Hästens Beds: The Chic and Stylish Secret To A Great Night’s Sleep
With over 170 years’ experience of making ultra-luxurious beds, Swedish maison Hästens Beds is the go-to brand for some of the world’s leading hotels and retreats
When it comes to curating bedroom interiors, it helps to apply the same approach as you might with your wardrobe – smaller, trend-led accessories can be rotated seasonally, while important, staple pieces should be chosen with longevity, exquisite quality, and investment savvy in mind. The keystone? A stylish, chic, and comfortable bed.
Swedish brand Hästens Beds elevated bed making into a fine art more than 170 years ago. Each bed made by the family-owned maison is imbued with over six generations of its master craftsmen’s expertise, and their artisanry constantly evolves to guarantee a perfect night’s sleep. The brand boasts three stores in the Middle East – Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Doha – but the signature blue check pattern that is now synonymous with luxury can be found in over 50 countries around the world.
Sustainably and ethically sourced, Hästens uses only the very finest natural materials for its designs, including genuine horsehair, fluffy cotton, pure wool, durable flax, and slow-grown pine from Sweden’s northern forests. If its soft components are an art form, then its springs are pure science: made exclusively in Sweden, each bed contains two or more spring systems to simultaneously ensure surface softness and deep support. The brand’s most luxurious design, the ‘Grand Vividus’ requires 600 hours of construction, and unsurprisingly garners a considerable waiting list.
The brand’s prestigious partners hint at its illustrious standing – the Corinthia, one of London’s most luxurious hotels, houses Hästens beds in 35 of its most glamorous suites, while the exclusive Scottish retreat Eilean Shona, owned by Vanessa Branson, features a Hästens bed overlooking its serene loch and castle ruins. What’s more, the Hästens mantra is one to live by: if you sleep well, you have better awake time. We simply can’t argue with that.
