Why you can trust IndyBest to find the best mattress deals

The IndyBest team of shopping experts have been covering sales events for many years. As a sleep expert, I track the price of mattresses year-round and know how to spot a good deal from a bad one, and I will only ever recommend a discount on a tried and tested brand. I’ve been researching the best mattress brands and testing a whole host of different options in my guide to the best, so I’m personally recommending the ones that I think are worth your money.

Best mattress deals April 2025

You can save more than £100 on this king-size mattress from Simba. The mattress also comes IndyBest-approved, as it took the top spot in my review, where I praised the hybrid luxe for providing “decent support”, being “breathable” and “naturally temperature-regulating”.

Nectar’s hybrid mattress was chosen as the best option for medium firmness in my best mattress guide, and there’s a whopping saving to be snapped up. It’s made up of eight layers of foam, micro-springs, memory foam and a supportive base, which I found made my pressure points feel supported and spine-aligned. I also awarded it extra points for its ability to reduce motion transfer – something anyone with a wriggly sleeping partner will appreciate.

If you want hotel comfort in your own bedroom, the latest Premier Inn mattress is currently reduced by £75. I put the original version to the test to see if it could give me a comfortable night’s sleep as a side sleeper. My favourite feature of the mattress is its zoned system, which helps to evenly distribute weight across it and avoids putting too much pressure on your hips and shoulders.

If you’re looking for a supportive mattress, this could be the one for you. In tester Eleanor’s review of Otty’s hybrid mattress, she said it “undoubtedly falls on the firmer end” of the scale, describing it as a “great all-rounder that most people will find comfortable”.

When reviewing this model, I found that the Dusk hybrid “feels as luxurious as it looks”. It is “a great choice for those with back pain” owing to its firm feel and the “stellar edge-to-edge support”.

Hypnos supplies mattresses to hotels, including Soho House and The Corinthia, and it even supplies the royal family, so it’s fair to say the luxury brand doesn’t come cheap. But now, you can save nearly 25 per cent on this IndyBest-approved model. “The depth (31cm) means there are lots of layers of comfort here, including a pocket-spring system, which aids weight distribution to provide edge-to-edge support and helps to encourage better spinal alignment,” I found when reviewing it. The soft pillow top is “supportive and feels like a gentle hug.”

Our tester and parenting expert, Zoe, loved this mattress so much that she picked it as the number one best kids’ mattress. Zoe raved about the quality of this model, appreciating that it’s clearly tailored to little sleepers. “Its soft cushioned top layer and airflow comfort layer make it incredibly comfortable for little sleepers. Meanwhile, the pocket springs provide ample support for growing bodies,” she said in her review.
