We can imagine the overwhelming choices there are in beds and the pressure of picking the right one. As a trusted supplier of accommodation in New Zealand, we recommend Sealy Commercial Beds for reliable orthopedic support, suited for a range of guests.

Once you've chosen the right bed for your space and budget, something that may be overlooked is the value of a mattress protector! People may think mattresses will last a lifetime but spills, stains and even bodily fluids will devalue the mattress over time.  Also, keep in mind your guests' judgment of how you handle cleanliness as health is uppermost in a traveller's mind these days. Choose from microfibre, quilted, cotton, and waterproof mattress protectors.

Tip: Also remember that a bed bug protector could be a lifesaver in the future, you have no idea where your guests have come from, and bed bugs are not choosey who they hitch a ride with, so you're be safe than sorry.

Commercial bed sheets in either polycotton or 100% cotton are the best durable, long-lasting option for you to use for shared accommodation plus they cover a range of bed sizes not available on the domestic market including for Split Super King beds. 

The pillow choice for the bedrooms may arguably be the most important according to guests. Our Good Linen Co collection has every type of pillow for your guest's needs, from various levels of firmness to a number of different sizes. We also stock the hard-to-find King/Lodge pillows which are best matched for Super King and Cali King beds. They're a popular choice with their large width compared to normal pillows and go great in front of big square Euro pillows. Euros are recommended to help protect the walls on beds that have no bedhead.

Pillow protectors are a no-brainer but the tricky part is choosing the right one. Commercial Supplies have waterproof, polycotton, quilted, and non-quilted options.

Tip: To increase housekeeping efficiency, opt for the zipped pillow protector options where the zipper goes all the way across the short side opening.

To finish off the look, you can go for box-ended blankets which are the easiest and quickest way to make your beds with a top sheet to finish off the top-of-bed, or duvets which are easy to switch up by just buying covers. Don't forget to add some flavour to the bedroom decor with throws, blankets, cushions, rugs, lights, luggage racks, alarm clocks, wall art, etc.

We know there is more to the B&B than just the bedroom and Commercial Supplies has also got you covered for all those including the bathroom, outdoors, lounge, laundry, and kitchen.

Tip: Add welcoming robes and slippers, guests will appreciate these small gestures which will go a long way.

It's an exciting yet stressful journey setting up accommodation and there's nothing better than knowing that you can get almost everything you need from just one supplier. Here at Commercial Supplies, we are more than happy to have a conversation to help you pick and choose the right products for your venture.
