Days Inn Hotel mattress, Sealy Posturepedic

Pam writes:

Do you know what mattresses are used at days inn hotels? 

We stayed a week at one and slept very good...came home and have been uncomfortable with current mattress.

Hi Pam,

Days Inn uses a Sealy Posturepedic...just like this one. Sold at retail, we have it as the Sealy Posturepedic Everley.

You'll find it as "plush" in most of the hotels that use it.

Stearns & Foster Heidi in luxury firm with a 2" soft latex topper‏

Rob writes:

Hi Pete,
I've been reading extensively on your blog. I'm looking for a recommendation 

for a queen mattress. My wife and I are back/side sleepers. (We have a NovaFoam

 (yes, I know...) that is a nightmare. Only good thing is I can still take it back to 

Costco!) She is 5'3", 150lbs. I'm 6'2", 225lbs. We both sleep well on the Hilton 

Serenity bed, but in reading your blog, I understand that purchase would be an 

error based on price and longevity. SO, can you make a recommendation on a long

 lasting mattress and Latex topper combination (I'm assuming here...) that will

 approach the feel of a Hilton Serenity bed? I like the idea of the double sided 

mattress, but right now, I need to get the "feel" of the Serenity right, or my wife will 

shoot me.

If you recommend a mattress and latex topper, I'd appreciate a recommendation 

on the type and thickness of latex. Also, since the Hilton family has NOT claimed 

me as a long-lost heir, I need to avoid the $2000+ mattress category. :-) 
Thanks in advance,
Rob

Hi Rob,
An excellent choice that provides good support, comfort and longevity...in your 

price range, is the Stearns & Foster Heidi luxury firm with a 2" soft Talalay latex

 topper. That combo can't be beat and has stood the test of time. You're at $1259

 for the queen set and $350 for the topper. Here are the links.

Sealy Posturepedic Encore 720 Plush mattress‏

Nancy writes:

Do you have any idea which Sealy Posturepedic mattress would

 be the closest match to the Encore 720 Plush model? I know it

 is older, maybe 2005 and was at the Lowes Hotel in Annapolis.

 Thanks, Nancy

 Hi Nancy,

Closest would be the E level plush Posturedic. We have it as Grass Leaf, shown here:

Sealy sensaTIonal mattress at the Treasure Island in Las Vegas‏

John Writes:

Good Morning,
I was just reading through your website after a google search for the Sealy sensaTIonal mattress at the Treasure Island in Las Vegas.  I saw that Pete recommended the Sealy Posturepedic Grass Leaf Plush.  I am 6'3" 235 and my wife is 5'3" 135.  Every mattress we have purchased works fine for the first few months then either sagging or "tacoing" in the middle ruins it.  we have purchase new box springs with each mattress and are on our 4th set in 8 years.  We've tried the memory foam but it was too firm for her and even tried the Select Comfort mattress but I hated it. However after 2 stays at the Treasure Island I can't remember a more comfortable bed then the sensaTIonal.  I'm just wondering if the Grass Leaf is still the recommendation.
Thanks For Your Time, John 

Hi John,

The Grass Leaf was an answer to a question about what is comparable.

It was not then, nor is now, a recommendation from me.

I think it's a mediocre quality mattress.

*************************************

From the info I gave could you make a recommendation ?  I like the support of a firm mattress and have read that pillowtops wear out a lot faster then plush models.  I am interested in ordering something soon.  Mattress store in the area seem to all be staffed with kids with no knowledge and just looking for a sale. 

Sure John.

But first I need to explain to you what the problem is...why you've bought 4 sets in 8 years. It's the padding...too much memory foam...too many pillowtops.

My wife and I are larger people, so I'm sending up links to what we have.

Links (plural). A mattress and a latex topper. Latex is the only way to get a really comfortable mattress that will remain comfortable over the long term. Latex is also extremely resilient, adding years of life to any mattress.

The mattress link is for one of the best available.

Sheraton Hotel, Sealy Posturepedic Sweet Sleeper mattress‏

Pete writes:

Hello: We just spent a night at the Sheraton Airport Hotel in Miami, FL. The bed was very comfortable and although I didn't look at the mattress, the website says it's a "Sweet Sleeper". I found a response to a customer email from your company written in 11/2010 with the following information: 

"At retail, you would ask for the Sealy Posturepedic, Preferred Series, Level 5, in plush. If you look for it on our website, the model name is Willow Run. Model names are different at every store, which is why you ask for it as I first described. You should be struck by the difference in price from that quoted you by Sherton.
The best value in the Sealy Posturepedic line is the Reserve Series level 9...our Concierge Club. It has the same coil system as the Sweet Sleeper, but with a much higher coil count, better edge support and better padding. That in a plush would feel similar to the one at the hotel, but would last longer and perform better....a more appropriate choice for every night use by adults."
I'm Assuming the models have changesd since then as I don't see anything like that on your website. What mattress would we likely have slept on at the Sheraton? I'd also appreciate any other advice you might be able to offer.

