You can't go wrong with our overall best pick, the classic cotton bathrobe from Snowe that prioritizes comfort and ease with simple machine washing instructions that don't affect the robe's quality or softness. Wear this robe after the shower for a super absorbent feel or during chilly winter nights to stay cozy and warm in three warm and classic colors.

Our tester loved how the Snowe bathrobe managed to feel lightweight and never too warm while remaining soft and fluffy to the touch. Also, the durable material felt as good as new after multiple rounds of washing, earning a near-perfect review.

While the color and shade range isn't super extensive, the robe's simple yet elegant design is ideal for both men and women. Like Snowe's other offerings, this robe is also OEKO-TEX certified, which guarantees that there are no potentially hazardous materials in any of the components found in testing. Buyers won't have to worry about what their robe is made out of—just soft and fluffy, 100% long-staple luxurious cotton here.

Amazon Essentials Women's Lightweight Waffle Full-Length Robe

View On Amazon

While there are many luxury robes on the market, you don't have to splurge to find a perfectly comfortable and stylish one for yourself. This pick from Amazon Essentials features a cozy waffle texture that absorbs water after a shower while keeping you warm in the winter.

While extremely affordable, we also love this option because of its extensive size and color range. You can opt for a classic white or bold mustard yellow, and the belt loops and tie-front belt add to a timeless design with added pockets for functionality. For such a budget-friendly price, we recommend buying a few for friends and family.

Perhaps the most gift-worthy robe on this list, the Frontgate Resort Plush Robe lives up to its name with a luxuriously comfortable feel and stylish design. It comes in five soft and warm colors with an optional monogram to fit every style and taste, making it perfect for any gifting occasion.

The kimono style ensures the robe stays closed and flatters the body, while our tester says the cuffed sleeves add a fashionable touch. She also loved how absorbent this robe felt after coming out of the shower, providing a luxe, hotel-quality experience. Along with the comfortable and soft material blend, this robe comes highly rated for good reasons.

Waffled material is perfect for year-round use because it's thick enough to keep you warm on cold nights, yet lightweight enough to prevent overheating. And while the color and size range is a bit limiting, our tester loved the feel of the Quince Organic Turkish Waffle Robe. She wore it for hours on end without feeling uncomfortable or scratchy.

During testing, the thick waffle material proved a bit difficult to maneuver; the robe may not stay closed as well as other options. We should also note that this kind of robe is not designed with flattery in mind, more geared towards bundling up than, say, a silk or linen option. Overall, our tester rated this robe extremely highly for its soft feel and durable construction.

Best Absorbent

Brooklinen Super-Plush Robe

Living up to its name, the Brooklinen Super-Plush robe is luxuriously soft and fluffy. For those looking to lounge inside of a cloud, this cotton robe prioritizes comfort and absorbency, making it ideal for warming up after a shower or bath or layering over pajamas on cold nights. Most ultra-plush robes can appear bulky or oversized; however, the Super-Plush Robe has a tie waist and a flattering design for all body types.

While this cotton robe is easy to care for, our tester found that the robe's quality was affected after its first wash. The material began to pull slightly and did not feel quite as plush. Despite this, the luxurious feel justifies buying this robe for lounging on weekends or wearing between Zoom calls.

Land's End lends some of their classic prints to their Supima Cotton Long Robe. Available in two fun patterns—as well as solid colors, like ivory and navy blue—this robe comes in petite, plus, and regular sizes to ensure everyone finds the right design and size for them. Plus, with the option to embroider or monogram, this cotton robe also makes a great gift.

Due to its lightweight feel, the Supima Cotton Long Robe is ideal for the warmer months. Our tester compared it to wearing her favorite t-shirt, providing a soft and cozy feel that won't cling to your body. An additional tie inside the robe adds an extra element of security for keeping the robe closed when moving about. Our tester noted that this robe remains a great choice for lounging around, but is perhaps not the best option for keeping toasty in the winter or drying yourself after a steamy shower.

For a pure silk robe that's soft and durable, Fishers Finery boasts high-quality options that are available in a range of sizes and colors. The company's 100% Pure Mulberry Silk Mid-Length Robe is woven from 100 percent mulberry silk—the highest quality silk—and has a thoughtful design. There's an inner "modesty tie" and two front pockets for stashing personal items. The cinched back offers a more custom fit, too.

