Sleep is one of the most coveted luxuries of sleep-deprived travelers. As a result, several discerning five-star hotels and ultra-premium cruise lines are investing in one of the most exclusive sleep amenities on the market: the Hästens mattress.
Often referred to as the “Rolls Royce of Mattresses,” the same Swedish company has meticulously crafted these mattresses for over 170 years. The beds are often recognized by the signature blue and white check fabric distinguishing them from other brands.
Hästens are truly built to stand the test of time. But they are not just products. They are almost works of art. Architectural Digest reported that rapper and singer Drake purchased a $500,000 custom Grand Vividius model for his home in Toronto.
Why are they so costly? The bespoke mattresses are handcrafted by skilled artisans using only the finest natural materials, such as horsetail hair, cotton, and wool.
However, their true allure lies in their exceptional comfort, as they conform to the body’s natural contours.
Purchasing a Hästens mattress is a major investment that can run from many thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars. But some over-the-top hotel and cruise packages offer the exclusive privilege of sleeping on a Hästens for those seeking the ultimate sleep comfort and luxury.
At The Peninsula Beverly Hills, guests can book The Peninsula Sleep Spa Suite Package, which includes a stay in the Peninsula suite and a restful night on a $76,180 Hästens 2000T mattress.
The suite is outfitted with Hästens sleep accessories, including satin sleep masks, aromatherapy lavender sachets, a sleep candle, and Hästens down boots.
Starting at $12,000 a night, the package includes a ride in a chauffeured Rolls Royce to the hotel, a bottle of Laurent Perrier Blanc de Blanc Champagne upon arrival, a private sleep spa consultation at the Flagship LA Store, a spa package, and the Naturally Peninsula five-course, plant-based menu, served en suite or at The Belvedere, the hotel dining room.
Regent Seven Seas is a boutique luxury cruise line known for its culinary excellence, stylish all-suite accommodations, personalized service, and all-inclusive pricing.

The master bath features a complete en-suite spa experience with a personal sauna, steam room, and treatment area where guests can receive unlimited complimentary spa services.

I live in Lisbon but as a food and travel writer I frequently find myself in Porto. For me, a visit to the northern Portuguese city typically involves a peek at a new place or two interspersed with return visits to the classics. In particular, I always make a point of going to cafes, bars and restaurants that specialize in the flavors, dishes and drinks of Portugal’s far north – the kind of stuff that’s hard to find in Lisbon.
