In-Room Sensory Kits for Luxury Hotels
Help hotel guests settle, unwind and enjoy a more restful first night.
The First Night Effect
When guests sleep in a new environment, the brain doesn’t fully switch off.
Sleep researchers call this the First Night Effect. One half of the brain stays slightly more alert, leading to lighter, less restorative sleep.
Even in a beautifully designed room, the first night can feel unfamiliar.
Soothr helps ease that transition, allowing guests to settle, unwind and rest more deeply.
Helping Guests Settle Into Deep Rest
Soothr sensory kits are designed to ease the mind and calm the senses, helping guests relax more quickly in an unfamiliar space.
Through gentle scent, tactile elements and subtle sensory cues, each kit creates a calming ritual that helps guests settle into their surroundings and prepare for a more restful night.

Designed Around the Guest Experience
Soothr is designed to become part of the guest journey, not simply another item left in the room.
From the moment a guest arrives, the experience of a hotel stay is shaped by thoughtful details.
Soothr creates a thoughtful sensory ritual that gives guests permission to pause, unwind and settle into their surroundings.
Whether placed in a bedroom, presented as part of turndown or included as a welcome gesture, Soothr offers a simple way to add something memorable to the stay.
The SOOTHR app extends that experience digitally, with guided relaxation, calming soundscapes and simple wellbeing content guests can access throughout their stay.
In-Room Welcome
A thoughtful arrival gesture that immediately sets the tone for a more considered stay.
Turndown
A sensory addition to the evening that invites guests to slow down and create their own moment of calm.
Premium Suites
An elevated touch that complements the experience of a luxury room or suite.
Explore our thinking on guest sleep, sensory wellbeing and the small details that can help guests settle into their stay.
