no duvet covers but duvets are covered with sheets?) and a combination of all these that make guests feel perfectly comfortable.

Big hotels like the Marriott take extreme care in arrangements. From the bed height to the sheets and pillows everything is taken care of. The mattresses in these hotels are replaced every 3 -4 years and meet extreme quality standards.

When it comes to sheets, hotels have choices. Most hotels prefer a combination of fabric in their sheets, usually polyester and cotton. The combination allows for cooler feel with good airflow. The feel is smooth to touch and does not retain heat making your overall sleep better.

When it comes to comfort, the Sheets used in a hotel is key. The sheets in most luxury hotels are soft to touch, dont retain heat and always clean. The sheets have a specific thread count, usually between 250 and 600. These sheets are cool, permits perfect air flow and reduces heat retention. The key here is soft. Cotton by itself is soft but does not really look luxurious. A small mix of polyester makes the sheets look a lot shinier and luxurious. 

Though some hotels (usually the exorbitantly high priced ones) do have sheets up to 1000 Thread count, most will go only up to a 600 Thread count.

Mattress protection – how do hotels protect their mattresses

Mattresses in hotels are regularly used and by a lot of different people. There is sex, drinks and food involved in bed most of the time. Chances are we all worry about the safety of these mattresses. Yet, these mattresses are pretty clean. A Research shows that the worst case scenario is a staph infection (if the sheets have not been changed). How is it mattresses in hotels are so clean in spite of all the action it sees?

Mattress protectors are almost always used in hotels. The bigger hotels with expensive beds use polyurethane Covers to protect their mattresses. These covers are breathable and yet protect from stains and spills. Mattresses are usually a huge investment for hotels and high end hotels have expensive mattresses. Spills and accidents happens from time to time with a wide range of guests. While some guests have children accidents happen. Protecting a mattress with Good quality covers ensure that the guests comfort is not compromised while the mattress is not ruined either. These covers are usually a small investment compared to replacing a mattress itself. 

Brand – What brand of mattress do hotels use

While brands are the last thing which come to consideration, they are important. Mattress companies with a good history is required for warranty , fast replacement and services from time to time. Even then, the first priority is always the quality of the mattress itself. When it comes to brands, there are a few brands which stand out. To name a few, Tempurpedic, Sealy, Serta and Saatva are the most used mattresses in high end hotels.

7 Things to do Just before bed Time

Anxiety is a problem with many people especially during bed time. It’s during bed time that we think about a lot of things from how someone treated you at 10 am in the morning and how the food tasted bad at the restaurant. Evenings are always flooding with thoughts and most often its thoughts about tasks which need to be handled tomorrow. An event at the child’s school tomorrow , a meeting which you really don’t want to be a part of at the office and the dinner which you look forward to. Thoughts. Lots and lots of thoughts. And what happens when these things come up during bed time? You lay around thinking for a long time before you eventually go to sleep.

The next morning , you wake up groggy because you just couldn’t get enough sleep. You end up complaining the entire day and repeat the same thing tonight too.

This is what life is for most people. And then there is a life which is completely different for those who go through a ritual every evening before bed time. A life which is content, peaceful, active, dedicated and often times successful. Preparing for bedtime is an important ritual. Not just for good sleep but also for a great day tomorrow. Good rest always includes a calm state of mind. You cannot go to sleep with a wired brain. You need to unwind and relax. Let go of the day. That’s the reason we put together a list of things most successful people do to start their day great.

While there is a consensus about waking up early and its effect on your general well being and overall health, there are a select few who believe that waking up at any set time is better than forcing your body to wake up at a particular time. Some people are night owls and others are early birds. So its up to you to set a time to wake up. PErsonally i think that’s a load of crap. I have been a night owl for 20 odd years. I worked through the night and went to bed at 4 or 5 am. Oftentimes I slept around 8 or 9 am, usually after breakfast. These days I wake up at 3:30. I am at work by 4:30 after a quick shower , 30 minute workout and a cup of coffee. How is my day going these days? Well “Splendid” would be a word too short. I don’t think there is a morning person or an evening person. You just get used to a routine, stick to it for a while and you become the person you want to be. You want to be a night owl? Just stay awake a few night. It may be hard the first few nights but once you get the hang of it, you simply cant sleep at night. Its the same if you want to be an early bird too.

