An insomniac for decades, I’ve tried everything from hypnotherapy to acupuncture, including sleep retreats at hotels where I’ve even been hooked up to numerous cables overnight to test my sleep quality. All to no avail.
These days, I accept that sleep will always be a struggle, even with the eye mask and white noise machine I always take on my travels. But my ears pricked up when I heard that The Mandeville, in a quiet part of Marylebone, was London ’s first hotel to equip some of its rooms with Dux mattresses from Duxiana, the Swedish company that is the official bed supplier for Tottenham Hotspur Football Club. Players sleep on beds that cost £25,000 both in their home and in the exclusive Spurs Lodge hotel where they stay before matches.
The Mandeville's aren’t quite the same, at £10,000 for the mattress, but the Dux 31 still uses the same sleep technology, which Geoff Scott, head of medicine and sports scie.
