3 Reasons Flippable Mattresses Are Ideal for the Hotel Industry

Blog

The success of a hospitality establishment, such as a hotel, hinges on various things, chief among them being comfort. While there are various ways to enhance comfort, mattresses are a good place to start. Notably, hospitality mattresses come in all shapes, sizes, and designs. However, flippable or double-sided mattresses are an excellent choice for various reasons. This article highlights the reasons flippable mattresses are suited for the hotel industry.

Last Longer

Imagine replacing aged mattresses in your hotel every few years due to wear and tear. The phenomenon is common with one-sided mattresses because guests only sleep on one side, exposing a mattress to dirt and sweat, accelerating wear. Therefore, if your hotel receives a large number of guests throughout the year, you might need to replace one-sided mattresses every so often, significantly affecting your bottom line.

However, a flippable mattress lasts longer because you can rotate and flip it regularly to utilize both sides, allowing the padding to recover. A flippable mattress also prevents the accumulation of dirt and sweat on one side, extending the service life significantly. Most importantly, it eliminates the need for replacements every few years.

Caters to a Wider Clientele

Hotel guests have varying comfort levels regarding mattress firmness. For instance, guests with back issues prefer mattresses with firm padding because they offer adequate support. Others prefer mattresses with medium or soft padding for enhanced comfort. Indeed, a guest can request a room with a mattress of their choice. However, the request is difficult to address with single-sided mattresses, which is why flippable mattresses are an excellent choice for hotels. The reason is that double-sided mattresses have different levels of firmness on both sides.

For instance, one side of a flippable mattress could be firm and the other medium or soft so that guests can choose the most comfortable side based on their needs. Consequently, guests can book any room knowing they will find a mattress that meets their comfort needs.

Enhanced Weight Distribution 

A common characteristic of one-sided mattresses is thicker padding on the upper side. However, it causes unequal weight distribution, making a mattress difficult to handle when rotating or tasking it out for cleaning or airing. Therefore, room service staff must find an easier and less frustrating way of lifting the mattress whenever necessary. On the other hand, double-sided mattresses boast better weight distribution since padding is installed on both sides.

Redecorating my house at last

While I was still married my house was a mish mash of both of our tastes in furnishing. Now that we have seperated I am finally getting a chance to decorate my house the way I wanted it. I have a couch that is truly comfortable and looks good, rather than the smelly old couch that used to live in our lounge room. It's so much more relaxing to walk into my house and enjoy looking around. I'm reading furniture catelogues like I used to read novels and researching like crazy. Join me on my redecorating adventure by reading along!
