Divan Beds in Belgium – The Complete Guide to Storage, Sizes & Prices
Published August 3, 2026 · By Vantage Home · 7 min read
The divan bed is the most popular bed style in Belgium — and for good reason. It combines clean modern looks, built-in storage, and a complete bed set at one price. Here is everything you need to know before you buy, including sizes, storage options, and our current sale prices from €335 with a 20cm mattress included.
What Is a Divan Bed?
A divan bed is built on a solid, upholstered rectangular base rather than an open slatted frame. The base is covered in fabric or velvet and sits directly on small feet or castors. On top sits the mattress, and at the head end you attach a matching padded headboard. Together, the base, mattress and headboard make up what is called a "divan set".
This design is the most common bed type in Belgian and British bedrooms because it is sturdy, looks neat, and — crucially — the hollow base can hold storage drawers. For anyone living in a Belgian apartment where space is tight, that hidden storage is a genuine advantage over an open bed frame.
Why Divan Beds Are So Popular in Belgium
Three things make the divan the default choice for most Belgian bedrooms:
1. Built-in storage. The base can hold 2 or 4 drawers, replacing the need for a separate chest of drawers. In a small bedroom, this frees up floor space.
2. A complete set at one price. A divan bed includes the base, headboard and mattress together. You are not buying a frame and then hunting for a mattress separately — it arrives ready to sleep on.
3. Clean, versatile looks. The upholstered base suits almost any bedroom style, from minimalist to classic. Velvet finishes in grey, blue or cream are especially popular right now.
Divan Bed Storage Options: 2 vs 4 Drawers
When ordering a divan bed, you choose how much storage you want built into the base:
No drawers — the cleanest, lowest-cost option. Best if you already have wardrobe and drawer space.
2 drawers — both drawers on one side of the bed. Ideal when the other side sits against a wall.
"4 drawers — two drawers on each side, giving maximum storage. Perfect for storing bedding, seasonal clothes and pillows without a separate dresser.
Tip: If you need a European Super King with maximum drawers, two single (90x200) divan bases placed together give you 4 drawers on each side — 8 drawers in total — while forming one 180x200 bed.

Not sure whether a divan is right for you? Here is how it compares to the other styles we stock:
Divan vs Panel bed: A panel bed uses a gas-lift base (the whole mattress lifts up) instead of drawers. Choose a divan for drawer storage and lower cost; choose panel for maximum under-bed space.
Divan vs Sleigh bed: A sleigh bed has a dramatic curved headboard and footboard. It is more of a statement piece; the divan is cleaner and more practical for storage.
