Arguably, the best part of every luxury hotel stay is the bedding. Between the fluffed pillows, a sumptuous and heavy comforter, and clean, silky-smooth sheets, it's a miracle we ever leave our hotel rooms at all when we stay in a really nice resort. The bedding is just so comfy, it's tempting to want to pack it all up and keep it for ourselves. Of course, don't actually do that.  Instead, recreate the rapturous feeling of waking up in a 5-star hotel from home with a set of equally luxurious, resort-worthy bed sheets.

So, what makes bed sheets hotel quality? Linens will differ between hotel brands, but most luxury bed sheets are made of cotton. Not only are these naturally super soft, they're less likely to trigger allergic reactions or irritations for those with sensitive skin, making them a solid option for guests across the board.

Most dreamy hotel sheets also have a higher thread count, ranging between 200-500. That's because sheets with a higher thread count last longer, age better, are softer, and are less likely to irritate skin, Joshua Zeichner, MD, a board-certified dermatologist based in New York City, previously told Well+Good.

That said, do yourself a favor and don't stuff the hotel sheets into your suitcase. Book yourself a staycation with luxurious bed sheets that'll transform your room into a 5-star resort, below.
