7 Best Bath Towels on Amazon, According to More Than 16,000 Reviewers
This post was originally published on this site
We’re always ready to treat ourselves to a nice new set of towels. So, naturally, we went looking for the best bath towels on Amazon. Don’t get us wrong—a truly luxurious, fancy-ass bath towel can be one of life’s real pleasures. The thing is the good ones tend to be very expensive. And, as we all know from a life spent using bath towels, even the finest of them won’t last forever (mascara smudges are the devil!).
We were hoping to find a set that wasn’t too pricey but still high-quality, as well amply fluffy, quick-drying, and available in a variety of colors. We also wanted bath towels with an avalanche of really glowing reviews—because the best critics are the people who have and use them.
As we went looking, however, it became apparent that we would need to broaden our considerations past if they were absorbent and quick-drying towels. The quality of the material and construction would also factor in: Chemical- and pesticide-free choices won out over cotton of unknown origins or microfiber, and double-stitched hems were deemed preferable to single.

Chakir Turkish Linens Luxury Cotton Towels
- 5-star reviews: 16,500+
- Size: 27″ x 54″
The crowning champion of Amazon as of writing? This set of classic Turkish towels. Crafted in the city of Denizli, these plush bath towels are made of soft and downy 100% Turkish cotton and come in 10 rich color options. The quality feels luxurious and stays rich to the touch over time, as one buyer attested to in their review: “They feel like towels from a posh hotel, they have worn well, looking as good now as the day we bought them.” Another reviewer echoed the longevity of the towels, pointing out how the “fibers don’t ball up” and that the seams hold steady through regular use.
Other reviewers praise their size. Clocking in at a slightly oversized 27” x 54”, this pushes the towel’s real estate just over the edge into extra-large territory. One buyer wrote that it’s the optimal balance of big enough to swaddle yourself in post-shower, but not so big that they “swallow you up.”
Salbakos Organic Turkish Bath Towels
- 5-star reviews: 3,000+
- Size: 27″ x 54″
Another standout option is this set of four eco-friendly super-absorbent bath towels by Salbakos, which are made in Turkey and available in a variety of colors. These towels don’t seem to deposit lint in the dryer, they don’t seem to fade, and they appear to be super-absorbent towels—a pretty important factor for a product that exists just to dry off your body.
White Classic Luxury Cotton bath Towels
- 5-star reviews: 7,500+
- Size: 27″ x 54″
These luxury bath towels are Oeko-Tex certified and made from high-quality combed cotton, with that double-stitch edge we lean towards. Perhaps the softest bath sheets on this list, their super-plush, luxurious feel has reviewers sold. One described their super-soft warmth as a “calm to my perpetual existential crisis,” while another compared them to “luxury five-star hotel” types of towels.
Texere Organic Cotton Luxury Bath Towels
- 5-star reviews: 350+
- Size: 35″ x 56″
