In a bid to enhance guest well-being, Elite Palace Hotel is expanding its wellness offerings by introducing in-room yoga sessions. The initiative, a collaboration between former figure skating star and yoga instructor Sofie Roberg, hotel specialist Gympak, and tech company Nonius, allows guests to practise yoga from the comfort of their rooms via their in-room TVs.

Designed specifically for hotel guests, the sessions have been developed by Roberg, a finalist in Talang 2022, who brings her expertise in movement and mindfulness to the experience. “We want to provide our guests with a holistic experience where they can relax and take care of both body and mind without leaving the room,” she explains. “By offering yoga directly through the TV, we make it easy and accessible for everyone.”
Wellness at the Touch of a Button
The technological backbone of this initiative comes from Nonius, which, together with Gympak, has integrated the yoga sessions seamlessly into the hotel’s interactive TV system. Guests can now access both mental and physical wellness training with just a few clicks. Jone Sølvik, CEO of Gympak, describes the project as “a unique and wonderful collaboration,” underscoring the growing demand for accessible wellness solutions in the hospitality industry.

Elite Palace Hotel is no stranger to promoting well-being. Its Vana Spa, one of Stockholm’s largest spa facilities, already offers in-person yoga classes alongside an array of treatments designed to enhance relaxation and rejuvenation. “We are pleased to expand our wellness offerings and provide our guests with even more opportunities to take care of their well-being during their stay,” says Jessica Carlde, General Manager of Elite Palace Hotel.
Meeting the Growing Demand for Wellness in Hospitality
The initiative reflects a broader trend in travel. A recent survey by McKinsey found that 58% of American consumers now prioritise health and well-being more than they did a year ago, a sentiment echoed globally as travellers seek hotels that support a balanced lifestyle.
By integrating wellness and technology, Elite Palace Hotel continues to lead the way in providing guests with a more holistic and rejuvenating stay-one that extends beyond traditional hospitality and embraces the growing focus on personal well-being.
