The Heavenly Bed... but which one is best - a Critique of Hotel Bedss

Like many travelers I spend a lot of time in hotels and on the road.

The chain hotels have been touting their special beds.

The best bed is a matter of preference. As you cannot have a standard one size fits everyone nor is it economic to offer flexibility. The hotels have tried to tackle the problem a number of ways. Some offer different pillows – all have spent a long time looking at the type of bed that will give the best sleep.
Westin started the ball rolling, touting its Heavenly Bed in 1999, emphasizing that the mattress was created just for the chain. Just for comparison - I HATE cushy squashy beds. I also prefer not to sleep with more than 1 pillow's height. So here are my assessment of some of the top beds. And yours? Let me know.

Marriott - multiple stays – The Marriott Bed - a great bed. Good Passing Grade (P)
Hyatt – Grand Bed – Good Passing Grade (P)
Intercontinental – Not yet. – Individual brands in IHG are not really working on a better bed. Ugh – the last few I have stayed at have not been good
Hilton – The Hilton Serenity Bed – I hate this bed. It is just awful Way to squishy for my taste. (P)
Fairmont – great bed – Good Passing Grade (P only for the linens).
Westin – the best! – Heavenly Bed – While not quite as good as when it started – the few times I have stayed at a Westin – the sleep has been good. This is my pick (P)
Sheraton – The same as the Westin.
Radisson – The Sleep Number Bed – a great bed once you get the hang of it. A Good Passing Grade (P) – although you just missed the special $500 off deal.
Of course many of the beds in Las Vegas are pretty good.
I really like some of the discount brands. Hilton Garden Inn, Hyatt Place are two that come to mind.

(P) means you can buy it!!!!

So hotels - PLEASE do a good job in this. All travelers from Road Warriors to once a year visit aunt Mabel visitors need a good nights sleep.
