The 14 Best Luxury Bathrobes of 2024, Tested and Reviewed

Best Overall

Kashwere Signature Shawl Collar Robe

$168 at Amazon View on Kashwere.com View on Paynesgray.com

Picture the warmest, most glorious blanket you’ve ever cuddled up in. Now, picture that same blanket with sleeves and a self-tie belt. That’s the experience we had each time we wore this shawl collar robe from Kashwére. We had been enjoying a high-end designer robe prior to testing, but we’ve moved on now that we know this supremely comfortable robe exists.

It’s pure heaven wearing this robe, right down to the logo that’s imprinted right on the robe to save us from the annoyance of a tag. We especially loved putting this superabsorbent robe on after a shower — any spot we missed toweling off was soon dry. During the two weeks of testing, we didn’t spot a wrinkle or a bit of lint on this robe, and there’s no hint of stretching or pilling, either. We even washed out a small stain by hand without a problem.

We liked that the robe felt stretchy and comfortable, and it stayed securely tied until we loosened the belt. It’s also incredibly warm, so it’s a better choice for cooler weather. Did we mention it has pockets? We could go on and on, but we’ll finish up by saying that even if you’ve never been a “robe person” before, this one from Kashwére will convert you.

Best Spa Robe

Four Seasons Spa Robe

View on Fourseasons.com

Some might only wear a bathrobe occasionally, but this spa robe from the Four Seasons became part of our go-to at-home wardrobe during testing. It was so comfortable, we wore it every chance we could get. Without exaggeration, wearing this terry robe felt like we were being hugged by a cloud. The cotton is luxuriously soft and refuses to wrinkle — we even washed it quite a few times and it still looks brand-new. It’s roomy and comfortable, and we love that the pockets are also spacious enough for a phone or even a snack (no judging).

This robe is incredibly warm, so it’s probably better to reserve it for getting cozy in the winter. If we had to pick a single (small) flaw, it’s that it isn’t that absorbent if you’re wearing it straight out of the shower. But we’ll gladly take another minute to towel off fully before slipping into this incredibly comfortable spa robe that makes us feel like we have indeed checked into for a weekend at the Four Seasons.

The Details: M-3XL | 100 percent microsuede exterior, 100 percent microfiber terry interior | Machine washable

Best Absorbent

The Mark Bathrobes

View on Themarkhotel.com

This 100 percent cotton robe feels supersoft on the outside. On the inside it feels like a towel, and it’s absorbent enough to wear out of the shower. We did notice that the robe shrunk a tiny bit after washing, but the quality of the material held up with no wrinkles, discoloration, or other signs of wear. There are two belt tie loops — one on the inside and the exterior belt — and we much preferred the latter for a more comfortable fit. The robe also features upper and lower loops so you can customize the height of your belt. We liked the roomy fit that provides comfortable warmth without overheating, so it’s a good contender for a year-round robe. There are two spacious pockets on the front that are deep enough to hold a phone or, more importantly, keep your hands warm on chilly days. The sleeves were a bit short, but the fit was otherwise comfortable being that this is a one-size-fits-all design.

The Details: One size fits all (also available in children’s sizes) | 100 percent Egyptian cotton

Most Comfortable

UGG Marlow Robe

$145 at Amazon $145 at Nordstrom $145 at Zappos

If you’ve ever slipped into a pair of Ugg boots and wondered, “Why can’t the rest of my body experience this softness?” you’re in luck. The Marlow robe offers the plush warmth you expect from an Ugg product and will be your go-to for lounging this winter. We were impressed with the robe’s high-quality construction, and we noticed that it stayed wrinkle-free and looked good as new even after a wash.

This robe is roomy, but it does run true to size. We found the sleeves fit well without being too long, and the self-tie robe stayed snug. We felt warm without being overheated, though we’d probably reserve this for the cooler months. It’s not absorbent for wearing straight out of the shower and would likely be too warm to wear if you’re drying your hair, but if you want a soft, sumptuous robe for lounging, this robe is a great choice.

The Details: XXS-3XL | 100 percent polyester | Machine washable

Best for Men

Ugg Robinson Robe

$148 at Amazon $148 at Nordstrom $148 at Zappos

If you expect a lot from your robe, the Ugg Robinson will deliver. Want a robe that’s absorbent enough for after a shower? Check. Comfortable for lounging around watching TV? Check. Warm enough to take a nap in like a blanket? Check.