If you're unsure about investing in silk, it's much more breathable than fleece, sherpa, or even cotton, and it feels cool against the skin. Pay special attention to the care tag, though, because silk is a delicate fabric that should be hand-washed or machine-washed on delicate. Luckily, our tester found that the material, fit, and feel of the robe held up after multiple washes. We also love that the robe comes with a mesh bag for convenient washing.

Similar to other robes on this list, the L.L.Bean Scotch Plaid Flannel Robe has a tie belt, shawl collar, and generous side pockets. It's made from Portuguese flannel that's machine washable and soft to the touch—even after multiple washes, though it may take a little extra time to dry fully.

If you live in a cold climate, you'll love this robe's long length and generous cut, which allows for clothing or heavier pajamas to be layered underneath. During testing, we found the fabric to be slightly thinner than normal flannel; even so, it still provides a cozy feel that might be too warm for spring or summer months. And while our tester is on the shorter side, she ordered a petite size and found the length just right—not too long nor too short.

Venture outside the classic white bathrobe with The Company Store's Turkish Long Cotton Robe. Rock yours in a deep royal blue, soft pale pink, rich jade green, or more, with an impressive size range of XS-XXL that makes it stand out among competitors. Wearers can add some flair to their nighttime attire without sacrificing comfort or warmth.

One downside is that the bright colors can fade slightly after washing. Yet, the thick and warm cotton makes this robe feel luxurious without the risk of overheating, according to our tester, who also loved the large pockets with enough room to comfortably fit a phone or other gadgets. Additionally, the long belt helps keep this robe closed and in place for wearing while moving throughout your home or just lounging on the couch.

Best Jersey

Natori Shangri-La Robe

View On Amazon View On Bloomingdales View On Natori.com

Natori is known for its stylish loungewear, and its Shangri-La Robe is no exception. Made from 65 percent modal and 35 percent polyester, this jersey robe is a great choice for summer months when a heavier robe is just too much. Our tester found that during hours of wearing the robe, she never felt too hot.

The robe comes in sizes XS through XXL and in eight different colors, from bright red to classic navy. It's an ultra-soft robe that is lightweight but comfy enough to sleep in. Plus, it isn't too bulky and great for travel. Just note that our tester had issues with the two ties, which are designed to keep the robe closed but didn't quite do the trick. She also found her robe stretched out when hung on a hook. Still, the comfort and style of this robe made it a must-buy.

Lunya Washable Silk Robe

View On Amazon View On Bergdorfgoodman.com View On Lunya.co

Lunya's Washable Silk Robe is made from 100 percent silk and has an oversized fit, so you can layer it over pajamas or loungewear. It has a cinched back with a belt tie that's attached to the back, so you won't have to worry about it falling off when it's in the wash (yes, it's machine washable). The cuffs are also cinched, and it has two roomy pockets for added convenience, which our tester loved.

While the silk gives a lavish look, we found that this robe can wrinkle very easily, and it may not provide enough warmth on winter nights. Our tester gravitated towards this robe during warmer months when looking for a luxurious touch to their nighttime routine, making the Lunya robe a great option for a special occasion gift.

Parachute Classic Turkish Cotton Robe

For a plush robe that can be worn (or gifted) by just about everyone, we recommend Parachute's Classic Turkish Cotton Robe. Crafted from Turkish cotton that's soft and absorbent, it's perfect for throwing on post-shower or while you're reading the morning paper. If you're not sure what material is best for you, Parachute has tons of information on their website including a "robe quiz" for finding the right size and material for you.

This pick has a wrap front with double belt loops that give this robe a classic look. Plus, it comes with deep pockets to hold all of your essentials. In five classic neutral shades, it's sure to please any recipient. Also, be sure to check back seasonally for limited edition colors. We also love that this robe is easy to clean in the washing machine.

Best Short

Soma Cool Nights Robe

View On Soma.com

Known for comfortable bras and intimates, Soma's sleepwear and robe options are equally as impressive. The Cool Nights Robe offers lightweight and temperature-regulating comfort even during the warm months. The short length ensures you won't overheat along with the oversized look and roomy sleeves.

The lightweight rayon also avoids sticking to your body, making it perfect for those living in warm climates. The classic black matches seamlessly with any pajamas or loungewear, but there are a few pattern options for those looking for something a little different.
