I can attest that Saatva’s best-selling latex pillow has the same magical qualities as its Classic Mattress: soft and supportive. Plus, the breathable latex means you’ll always be on the cool side of the pillow.
Meanwhile, people interested in the full Four Seasons experience can invest in the company’s hypoallergenic pillows that combine down and feathers, or opt for the delightfully plump down alternative pillows. Brooklinen’s down alternative pillow is also a noteworthy competitor for a much lower price.
Bed linens
Along with hotel pillows, you’ll want to invest in some top-quality linens. And where Brooklinen really shines is in the bed sheets category. “Our Classic Percale Sheets are inspired by that perfectly crisp, luxurious feel we’ve come to know and love from hotel beds,” says Nicolas Lukac, Brooklinen’s director of emerging channels, describing these 100% cotton, 270 thread count sheets. Other best-selling products from the brand include the Washed Linen sheets, which exude vibes of a relaxing summer on the coast, and the Luxury Sateen sheets, which have a smoother finish.
It’s hard to beat the quality to price ratio of Brooklinen, but if you have a higher budget, Pahel recommends Frette products for its “superior comfort, durability, and luxury.” She’s also a fan of Nollapelli for its cooling powers, while many hot sleepers swear by the moisture-wicking, silk-like AiryWeight cooling eucalyptus bedding by Sijo.
Accessories and decor
Getting the basics right is definitely a great start, but according to Vivianne Garcia-Tunon, vice president of wellbeing for Auberge Resorts Collection, “a five-star experience can be achieved by prioritizing style, comfort, and innovation.” And that means picking the right bedroom accessories.
Whether you need to block out the noise of a snoring partner, a busy street, or even your busy mind, use a sound machine to lull you into dreamland. Consider the Hatch Restore, which serves as a sunrise-imitating alarm, as well as a sound machine with the option for guided meditations and bedtime stories. For a more affordable alternative, albeit with less features, check out this top-selling sunrise alarm clock on Amazon.
