A hotel chain is trialling a 'snore absorption' room, including soundproofing and a specially-designed pillow to help guests sleep.Plaza is testing the special room at one of its hotels in London, using different forms of technology and new ideasWalls have been soundproofed, using eggbox-style foam to reduce noise reverberating in the room, while a sound-absorbing headboard will muffle any echo from snores.An anti-snoring pillow has been placed on the bed, as well as a device which aims to make people sleep on their sides, as lying flat on your back often produces snoring.The room is being trialled at Crowne Plaza London The City for one week, as well as in nine hotels across Europe and the Middle East.Hotel spokesman Tom Rowntree said: "We've all been there. Lying wide awake at three o'clock in the morning burying our head under a pillow to drown out our partner's snoring."There's nothing worse than being kept up all night and that's why we've designed this specific snore absorption room to help give our guests a great night's sleep."A survey of 1,000 people carried out for the hotel by Lightspeed found half of couples complain about a partner's snoring spoiling their holiday.Source: orange.com
