“Who slept on this pillow?”

This is the question asked by a well-known expert in the hotel industry, Brian Guernier, who in the last two years I have had the opportunity to inspect and dissect the pillows used in over 50 hotels, mainly in the luxury and high-end segments.

From this investigation it emerged that the average age of use of these cushions was seven years!

Since the average hotel stay in the United States is 1.4 days, approximately 1,825 people have slept on that pillow before it is replaced. To make matters worse, hotel pillows are rarely, if ever, washed.

The degree of bacterial growth present in a pillow is directly related to the number of months or years the pillow has been used.

You deserve peace of mind! Travel safer with SleepSafe®.

Scientists found that “up to a third of the weight of a hotel pillow consists of bacteria, dead skin, fungi, dust mites and their feces.” (National Sleep Foundation, May 2015 and American Academy of Sleep Medicine, January 2017)

Additionally, a recent study published on Sleepbetter.org looked at college dorm room pillows and noted that:

• an average pillow contained more than 350,000 potentially live bacterial colonies, some of which are known to be highly toxic and even fatal."
• the average pillow has been found to contain more than 100,000 colonies of potentially viable yeasts and molds and the capacity to host up to sixteen species of fungi.
• pillows are the ideal breeding ground for mites, bed bugs and undesirable and potentially unhealthy microorganisms.
