Key benefits
- Springs suited to sharing: Each pocket spring moves independently, which means your partner turning over at 3am is far less likely to wake you across this shared width.
- 67.5cm each for two: Two people sharing get 67.5cm each, enough for most couples, although restless or broad-shouldered pairs may feel a little snug.
- Fits the average UK bedroom: At 135 x 190cm it leaves room for bedside tables on both sides in most rooms, where a UK king would start to crowd the walls.
- Room guidance: We suggest allowing at least 2.6m x 2.8m of floor space, which most UK master bedrooms and many second bedrooms can manage.
- Easy to keep dressed: Standard double sheets and duvets are sold everywhere at every price point, useful if you're kitting out a whole home and the budget is already stretched.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and want pocket springs to soften your partner's movement, your bedroom sits around the 2.6m x 2.8m mark and a bigger bed would dominate it, or you're setting up a guest room that needs to handle visiting couples comfortably.
Consider another size if...
You and your partner both want more personal space and your room can take it. The Hyllestad's UK king is 15cm wider and 10cm longer; allow at least 2.7m x 2.9m and it would suit you better.

FAQ's
Is the Ikea Hyllestad double big enough for a couple?
For most couples, yes. At 135cm wide it gives two people sharing 67.5cm each, and the pocket springs respond individually, so one sleeper's movement is less noticeable to the other. If either of you sleeps starfish-style or you're both broad, the Hyllestad in a UK king adds 15cm of width and 10cm of length.
What room size do I need for the Hyllestad double?
We suggest allowing at least 2.6m x 2.8m, which gives you walking space and room for bedside tables on both sides. That's our own guidance rather than Ikea's. Most UK master bedrooms clear it comfortably, and many second bedrooms do too, even with a wardrobe and chest of drawers in place.
How much bigger is the Hyllestad UK king than the double?
The UK double is 15cm narrower and 10cm shorter than the UK king. The extra width matters most for couples, and the extra length helps anyone approaching six foot. The trade-off is floor space: we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king, against 2.6m x 2.8m for the UK double.
Is the Hyllestad double a good choice for a guest room?
It's a practical one. A UK double handles visiting couples as well as solo guests, which the UK single can't, and at 135 x 190cm it still leaves space for a wardrobe in a modest room. The memory foam comfort layer over pocket springs should suit a range of guests without complaint.
How do I know if a double bed will physically fit my room?
Measure your floor space against 135 x 190cm, then check you'd still have at least 2.6m x 2.8m overall, which is the minimum we'd suggest. Think about the route in too: turning stairs in older terraces and tight new build landings can be awkward, so check access measurements with the retailer before ordering.
