The UK’s Sleep Council has declared March ‘National Bed Month’ and in its honour, TripAdvisor, the world’s largest travel website, reveals the UK hotels where you’re likely to have the best night’s sleep. These properties received the highest praise from travellers in the ‘sleep quality’ category on TripAdvisor in the last year*.
According to TripAdvisor travellers, The Edenfield Guest House in Blackpool and the Brucefield Boutique B&B in Arbroath offer the best sleep quality of any UK properties, both boasting a perfect sleep quality rating of five out of five from travellers.
“A good night’s sleep can make all the difference to your wellbeing, as well as your holiday and overall impression of a hotel. The guest feedback on TripAdvisor speaks for itself - these properties have all been tried and tested, and pass the all-important sleep test with flying colours,” commented Emma Shaw, TripAdvisor spokesperson.
