If you are uncomfortably warm while you sleep, your mattress may be partially to blame. Beds made of dense materials, like traditional memory foam, trap heat and raise your body temperature during the night. If you wake up feeling warm, purchasing a cooling mattress will provide some relief. Features like coils, air vents, cooling gel, and cool-to-the-touch materials help the body maintain a lower temperature that is ideal for restful sleep.
Hybrid Mattresses & Hot Sleepers
Hybrid mattresses offer combined support of innerspring coils and memory foam. The lower layer of innersprings allows for air circulation and helps reduce heat. So, if you are someone that likes the body contouring and pressure-relieving effect of memory foam but struggles with hot sleeping temperatures, a cooling hybrid mattress is a perfect compromise and is considered the best mattress type for hot sleepers.

Cooling Mattress vs. Regular Mattress
A mattress rated as a cooling bed has distinct differences in construction and materials compared to regular mattresses. The four most common ways manufacturers deliver a cooling effect are:
- Vents and chambers | Cooling mattresses have breathable chambers that promote air circulation and wick away heat.
- Cool to the touch materials | Synthetic textiles made from rayon or nylon draw heat away from the body. These bed materials offer immediate relief but will not maintain comfort throughout the night.
- Cooling technology and built-in features | Revolutionary materials like cooling gel and phase change foam release heat during the night for a prolonged cooling effect. On the other hand, traditional mattresses are made with tightly packed fibers, which capture heat and keep it on the surface, resulting in a hot bed.
- Electric add-ons | This is the least common way manufacturers deliver a cooling experience in their mattresses. Electric add-ons are high maintenance and require frequent adjustment by the user.

FAQs
Which is cooler: memory foam vs gel memory foam mattresses?
Gel memory foam feels cooler than regular foam materials because it traps less heat. If you love the feel of a memory foam bed but are tired of waking up hot, find a cool gel memory mattress infused with gel pods. In addition to providing cooling relief, gel foam is also bouncier and more responsive than traditional memory foam.
Are hybrid mattresses hot?
Hybrid mattresses are an excellent choice for people who experience overheating during the night. The top layer of hybrid mattresses offers the body contouring of memory foam, while the lower layer of inner springs provides supportive comfort and better airflow. Hybrid mattresses constructed of individually wrapped coils encourage better air circulation and keep you cooler during the night.
Are foam mattresses hot?
Yes. Traditional memory foam is dense, and traps heat. However, new technology has improved the construction of memory foam mattresses to promote more airflow. The additions of gel and phase change material can help release heat during the night while still offering the same body contouring effect that makes memory foam mattresses so appealing.