Being an early bird is one of the best things which can happen to you. You get 3-4 hours before everyone wakes up to do things you really loved but couldn’t. We are not talking about doing your laundry or cleaning the house at 3 am. Think about the more creative things. Things you always wanted to learn. Maybe play the guitar. Or learn to code. These things are possible now during the early hours.  So … Don’t believe things about early birds and night owls. They don’t really matter

Your rituals start from just before dinner time. And this is important. You will know why

#1 Dump the device

Just before dinner time, switch off all your devices. Television, mobile phones and Everything digital. A bit of music is allowed and good but no podcasts, no news. It’s time to unwind. All screen devices have some form of blue light which hampers sleep patterns. I am not really sure about this, but i can’t sleep with the television on and if i am on my phone before bed, it takes a little bit longer to fall asleep. I am sure that the researchers got it right this time! Music is good. It calms your mind and this is beneficial. Try not to listen to rock and rap before bed time. Go for the more boring genre. Bach and beethoven are my choice. I dont understand a bit of those and that makes it easier on my jumpy brains!

#2 Light dinner

There are lots of content on what to eat and what not to eat during dinner. I would suggest that you keep off anything sweet. Ice creams, puddings and desserts will spike your blood sugar a bit and give you the energy which you dont need (unless you are preparing for some great sex later). Your dinner is supposed to be light. This helps you sleep better and faster. Don’t stuff yourself but be sure that you don’t wake up hungry in the middle of the night. Try to avoid anything too spicy (curry) or too much fat (Steak, fried food).  Let the evening meal be more natural. Rice, vegetables and meat are all ok as long as they are not filled with fat or spices. Just make sure that you don’t eat a lot.

#3 Avoid Drinks

My dad had a habit of drinking a shot before his evening meal.He had been doing it for over 40 years. Recently he was forced to quit due to medical conditions. After he quit he realized that he slept a lot better at night without the drink. The first few nights were a bit difficult though. For those who drink heavy, It’s not just bad for your health , but also bad for your sleep. Try to avoid all forms of alcohol in the evening. An occasional drink with friends and family is often acceptable but if it’s going to be habitual, you may have a problem at some point of time. As a general rule avoid all drinks 2-3 hours before bed. This includes water. Coffee should be avoided from noon Or at least 6 hours before bed time.

#4 Notes.

I hate this part but it’s the most important part of the day. Make notes of all the tasks you have finished today and schedule your next day. While most people only put big events on their calendar, it’s important that you note down even the small things you intend to complete the next day. The tasks may be trivial like doing your laundry or washing your car, but make sure that you write it down. Just making notes clears your mind of all the things which you have to do tomorrow. You will not be going to bed thinking “Oh … I have to wash the car tomorrow” or  “Have to pick up my daughter from school because the husband is working late”. You have already written it down and that’s a task done. It almost always feels like the task is half done when you have written it down. And by the way, use a paper and a pen to do the notes. You don’t want to put that on your phone on some fancy app!

#5 Set the stage

Bedroom has to be prepped before bed time. Ensure the temperature is not too hot or too cold. Set the Air conditioner or room heater to the right temperature. Make sure the sheets and pillows are in place and the dog hasn’t walked away with it. Bedrooms are required to be dark for a good sleep. Sleeping in a dark room is found to be beneficial and restful.

#6 Stretch

While most people would stretch or exercise before supper, its recommended that you only indulge in workouts 3-4 hours prior to bedtime. With heavy workouts or cardio, your endorphin levels will increase. Endorphins are more or less like pain killers. You could compare it with morphine. It feels good when the endorphins levels rise and when you feel good, you damn well don’t want to sleep. So , avoid workouts. But stretches are not prohibited. A light stretch or some Bed yoga could be a great way to relax your entire body.

#7 Read.

Read anything boring and read from a book. A real book with pages made of paper. Dont indulge in a newspaper. And make sure that the book is educative and thus boring. I once had a friend who would read quantum physics in bed. I believe it helped him sleep. You may want something less interesting , may be a self help book or something spiritual. Anything which is related to business, news or your hobby will automatically create interest and delay sleep. So avoid them. I know its hard. I usually read something spiritual to bed. But then, thats me.

