Bed sizes

We are going to stay in motels, during our vacation in california



And my question is: What are the sizes of the beds? we need to have two large beds for four people. Is that two queen beds?



Whats the width of them?





Bed sizes


Hotels vary. Some will provide 2 queen sized beds and some will provide 2 doubles. Here are dimensions of each:





Full Mattress Size 54'; wide x 75'; long





Queen Mattress Size 60'; wide x 80'; long





Hotels will specify which size they provide.



Bed sizes


Suzie whilst we are bilingual here in UK regarding imperial and metric measurements I bet Hotrod over in Sweden had to dig out his trusty calculator to convert those inches to metric.



4%26#39;6'; = 54'; = 1.37m approx width



5%26#39;0'; = 60'; = 1.52m approx width



or King = spacious, Queen = cosy.




LOL very good. Did not think of that. Also interchangeable words full=double




If you can get a ';king'; size bed, they%26#39;ll probably be ';California King'; in California.



Dimensions: 72'; wide, 84'; long (1.85m x 2.15m).



In other parts of the US, you will get an Eastern ';King:';



Dimensions: 76'; wide, 80'; long (1.95m x 2.05m)




It is a good job Hotels don%26#39;t provide bunk beds otherwise we would have to include a third dimension. Maybe some do. I guess we will soon find out... watch this space.



(apologies to Hotrod for hijacking his thread)
