Hotel Bed

Have you ever had a hotel stay where you woke up to a new and beautiful location, but were in too much pain to appreciate it?  If you have, you are not alone.  A good hotel bed can be crucial to enjoying your stay when you are away from home.  It sets the tone for the rest of you trip and can actually make the difference between you being more physically able to go out and do activities or even perform better in your work capacity. 

The challenge when it comes to finding a good hotel bed is realizing that you cannot judge a book by its cover.  Many hotels can lure you into thinking that you are going to get the most restful sleep you have had in ages by showing you a glamerous brochure with a beautifully appointed room.  Unfortunately, when you actually get into the hotel bed, you are not so impressed, and when you wake up in the morning you can bearly straighten up.  You may wonder how you can avoid this potentially distasterous pitfuall during your trip.  Well, here are some tips to consider next time you choose a hotel and you want a truly good night's rest:

1. Look through the brochure and see if the hotel lists what type of beds they use.  Keep in mind that a hotel that prides itself on delivering a good sleep for their customers will have gone out of their way to chose a bed that they can really stand behind and even promote.

2. Call the hotel and speak with the front desk about the type of beds used and the level of comfort.  While a front desk clerk may want to say just the right things to impress a customer, you may get interesting, honest answers and even some additional information from the people who deal with satisfied and sometimes not so satisfied customers.

3. Check online at sites that review hotels and see what customers have to say.  Of course, you need to really be able to discern who really was a customer of that hotel and who may be just trying to promote or demote that hotel for purposes of their own agenda.

4. Look for the Beds.org certification and seal of excellence.  We pride ourselves on being the first purely objective mattress assessment organization and will always show you the results of our findings so you can make the decision yourself if this is the best hotel bed to sleep on.

Just remember that the choice falls with you as the consumer...so don't accept a poor night's sleep and hotels will always work hard to make sure you rest easier!