After putting this robe through its paces during testing, we were pleased to see that it held up very well after washing with no wrinkles, shedding, lingering odors, or other signs of wear. We loved the luxurious material that had some heft to it but felt lightweight at the same time. The fit is roomy, but we liked how the belt stayed tied for a snugger fit. The pockets are a plus — we can confirm they are spacious enough to hold a phone and even a TV remote, so it’s a no-brainer to wear when relaxing on the couch. If we had to change anything, we would add a hood, but this comfortable robe is cozy and warm enough without it.

The Details: XS/S-XL/XXL | 30 percent cotton, 70 percent polyester, 100 percent polyester pile | Machine washable

Best Monogrammed

RH Luxury Plush Long Robe

View on Rh.com

Nothing quite says “mine” like monogrammed clothing. A monogrammed robe, however, is on another level and makes time spent lounging at home extra special. We love this soft, plush robe from Restoration Hardware. We were impressed by both the lush fabric and the robe’s construction. There was no shedding during the entire testing period, even after washing. It kept us warm without overheating, making this one we’ll grab during any season. It’s not too absorbent to dry you off completely post-shower, but you’ll want to towel off quickly so you can pull on what feels more like a warm hug than an ordinary robe. The belt was snug yet comfortable and stayed securely in place the entire time we wore it. The sleeves are a bit long, but rolling them up is a small price to pay for such luxurious comfort. Add a single initial or a three-letter monogram to the left chest and you’ve got a special gift for someone (including yourself).

The Details: XS-XL | 100 percent poly-plush | Machine washable

Best Fuzzy

Barefoot Dreams CozyChic Robe

View on Amazon $138 at Zappos View on Barefootdreams.com

This cozy robe from Barefoot Dreams was one of the most comfortable we’ve ever tried on. It’s made from incredibly soft and fuzzy polyester microfiber; we were impressed to see that it didn’t shed or leave lint all over the place. It even stayed wrinkle-free the entire time during testing, and though we did notice a slight difference in the fuzziness after washing, there was no discoloration.

Wearing this robe felt on par with being wrapped in a blanket. If you run warm, you might feel a little overheated in this robe — it’s definitely one for the colder weather. This robe was quite long, including the sleeves and belt. It’s roomy and stretchy, so you’ll be fine ordering your normal size. We liked that there were no scratchy tags or zippers, and we appreciated the roomy pocket for our phone. It’s also pretty absorbent — this is something you won’t mind pulling on while you’re damp after a shower.

The Details: Sizes 1-3 | 100 percent polyester microfiber | Machine washable

Best Waffle

Parachute Waffle Robe

$149 at Parachute

Robes are meant to be cozy, but too much of a good thing can lead to being uncomfortably warm. That’s why we love this breathable waffle knit robe from Parachute. It looks and feels like a bathrobe you’d find at a luxury hotel, though we’re more than happy to wear it around our house. It’s got a roomy fit that provides ample coverage. We liked that it’s machine washable, and the material seemed to hold up well after a wash (we hung it to dry to ensure it wouldn’t shrink).

We’ll admit we had our eye on this beauty for a while now, and it did not disappoint. As much as we love a thick, fuzzy robe, we like even more that we can reach for this lightweight robe any day of the year, much like a favorite cardigan sweater. It’s definitely become part of our post-shower ritual, and every time we feel cozy without being overheated. We love the shorter length of this robe (it hit us at about tea length). It runs true to size and is roomy enough to layer pajamas beneath it. The bell sleeves are a bit large: be sure to roll them up when washing your face or brushing your teeth. We like that there’s spacious pockets on either side deep enough to carry your phone around.

The Details: XS-XL | 100 percent Turkish cotton | Machine washable

Best Bamboo

Cariloha Bamboo Bath Robe

View on Cariloha.com $106 at Macy's View on Dillards.com

As a fabric, bamboo is seemingly infused with superpowers. It stops odors and allergens in their tracks, feels supremely soft, and is made from sustainable fibers. So it’s natural that we’d love this bamboo robe from Cariloha. We loved how soft and luxurious this material felt, though it’s got enough heft to keep us cozy. This robe felt like it was made for us. The sleeves landed right at the wrists, and the length was below the knees. It draped well without restricting our movement, and we liked how the belt was able to stay tied securely. The interior is soft but more absorbent than the outer material, which means you can wear it straight out of the bath or shower to dry off. We liked the roomy pockets on either side that were perfect for stowing our phone. If we had to improve anything, it would be to reinforce the delicate belt loops, but that won’t stop us from reaching for this robe day after day.

