What is the difference between luxury hotel linen and traditional linen?
Luxury hotel linens are characterised by a number of features designed to offer a top-of-the-range experience and optimum comfort. As the first contact with the skin, the quality of luxury hotel linen is essential to the success of an upmarket experience.
Quality raw materials
Luxury hotel linen is generally made from high-quality materials. This may include Egyptian cotton fibres, bamboo, silk or other luxurious textiles. These materials offer an exceptionally soft and comfortable feel. At Comptoir du Bambou we have developed an exceptional fibre, Fibre B., to create top-of-the-range linens for the most demanding hotels.
Strict threshold requirements
Luxury hotel linen is often characterised by impeccable finishes. Hems, trims and details are carefully crafted for an elegant and sophisticated look. For example, at Comptoir du Bambou we use the very latest equipment to finish and embroider our linens.
Softness and comfort
To obtain Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification, tests are carried out by independent laboratories accredited by the International Association for Textile Ecology Research and Development (AITEX).
Resistance and durability
Luxury hotel linen is generally designed to be durable and hard-wearing. High-quality materials and manufacturing techniques ensure a long life, even with frequent use.
Thermoregulating linen
Luxury hotel linens are often designed to provide optimum thermal regulation to maintain a comfortable temperature in all seasons, offering pleasant warmth in winter and coolness in summer. Unlike cotton bed linen, Comptoir du Bambou bed linen made from bamboo fibre adapts to the ambient temperature, helping hotel guests to avoid sweating.
Aesthetics
Luxury hotel linen is generally designed to be durable and hard-wearing. High-quality materials and manufacturing techniques ensure a long life, even with frequent use.
These combined features create a premium sleep and relaxation experience in luxury hotels, offering superior quality linens that meet guests' high expectations.
