Luxury experience: massage chair in the hotel room

For your guests, a hotel stay is the perfect time for total rest and relaxation. Not surprisingly, guests look for some luxury during their hotel visit. Komoder offers the answer to the demand for extra comfort. Dessa Mineva, manager of the Komoder branch in Rotterdam: "We are at the centre of the experience of relaxation and comfort. A massage chair works wonders when your guests are mentally or physically exhausted. But a massage is also great to start your day or if you want to completely unwind. It is an added value to put these chairs in your hotel."

Komoder overwhelmed the European market 12 years ago with their wellness-enhancing and therapeutic massage chairs. Dessa Mineva says: "We are committed to providing the right quality and service every day. This is precisely why we want to respond to the need for more luxury in the hotel sector. Our massage chairs are ready to be installed. Now it's up to the hoteliers."

Those who book a hotel expect a little extra relaxation and luxury than at home. Twenty minutes in a massage chair are enough for a full massage experience. "It offers relaxation and your stress ebbs away," says Dessa. "The positive effects of such a chair on your immune system and physical complaints make you less likely to get sick. In addition, feelings of restlessness and stress are greatly reduced. And that is exactly what you expect during your hotel visit, isn't it?"

A Komoder massage chair offers extra luxury in a hotel. "Some hotel rooms have a jacuzzi or a sauna in the room. The guest then pays a bit more than for a normal room. Those who are on holiday or arrive at their room after a long journey treat themselves to that little extra. So why shouldn't hotels offer massage chairs in the room? Today, we see them mostly in the wellness area of the hotel. Guests sometimes book the wellness especially for the massage chair. That indicates that they are willing to pay more for such a chair in the room," Dessa explains.

The big advantage of a massage chair? It does not require other people. Not insignificant in times of staff shortages. "You don't need to train staff to give massages. That saves time, but also money. A massage chair is a one-off purchase that requires maintenance a few times at most. In addition, privacy is fully guaranteed during treatment in the massage chair. You don't have to undress and can be fully massaged in one go," Dessa adds. "It's perfect for the privacy, tranquillity and comfort guests are looking for in a hotel room."■
