Dear colleagues, should I literally translate "beds" or is there a better acceptable word in hotels' terminology? "Sleeping places for 310 guests"?
XXX Hotel är 4-stjärningt, med 193 hotellrum och totalt 310 bäddar.

"Beds" is fine. I don't know of any other way to say it. The sentence leaves us no way of calculating how many guests the hotel can accommodate...