Most often that not, you will end up sleepy 14-16 hours after you wake up. Set your alarm to wake up accordingly. I wake up at 3:30 and i am in bed a little before 08:00 pm. And i don’t nap in between. Its tough to keep yourself on the clock every single day but thats the price you have to pay for better health and success. OK i am not warren buffet or Dwayne the Rock yet but i am successful in my own way.

And by the way, if you cant get to sleep still, may be its time to make some changes in your lifestyle. How about checking out the post on “tips and habits for a better sleep every night”. You will see small things which may require your attention. Small things which are easy to do and make real big difference to your health and sleep.

Why Do Pillow Top Memory Foam Mattress Sink In The Middle!

There are complaints that the pillow top mattress sinks in the middle. So what are pillow-top mattresses? A pillow top mattress is nothing but a normal mattress on which additional upholstery is stitched on top. It looks like a pillow is placed on top of the mattress. This provides additional plush comfort for the users of this mattress.

Why do Pillow top mattresses sink in the middle?

Newer mattresses last for a significantly shorter time than the older mattresses which used to last for 10-20 years. Mattresses these days last for only 7-8 years. There are several reasons given for this sinking in the middle.

  • Mattresses manufactured these days are lighter and use less coil and more foam to make them softer. This foam may not be always of good quality making them sink.
  • When we lie down on the mattress, we tend to lie down in the same position or same place on the mattress, which makes an impression on the mattress. Due to these reasons, the mattresses tend to sink over time.
  • Inadequate center support for the mattress is another reason for the pillow top mattresses sinking in the middle. Since the queen and king size mattresses are pretty large, they must have a strong center support to prevent sinking.
  • The box springs that are used to support the mattress may not contain any spring. They could be just metal or wooden frames. In some cases, the springs may be broken or damaged leading to the mattresses sinking in the middle.
  • Thicker mattresses like the pillow top mattresses tend to sink over time. Sometimes, the coil springs also weaken and will not spring back to its original position causing the mattresses to sink.
  • Finally, the material that is there in the top layer may shift and create a ridge or hump on the mattress.

A few FAQs

Can we fix the sinking in the pillow top mattress that sinks in the middle?

One of the easiest ways to fix the sinking is to put a few flat pillows in places where the mattress sinks. Putting the mattress on the floor might also prevent the mattress from sinking.

What are the precautions that we can take to prevent the pillow top mattress from sinking in the middle?

Regularly flipping or rotating the mattress may help in retaining the shape of the mattress for a long time though some manufacturers claim that their mattresses do not require flipping. A good box spring or metal support under the mattress can protect the mattress and extend its life.

Are the warranty terms applicable for the pillow top mattress?

Usual warranty terms are for 10 years. It is the pillow top mattresses that are plush or super plush that have the maximum amount of sinking. The sinking in firm mattresses is relatively low. The manufacturers usually replace a mattress only if it has sunk 1 ½ to 2 inches. They will also not replace stained mattresses. So it is very important to go through the warranty terms thoroughly before buying a mattress.

Pillow top mattress is an improvement on the traditional innerspring mattress which has been in use for many years. Pillow top mattresses add comfort to the innerspring mattress by providing an additional padded layer on top of the mattress. This layer is made from foam or feathers for that extra softness and comfort. But like all products, pillow top mattresses too, have their pros and cons.

Pillow Top Mattresses – Pros

Some of the positive points of pillow top mattresses are

  • The mattresses are quite comfortable and have a soft feel. The extra padding gives more comfort to the person using the mattress. Back and side sleepers are said to benefit more from this mattress.
  • Good support is another positive point in favor of pillow top mattresses
  • A number of users were satisfied with the affordability of the mattress. This is especially true since memory foam mattresses are quite expensive and many customers were able to get the same comfort with the pillow top mattress.
  • A few customers (about 10%) also felt relief from back pain after using this mattress.
  • Many customers were satisfied with the quality of the mattress and its sturdiness

