Is anyone else feeling sluggish and exhausted ever since we lost an hour due to daylight savings? On top of losing an hour, studies show 80 percent of travelers have trouble sleeping when away from home and even at home, which can lead to fatigue, lower cognitive function and a weakened immune system.

 

Enter a hotel with a sleep-focused package.

 

InterContinental Los Angeles Downtown released a new Suite Dreams package to help guests overcome this lingering lethargic feeling and promote deeper, restful and more restorative sleep.

Every element of the Suite Dreams package was selected to create a sleep sanctuary that helps guests wake up refreshed and ready to go. Highlights include:

 

  • Melatonin Gummies: These gummies help regulate sleep cycles and promote deep, restorative sleep, especially if guests are visiting from a different time zone.
  • Hand-Knitted Weighted Blanket: This weighted blanket helps reduce anxiety while promoting sleep quality and comfort.
  • Silk Sleep Eye Mask: Enjoy a deeper, uninterrupted sleep with a silk eye mask to help block out light.
  • Jo Malone Lavender & Moonflower Pillow Mist: Lavender helps travelers feel relaxed and calm; spray this on your pillow to inhale the sleep-inducing scent as you drift off.
  • Personalized Wind-Down Note & Herbal Tea Selection: Choose from chamomile, valerian root and a specialty blend from a local brand to help with a good night’s sleep.
  • Custom Pillows: Whether you prefer hypo-allergenic, feather or foam pillows, InterContinental Los Angeles Downtown has you covered.

The study discovered the largest portion of cruisers are ages 25 to 44, making up 45 percent of all cruise bookers. Seniors, aged 55 and up, currently only account for 26 percent of cruise bookers. The platform theorizes this trend in younger cruisers is brought about by cruise lines’ increasing offering of family-friendly experiences and shorter cruises that can be enjoyed over a long weekend.
