Hotel Beds

Choosing the right hotel-style bed

When searching for a new bed, many of our customers tell us that they sleep better when away from home and ask what’s so special about luxury accommodation’s furniture so they can bring that sense of relaxation back with them. Well, the answer is in the build. Hotel beds are handcrafted to not only look beautiful but to be highly durable too.

Here are a few things to consider when replicating hotel beds in your home.

Materials and fabrics

The fabric on your bed should be soft and comfortable, look beautiful, but also be hard-wearing. When you purchase a bed from OPA Living, you have nine material choices:

Luxe velvet – Soft, sumptuous and undeniably luxurious, luxe velvet makes the bed the focal point of any room. Available in our broadest selection of colours, this cosy fabric remains a firm customer favourite.

Bouclé – A bouclé headboard is an effortless way to add contemporary hotel style to your bedroom. With its distinctive nubby texture created from tightly looped yarns, it’s a modern fabric that’ll make any space bang-on trend.

Linen – Linen hotel beds offer a refined, understated look that’s ideal for minimalist interiors. Loved for its natural texture and timeless elegance, it’s a stylish choice for contemporary and pared-back homes alike.

Kobi – Combining the luxurious softness of velvet with the subtle woven finish of linen, kobi offers the best of both worlds. It’s a durable and practical option for every home.

Palermo – Much like luxe velvet, palermo chenille delivers exceptional softness with a luxurious feel. Its light-catching two-tone finish adds extra depth and character to your bed.

Mythica – Designed with busy modern homes in mind, mythica features a durable slub weave that’s wonderfully soft to the touch. It’s a practical fabric that doesn’t compromise on comfort.

Olympia – With its subtle texture and clean, elegant finish, olympia shares the understated appeal of linen. Its timeless look makes it a popular choice for sophisticated interiors.

Luxe cord – For an indulgent finish, luxe cord offers all the plush softness of luxe velvet, enhanced by subtle ridged detailing that adds texture and visual interest.

Fernando – Featuring a delicate woven texture, fernando is a versatile fabric that complements almost any interior style. Exceptionally durable, it’s an excellent choice for active family homes.

Colours

Once you've chosen your favourite fabric, it's time to browse our wide selection of colours. Whether you're looking for a neutral hotel bed with mass appeal or a bold hotel-style bed frame you’d only find at a boutique, you’ll find plenty of options to suit your taste here at OPA Living.

Please note that colour availability differs between fabrics. Neutral shades are offered across every fabric range, while our richer, more vibrant colours are exclusive to our premium fabric collections. 

Other elements to consider

Size – While we’d all like to have the airy space of a hotel room, unfortunately, that’s not always the case. Our hotel-style beds come in a variety of sizes, so make sure to check the dimensions and take out your tape measure before ordering. This will ensure a smooth delivery and avoid unfortunate returns.

If you can’t find the ideal size for your home, we can build you a bespoke bed. Please submit your details for a personalised consultation and quote for your bespoke furniture.

Shape – At OPA Living, our hotel beds come in a variety of headboard shapes and sizes, from classic rectangles to more modern waves. If you’d like a boutique look and have the room, we’d recommend an oversized headboard which also runs behind your bedside tables.

Maintenance – One of the reasons why a hotel bed feels and looks so relaxing is thanks to its high-quality bedding, mattresses, and regular maintenance. If you need assistance keeping your bed frame clean, discover our care kit.

Bed type – If you know what material, colour, shape, and size you need, you’re almost there! Beyond budget, the only other consideration is what type of bed you’d like. While you may like the look of a hotel, a bed with storage helps when you’re at home. Consider an ottoman style for hiding away belongings and creating a clean aesthetic.
