Direct to consumers since 2010

Direct from the hospitality arm of one of Europe’s largest bed-and-bath textile mills, The Classic Hotel Sheet cloth is fresh n' crisp, and light n' airy. It uses an open weave (percale) in the more airy thread count used by the majority of hotels: 250TC. We've been selling direct to consumers since 2010, so you won't find us in shops. Beware of imitations.

For many people, switching to our temperature regulating sheets is enough. But for me, it was also discovering the right layers. I call it Sleep Layers™, and this optional layering advice is emailed with every purchase. It works for hot sleepers, menopause and both hot and cold sleepers in the same bed. No miracle cures, just practical, sleep-tested advice.

How many layers?

  • The body layer: What you wear, or don’t wear to bed.
  • The sheet layer: Our breathable sheets, including a top sheet.
  • The top layer: Duvet (or not), blankets, throws.

I show you how to find your Sleep Layers™ so each person in the bed can find their Goldilocks temperature.

How natural?

Human-made fibres like polyester, bamboo, eucalyptus, rayon, Tencel® and other "plant-based" fibres can sound natural, but aren't. Worse, they trap heat. Even when blended with natural fibres, human-made fibres make us hotter. That’s why I stick with 100% cotton. When woven right, cotton works better than linen.

How light?

Whether from high thread counts, thicker yarns like linen, human-made fibres like polyester, or heat-trapping weaves like sateen, thicker fabrics trap more heat. The best bedding is light but strong, hence our cotton hotel sheets from Europe.

  • Heat regulation, not cooling - While most men sleep hot, menopausal women are hot and cold. The right sheet forms a breathable base. Then multiple, light top layers, balance temperature swings during the night.
  • No bamboo, natural fibres only - Bamboo sheets are rayon, and most hotel sheets contain polyester. Both trap heat. Some European hotels use 100% cotton sheets, woven for airflow. That's what we offer.
  • Multiple, light top layers - With a little modification, many people already have the right top layers to get the most from our temperature regulating sheets. I offer options, choose what's best for you.
  • Hot and cold sleepers in the same bed - When one partner runs hot and the other cold, a duvet is the enemy because it's one temperature. Proper layering allows you each to find your Goldilocks sleep temperature.
  • Settle restless partners that keep you awake - My partner still sleeps when hot but he's restless, which keeps me awake. Our sheets, along with the right layers, helped settled him, interrupting my sleep less.
  • Straight talk, no miracle cures - Heat and sleep is complex. Sheets won’t fix everything but the wrong bedding will ruin your night. We fix your sheets and can help fix your bedding layers that break sleep. That's one less thing keeping you awake.

Your after-sale email will include my super easy Sleep Layers™ guide. Honestly, you'll kick yourself at how easy it is to make your bed breathe. Everyone's different, and every climate is different, so Sleep Layers™ is about helping you find your layers. And it all begins with the right sheet, backed by our 60-night bedding guarantee.

Bamboo bedding isn't natural, it's rayon. The US Federal Trade Commission has been suing US retailers since 2013. But for hot sleepers, it's much hotter than balanced cotton sheets like ours. Natural fibres win every time so settle for nothing less. Your sleep deserves better.

High thread count sheets are thicker, but thickness for any reason traps heat. Worse, the majority of high thread count sheets use a closed weave called sateen, which traps even more heat. Adding insult to injury, thread count has nothing to do with quality! But if you struggle with heat, our sleep testing puts high thread count sheets on-par with poly/cotton in terms of heat. Yes, they're silky but they're heat traps. Avoid.

We’ve spent years testing linen sheets because they’re natural, and use an open weave. The trouble is thickness, which holds on to heat. We only use linen in winter now. The feel is also subjective, some felt like a hessian sack, while nicer ones felt like sleeping in clothes. They never had the fresh n' crisp feel we prefer. If linen works for you, it's a great choice. But for us, it was second best at regulating temperature. Your millage may vary.

What we sleep on instead

OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 Class II is a higher certification. It means our textiles are safe for direct, prolonged skin contact because every component is independently tested against 1,000+ harmful substances. All our textiles are woven, sewn and made in Portugal.
