Two Critical Problems

The hotel industry faces two major challenges. The first is well-known, while the second remains largely overlooked.

1. A Sea of Sameness

Hotels are increasingly commoditized.

2. An Overlooked
Guest Experience Issue

Unprotected hotel bedding contains millions of dust mites. During the night, guests inhale the digestive enzymes of these tiny creatures, triggering stuffy noses that negatively impact their hotel experience.

The AllerEase® Hotel Program

Enhanced Guest Experience

Hypoallergenic bedding

Unprotected hotel bedding harbors millions of dust mites. Throughout the night, guests breathe in the digestive enzymes these tiny creatures produce, resulting in stuffy noses and poor sleep. Specially woven encasements for pillows, mattresses, and comforters safeguard guests from this leading allergy trigger.

HEPA air purifiers

HEPA air purifiers efficiently eliminate airborne microscopic particulates like dust, pet dander, pollen, mold spores, bacteria, and even viruses like COVID-19, ensuring peace of mind for your guests. With a minimal daily operating cost of about 50 cents, providing HEPA air purifiers is an excellent amenity to upsell guests to a premium room category.

The AllerEase® Advantage

Stand out from the competition with AllerEase®—your hotel’s pathway to increased occupancy and guest loyalty. The AllerEase® Program equips hotels with the essential resources to quickly implement a hypoallergenic room program, creating a profitable opportunity to rise above the ‘Sea of Sameness.
