Expert tips for choosing the best towels for your bathroom with Woods Fine Linens
Choosing towels is a little more than a functional choice; it's about creating a bathroom that's an oasis of relaxation and style. Whether you're making your oasis spa or just upgrading some plain essentials, good-quality towels can easily turn this one-sided routine into an act of indulgence. At Woods Fine Linens, we believe that luxury is all about detail, and the perfect towel should delight you with every use.
From beauty to durability and comfort, here is our expert guide to choosing towels so you can live a five-star life every day.
1. The Fabric Choice: Why Cotton Reigns Supreme
First things first, the fabric of the towel. Pure indulgence-all-cotton towels are available. You just can't beat the towels made from Egyptian cotton; the long fibres make for a soft yet absorbent towel. These become softer and fluffier with each wash to give you just the right luxurious feel. If you like a lighter feel but still want great absorbency, Turkish cotton is great and perfect for humid areas because of its quicker drying time.
Woods Fine Linens Tip: Our collection of towels is made with Egyptian cotton and is the best for the ultimate in luxury and durability and will continue to grace your bathroom for years to come.
2. GSM: The Science of Softness and Weight
Knowing, therefore, what GSM means will help you strike a balance between thickness and absorbency as you select your perfect towel.
300-400 GSM: Perfectly lightweight for the gym and travel, these quick-dry towels are great for the go.
500-600 GSM: Medium-weight towels, plush enough for everyday use.
700 GSM & Above: Super dense for ultra-absorbency, these towels are for those seeking the ultimate spa feeling.
Are you looking to create hotel-like luxury in the bathroom? The towels with at least 600 GSM can ensure the plushest feel.
3. Choose the Right Size for Each Use
A bathroom towel set would have several sizes with each serving a purpose.
Face towels are small in size such as 30 × 30 cm, and convenient to be used for cleaning and skin care.
Hand towels are small in size, 50 × 90 cm, serving a dual purpose-to dry your hands and light spills.
Bath towels are regular in size, 70 × 140 cm, ideal to wrap yourself in after a shower.
Bath Sheets: 100 x 150 cm or bigger for those craving a bit of luxury.
Having a full set will find you with the right towel when occasions call for it. You can even mix and match to get that coordinated look.
4. Quality Construction: All about the Details
Quality towels differ in construction. Features such as double-stitched hems and ring-spun cotton ensure the towel does not come apart over time and will retain its plushness. Combed cotton, which removes shorter threads, creates a smoother finish that adds softness and very importantly, strength.

5. Match Your Bathroom Style
Your towels should say something about the look and feel of the bathroom. Go classic whites for a clean, hotel-like finish, or go with vibrant colours and playful patterns that add a bit of personality. Decorative borders and jacquard weaves are all you need to make a statement.
6. Eco-Friendly Choices: Sustainable Luxury
Organic cotton or bamboo blend towels would be the perfect choice for you if you are extra cautious about sustainability. Many of these do not use a lot of the toxic chemicals involved in different production methods, and they spare the environment by being softer, so you can enjoy opulence with your conscience clear.
Woods Fine Linens Tip: Explore our eco-friendly towel collections, blending quality with sustainability in equal measure.
