Mattress Protector or Topper?

There are so many different items between hotel beds and home beds. Also, in different countries, we have different names for even the same bedding set, such as flat sheet vs bedsheet, duvet vs quilt etc. But normally many of us mistake mattress toppers and mattress protectors as being the same thing.  This is why we decided to make it clear on bedding products and answer a question we hear surprisingly often – “Yes, we know there are lot of accessories for a bed, why we use a mattress protector or mattress topper anyway?"

What is A Mattress Topper?

A mattress topper is essentially an extension of your mattress. Usually measuring about 5-10 centimeters thick and providing you with extra comfort and cozy softness, they’re a great addition to a bed and will help improve a guest’s night’s sleep. If you have limited burget to get a good or new mattress, try to get a mattress topper to upgrade the comfortness of your current mattress. 

Anyway, perhaps one of their greatest advantages where small hotel, B&B and guest house owners are concerned is how quick and easy they are to clean.

We know how hectic day to day hospitality ownership can be, but extra bedding products like mattress toppers simply require you to vacuum their surface in a well-ventilated area. What’s more, using a Mattress Protector on top will help prolong the life of your luxurious topper for even longer.
