เตียงคู่

Explanation

เตียงคู่ is formed from เตียง, “bed,” and คู่, “pair” or “couple.” It commonly appears in hotel descriptions, travel bookings, and discussions of room types. Its exact meaning is not consistent across all speakers and establishments. It can describe either two separate beds or one large bed for two. เตียง also serves as the classifier for individual beds, as in หนึ่งเตียง, “one bed.” Rooms are counted with ห้อง.

Usage

It is commonly used when booking hotels, checking in, arranging accommodations through a travel agency, or describing guest rooms. It may also be used when discussing furniture or a bed intended for two people.

Caution

When booking a room, เตียงคู่ alone may be misunderstood. To avoid confusion, specify หนึ่งเตียงใหญ่ for one large bed, or สองเตียงแยกกัน or เตียงแฝด for two separate beds.

  เตียงแฝด more clearly means two separate beds. เตียงคู่ can have the same meaning, but it is less precise because some hotels use it for one double bed.