Some of the negative points of pillow top mattresses are

  • Heat is one of the major complaints about the pillow top mattress. This problem is especially critical when the top layer of the mattress is made of memory foam or other dense materials which radiate heat
  • Price-conscious customers or those with a fixed budget find the pillow top mattresses to be more expensive than innerspring mattresses.
  • If the top layer is not of good quality, the pillow top mattress develops indentations. All soft mattresses which contour to the body of the sleeper do develop indentations, but when they sink deeper than normal, then it is considered a manufacturing defect. The feather of foam on top layer may also shift and cause indents.
  • The pillow top mattresses also require deeper fitted sheets. Since the thickness of the mattress is bigger than the normal standard mattress, the fitted sheets too, need to have deeper pockets for them to fit the mattress
  • A few customers found the pillow top mattress to be too soft

What are the precautions that can be taken to keep the mattress in shape?

Do Pillowtop mattresses need flipping?

Flipping the mattress is one option of reducing the indents or sinking effect. But pillow top mattresses cannot be flipped unless they are quilted on both sides. This makes the mattress very expensive. Also, manufacturers claim that the pillow top mattresses do not need flipping.

Are all pillow top mattresses good?

Not all pillow top mattresses are made from the same material and those made from cheaper foam make the mattresses sink faster. Pillow top mattresses’ top layers have to be made from high-quality memory foam or latex for it to last longer. Double sided pillow top mattresses also last longer since the mattress can be turned over. One sided mattresses need to have quality material for it to last.

How do you choose a good pillow top mattress?

Most of the good and popular brands sell these type of mattresses. Some of them are Sealy Posturepedic, Serta Perfect Sleeper, Simmons Beautyrest Recharge, Restonic Comfort care etc. Most of the mattress makers rename the same type of mattress for different companies with very little variations. Most of the mattresses may have similar features under different brand names. So customers are recommended to go through user reviews and warranty terms to choose the right mattress to suit their needs.

A mattress is one of the most important pieces of furniture in your home. It’s where you spend about a third of your life, and it can affect your health, comfort, and well-being. But mattresses don’t last forever. Depending on the type and quality of the materials, a mattress can last anywhere from five to 15 years. However, you can extend the lifespan of your mattress by taking good care of it every day. Here are some tips on how to do that.

Use a Mattress Protector

A mattress protector is a thin layer of fabric that covers the top and sides of your mattress. It protects your mattress from spills, stains, liquids, bodily fluids, oils, skin cells, dust mites, and other allergens that can degrade the foam and cause odors, mold, and mildew. A mattress protector also makes it easier to clean your mattress, as you can simply remove and wash it regularly. There are different types of mattress protectors available, such as waterproof, fitted, or encasement ones. Choose one that fits your mattress size and height snugly and suits your needs.

Clean Your Bedding Regularly

Your bedding, such as sheets, pillowcases, blankets, and duvets, can also accumulate dirt, sweat, and bacteria that can seep into your mattress over time. To keep your bedding fresh and hygienic, you should wash it at least every two weeks or more often if you have allergies or skin irritations. Use hot water and mild detergent to kill germs and dust mites. You can also add some baking soda or vinegar to deodorize and sanitize your bedding.

Clean Your Mattress Regularly

Even with a mattress protector and clean bedding, your mattress can still benefit from regular cleaning. Every month or so, you should strip your bed and vacuum the surface and seams of your mattress to remove dust and debris. You can also sprinkle some baking soda on the mattress before vacuuming to absorb excess moisture and odors. If your mattress cover is removable and washable, you can also wash it according to the manufacturer’s instructions. For any spills or stains on your mattress, you should spot clean them immediately with a mild solution of water and detergent or vinegar. Blot the area gently with a clean cloth and let it air dry completely.

Rotate Your Mattress Regularly

Another way to extend the lifespan of your mattress is to rotate it regularly, especially in the first couple of years. This means flipping it over and switching the head and foot ends every two to three months. This will help prevent sagging, indentations, and uneven wear on your mattress by distributing the pressure evenly across the surface. However, some mattresses are designed to be used on one side only or have different firmness levels on each side. In that case, you should only rotate them without flipping them.

Aerate Your Mattress Regularly

Mattresses can also trap heat and moisture from your body and the environment, which can affect their comfort and durability. To prevent this, you should aerate your mattress regularly by exposing it to fresh air and sunlight for several hours. This will help evaporate any moisture, kill bacteria and mites, and reduce any smells in your mattress. You can do this at least every month or more often if you live in a humid climate or sweat a lot at night.

