10 Easy Pieces: Hotel Sheets

March 4, 2015

Why do hotel sheets feel so much better than the sheets at home?

Well, to begin with, hotel sheets are freshly washed, crisply ironed, and perfectly tucked–all by someone who is not you. These fine points go a long way to making hotel bedding a thing of desire. And beyond that, they’re all white–according to some, the most restful color to sleep on–and often made to last with tighter weaves and higher-quality fibers than what’s standard at home.

Thanks to the recent trend of the shoppable hotel room, some of our favorite places to stay have begun offering their own custom sheets for sale. Others don’t bother with custom sheets but are happy to share the name of the linen brand they swear by. Here, we’ve rounded up 10 standouts.

N.B. Except where noted, prices are for a queen sheet set (one flat and one fitted sheet and two standard pillowcases).

Hotels’ Own Sheets for Sale

Above: A global name, Anichini is often mistaken for a European line. But the brand has been manufacturing luxe bedding in rural Vermont for nearly 30 years. Anichini is standard fare at premier hotels, including New York’s Gramercy Park Hotel and the presidential suite at the Waldorf Astoria. For home, we like the Palladio Hotel Sheets, a 200-thread-count, Italian percale cotton with a narrow corded border that comes in four colors, including terracotta (shown here). Prices start at $315 for a queen sheet set. (Note: The sheets in terracotta are currently on sale for 30 percent off.)
