Pillow Talk: Finding the Perfect Pillow for Your Guests

10 February 2023

In the accommodation industry, every detail contributes to the guest experience—including the pillows you provide. Whether you’re running a boutique hotel, a bustling holiday park, or a luxury lodge, the quality of sleep you offer can be the difference between a glowing review and a disappointing stay.

Meet the DreamGreen ‘Dream’ 900!

A well-chosen pillow should cater to a broad range of sleepers, offering both comfort and durability. Through extensive research, we set out to create the perfect pillow—one that strikes the right balance of medium loft and soft support, maintains its shape while allowing for flexibility, and stands tall for a polished bed presentation.

The ‘Dream’ 900 has been optimally filled 900g of hypoallergenic DreamGreen microfibre offering a medium loft and soft comfort, designed to suit that majority of sleepers. While being able to be wrangled into any sleeping position, the resilient microfibre keeps it shape over time. It will continue to stand tall like a soldier giving a 5 star look. Designed for commercial hospitality with 100% premium jarpa cotton cover with double hem stitching and piping. You won’t be having busted pillows anytime soon.

Having at least two pillows per guest allows them to mix and match firmness levels to their liking. Some guests prefer the plush feel of two pillows, while others need firm support to avoid waking up with aches and pains.

Looking for more Luxury….

For upscale and 5-star-rated properties looking to elevate their sleep experience, premium pillows can make all the difference.

Our DreamGreen Bliss, King, and Super King Lodge pillows are designed for ultimate indulgence, with a high loft that allows guests to sink into pure comfort. Lodge pillows, crafted to span the width of spacious mattresses, create an air of opulence that enhances the overall aesthetic of your rooms. If you’re aiming for that refined, five-star feel, these luxurious options will leave a lasting impression on your guests.

Or a more Budget Conscious Option…

Not every accommodation requires high-loft luxury—sometimes, practicality and affordability take priority.

The DreamGreen 600g is a versatile mid-range option, making it the ideal choice for properties catering to budget-conscious travelers. It strikes the perfect balance between comfort and affordability, ensuring guests enjoy a restful sleep without compromising on quality.

For those seeking a no-frills solution, look no further than the DreamGreen Backpacker Select. Frequently chosen by backpacker hostels, youth camps, and short-term seasonal worker lodgings, this a budget-friendly pillow. While its non-woven polyester cover means it may not have the extended lifespan of higher-end options, it remains a practical and economical choice for high-turnover accommodations.

Some Other Considerations:

Cater to Everyone

In the competitive hospitality industry, a great night’s sleep can set your property apart. A pillow menu offers guests a personalized sleep experience, catering to different preferences—from soft and plush to firm and supportive. By providing options like down-filled, hypoallergenic, or memory foam pillows, you ensure every guest finds their perfect match. View our full range of pillows here.

Sustainability : A Choice That Pays Off

Today’s travelers are increasingly conscious of sustainability. By offering eco-friendly bedding options, you not only meet guest expectations but also contribute to a healthier planet. The DreamGreen range, for instance, repurposes up to 28 recycled plastic bottles per pillow, transforming them into a premium hypoallergenic microfibre fill. Wrapped in breathable japara cotton, these pillows offer durability, comfort, and peace of mind for environmentally conscious guests.

Choosing the Right Filling

Your pillow fill can make all the difference. The two main categories are:

  • Down Fill: Luxurious and soft, but can trap heat and trigger allergies in sensitive guests.
  • Synthetic Fill (e.g. such as microfibre used in the DreamGreen range): Hypoallergenic, supportive, and more durable—ideal for frequent use in hospitality settings.

Memory foam, while popular for home use, isn’t always the best choice for hotels, motels, or holiday parks. Since it molds to the sleeper’s shape, it may not suit a wide range of guests, making a more versatile pillow fill the better choice.

Allergy Considerations: Comfort for Every Guest

Allergy-friendly bedding is a crucial consideration for any accommodation provider. While down pillows have a reputation for luxury, they can be problematic for guests with allergies. A high-quality synthetic alternative provides the same plush feel without the allergy risks. Adding a pillow protector—similar to a mattress protector—can further enhance hygiene and extend the lifespan of your pillows.

Final Thoughts

Investing in the right pillows is a small yet impactful way to elevate your guest experience. Whether you’re providing budget-friendly stays or five-star luxury, the right choice in bedding ensures happy, well-rested guests—and glowing reviews.