Invest in a Good Foundation

The foundation or base of your bed can also affect the lifespan of your mattress by providing support and stability. A good foundation should be sturdy, level, and compatible with your mattress type and size. It should also have enough slats or springs to prevent sagging or bowing of your mattress. You should also check your foundation regularly for any signs of damage or wear and replace it if necessary.

Avoid Jumping on Your Mattress

This may seem obvious, but jumping on your mattress can cause serious damage to its structure and materials. It can break the coils or springs, tear the fabric, compress the foam, or create holes in your mattress. This can reduce its comfort, support, and lifespan significantly. Therefore, you should avoid jumping on your mattress yourself or letting your kids or pets do so.

Don’t Eat in Bed

Eating in bed may seem cozy and convenient, but it can also be messy and risky for your mattress. Crumbs, spills, sauces, or grease can stain or soak into your mattress and attract pests like ants or cockroaches. They can also create unpleasant smells or foster bacterial growth in your mattress. Therefore, you should avoid eating in bed as much as possible or use a tray or a plate to catch any crumbs or spills.

Among the top 10 memory foam mattresses for sex, the loom and leaf mattress is cool and supportive. the construction of the Loom and leaf mattress with the Lumbar zone quilting provides extra support in the center third of the mattress.

7 Awesome Ideas To Repurpose Your Old Mattress

The usual way to treat the old mattress is to dispose it off. The next popular method is to have the delivery boys to take it in exchange for the new one. What they do with the mattress is no longer our concern! It is our concern. Yes, we get new mattress to sleep on. What about nature which will be choking to death every single day. The heavy mattress will be a bigger addition. Do we need to do that? Why don’t we use the mantra- reuse and recycle? This article is on how to repurpose your old mattresses.

I know many of you are still doubtful as to how we can recycle the old mattresses. It is not rocket science; the mattress has got stuffing, a lot at that. All you need to do is to rip it apart layer by layer and find some way to reuse them each. Here are some ideas to repurpose old mattresses.

Ideas to repurpose old mattresses

  • Cushions: Yes, the old spring mattress will have enough cotton inside to fill in at least 5 cushions. Divide the cotton evenly and see how large the cushion can be and make it with what? Guess! The mattress cover! The cover is made with durable material so you can use it without fear. Only thing to make sure is that is that you remove it carefully and to wash it in hot cycle to kill the germs. If you are not a good fan of recycled, cushions, make some large ones to use as floor cushions. I have made 2 floor cushions with an old twin mattress. Couldn’t save much of the fabric, but made one cushion cover.
  • Floor quilt: The quilt top mattress will have enough layering on the top layer. Make good use of it to use as a spare quilt mattress. The quilt layer of king mattress can be folded in half to make a thicker quilt to be used on the window seats as well.
  • Pet mattress: Use the cotton or other stuffing inside the mattress to make an easy pet mattress. Foam mattress could also be used for the same purpose. Here you may need to cut the foam according to the required size. Another way to repurpose old mattresses.
  • Pillowcase mattress: Yes, this one I liked the best. It was an improvisation of the old pillow mattress. I used several old pillow cases and sewed them side be side. Then the old mattress( memory foam) was cut in rectangle pieces that went inside the pillow cases. Each case had two layers of foam. All the openings were closed tight and voila, I had a brand new floor mattress to simply lie down. The best part was that the mattress could be folded!

Additional tricks to repurpose old mattresses / repurpose box springs

  • Box spring: The spring could be reused to make wine rack, a planter on the wall or to make an over the head lighting. All you need to do is to cut the spring area according to the size, paint, and make it look brand new.
  • Spring organizer: What better way to repurpose old mattresses than to take out the spring individually, paint, or cover it with anything that fascinates you? Fix it on a flat surface to use as pen stand, letter holder or any other kind of table organizer.
  • Sponges: Use the foam mattress as dishwashing sponges. You no longer need to purchase those sponges. Don’t like the idea, use the same sponges to clean the sink, kitchen, or bathroom. I highly recommend cutting the memory foam mattress into convenient sized pieces and store them to use later. You don’t know when you might need it.
