If the best sleep of your life came during a stay in a Marriott hotel, this guide will help you recreate that feeling at home. We’ve taken a look at the mattress you’ll find in Marriott hotels in the US, EU and UK — including what they're made from, how they feel and where you can buy them.

Hotel mattresses are known as some of the best mattresses around, but they’re often manufactured exclusively for the brand. To know what mattress the Marriott uses, we went directly to the source.

While you can buy a Marriott hotel mattress for your home, it's quite pricey and the benefits aren't on the level of popular consumer sleep brands. That's why we're also sharing our favorite budget-friendly alternatives that come with a generous trial and returns policy.

Marriott hotels in the US use an all-foam mattress manufactured by Jamison Bedding. Standing 9” tall, the soy-based foam used in these beds is resilient and high density, offering a blend of support and cushioning.

It's a medium to firm mattress without the divisive sinking feel of some other foams, meaning you can move freely and not feel trapped. We expect the balance of pressure relief and cushioning should be just right for side sleepers.

It's finished with a quilted damask surface, which gives the mattress a luxurious look and also helps it sleep cooler.

The Marriott also has an innerspring mattress with a bouncier, more traditional feel, and at 13” it’s significantly taller, too. The reinforced edges make this mattress a great choice for anyone who likes to use every inch of the bed. While Marriott doesn’t specify what the cover of the innerspring bed is made from, we expect it's similar to the all-foam version.

Available exclusively via Marriott hotels, a queen Marriott foam mattress is $1,995, as is the innerspring Marriott mattress in the same size. Both beds come with a 10-year manufacturer's warranty. Note that mattresses can't be returned or exchanged.

There are occasional mattress sales at the Marriott shop, but you're most likely to get a deal around the major holidays.

The Marriott Bed Foam Mattress: from $1,395 @ MarriottThe mattress you'll find at Marriott hotels across the US, this soy-based high density foam bed has been designed to appeal to every guest, meaning it suits a range of sleep types. Sales are rare, so you'll typically find it sold at full MSRP. A queen costs $1,995 on its own, or you can add a box spring for a combined cost of $2,485.

The mattresses used by the Marriott in the EU and Britain differ significantly from their US counterparts.

Spend a night on a Marriott EU mattress and you'll be snuggling up on a hybrid of foams and springs. This is slightly unusual for a hotel bed – the Westin hotel mattress has a similar build wherever in the world you sleep – but the EU bed should offer a similar level of comfort to the US bed.

Combining a base layer of springs with a top layer of foam (or high density polyester in the British model), the hybrid Marriott mattress is designed to suit a range of sleep styles and body types. The EU model measures 25cm tall (roughly 9.8”) while the British model is slightly taller, at 30cm (around 11.8”) — similar to the Sheraton hotel mattress.

Both models are finished with a Jacquard woven ticking polycotton, which provides an attractive finish to these luxury mattresses.

Exclusively available from the Marriott hotel shop, both the Marriott EU and Marriott British mattresses are priced at £1435,50 for a double. However, they only come with a 5-year guarantee, which is surprisingly short for a premium bed.

The Marriott Bed British Hotels: from £1,165.50 at MarriottCombining springs, foam, and a jacquard woven ticking polycotton cover, the Marriott Bed for British Hotels is a hybrid with an adaptable feel that should feel comfortable for a range of sleep styles. You can buy it as is (a double has an MSRP of £1,885.50), or you can bundle it with a base and bedding.

If you want to recreate the Marriott experience on a tighter budget and benefit from a proper trial period, we've rounded up three choices that come pretty close to replicating a night in your favorite hotel bed.

Nectar Classic Memory Foam Mattress (queen): $649 at NectarThe Nectar Classic is similar to the all-foam Marriott Bed in that it offers gentle contouring with support. (It's also three inches taller.) During our Nectar Classic Memory Foam Mattress review, we found it supportive for most types of sleepers. Although the queen size has an MSRP of $1,664, an evergreen Nectar sale keeps the price at $649. It also comes with a one-year trial and a lifetime warranty.

DreamCloud Hybrid Mattress (queen): $699 at DreamCloudAs a hybrid mattress, the DreamCloud mattress is closer in feel to the EU and UK Marriott mattresses (you can also buy the DreamCloud mattress in the UK). In our DreamCloud mattress review, we found this bed has an excellent build quality and is great for those with back pain. Thanks to an evergreen DreamCloud mattress sale, you can often pick up a queen size for just $665 (normally $1,664). As always, it comes with a 365-night trial and a forever warranty.

Cocoon by Sealy Chill Mattress (queen): $699 at Sealy ChillThe Cocoon by Sealy Chill is an all-foam mattress with surprisingly excellent cooling properties. During our Cocoon by Sealy Chill mattress review, we found that, like the Marriott bed, it lacks the divisive quicksand feel of other foam beds. And if you love how a stay in a Marriott grants free rein over the air con, you'll appreciate how this bed uses cooling Phase Change material to keep you the right temperature overnight. With an evergreen Sealy sale, a queen Cocoon Chill costs just $699 (MSRP $1,079). It comes with a 10-year warranty, a 100-night sleep trial, and free bedding and pillows.

If you want the full Marriott sleep experience, you can purchase your entire bed set-up from the Marriott hotel shop.

The Marriott US mattresses (both foam and innerspring) are also sold with box springs, and you can bundle in your bedding if you want to enjoy every night between Marriott sheets. The box spring is only sold with the mattress, but you can purchase bedding separately.

The EU and British Marriott mattresses are also available with bed bases; some sizes automatically include two bases. Add sheets to your bed and base purchase, or buy sleep accessories separately at the Marriott UK shop.

✅ You want to recreate a luxury hotel experience: The Marriott hotel mattress is a premium bed and if you want to turn your bedroom into a luxury suite, this is the mattress to get.

✅ You need a bed to accommodate various sleep needs: Marriott hotel mattresses are designed to provide excellent sleep for a wide range of guests, meaning they work for a variety of sleep styles. This is good for combi sleepers and couples with different preferences.

✅ Price is no object: Make no mistake — the Marriott mattress is a splurge. On the other hand, you might end up saving money on travel because you'd rather sleep at home.

There are some downsides to the Marriott hotel mattresses, primarily, the extras. In the US, you’ll get a 10-year warranty, while shoppers in the UK and EU get just a 5-year warranty. We would expect a longer warranty from such an expensive bed, although both the Four Seasons hotel mattress and the Ritz-Carlton mattress are more expensive with disappointing warranties.

In addition, neither Marriott bed comes with a mattress trial and you can't return or exchange it. (Perhaps Marriott expects you to book a night in a hotel if you want to try the bed.)

Delivery isn't free, either. In the US, there's a flat rate of $325.00 for white-glove in-home delivery in most areas. Delivery to remote areas costs extra.
