Layer Details
eOlus fibre
An innovative fibre that provides a foam-like comfort layer without retaining heat or moisture. In practice, that means the cushioned feel of foam with far better breathability.
British wool
Naturally breathable and temperature regulating, which helps keep you cooler through the night. Wool is a traditional filling for good reason.
Dual density layers
Two densities of filling working together to provide support. This adds structure beneath the softer comfort layers above.
Polywool
A blend combining the breathability of wool with the durability of polyester. It should hold its shape better over time than wool alone.
Sustainable recycled fibres
Recycled fibres that offer resilience and support, which means a sturdier feel with a lighter environmental footprint.
Pocket springs
Hypnos' ReActive 6-turn pocket springs promote spinal alignment and relieve pressure. Each spring moves independently, so the mattress responds to your shape rather than pushing back uniformly.

- Proper space for two: At 75cm each for two people sharing, the UK king gives you room to change position without elbowing your partner awake.
- Less partner disturbance: Hypnos' ReActive 6-turn pocket springs move independently, so an early alarm on one side transfers less across a 150cm-wide bed.
- Length for taller sleepers: The UK king is 10cm longer than the UK double at 200cm, a real difference if one of you is approaching six foot.
- Two halves, easier delivery: The zip and link build splits the UK king into two sections, which makes narrow landings and awkward staircases far less of a problem.
- Firm support across the full width: The medium firm, arguably extra firm, feel stays consistent edge to edge, so neither sleeper rolls towards the middle of the shared surface.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and want more personal space than a double allows, one of you gets up hours before the other and you're tired of feeling every movement, or one partner is tall enough that a 190cm mattress leaves feet at the edge. It also suits couples facing a tricky staircase, since the two zip-together halves are much easier to carry up than one solid king.
Consider another size if...
Your room comfortably clears 3m x 2.9m and you want the most personal space this mattress offers. We'd recommend the UK super king instead: it's 30cm wider than the UK king and the same length.

What size is the Hypnos Bespoke Amber in a UK king?
The UK king measures 150 x 200cm, or 5ft x 6ft 6in, with a depth of 23cm. For two people sharing, that works out at 75cm each. It's 15cm wider than the UK double and 10cm longer too, so taller sleepers gain usable length as well as elbow room.
Is the Hypnos Bespoke Amber UK king good for couples on different schedules?
Yes, with a caveat. The 1,000 ReActive pocket springs compress independently, so one person sitting up or climbing out at 5am sends less movement across the 150cm width than an open-coil bed would. Lightweight side sleepers may still find the firm feel too unyielding, so consider your build as well as your schedule.
What room size do I need for a UK king bed?
We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for a UK king, with around 3.2m x 3.2m feeling comfortable once wardrobes and bedside tables are in. New build master bedrooms often shrink faster than expected once furniture arrives, so measure the clear floor space rather than the room, and check you can still open every door fully.
Does the zip and link design make the UK king easier to move in?
It does. The mattress arrives as two separate halves that zip together into one 150cm-wide surface, so each piece is roughly half the width to carry. That matters with a UK king, which is an awkward object up a narrow staircase or round a tight landing in one piece. Once zipped, it sleeps as a single mattress.
Should I buy the Hypnos Bespoke Amber in a UK king or a UK super king?
The UK king is 30cm narrower than the UK super king, and the two are the same length, so the choice is purely about width and floor space. If your room clears the 3m x 2.9m we suggest for the UK super king, the extra width is a genuine comfort gain for couples. Otherwise the UK king is the sensible pick.
