Cheap Travel Insurance 

One of the odd things about travelling is that unless you can afford a really luxurious holiday you often end up staying somewhere smaller and considerably less comfortable than you own home, but one of the things you shouldn't sacrifice is a comfortable bed. After all, a good night's sleep is crucial to the enjoyment of any trip. Unfortunately, your local travel agent isn't likely to be clued up on bed springs and duck down, which is where we come in. Read on to find out where you'll find the most comfortable mattress, the plumpest pillows and the softest duvet, whether you're into European travel or worldwide holidays.

Westin Hotels Heavenly Bed

Often hailed as the most comfortable bed in America, the Westin Heavenly Bed claims to offer '10 layers of comfort'. Available at Westin hotels worldwide, not just in the States, each one has a sprung, triple layered pillow-top mattress that coddles the body, a cosy down blanket, three crisp sheets, a comforter, duvet and 5 plush pillows.

The hotel chain is so sure you'll love its beds that they sell them online westin-hotelsathome. The Heavenly Bed oversized blankets and pillows have just been made available to United Airlines' first and business class passengers.

Sofitel SoBed

Every Sofitel bedroom has big, ultra cosy bed with a strong spring box and mattress, extremely light feather down duvet, a top-mattress or featherbed for extra comfort and four oversize pillows with anti-mite and anti-allergy protection.

The SoBed is available in Sofitel hotels in Europe, North and South America, Africa, the Middle East, the Caribbean and Australasia. Like the Heavenly Bed, you can buy the SoBed ensemble in the SoBoutique at www.soboutique-hotelsathome.com. So no need to squeeze that extra soft duvet into your suitcase.

Royal Plantation
Ocho Rios, Jamaica

Stay in the Plantation Suite and not only will you get a 4-poster king-size bed, but also a 5-foot body cushion that aligns the spine and reduces neck, back and joint pain. You can choose your pillow from an extensive menu, which includes a self-moulding foam number.

Huvafen Fushi
Indian Ocean

If you're of Peter Crouch-like height, you should definitely book one of the Ocean Bungalows which come with 7-foot square beds, giving you plenty of room to stretch out. The beds are dressed in luxurious Frette linen to further guarantee a good night's sleep.

Sheraton Sweet Sleeper

Available at select Sheraton hotels worldwide, the Sweet Sleeper bed has a cushy mattress, smooth cotton sheets, petal soft blankets and duvets and sumptuous feather down and hypoallergenic pillows. The mattress is designed to respond to body weight to give the correct support, so it should be neither too firm nor too soft for any guest. You can choose feather and down pillows or synthetic. Check when you book that the Sweet Sleeper bed is available in your room. And if you fall in love with it, you can buy the beds and the bedding at sheraton-hotelsathome.
