Ovolo Hotels has teamed up with cruelty-free beauty brand The Body Shop to create self-care experiences for guests to mark National Wellness Month.

The two have collaborated on a Wellness Package that prioritises a luxury sleep experience, featuring an exclusive Body Shop Sleep Deep pack, T2 sleep tea sachets, as well as sleep tips from the European Sleep Centre. Available throughout the month of August (Tues-Sat) at Ovolo Woolloomooloo, Ovolo South Yarra, Ovolo The Valley and Ovolo Nishi, the package also includes a $150 on-site dining experience to encourage guests to try the brand’s plant-based menus.

“At Ovolo we love giving our guests unique experiences which connect with them emotionally, and this is no different,” said Ovolo Hotels Group Director of Marketing, Stephen Howard.

Ovolo and The Body Shop are also introducing an experiential guest experience at Ovolo Woolloomooloo. The Sleep Deep Experience, which runs from August 11–14, aims to provide guests with the tools to sleep better using The Body Shop’s four-step sleep routine.

The experience includes a personalised sleep consultation with renowned sleep expert Olivia Arezzolo, a calming sound-bath meditation by Sydney-based Field of Sound, and a ‘sleep-enhancing’ dinner designed by Ovolo’s chefs in partnership with Olivia.



“Sleep is so important for our bodies; it helps us stay mentally and physically fit, can help reduce anxiety and depression and can help maintain healthy skin,” said Arezzolo.

“Science-based, straightforward solutions are needed, and that’s why I’m so excited to team up with The Body Shop to create this experience and launch the new Sleep Range. Not everyone can justify a sound bath to help them drift off every evening, but there are so many elements of this experience that you can recreate at home for the perfect night’s sleep, from a protein-rich dinner, to incorporating The Body Shops new Sleep Range into your evening routine.”

The Body Shop APAC Brand and Activism Director, Shannon Chrisp, said the initiative is about helping Australians to support their health and wellbeing by getting enough sleep.

“The European Sleep Centre has identified a link between a good quality night’s sleep and the benefits it has on our skin health,” she said.

“At The Body Shop, we know that prioritising your mind and body is a rebellious act of self care, and a body and mind in balance can take on the world. We’re excited to be working with Olivia and other experts to bring this immersive experience to life featuring our clinically proven Sleep range. The new Sleep Deep Experience is encouraging all Australians to think more about their sleep routine and take a moment for themselves.”