Thanks for your time,
Pete 

Hi Pete,

Models have changed. They change every couple of years...and are likely to change very soon, as we are coming up on 2 years since the last change. In today's Posturepedic line, you'd be looking at the E Level Posturepedic. Model names are different at every store, so shopping by level becomes important...as an E Level here is the same as an E Level anywhere else. We have it as the Grass Leaf Plush, shown here:

Hotel mattresses, Stearns & Foster or Sealy Posturepedic‏

Sandra writes:

Do you carry hotel mattresses like the Stearns & Foster Boulevard 

Plush or the Sealy Posturepedic Monogram 800 plush, etc.?

Hi Sandra,

Stearns & Foster doesn't make a mattress like the Boulevard 

model anymore. Nothing in their line is even similar. 

You'll have more success in replicating the Monogram model. 

The "E" level plush model will be close.

The model names vary from store to store. We have it as 

Grass Leaf, shown here.

Latex Buying Information

Tracking down a hotel mattress‏

Michael writes:

My wife and I stayed at the Holiday Inn in Va on the way back from New England last week. 
We have never slept as well as we did elsewhere. What kind of mattresses do they use and how can we purchase one?
Michael
 

Hi Michael,
I'm gonna get to the answer in a minute...or, you can skip right to the next paragraph.
Hotels can use any brand, change brands...and, as each line changes specs from time to time, have somewhat different beds of the same brand over the years. Only when the hotel is new, will the same mattress be in every room.
In doing a google search about what mattress is used at Holiday Inns...Sealy, Serta, Simmons and Tempurpedic All came up as being used.
Hotels sell mattress too. Whatever happens to be the featured mattress, is what will be delivered...even though the mattress you slept on may not be that mattress. And, even if it is the same, a new one will feel differently from one that has been broken in. (a problem you face trying broken in floor sample at retail stores too)
The best part is, you'll pay 2 to 3 times more for it than at retail....and for a mattress that is likely to be different from the one you wanted to begin with.
And you thought this would be as easy. 

The only way to know what mattress you slept on, is to call the hotel, and ask them to ask housekeeping to look at the label on the mattress in the room you had, and get back to you with the information. If the mattress is less than a year or so old, you stand a half decent chance of finding a match at retail.
And while you may not be able to find the same exact mattress, you are likely to find something close.

 

Thanks, Pete

Sealy Posturepedic Encore CSS Plush Mattress‏

Mollie writes:

Hello –

I recently stayed at the Bay Lake Towers in Walt Disney World Orlando –

I loved their mattress – It was a Sealy Posturepedic Encore CSS Plush – That is the only information on the tag –

Which one of your mattresses would be closest to that one since I have learned those are for sale for hotels only –

Thank you –

Mollie 

Hi Mollie,

They are very expensive, when purchased through the hotel. At retail, the price is quite a bit more reasonable.

Hotels use good quality, basic mattresses...nothing expensive, as they are replaced every few years.

Here's a link to that mattress in today's Sealy Posturepedic line at retail. The Grass Leaf plush

Sheraton Sweet Sleeper hotel mattress‏

Janet writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I found your blog and have found it very educational on such a confusing subject.  We wish to purchase a king size set. We have been sleeping on a Sheraton Sealy Sweet Sleeper mattress for 2 months in a condo we rented.  We both sleep great on it. I found your blog while looking to cross reference it. However, found it is no longer made. Did notice the edges are kind of less supportive than the middle - must be an old bed as the condo was rented by the hotel next door. If we could find something comparable to this model for under 900, we would be very happy. From the prices I saw, it looked like we would need to spend over 1000.  

We like the mattress at the new Sleep Inn, too. Will have to find the tag.

One issue I's like to ask about is bed height. The bed in this condo is 28" to the top of the mattress - too high for me to comfortably sit on. Can one purchase a shorter metal frame for the mattress set to make it at a height I could sit on easily? Thanks in advance for your time and assistance, Janet

Hi Janet,

Close to what you are sleeping on, is the Sealy Posturepedic Grass Leaf plush mattress, shown here:

http://www.themattressexpert.com/Sealy-Posturepedic-Grass-Leaf-Plush-/

When ordering on-line, there's a message box when you check out. Leave note there, that you want a lo-profile bed frame, which will reduce the over-all height by 4".


Thanks, Pete

Simmons W hotel mattress‏

SKG writes:

Do you know of a similar mattress to the Simmons W hotel mattress that is available in stores? We love it but have concerns about ordering online and sight unseen.
Thanks for your help! Skg
 
 
Hi SKG,
The W mattress is so named, to have you believe you are buying the same mattress used at the Westin Hotel, known as the Heavenly bed. What makes the actual hotel mattress so heavenly, is the topper use on the mattress...which does not come with the W mattress sold in stores.
It's a marketing gimick used to get a higher price.
The W mattress is a Classic Beautyrest. There are 3 levels in the Classic Series...all the same, but with more padding each level up.
Ordering on line is guesswork, only if you don't know what's inside the mattress.
We have included the specifications for all of our mattresses. All you need to do is match them with the specs of what you saw. 
Ask your salesperson to show them to you. All of the manufacturers provide spec sheets for every mattress that is floored.
Here is a link to the regular Beautyrest line. The Adamsville, Gordonston and Lincolnton are the levels in the Classic Series. As you will see, you have a choice of comfort at each level.
Your best choice is the plush/firm...using a heavier gauge wire for better support and longevity than the plush models, but using the same comfortable padding on top.
