what size is a super king bed

A standard super king bed is typically 180 cm wide by 200 cm long, which is about 6 ft wide by 6 ft 6 in long.

Quick Scoop

  • In most UK/European guides, a super king mattress is:
    • 180 cm x 200 cm.
* Approx 71 in x 79 in.
* Often described as 6 ft x 6 ft 6 in.
  • It’s the same length as a regular king, just wider by about 30 cm (around 12 in), giving couples noticeably more elbow room.

Regional nuance (very briefly)

  • UK/Europe: “Super king” is a standard size: 180 cm x 200 cm.
  • US: “Super king” isn’t a common official label; closest standard big sizes are king (76 in x 80 in) and California king (72 in x 84 in).

Minimum room fit

If you’re planning your bedroom, most UK guides suggest you only go super king if you have a fairly large room, so you can still walk around the bed comfortably.
