"Wellness tourism has been on the rise for years. In fact, the 2025 Global Wellness Economy Monitor reported a new market peak of $6.8 trillion. And while retreats are a significant driver, more and more of us want health and wellbeing integrated into our regular travel experience."
""Wellbeing is no longer resigned to the spa, but has become an ecosystem with touchpoints that span across the entire aspect of a stay, and guests expect this to extend to their bedrooms too," Aimee Hodgkin, hotel curation and partnerships director at Mr & Mrs Smith, says."
"In the last few months, I've opened mini bars to find CBD drops and sleep patches, or pulled out an LED red light mask from my bedside drawer, or worked out with a weights trolley or a Peloton bike, perhaps followed by an IV recovery drip on the sofa, or eased my muscles in a steam pod."
""Gone are the days when a holiday or trip automatically equals a pause from health routines."
Hotels are upgrading wellness amenities beyond small gyms and spa-only experiences. In-room options now include curated weights trolleys, Peloton bikes, LED red light masks, CBD drops, sleep patches, IV recovery drips, and steam pods. Wellness tourism continues to grow, with the 2025 Global Wellness Economy Monitor reporting a $6.8 trillion market peak. Guests increasingly want wellbeing integrated throughout the entire stay, including the bedroom. Health routines are no longer automatically paused during travel, and hotels are investing heavily in in-room wellness to match this shift in expectations.
