Sometimes it is hard to believe that the main purpose of hotels is to provide comfort and comfort. Uncomfortable beds, loud coolers, loudly closed doors, and the sound of the high -end guests of the upper floors can make the nighttime an unpleasant challenge.
Dr. Rebecca Robbins, Assistant Professor of Harvard Medical School and Hospital and Women Researchers in Boston, understands the importance of sleep. His research focuses on making behavioral changes to improve the quality of sleep and health of human daytime; So it’s not surprising that he is also interested in the experience of sleeping in hotels.
In an article published in 2008 in the journal Tourism and Hospitality Research, Dr. Robbins and his colleagues showed that one of the three travelers is satisfied with the quality of their sleep. However, sleep satisfaction during the trip was one of the important factors in the general satisfaction of the guests.
With the growing popularity of tourism, sleep and increased awareness of the importance of sleep quality, Dr. Rebecca Robbins is now working with the Hilton Hotel Company as a sleep expert. He plays a role in developing sleep upgrades and helps guests have a good experience by optimizing the bedrooms and offering sleep recreation courses.
How to feel comfortable in the new space?
Dr. Rebecca Robbins says:
The fact is that in an unfamiliar environment, it is essentially more difficult to find peace.
At home, our body becomes more comfortable; But in new environments such as hotels, our brain is in alert for new sounds or odors and examines the environment as an unfamiliar atmosphere.
