FOUR SEASONS has upgraded its beds with a custom- designed mattress that includes a “Gel Touch” foam centre to absorb heat and regulate body temperatur­e. Like Goldilocks, guests can also choose from a soft, medium or fifirm mattress topper. The new beds are available in most US hotels, while the internatio­nal roll-out should be completed over the next few years. You can also order one to take home. fourseason­s. com
