By Alex Martin

The average person sleeps for 8 hours a day; that’s a third of your life spent in between the sheets.

Whether you are looking for the ultimate designer bedroom, the latest tech innovation or simply looking to add a regal touch, 2018 is the year of taking sleep seriously and to start investing in some luxury bedding.

Sleep specialist Dr Camelia Musleh spoke to Samantha Coles in this year’s Hotel, Resorts and Spas about the importance of getting enough sleep, but crucially, emphasized the importance of quality, restorative sleep.  We round up the most exclusive and comfortable bedding, mattresses, sheets, pillows and duvets to ensure you do not miss the latest and greatest innovations in sleep technology and fashionable luxury design.

The Complete Guide To Buying Luxury Bedding

What to look for when buying your new bedding:

  • Keep in mind the thread count, as the higher the thread count the comfier the sheets
  • The best luxury bedding will feature a blend of high-end materials such as cashmere, wool, linen and silk
  • The best pillows will give pressure relief to your neck, giving you a better sleep
  • See if you can try a mattress before you buy it, as without trying it you won’t know if it’s too hard or soft
  • When looking at bed throws and linen make sure to look at the rear of the sheet to see if the stitching has been done by hand
