Please tell me the best mattress you have ever slept on! We need a new one, our current is way too firm and very uncomfortable!
We have never gotten over this one bed we slept in years ago in a hotel that felt like sleeping on a fluffy cloud! So please tell me your recommendations ! Thanks 🤩

I have an Emma as budget doesn't stretch far. But totally agree don't buy from their website, get it anywhere else as the mattress is the best nights sleep I've ever had at home compared to a hotel, but their customer service is appalling.

I was always comfortable with my mattress, but got a memory foam topper due to back and shoulder pain. I love it so much! A lot cheaper than buying a whole new mattress and not too squishy like a whole mattress of memory foam would be.

I third John Ryan By Design - a wonderful mattress that I am grateful for every day. They have a similar construction to the Vipsring ones.

I love a premier inn mattress - bought one in 2019 from the premier inn site (a Hypnos mattress) and actually returned it! It was nothing like what I'd slept on in the hotels, it was awful.

This one - I have it and it's the best money I've ever spent

Unforgettablefire · 18/02/2025 21:12

To pp saying premier inn have you bought them and slept on them?
I read they were made different and lower quality than the hotel ones I'd love to hear it's bs.

Op im in your boat only I prefer firm mattresses that don't give and I've yet to find one.

Before getting an Emma I'd recommend checking the recent Trust Pilot reviews (terrible customer service if you have problems, I can attest to this).

I agree actually.
Just before we went for our Ikea one i was on the brink of buying an emma and then delved into the real customer reviews before pressing the button.

They put me right off!

Ours is Ikea.
Was just under £300 for a king size and is lovely! I can't remember the name but it's a medium to firm i think.

Go in and have a roll about on them all no one cares or pesters😃

I bought one from Amazon. Wasn’t expecting much as it was cheap and I only wanted it for a few months, before replacing the whole bed. But, it’s the most comfortable thing I’ve ever slept on, absolute bargain. So warm and I’ve never had such a good nights sleep. I’ve got RA and find I’m not as stiff in the morning now. amzn.eu/d/5850Qca

Honestly? The saggy, ancient feather mattress in my aunt's spare room. Probably because it was in that fabulous four poster bed and I felt like the fucking queen sleeping there. Sorry that I'm no help

I like mine it's an Otty Hybrid.

Relyon Marquess from their Heritage range. Not cheap and weighs a ton. It’s like sleeping on a cloud.

Ours recently suffered in a water leak but dried out quickly and is as good as new.

Downside is, that apart from one top end hotel stay in London, we always moan about the mattress when we are away.

Branleuse · 18/02/2025 21:02

We got a new mattress a few months ago.
I absolutely love it.
Its wool filled which means it regulates my temperature really well. Its so comfortable

We bought Emma and it's been wonderful. But it's on a medium-firm side. Not sure how comfortable you'd find it if you are after "fluffy cloud" experience but you can return for a full refund if it doesn't work.

Premier Inn mattresses are fabulous and you can actually buy them . Just google premier inn mattress. Very reasonable prices too.

Made by Hypnos until 2023.
Hypnos mattresses are unreal. I adore mine.

Vispring. It cost me €5000 in 2005 so 20 years old now but soooo comfortable.
