500gsm Luxury Guest Towels — 30×50cm, 100% Cotton
Sized at 30×50cm — smaller than a hand towel, bigger than a face cloth — these 500gsm guest towels are 100% cotton and built for the specific job guest towels do: a fresh, presentable towel by the sink that doesn't need replacing after every single use. Available in Cream, White or Black, from packs of 12 to boxes of 240.
Key Features
- 500gsm, 100% cotton
- 30×50cm — the standard guest towel size, between face cloth and hand towel
- Three colours: Cream, White, Black
- Pack of 12, Box of 168, or Box of 240
Guest towels occupy an odd size gap most people don't think about until they're stocking a cloakroom or a spa reception: too big to be a face cloth, too small to be a proper hand towel, and specifically sized so guests use one, dry their hands, and leave it looking used rather than sodden. That's the actual job 30×50cm is doing.
At 500gsm, these have enough weight to feel like a proper towel rather than a paper substitute, while staying compact enough that a stack of them doesn't dominate a small guest bathroom or cloakroom shelf. 100% cotton means they hold that weight and softness through repeat commercial laundering, which matters if you're washing and restocking daily rather than weekly.
Three colours cover the two most common guest-towel briefs: Cream and White for a clean, hotel-standard look, Black where a bolder or more modern bathroom scheme calls for it.

Why Buy
30×50cm is a genuinely different size brief to a hand towel, not a smaller version of one — sized specifically for guest bathrooms, cloakrooms and spa receptions where towels get used once and need replacing fast. At 500gsm and 100% cotton, they hold up to that daily turnover better than a thinner guest towel would.
FAQs
What's the difference between a guest towel and a hand towel?
Guest towels are smaller (30×50cm vs a hand towel's typical 50×80-90cm) and are specifically sized for single-use presentation in cloakrooms, guest bathrooms and reception areas — not for the repeated daily drying a family hand towel handles. Our towel sizes guide covers every size.
Is 500gsm too heavy for a small guest towel?
No — the weight is what stops it feeling flimsy or paper-thin despite the compact size. It's a genuine 100% cotton towel scaled down, not a lighter-weight product.
What pack sizes suit a hotel cloakroom or spa reception?
Pack of 12 works for a single cloakroom; Box of 168 or Box of 240 suit hotels and spas restocking multiple bathrooms or running daily guest-towel turnover.
Do you offer this in bath towel or bath sheet sizes from the same range?
This specific 500gsm guest towel size is 30×50cm only — for matching bath towels and bath sheets at 500gsm, see our 500gsm Royal Egyptian range or our 500gsm ring spun institutional range.
