In the hurly burly high stress world of business travel a good night’s sleep is of paramount importance. Hotels and hotel chains are always striving to make the slumber experience of the guest as comfortable as possible. The most important thing when it comes to sleep is what you sleep on and in this field; the hospitality industry has made giant strides.
When you enter a modern hotel room, there are a number of trends in the bed and bedding segment of the hotel industry in the international market. These include, electric beds which can be adjusted to increase comfort’ which is very popular with high-end suites in luxury properties.
Mattresses with Eurotop or PillowTop construction are another growing trend in the bedding segment. These add more comfort cushioning layers and end the hassle of flipping and turning the mattress every few months as they are one side usable. This reduces the load on the housekeeping department as well.
Finally, the pillow menu is an offering which has spread in the industry across the subcontinent as well and is just another customization hotel’s offer for a restful stay.
As far as lifespan of a hotel bed and mattress is concerned, it should easily last 8 to 10 years, though internationally due to hygiene issues, the trend is to replace mattresses every five years.
The choice of mattresses in India has also seen a massive increase in recent years, with the entry of big international brands entering even the retail market. This has led to not only better product specifications, but better construction and international quality beds and mattresses which we at King Koil, also happen to follow.
’We are the only brand in the world which is spread over 85 countries, making us the world’s most popular premium mattress. The core strength of our brand is the penetration of the hospitality market in most countries we are present in. If we talk of the Asia Pacific region, we have the most premium and extensive client list containing almost all of the top hotel chains.
’In recent past, we have supplied King Koil bedding products to hotel properties operated by Starwood, IHG, ITC Hotels, Carlson Rezidor, Golden Tulip, Accor, Taj and Best Western.
Archit Gupta is Managing Director of King Koil.
