The new trend of vacationing in hotels is gaining popularity: what it's all about
Recently, a trend known as "sleep tourism" has been gaining popularity. Sleep tourism involves going on vacation and selecting accommodations or services specifically designed to promote restful sleep.
Travelers opt for sleep-focused vacations and book packages tailored to improving their sleep quality. According to the publication NewsBytes, this trend gained traction during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The pandemic compelled hospitality establishments such as hotels and resorts to offer specialized packages aimed at enhancing sleep quality. Spas and wellness centers have also followed suit, providing guests with therapeutic massages, meditation sessions, and specially curated diets.
Experts suggest that people are increasingly seeking ways to break away from their hectic schedules and prioritize their health and well-being. They anticipate that this trend will continue to grow, potentially leading to a significant shift globally towards prioritizing wellness.
Some hotels offering such unique vacation experiences include Park Hyatt in New York and Cadogan in London. Last year, Park Hyatt in New York introduced the Bryte Restorative Sleep Suite, a 900-square-foot room equipped with Bryte mattresses featuring 90 smart pillows that adjust to body pressure, climate control, and sleep tracking capabilities. London's Cadogan Hotel provides a "sleep concierge" service offering sleep-inducing meditation recordings, a variety of pillows, weighted blankets, bedtime tea, and more.
Furthermore, the Mandarin Oriental in Geneva offers sleep programs, partnering with CENAS, a private medical sleep clinic in Switzerland, to analyze clients' sleep patterns over a three-day period to identify potential sleep issues. Additionally, the Zedwell London hotel focuses entirely on sleep, featuring rooms with advanced soundproofing technology.
