- Pocket springs matter more at this width: At 67.5cm each for two people sharing, you sleep closer together, so independent springs that absorb a partner's movement are felt more here than in a wider bed.
- Edge support stretches the space: Triple Edge Protection springs mean firmer support near the sides, useful on a shared UK double where one of you often ends up sleeping close to the edge.
- Fits rooms where a king would dominate: We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double, which leaves most bedrooms space for bedside tables on both sides.
- A tension that works for two: Medium firm suits most back and combination sleepers, a sensible middle ground when two people with different sleep styles are choosing one mattress.
- Easy to dress and to move: Double bedding is stocked everywhere at every price, and the 135cm width is more manageable than a king through hallways and up stairs.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed and your room sits around the typical UK bedroom size, where a UK king would crowd out wardrobes and drawers. It also suits a solo sleeper who likes to spread out, or who shares with a dog or cat that claims a corner every night. And if you're furnishing a guest room for visiting couples, the UK double is the size most people expect.
Consider another size if...
You and a partner both like space and your room measures at least 2.7m x 2.9m. The UK king is 15cm wider and 10cm longer, and on a medium firm pocket spring bed that extra width is felt nightly. We'd recommend the UK king instead.

Is the Hypnos Cotton Origins 6 in a UK double big enough for two adults?
Yes, the UK double is Britain's long standing couples' size, giving 67.5cm each for two people sharing. That's cosier than a UK king, but the pocket springs help: each one moves independently, so a partner shifting position disturbs you less than it would on a connected spring unit.
What room size do I need for the Hypnos Cotton Origins 6 double?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double, with around 3m x 3m the comfortable norm. That allows a wardrobe, a chest of drawers and bedside tables on both sides without the room feeling squeezed, which is where this size makes more sense than a UK king.
Should I get the Hypnos Cotton Origins 6 in a double or a king?
It comes down to your room. The UK double is 15cm narrower and 10cm shorter than the UK king, and we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king. If your bedroom clears that comfortably and you share every night, size up. If space is tighter, the UK double is the sensible call.
Does edge support matter on a double mattress?
More than on wider sizes. With 67.5cm each for two people sharing, one of you usually sleeps near the side, and the Triple Edge Protection springs are designed to give firmer support there. That should mean less of a roll-off feeling and usable width right to the edge.
Is the UK double Hypnos Cotton Origins 6 a good guest room mattress?
It's a strong fit. Visiting couples expect a double, solo guests get room to spread out, and double bedding is cheap and easy to find. Medium firm is a safe tension for guests you can't ask in advance, though lightweight side sleepers may find it a little solid at the shoulder.
