how long is a single bed

A standard single bed (often called a twin) is usually about 190–191 cm long, which is roughly 75 inches.

Typical single bed size

• In many countries, a common single bed size is 90 cm × 190–200 cm, so the length is usually between 190 and 200 cm (about 75–79 inches).

• In North America, the typical “twin” or single mattress is about 38 in × 75 in (97 cm × 191 cm), so again the length is about 191 cm.

Regional variations

• Some European single beds are slightly longer, around 200–210 cm, sold as long or extra-long singles for taller people.

• Shorter variants exist (like 190 cm) mainly in older standards or compact rooms, but modern guides generally treat 190–200 cm as the normal length range.

Quick rule of thumb

• For most shopping sites and size charts, if you see “single” or “twin,” you can assume the length is about 190–200 cm (75–79 inches), unless marked “extra long” (often 200–210 cm).