The Details: S/M-L/XL | Viscose from bamboo interior; micro-polyester blend exterior | Machine washable

Most Stylish

KIM+ONO Short Kimono Robe

$140 at Amazon View on Kimandono.com $140 at Etsy

Some robes are more about function than style, which is why we love a kimono. Even if you have no intention of leaving your home (or the couch), you can still look great in this short silky robe from KIM+ONO. It’s made from polyester charmeuse that feels so luxurious, we’d find any excuse to slip into this kimono, day or night. The exterior looks and feels silky smooth, while the interior has more of a matte appearance. This is a thinner robe, but it’s comfortable to wear even if it’s not as plush and soft as others on our list. It washes up well, but it is prone to wrinkles, so be sure to hang this up carefully in between uses. This is a great option when you need something to throw on while getting ready, but it can also serve as your main robe during the warmer months. The hardest thing about this robe is choosing which color to get the gorgeous butterfly and peony pattern in.

The Details: One size fits most | Polyester charmeuse | Machine washable

Best Lightweight

The Company Store Legends Luxury Kimono Robe

View on The Company Store

Not every relaxing situation calls for a fluffy, warm robe. If you just want to cover up after a shower or add an extra layer to pajamas, a kimono is a stylish way to lounge around. We loved this one made of Pima cotton from The Company Store. The fabric is soft and delicate without being flimsy; in fact, we were quite impressed with the quality of the material that held up well even after a wash. The length of the robe and the sleeves were just fine and the robe itself was roomy, though true to size.

This kimono is proof that a robe doesn’t have to be fleecy to feel soft and luxurious on your skin. We prefer a more lightweight robe, and this was perfect for wearing while lounging or getting dressed. The silky belt has a way of loosening, which is why we appreciated that it was attached to the kimono so it wouldn’t slip off completely. The side pockets were a plus.

The Details: XS-XXL | 100 percent Peruvian pima cotton | Machine washable

Best for Lounging

Cuyana Washable Charmeuse Robe

View on Cuyana.com

This is not one of those robes that wraps you up in a fuzzy cocoon, and we’re more than okay with that. This roomy yet wonderfully lightweight wrap from Cuyana offers coverage without making us feel overheated. We love that the belt ties firmly in place despite the slippery, soft material, too. In short, this short robe is perfect loungewear for lazy mornings (or anytime) in late spring and summer. This luxurious robe has the look and feel of silk, but it’s made from charmeuse, so it’s washable. You can put it in the wash on cold, but we opted to wash it by hand and dry flat, then hang it to get the wrinkles out, and it held up well with no shedding or discoloration. Speaking of color, the robe we tested was in a beautiful jade, but you can also choose from black, sky blue, pearl, and palm (bright green).

The Details: XS-XL | Charmeuse silk | Machine washable

Best Maternity

Storq Feel Good Delivery Robe

View on Storq.com

Some robes are required to go above and beyond in that they need to keep both mama and her little bun(s) in the oven cozy. That’s why we love the Feel Good Delivery robe from Storq. It’s lightweight yet cozy and perfect for wearing both during and after your pregnancy.

If you’re worried that a maternity robe looks more like a tarp with a belt, know that this one made from modal and spandex looks and feels luxurious. It’s roomy enough to drape nicely without any fear of a (ward)robe malfunction. It’s perfect for layering over pajamas, but it’s also nice for right out of the shower. We liked that it washed up well without any pilling or discoloration. This robe combines comfort with function. The sleeves run shorter, so if you wear this postpartum, there’s no need to roll them up to comfortably hold your little one or change a diaper.

The Details: XS/S-3XL/4XL | Modal spandex jersey; certified standard 100 by Oeko-tex | Machine washable

Best Silk

Lunya Washable Silk Robe

$278 at Amazon $150 at Nordstrom $278 at Lunya.co

There’s nothing like the feel of a silk robe. This one from Lunya made getting ready for the day feel like a luxury — and, yes, it was heaven to finish the day wearing it, too. We were impressed by the high-quality silk fabric that was, miraculously, machine washable. It is prone to wrinkles, but it washes up well. This is not one of those robes to slip in right out of the shower nor is it one that will make you feel toasty warm, but it’s wonderful for lounging. We thought it was a nice touch to have cuffs at the sleeves to keep them from billowing. The rest of the robe, however, is flowy and comfortable, though we did size up for an even more comfortable fit. Just be sure to tie your belt tight, as the silky material makes this robe a bit tricky to keep securely closed.

The Details: XS/S-1X | 100 percent Mulberry silk | Machine washable
