Guest Beds

What is a guest bed?

In theory, any bed that occupies a spare bedroom could be described as a guest bed. However, the most common guest beds are folding beds, stowaway beds, airbeds and sofa beds. Guest beds tend to be cheaper than the bed in the main rooms of your house, as they're not occupied as frequently, and therefore, less of an emphasis is placed on the bed frame compared to the home's primary beds. Nevertheless, Mattressman's vast array of guest beds is affordable without compromising the quality and durability of the bed. A good night's sleep is promised with any of our guest beds. Please note we also feature a variety of sofa beds that blur the lines between seating options and bed frames and are therefore popular among spare rooms; our sofa beds are listed under our bed section. 

What types of guest beds does Mattressman stock?

Folding guest bed

As the name suggests, folding guest beds, or foldaway guest beds, can readily fold into a smaller, compact shape when not used. A foldable bed is, therefore, the perfect guest bed due to its easy assemblement and the ability to seamslessly move out of rooms if and when necessary.

What foldaway-sized guest beds feature in the Mattressman range?

Our folding beds are available in various sizes, from a small single to a small double. A small single foldaway guest bed measures 2'6" wide (75cm) by 6'3" long (190cm), whereas a foldaway single guest bed is 3'0" wide (90cm) by 6'3" long (190cm) and a small double foldaway guest bed measures 4'0" wide (120cm) by 6'3" long (190cm).

Stowaway guest bed

A stowaway guest bed represents the ideal guest bedroom furniture for anyone whose dedicated guest room is likely to accommodate more than one guest. Stowaway guest beds are designed to slide seamlessly under a regular bed. The obvious benefit to this variation of guest beds is that when the room is vacant, the room appears minimalist despite featuring two guest beds.

What sizes are stowaway guest beds available in?

A small single stowaway guest bed measures 2'6" wide (75cm) by 6'3" long (190cm), whereas stowaway single guest beds are 3'0" wide (90cm) by 6'3" long (190cm)

Airbed

Contrary to other beds, air beds for guest rooms bear a closer resemblance to a mattress than a traditional bed frame yet are still referred to as guest beds. Suppose you're looking for a guest bed that is lightweight and easily transferable; an airbed represents the perfect new guest bed for your spare bedroom or is a fantastic sleep option for upcoming camping trips. In addition, air beds can be adjusted to the guest's preferred firmness level to adequately support their spine. With minimal maintenance and a comfortable sleeping surface, your friends and family are guaranteed a great night's sleep with our range of airbeds here at Mattressman.

What sizes are airbeds available in?

Our airbeds are available in a small single size, which measures 2'6" wide (75cm) by 6'3" long (190cm).

I'm looking for a single guest bed for my spare room, can Mattressman help with this?

Single guest beds are perhaps the most common variation of guest beds; spare rooms are usually the smallest room in the house and therefore are ideally suited for a single bed that, unlike a double or king size bed, isn't likely to occupy a lot of room. Any one of our single beds is ideal for a spare room; however, a sofa bed or trundle bed is perhaps best suited for a smaller spare room. Trundle beds are incredibly convenient for smaller rooms as they can easily change from a single bed into two single beds. Similarly, a day bed or sofa bed is also a wise investment as it blurs the lines between a seating area and somewhere to sleep, and day beds are therefore practical for social space and a sleeping area.
