Hypnos Cambridge Review
The Hypnos Cambridge is a beautiful mattress that uses high quality materials. It is Australian made and comes with a 15 year warranty.
Purchase and delivery
The Hypnos Cambridge range can be purchased through the Beds n Dreams website or at any of their 30 plus stores Australia-wide. Delivery costs will depend on your location, but a typical delivery cost to a metropolitan area is $80.
This collection includes a plush, medium and firm version. King and super king size mattress can also be specially ordered with different firmness levels on each side (e.g. firm on one side and medium on the other).
The mattress arrived in a two piece, sturdy cardboard box, along with 2 thick plastic wrappings. Once these were removed, it revealed a lovely Hypnos fabric ‘bedwrap’ that definitely sets the vibe.
From the outside, the Hypnos Cambridge oozes luxury and elegance. It sits 42cm high and uses a light grey and cream colour theme. The exquisite stitching and embroidery reinforce the premium status of this mattress.
The Hypnos ‘God of Sleep’ medallion gives the mattress a magnificent touch of class, as do the nickel border air vents. The handles contain a product number, and you can even request your name to be embroidered on the handles.
Comfort and support
The top comfort layer of this mattress starts with a premium cover made of a silk yarn and a silk/wool blended fibre. This cover feels soft and breathable, and has been treated with Virase to help minimise the spread of viral infections.
Underneath this cover lies an assortment of premium foams that includes copper gel memory foam, hospital high grade foam, and stamina foam.
This top comfort layer feels luxurious and expensive, with a firm, dense feel. It absorbs body weight well and we certainly didn’t detect any sinking or sagging.
This mattress should suit all sleeping positions (side sleepers, back sleepers, and stomach sleepers) but understandably, its suitability will vary between individuals. Our team rated it a 8 / 10 on the firmness scale (with 10 being the firmest).
Firm version
Our team rated the medium version a 6.5 / 10 on the firmness scale (with 10 being the firmest).
Medium Version
Our team rated the plush version a 5 / 10 on the firmness scale (with 10 being the firmest).
Plush version
Please note that our firmness ratings are just a guide and they do not necessarily relate to comfort. Furthermore, our firmness ratings are assigned based on Bedbuyer’s testing process and these may differ from firmness ratings given by individual companies.
The Hypnos Cambridge uses an incredibly robust, European 9 zone pocket spring system. This support structure feels strong, stable, and will easily accommodate people of all sizes. It offers excellent back support and should help to maintain a healthy spinal position.
The Hypnos Cambridge responds nicely to normal sleep movements and we rated its level of responsiveness in the ‘optimal’ zone. In basic terms, this means that changing sleep positions (and intimate activities) shouldn’t be any trouble.
Please note that our responsiveness scales are just a guide and preferred responsiveness levels will vary between individuals. It’s worth noting also that innerspring mattresses are generally more responsive than foam mattresses.
The finer details
As you would expect, the overall build quality of this mattress is exceptional. The finishings and embroidery are first class, and the fabrics feel expensive and durable.
Edge support is sound thanks to the full, high definition foam box around the main (9 zone) spring system. It’s worth noting also that the top comfort layer (pillow top) has a foam box to further enhance edge support.
Partner disturbance is noticeable, but certainly not significant. As always though, motion transfer will vary depending on the mattress size and the size of the occupants of the bed.
All foams used in this mattress are certified as eco-friendly and non-toxic by GECA.
All foams used in this mattress are certified as eco-friendly and non-toxic by GECA, so you can feel safe bringing this product into your home. The Hypnos Cambridge Plush also comes with an impressive a 15 year warranty.
What bed base should I use?
As with most mattresses, we recommend this mattress to be used with a bed base with solid slats (not flexible/posture slats), such as the Atlantis Bed Base.
Use of an unsupportive mattress foundation will usually void the mattress warranty.
Furthermore, we do not recommend this mattress to be used with an adjustable (electric) bed base as this may void the warranty. Here is our full list of mattresses that are compatible with an adjustable bed base.
It’s worth noting here that mattress firmness, performance, and durability will vary with different bed bases.
Available sizes
The Hypnos Cambridge is available in all 7 sizes (super king, king, queen, double, king single, long single, and single) so it should suit all adult sleeping situations.
Here are Australia’s standard bed (mattress) sizes in 2025.
Final verdict
The Hypnos Cambridge is a lovely mattress that comes with plenty of quality, comfort, and support. It uses a quality spring system and should last for many years.
Bedbuyer’s rating: 4.6 / 5
