A flat sheet isn’t just decorative — it adds comfort, hygiene and helps protect duvet covers in guest beds. For many hotel, B&B and guest house owners, providing high-quality flat sheets signals attention to detail. For help choosing the right fabric, thread count, and sizing for your flat bed sheets, see our “How to Make a Guest Bed” blog post, where we explore flat sheets as part of creating a polished, comfortable room.
What is a flat sheet, and how is it used in guest bedding?
A flat sheet, also called a “top sheet”, lies on top of the fitted sheet or between duvet and blanket. It adds a layer of hygiene and comfort and protects duvet covers. Many high-end hotels use flat sheets for both practical and comfort reasons.
What size flat sheet should I choose for different bed sizes?
Choose sizes that match your mattress size (Single, Double, King, Super King, etc.), and allow extra drop over the sides. In hotel/guest settings, flat sheets with generous sizing help make bed-making easier and ensure clean edges.
What fabrics and thread counts are best for flat sheets?
Natural cotton, cotton-rich blends, percale, and sateen are common. Higher thread count gives smoother feel, but durability and ease of washing are more important in hospitality. Easy-care cotton that can withstand frequent washing at high temperatures is usually best.
How do I care for flat sheets to keep them looking new use after uses?
Wash according to label (often 60°C), avoid mixing with rough fabrics (e.g. towels), use gentle spin cycles where possible, tumble dry or line dry correctly, avoid optical brighteners that may damage fabric over time.
Are flat sheets still popular/necessary in hotel bedding?
Although some modern setups skip flat sheets, many hospitality properties still use them for their benefits: hygiene, layering, and guest perception. They can help protect duvets and reduce laundry on duvet covers.
Do you offer flat sheets in bulk or trade quantities?
Yes. We provide flat sheets in trade/bulk options for hotels, B&Bs, guest houses and holiday lets. Buying in bulk gives cost savings and ensures consistency in your bedding.
