What Mattress Brands Are Luxury Hotels Using?

We've all looked back on those five-star vacations where the beaches, the food, and the scenic views are unforgettable, but sometimes what we truly want to relive is the feeling of crawling into that cozy hotel bed after a long day of exploring. Even if you've never experienced a high-end hotel, everyone can admit that nothing looks comfier than the plush hotel beds we've all seen in the movies. Seriously — who didn't envy Macaulay Culkin when he was lounging at the Plaza with a tray of room service treats by his bedside in "Home Alone 2?" 

If you've been wondering how to choose the best mattress for your bedroom, considering the brands that luxury hotels use might be a good place to start. Many of these chic hotels are using mattresses from the brands Serta, Sealy, or Stearns & Foster, which are often custom-made designs specifically for its hotel brand.

A deluxe hotel mattress may seem a bit over the top for those who prefer to stick to a tight budget, but investing in a high-quality mattress is always reasonable. While many of the top-tier hotel chains collaborate with mattress companies to create its own brand-specific design, most hotels allow you to purchase these creations for your own home. Some of these custom mattresses may be a bit steep for certain budgets, but knowing which brands the most high-end hotels rely on can help you make a smarter decision when finding a mattress that delivers a truly luxurious experience every night.

One of the mistakes everyone makes when buying mattresses is going for the cheapest options — your nightly rest will always be worth investing in, so don't be afraid to consider the mattress that your favorite hotel uses. Serta is one of the go-to brands in the hotel industry, providing mattresses for leaders like Marriott International and Omni Hotels. They've even created a custom "Hilton Mattress" made for Hilton properties, but you can bring one home for an average price point. Among these properties, Serta also created an exclusive mattress for the well-known Waldorf Astoria, one of Hilton's most prestigious hotels in New York City.

As you move up the scale in luxury lodging, you'll find that spots like W Hotels or IHG Hotels & Resorts are sometimes partnered with the Sealy brand.  One notable partner is Kimpton, which has a custom-made mattress for its brand produced by Sealy, and the design is even available for purchase for guests who want to recreate the experience in their own home. 

However, if you're curious what some of the most stunning hotels around the world are often using for their mattresses, many opt for custom-made options made by Stearns & Foster. Both the Ritz-Carlton and Fairmont Hotels and Resorts provide luxe mattresses from the brand for its locations, giving guests a 5-star sleep experience that aligns with its lavish locations and amenities. If you're ever truly curious as to which model is used at your favorite stay, give them a call — they may be able to give you a model number or a store where you can purchase.
