Research shows there really is a wrong side of the bed

Sunday, 04 Jan, 2012 0

Guess what? There is a “wrong side” of the bed, according to new research from Premier Inn.

“Those who have a tendency to migrate to the left side of the bed are in fact far better off than their ’right’ counterparts,” the chain says of the old saying that someone is grouchy because he or she slept on the wrong side of the bed.

The study of 3,000 adults found that not only are those who sleep on the left generally more cheerful, but they are also more positive and capable of tackling heavy workloads and a stressful day ahead, says Premier.

“Those who sleep on the right-hand side are less likely to wake up in a good mood. Over a quarter of people who snooze on the left side of the bed feel they have a really positive outlook on life in general, compared to 18 per cent of right-side sleepers,” says the chain.

"The research clearly indicates a pattern between which side of the bed you sleep on and the mood you wake up in,” said Claire Haigh, a spokeswoman for the chain.

She added that whatever side of the bed guests’ use, they are guaranteed a good night’s sleep or receive a full refund from Premiere.
