Westin Hotels & Resorts is putting rest at the centre of travel as World Sleep Day returns on 13 March 2026, rolling out sleep-focused wellness experiences across its properties in the Asia Pacific, excluding China.
Guided by Westin’s Sleep Well pillar, the brand continues its long-standing commitment to helping travellers recover from the demands of travel through intentional rest, wellness rituals and immersive experiences designed to support better sleep.
For more than a decade, Westin has built its wellness philosophy around three core pillars:
| Westin Well-Being Pillars | Focus |
|---|---|
| Sleep Well | Restorative sleep experiences and sleep-enhancing amenities |
| Eat Well | Nutritious menus designed to support wellness and energy |
| Move Well | Fitness, movement and outdoor activities for healthy routines |
At the heart of the sleep experience is Westin’s Heavenly® Bed, featuring custom mattresses, plush pillows and premium linens. Guests can also enjoy sleep-supporting touches such as the Sleep Well Lavender Balm and a Sleep Well Menu offering superfoods designed to encourage better rest.
According to Cristiano Rinaldi, Chief Lodging Product & Services Officer for Marriott International in Asia Pacific excluding China, Westin views sleep as a core part of well-being rather than simply a nightly routine.
