In the battle among hotels to offer the most comfortable beds, Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts is going to the mattresses.

The luxury hotel company with 92 properties, including three in the Los Angeles area, will begin to offer guests customized beds, with mattress toppers that vary in firmness at the request of guests.

The program, which is expected to be available at all Four Seasons hotels by 2016, comes in response to a survey the hotel company commissioned. The survey found that about half of all hotel guests like medium firmness, 28% preferred extra firm and 14% liked soft mattresses.
