Hilton and Calm Launch Wellness Partnership

As of this month, 2400+ hotels with Hilton’s Connected Room Experience technology will have access to Calm, with no subscription required. In a study conducted by McKinsey Future of Wellness Report, 82% of U.S. consumers cited wellness as a top priority, with sleep ranked as the second-highest unmet need. Through this partnership, guests will have access to Calm’s calming soundscapes, mindfulness exercises, guided meditations and Sleep Stories from their in-room TV, allowing them to prioritize rest and restoration while they stay with Hilton. 

“At Hilton, we believe every stay should offer an opportunity to feel better—mind and body—while you’re with us and beyond,” said Amanda Al-Masri, vice president, wellness, Hilton. “Our partnership with Calm is an exciting step in redefining travel by providing guests with accessible tools to relax, reset, and feel invigorated throughout their stay. By weaving mindfulness into the stay experience, we’re empowering guests to recharge and make the most of why they came, so they leave feeling refreshed and ready for whatever comes next.”

With Hilton’s Connected Room technology, guests can personalize their stay experience, from adjusting room settings to streaming their preferred content. The addition of Calm’s resources is just the next step in Hilton’s innovation to redefine the guest experience. For Calm, this partnership builds upon the brand’s commitment to reducing stress, improving sleep and sharpening mental clarity. Through this partnership, travelers everywhere will have access to the wellness app’s content. 

“Travel isn’t just about the destination– it’s about how you feel while you’re there,” said Fergal Walker, vice president of partnerships, Calm. “By integrating Calm into Hilton’s Connected Room Experience, we’re meeting travelers where they are with mindfulness and sleep content they’ll enjoy – whether dealing with jet lag, prepping for a big meeting, or unwinding on a family vacation. Together with Hilton, we’re making it easier for people to find moments of peace and restoration, even when they’re away from home.”

We discovered the Calm app several years ago and have been using it to relax and go to sleep faster since our first download.
