What if you could sleep like you do at a luxury hotel—every single night?
There’s a reason Fairmont bedding has become synonymous with high-end sleep. From breathable cotton sateen sheets to supportive gel-infused mattresses and plush feather-down pillows, every design detail is crafted to create deep, uninterrupted rest.
But here’s the truth most retailers won’t tell you: you don’t have to book a five-star suite to enjoy five-star sleep.
At Northern Feather Canada, we’ve been designing premium bedding products for over 100 years—right here in Canada. Our linens, duvets, pillows, and protectors are made with the same obsessive attention to comfort and detail as those found in luxury hotels—without the hotel markup.
In this guide, we’ll break down what makes Fairmont bedding so famous—and how Northern Feather offers a homegrown, hotel-quality alternative built for Canadian sleepers.

1. Why Hotel Bedding Feels So Good (and What It’s Made Of)
Luxury hotels like Fairmont don’t use just any sheets. They use 100% cotton sateen sheets—like our Hotel Collection—because they’re breathable, soft, and incredibly smooth against the skin. This fabric helps regulate your temperature year-round for uninterrupted sleep.
Crafted with 300-thread count cotton and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, our Hotel Collection Damask Stripe bed linens offer that signature crisp-yet-comfortable feel—made in Canada for Canadian homes.

2. Down, Feather, or Gel? The Secret Behind Fairmont Pillows
Fairmont hotels famously use feather-and-down pillows—plump, moldable, and airy. Our Pillows Collection includes feather, down, and hypoallergenic alternatives, offering the same plush, cloud-like feel in customizable firmness levels.
Whether you’re a back sleeper, stomach sleeper, or someone who tosses and turns, we’ve engineered options for all sleep styles.
Can pillows be washed? Yes—ours come with pillow protectors designed to extend lifespan and hygiene.

3. The Mattress Topper Trick That Transforms Any Bed
Fairmont’s beds feature luxury pillowtop mattresses—designed for support, bounce, and temperature regulation.
But if you’re not ready to replace your entire mattress, try one of our premium mattress toppers. Each topper adds an extra layer of softness and support using breathable, down-alternative fill that mimics hotel comfort.
Pro tip: Pair with our mattress protectors for longevity and cleanliness.
