4 Foolproof tips for purchasing the best luxury bath towels
8th Jan 2025
The soft, sturdy, faithful bath towel. Some people don't give their bath towels a lot of thought until it’s time to purchase new ones.
However, once the search is on, questions inevitably arise. How can you make sure you're selecting towels that can last a long time? What sets luxury bath towel sets apart from ordinary, everyday towels?
Before you go shopping, read and use these tips to discover what earns the best, softest, and most amazing bath towels the label of “luxury bath towels.” You’ll thank yourself every time you step out of the shower.
1. Towel softness isn't everything
We love soft towels, but softness doesn't always equate to quality.
This is because some towels contain added softeners that enhance their softness and comfort. However, these softeners gradually wash out over time, leaving the towel feeling scratchy and uncomfortable after taking a bath.
Choosing the right towel ensures that buyers are getting the best combination of softness, absorbency, and durability for their needs, making it a worthwhile investment and a form of self-care.
2. Bath towel fabric can make or break the deal
Unlike some synthetic fabrics, cotton is incredibly strong and durable even after multiple washes, and even gets softer with each wash, enhancing the luxurious and soothing experience after a long relaxing bath.
While you want a towel that's soft, you also need one that's absorbent. The best type of towel is one that wicks up moisture up and away from your skin for the ultimate absorbency, like our Egyptian Royale towels.
As an eco-friendly alternative that's also hypoallergenic, Alessia Cotton Bamboo towels are not only super absorbent but they're also moisture wicking -- making Cotton Bamboo the ultimate combo that leaves you feeling dry after a shower or a soak!
While 100% cotton sounds great, construction is also important. We are so confident in the construction of our towels, that they all have a 5 year warranty.

3. Patterns matter in your bath towel set
While luxury towels should feel great, they should also look good in your bathroom. Choose colours that will complement your bathroom's interior and design that will maintain their appearance after multiple washes. Stick to classic colours such as white, ivory, or any muted tones to have a more luxurious vibe.
