This is my second buy of these towels. They are soft to the touch and wash well.
The hand towels are of excellent quality, very absorbent and reasonably priced.
Really impressed with the quality of these hand towels.
Really good quality, especially for the price
Very good - nice and thick
Luxurious towels at a competitive price
I have holiday lets and buy a lot of towels. I like to provide high quality towels for my guests. The towels ordered from the Towel Shop are very good quality, very nice and thick. They are also sold at an excellent price compared with other suppliers. I have not washed the towels yet, so I cannot comment on that, but I was completely happy with the prompt service and the quality.
very good quality, fast delivery
Might have given 5 stars but too early to say yet , as have only just started using the towels. So far, they appear soft, absorbent and of good quality at a reasonable price.

Buy a heavyweight bath towel and a standard hand towel to go with it, and the mismatch shows the moment a guest picks up the smaller piece — it feels thin next to everything else on the rail. Our 700 GSM hand towels use the same double yarn construction as our bath towels and bath sheets, so the weight is consistent across every piece in the set, not just the ones people see from across the room.
At 50 x 85cm, it's sized for hand-drying rather than display, but the density is identical to the larger pieces — two threads twisted together before weaving, the same construction throughout the range.
Consistency across a set matters more than any single towel's spec sheet. A guest who picks up a 700 GSM hand towel after using a 700 GSM bath sheet notices immediately if the weight doesn't match — ours doesn't give that away, because every size in the range comes from the same double yarn weave.
If you're building a set for guest rooms specifically, our guide onchoosing the right guest hand towels covers what guests actually notice in those first thirty seconds.

Does this match the weight of your 700 GSM bath towel?
Yes, exactly — same double yarn construction across every size in the range.
How does it compare to a 600 GSM hand towel?
It's noticeably denser, with more fibre per square metre from the double yarn weave. If you're building a matching heavyweight set, this is the piece that stops the hand towel feeling like an afterthought.
Is 700 GSM too heavy for a hand towel that gets used constantly through the day?
It dries slightly slower between uses than a 500 GSM hand towel, which is worth knowing if it's being picked up dozens of times a day in a busy family bathroom. For a guest bathroom or a spa setting where matching the rest of a heavyweight set matters more, that trade-off comes up far less.
Do you supply matching sets to spas and hotels?
Yes, with no minimum order — call 01204 455755 to quote a full set across hand towels, bath towels and bath sheets.
Is it colourfast?
Yes, though washing separately for the first few cycles is good practice regardless.
