Key benefits
- More room each than a double: A UK king gives you 7.5cm more each than the UK double, which means a little more distance from a partner's elbows every night.
- Extra length for taller sleepers: At 200cm long, the UK king is 10cm longer than the UK double, so a partner over six foot is less likely to find their feet hanging off the end.
- Quieter when schedules differ: The sink-in memory foam reduces motion transfer, which means an early riser climbing out of a UK king is less likely to wake whoever is still asleep.
- Room to spread across the surface: Silentnight's parallel spring design aims for usable space from edge to edge, so the full 150cm width of the UK king feels like sleeping space rather than border.
- Space for pillows and shifting positions: During pregnancy, or while recovering from surgery, the UK king leaves room for support pillows without crowding a partner, and the medium pillow top keeps the surface forgiving.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and feel cramped on a double, or one of you gets up hours before the other and you want fewer broken nights. It also suits you if a partner is close to six foot and length matters to them more than width.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is smaller than our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m once the wardrobes are in. We'd recommend the UK double instead, where we suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

FAQ's
Will a UK king Portchester pillow top fit in my bedroom?
Allow at least 2.7m x 2.9m for a UK king; that's our own guidance, and 3.2m x 3.2m feels comfortable. A new build master bedroom can look generous when empty and then lose a fair bit of floor to fitted wardrobes, so measure after the furniture is in and leave space for bedside tables on both sides.
How much space do you each get on a UK king mattress?
Two people sharing a UK king get 75cm each. That's 7.5cm more each than on the UK double, which gives 67.5cm each, and 15cm less each than on the UK super king, which gives 90cm each.
Is the UK king long enough for someone over 6ft?
The UK king is 200cm long, which is 10cm longer than the UK double and the UK small double. For a partner around six foot, that extra length often matters more than the extra width. The UK super king is the same length, so going bigger only adds width.
Should we choose a UK king or a UK super king Portchester?
The UK super king is 30cm wider and gives you 90cm each, but we suggest at least 3m x 2.9m for it. If your room fits it and a dog regularly takes more than its share of the bed, the UK super king makes sense. Otherwise the UK king gives couples a real upgrade on a smaller footprint.
What bedding fits a UK king Silentnight Portchester?
You'll need UK king sheets and a 230 x 220cm king duvet. At 27cm, the Portchester is fairly deep, so look for fitted sheets with deep pockets that will tuck under the UK king's pillow top without pulling off at the corners.
