Reliable Mattress Toppers: Keep a Feather Bed or Fiber Bed on Hand

When you’ve been in business for more than 70 years, people come to you with questions.

For example, when would you suggest purchasing mattress toppers for our beds?

And the answer is that a mattress topper is something hotels, vacation rentals, and bed & breakfast owners should consider if they’ve just bought a new mattress, or are trying to salvage an older one.

Mattresses and Mattress Toppers

A mattress can be a very personal choice. Some people prefer a softer mattress, while others prefer a firmer one.

That’s why hospitality mattresses are made differently than the products you’ll find in your local mattress store. They need to last longer and appeal to a wide range of people.

We suggest having a featherbed or fiberbed on hand for guests who prefer a softer mattress. Having these comfort layers around also gives you a way to extend the life of an older mattress until it’s time to buy a new one. Also, a topper is considered a luxurious addition to the bed.

There are as many choices for mattress toppers as there are for mattresses. You can find mattress toppers filled with feathers, memory foam, cluster fibers, microfiber polyester, and many other fillings. Many of them are hypoallergenic and dust mite-resistant.

What’s the Difference Between Mattress Toppers and Mattress Pads?

Mattress toppers differ from mattress pads in that they add a layer of 1 to 5 inches, depending on your choice.

Benefits include:

• Mattress toppers can soften beds that are too firm.
• They offer a cost-effective way to enhance the comfort of your sleeping surface.
• Just like mattresses, they come in various sizes.
• Mattress toppers are easy to move around.
• Guests will sleep better and feel more energized with a mattress topper.

Some toppers come with their own cover, which can be removed and washed. If not using a cover, you can put a deep-fitted bed sheet over the topper and mattress.

We always suggest that our customers in the hospitality industry test their mattresses by sleeping on them at least one night. You will then know if the mattress is sagging, worn, or noisy.
