The UAE mostly uses metric bed sizes, but names vary between brands. This table shows the most common dimensions you will see in Dubai stores.
| Name | Typical size | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Single | 90×190 or 90×200 cm | Children's rooms, twin guest rooms |
| Super single | 120×200 cm | Teenagers, small guest rooms |
| Queen | 160×200 cm | Studios, second bedrooms |
| King | 180×200 cm | Master bedrooms |
| Super king | 200×200 cm | Large master suites and villas |
How much space do you need?
Leave at least 60 cm on each side of the bed for bedside tables and access, and 75–90 cm at the foot if there is a wardrobe or dresser opposite.
Choosing a mattress
Orthopaedic and pocket-spring mattresses suit most people. In Dubai's warm climate, look for breathable covers. For rentals, always add a waterproof protector.
Twin or double for guest rooms?
Two singles offer more flexibility for holiday homes, since they suit friends, siblings or children. Some can be zipped together to form a king.
