Six Senses Helps in the Quest for Quality Shut-eye

Poor quality mattresses, low thread-count bed linen (gasp!), noisy neighbors, the list of disturbances that can interrupt your sleep on 'relaxing' getaways can be somewhat... disturbing.

Today more than ever we're spending more time, money and energy into seeking quality sleep. Prioritizing a good night's rest is at the top of our list, and many others, which is why many hoteliers are offering amenities to help guests in their quest for slumber.

Six Senses is one of those brands and the recently-launched program, Sleep With Six Senses, aims to do just that. Guests will first fill out an online questionnaire that allows a dedicated 'sleep ambassador' to understand the relationship that a guest has with sleep and based on this information, each sleep ambassador provides their guests with tools and tips on how to improve the quality of sleep. Sleep ambassadors have excelled in a training program created by a pgroup of leaders at Six Senses under the leadership and guidance of Dr. Breus, internationally renowned sleep doctor. They fine-tune the guest room prior to arrival to ensure all preferences are noted and prepare the guest bedroom each evening to ensure optimum sleep conditions. They are also on call each day to assist and provide support to guests.

Items that have been carefully selected and tested over a period of 24 months by a team of Six Senses experts include handmade mattresses by Naturalmat which are made from 100 percent natural materials and sourced from sustainable resources and are fully biodegradable; Hanse organic pillows and duvets which feature natural breathing and cooling zones to ensure the perfect temperature during sleep; and high quality organic cotton sheets are made by Beaumont & Brown. Guests who wish to learn more about improving their quality of sleep can upgrade their sleep experience with a package that includes a Sleep Bag, Valley Forge moisture-wicking linens and a Withings Aura Sleep Tracker/App. The results from the sleep app will be reviewed with a Six Senses Integrated Wellness Practitioner during a 30-minute personal consultation. Based on the results, the wellness practitioner may recommend a personalized program of spa treatments and activities to help improve sleep. The Sleep Bag contains a selection of specially developed and sourced sleep aids including bamboo fiber pajamas, eye mask, ear plugs, nose strips, nasal neti pot and jasmine sleep spritzer. There is the choice of a bathroom amenity from The Organic Pharmacy and the Six Senses Little Book of Wellness which includes a worry journal section to jot down thoughts that may keep guests up at night. The bag also includes a thumb drive loaded with Six Senses videos providing a wealth of sleep suggestions and professional guidance for better sleep featuring Dr. Breus. In advance of departure each guest is provided with sleep tips and details on how to purchase any of the products they used during their stay to prolong their quest for a good night’s rest when home.
