The Right Sheets Fabric For You
Discover the fabric that matches your sleep style—from crisp percale to silky sateen—each crafted to deliver the comfort and quality of a Marriott stay.
LINEN FABRIC
Choosing the Right Fabric for Your Bed Linens
Every detail of the sleep experience is intentional—starting with the fabric you choose. More than just texture, it’s about how sheets breathe, drape, and perform night after night. True luxury comes from quality materials and craftsmanship, not just thread count. A well-woven, lower-thread-count sheet in high-grade cotton or Tencel often outperforms heavier weaves made with inferior fibers. For sensitive skin, Tencel offers a naturally hypoallergenic, cool-to-the-touch option.
Climate and sleep style also play a role. Hot sleepers may prefer the breathability of percale or moisture-wicking Tencel, while sateen delivers a cozy, silky feel that’s perfect for cooler nights. Cotton blends are a practical choice for soft, wrinkle-resistant bedding that’s easy to care for. The right fabric can turn everyday rest into a deeply restorative experience.
Comparing Four Types of Sheets Fabric
Choosing the right sheets begins with understanding the character of each fabric. At Marriott, we select linens not only for how they feel, but for how they perform --whether under the crisp fold of a turndown service or in the comfort of your own home. Each fabric has a distinct sensibility, offering something different for every type of sleeper and space.
Sateen
Sateen sheets offer a smooth, luminous finish with a bit more warmth and drape. Ideal for cooler climates or anyone who loves a soft, polished bed with a luxe touch.
