Premier Inn Pillows
In every Premier Inn room you will find a selection of firm and soft pillows (two of each) allowing guests to select their perfect pillow arrangement. The bed will be made up with two pillows and the additional two pillows are normally found in a storage bag on top of the open wardrobe/vanity area in your room. There is also normally a large firm roll cushion designed to be placed behind your pillows if you wish to sit up and watch TV etc on the bed.
Pillows are a vital component for a great night's sleep along with the mattress and Premier Inn have invested in great quality bedding to complement the Premier Inn mattress. You can now buy the full range of Premier Inn pillows and duvets, including pillow sets or combined duvet and pillow bundles.
Pillow design and manufacture has advanced greatly in recent years as new materials which can provide greater degrees of comfort and breathability and were first used in mattresses have now been adapted for use in pillows.

When it comes to sleeping positions we tend to adopt a position which is the most comfortable for us individually and then stick with it. The three common sleeping positions and their popularity are:
Quite a few people will change their sleep position throughout the night and commonly side sleepers often alternate between sleeping on their side and back.
When it comes to the ideal pillow firmness then generally side sleepers require a firm pillow and back sleepers will prefer a softer pillow.

The Ultimate Expert Guide to hotel grade pillows available to the public..
Over the years we have tried and tested hundreds of different hotel grade pillows and whilst there is no doubt that the pillows used by Premier Inn are very good, we believe that you can get a far superior pillow for similar money that outperforms every other pillow currently on the market, even those costing much more.
We recently pitched the Premier Inn pillows against Travelodge pillows and then some of the competing main pillow manufacturers targeting the UK including the Simba Hybrid pillow which is currently a Which? best buy and the Emma® pillow. You can spend some serious money on pillows nowadays with many costing upwards of £100 and there are some quite incredible claims over comfort and coolness being claimed...we discover that you can actually get a fantastic pillow for sensible money.
Pillows were tested for overall comfort including support that is maintained throughout the whole night and its ability to dissipate body heat so that you are kept comfortably cool throughout the night, quality of construction, warranty length, customer service and finally cost.
All the pillows performed well across most of our tests with the Premier Inn pillow being a reasonable budget pillow but backed up by a miserly 6 month warranty, overall one pillow came out as far superior in every single test far outperforming pillows costing up to three times as much and we genuinely believe it is quite simply the best pillow you can buy for sheer comfort, coolness and manufacturing quality. This is the Martian Dreams ultra soft hotel grade pillow which is also backed up by superb customer service, with over 3500 4.5 star ratings and a 5 year warranty.
