The Best Most Comfortable Mattresses for a Luxurious Night’s Sleep

Once you have the luxury bed frame that suits you – and in many cases, it might be an antique bed frame or a berth on a super yacht or the bedroom of your private jet – you need the best mattress. We’ve already reported on the best luxury beds, many of which are bespoke and handmade. Step 2 in the quest for deep sleep is selecting the right mattress.

There are a plethora of options, and our friends who have upped their expenditures on mattresses tell us that it’s life-changing. In addition, a truly luxurious mattress can become a family heirloom – they’re so durable that you can pass them down to the next generation.

Of course, technology has a role to play in this luxury space, as in so many others: there are new products that offer “smart” sleep for you, snore control for your partner, and all manner of statistics about the quality of your slumber.

1. Hästens

Hästens a Swedish bedding manufacturer founded in 1852, is the “Rolls Royce” of the category – their mattresses originally came in a distinctive blue-and-white check print, but now offer a choice of three other fabrics.  and represent the absolute height of traditional luxury. The Grand Vividus mattress is the company’s most expensive: it has 455 pounds of layered cotton, wool, mohair, and horsehair, and each mattress is hand-stitched by one person and their team of assistants.

Many Hästens owners buy multiples so that there is one in each room of their home, and some will even seek out hotels when traveling that use Hästens mattresses on their beds (you’ll find them at the Four Seasons in midtown Manhattan, and top hotels in London, Tokyo, Beijing, East Hampton, and Gstaad). These mattresses last for generations – reportedly, there are some 100-year-old ones still in active use. Hästens prices vary based on size specifications, and range.

2. ViSpring

ViSpring was established in 1901, handcrafting mattresses in England from natural-sourced Scandinavian spruce, hand-opened Moosburger horsetail, hand teased platinum-certified Shetland Isle wool, silk, cashmere, alpaca, and other high-quality materials. The company’s mattresses contain over 3,000 springs, and the upholstery is hand-woven and hand-tied. Frames are solid wood, and the springs are all hand-placed upon construction. Mattresses can be made with different spring tensions on each side (soft, medium, and firm) and are customized based on your size and weight.

There are three different collections that you can choose from – The Classic Collection, The Luxe Collection, and The Original Collection. All beds are covered by a 30-year guarantee.

3. Savoir Beds

Savoir Beds is based in London and got its start making mattresses for The Savoy hotel in 1905 (it added headboards and complete beds to its line in 2001.) Hand-crafted in London and Cardiff, each mattress, box-spring, headboard and topper is bespoke, made by one craftsman for one client, and signed by the person who made it (each craftsman must apprentice for at least a year to make a box spring; two years for mattresses and headboards.)

Materials used include long, curled Argentinian horse-tail, cashmere, and British lamb’s wool; nested pocket springs conform to the user’s shape, and star-lashed hourglass springs bear the user’s weight. It takes anywhere from 30 to 120 hours to make one mattress, and they range in price depending on

4 . S. Kluft & Company

S. Kluft & Company was founded more recently in 2004 in California. The company’s Palais Royal Vie de Luxe mattress is it top-of-the-line offering. It features ten layers of cashmere, mohair, silk, and wool from New Zealand, two layers of natural horsehair, and thousands of springs wrapped in hand-sewn cotton.

By being handcrafted with TerraPur™ latex and high-quality wool, all of  S. Kluft & Company mattresses conform to each body shape which aids in a restful and peaceful sleep.

5. Eight Smart

Eight Smart is based in New York, sells tech-enabled mattresses and mattress covers. The “intelligent” sensor cover (which goes on like a fitted sheet) measures the hours slept, the quality of your sleep, your heart rate, and temperature and delivers a daily sleep report.

The cover can also warm the bed, control two zones at different temperatures, and communicate with your Wi-Fi-enabled coffee machine and other smart home devices (so it can open the blinds, dim or brighten the lights, and adjust the room temperature). You control the bed via an app, where you can also set smart alarms. And since it connects to Amazon’s Echo, you can do all of this by voice, as well.

6. Sleep Smart by Kingsdown

Sleep Smart by Kingsdown is based in North Carolina, features IntelliMax and Body Science technology, allowing for personalized adjustable ergonomic support across three zones on each side of the mattress. The performance fabric has pressure-relieving specialty foams that have independent lumbar support with an easy to use app.

The mattresses are covered in performance fabric that regulates temperature to prevent heat buildup at night. They also have settings like Anti-Snore and Zero Gravity.

7. ReST (Responsive Surface Technology)

ReST (Responsive Surface Technology) makes smart mattresses with five zones, each corresponding to a body part (head, shoulder, lumbar, hips, and legs). An app controls each zone so that you can make granular adjustments for optimal comfort. Embedded in each mattress is patented fabric that monitors your movements. It also ends the data to a pump below the mattress, which then adjusts the mattress’s firmness in real-time.

The company says its technology is adapted from hospital beds and that its sensor is “medical grade.” You get a report-out on your sleep data each morning. Like the Eight Smart, the ReST mattress can connect with your other smart home devices.

8. The 360 Smart Bed by Sleep Number

The 360 Smart Bed is a mattress that monitors your movements, breathing and heart rate. It has self-adjusting technology, monitors you and your partner, and automatically adjusts as you change positions. The automatic snore-detection feature is pretty cool. When the bed hears snoring, it adjusts the position of the sleeper to gently lull them into a quieter and healthier sleep. The mattress also has a built-in alarm and a foot warmer.

The 360 tracks users’ sleep and reports to Sleep Number’s connected app for personal analysis. That data can integrate with a Fitbit and the whole system can be paired with a Nest thermostat.
