What mattress does Premier Inn use?
A Premier Inn mattress is used in every single Premier Inn hotel.
That’s around 80,000 rooms that come with a Premier Inn mattress.
But who makes the Premier Inn mattress? 🧐
No longer made by Hypnos
Premier Inn had previously partnered with Hypnos Beds for nearly two decades to provide guests with a comfortable sleep.
Hypnos is a UK family-run brand of bed manufacturers. 👨👩👧👦
They are best known for making traditional handmade pocket sprung mattresses, including the Premier Inn Hypnos mattress.
But they also have an entire range of traditional mattresses for you to consider.
However, in October 2022, Premier Inn ended its long-standing partnership with the Hypnos brand.
One door closes, another one opens . . .
Premier Inn made Silentnight its official bed supplier at the end of 2022.
The UK, Ireland, Germany, and UAE hotels have been upgraded with Premier Inn's most technologically-advanced bed yet.
Premier Inn and Silentnight spent over 2 years trialling guests on this new mattress to ensure it met expectations and was suitable for all. ⏱️
Here's what Global Brand Director Tamara Strauss had to say:
“Designed using state-of-the-art technology and the Science of Sleep, our new improved beds have been rigorously tested and refined in response to evolving insight over the course of the past two years. In research our guests loved them, and we can’t wait to begin rolling them out in our 800+ hotels in the UK, Ireland, Germany and the UAE from October. We’d like to to say a massive thank you to all the teams in trial sites across the UK who have worked with alongside us – we couldn’t do it without you." (Whitbread.co.uk)
So, what do we know about this mattress?
The Premier Inn Silentnight mattress
The Premier Inn Silentnight mattress has a much more advanced design than the previous Hypnos model.
It comprises multiple comfort layers, including Geltex, which has temperature-regulating capabilities.
But does this make it better? 👇
Is the new Premier Inn mattress better?
Premier Inn and Silentnight have been working for more than 2 years testing this new mattress for Premier Inn hotels.
This Premier Inn mattress embraces new innovative technology rather than the traditional style of the old Premier Inn Hypnos beds.
The table breaks down some of these differences:
| Hypnos Beds Premier Inn | Silentnight Premier Inn mattress | |
| Composition: |
Natural wool top layer 1000 pocket springs Hand-tufted cover |
Comfy zip-off topper Gel-infused layer 3 polyester layers for comfort and breathability Zoned 1000 pocket spring system |
| Sustainability: | Recyclable mattress made with sustainable materials |
Highly durable with a replaceable topper for better longevity 92% recyclable |
| Brand history: |
Over 100 years in bedmaking Has a Royal Warrant from the late Queen Elizabeth II |
Over 70 years in bedmaking Voted the UK's Most Trusted Bed Brand |
| Available to buy: | Used to be available for purchase until December 2022 | Yes! You can purchase this mattress on the Premier Inn Beds [1] website. |
Below, we'll go into more detail about the Premier Inn mattress composition and its many benefits.
Premier Inn mattress composition
The gel-infused mattress design is considerably different from the natural composition of the previous Hypnos Premier Inn mattress.
Gel foam absorbs excess heat to keep the body at the perfect temperature throughout the night.
Combined with the spring system for better airflow, we think this could be a perfect choice for hot sleepers.
The mattress combines multiple polyester layers for additional pressure relief on the body.
These layers include:
- Memory layer - Polyester fibre layer to contour around the body
- Eternity layer - Horizontal layers of polyester with additional moisture-wicking properties
- Microbond layer - A fabric insulator pad for additional comfort
The pocket spring system has zoned support, providing stability to the areas of the body where more support is needed.
This advanced spring system also has edge-to-edge support, so you shouldn't experience sagging when sitting on the end of the bed.
Is Silentnight a good brand?
Silentnight may not have a Royal Warrant, but they've long been known as the UK's Most Trusted Bed Brand.
They've also been making beds for over 70 years, so we think it's safe to say they have plenty of experience.
We think Silentnight is an excellent choice for Premier Inn since both companies focus on sustainability.
Many Silentnight mattresses are even made out of plastic bottles.
'Force for Good' sustainability programme
Premier Inn has joined the 'Force for Good' sustainability programme.
This programme focuses on the well-being of guests, looking after the local community and having a more positive impact on the environment.
The launch of the new Premier Inn mattress is part of this initiative.
The gel topper ensures Premier Inn doesn't have to replace their mattresses as often, as this top part can be easily removed and replaced with a simple zipper.
Additionally, 92% of the Premier Inn mattress materials are recyclable, reducing waste once it reaches the end of its lifespan.
Where can I buy a Premier Inn mattress?

We're sorry to hear that your new Premier Inn mattress hasn't lived up to your expectations, especially after having positive experiences in the past. It's frustrating when a trusted brand switches suppliers, and that the switch from Hypnos to Silentnight affected your comfort. If possible, it might be worth reaching out to the retailer or manufacturer to discuss your concerns.
