The Global
Standard for
Restorative
Travel.

Each tier guarantees a different level of scientific verification and comfort. Here is exactly what you can expect when booking: No Badge (Unverified): We do not yet have sufficient data regarding the property's sleep environment. You can expect standard hospitality services and general tourism know-how, but your rest quality is not verified or guaranteed by our algorithm. Bronze Badge (Foundational Awareness): The property is actively engaged in sleep tourism and utilizes our Sleep Grade algorithm. They know exactly what factors to control to improve guest sleep quality. You can expect a strong awareness of sleep wellness, knowledgeable staff, and a foundational commitment to your rest. Silver Badge (Verified Infrastructure): We have evaluated this property and verified it has the correct attitude and physical infrastructure to provide an optimized sleep environment. While it lacks continuous real-time data tracking, you can be highly confident this property will deliver a superior, thoroughly checked sleep experience. Gold Badge (The Ultimate Sleep Sanctuary): Please note: Gold Badges are awarded to specific, individual rooms, not entire properties (the overall property holds a Silver status). When booking a Gold room, you can expect absolutely perfect conditions. The hotel is committed to providing a guaranteed sleep environment from beginning to end, actively optimizing all 14 dimensions—including exact bed comfort, thermal stability, blackout lighting, and absolute silence—through real-time data flow.

Your verified clinical score directly dictates your badge eligibility. Properties scoring up to an 8.0 will either remain in a "Score-Only" status or earn the foundational Bronze Badge. Properties scoring between 8.0 and 9.0 are required to take the Silver Badge path. The elite Gold Badge path is reserved strictly for specific rooms scoring between 9.0 and 10.0.

No, you cannot skip levels. Every badge tier requires the successful completion of the previous badge path to move forward (e.g., you must meet the Bronze baseline requirements before earning Silver). However, to fast-track your certification, you can complete these badge paths concurrently.

If a property scores up to an 8.0 but has not completed the required baseline assessments, it receives a "Score-Only" status. We do not publish failing scores immediately; instead, we provide a detailed diagnostic report and a 30 to 60-day grace period for you to fix your acoustic or environmental shortcomings before re-evaluation for a badge.

Your score is calculated using our proprietary 14-dimension algorithm. Hotels are graded out of a maximum of 100 points across critical categories: Hardware & Bedding (mattress and linens), Acoustic Control (soundproofing and HVAC noise), Thermal & Atmospheric (air quality and thermostats), Sensory Environment (light pollution), and Psychology & Amenities.

No, absolutely not. Every badge tier has a completely free path to certification. The Bronze Badge is earned free of charge by passing our online Self-Assessment. The Silver Badge path can be completed for free by using our online assessment tools and uploading documented proof of your room conditions. The Gold Badge is completely free to acquire through our standard software integration and validation process.

To maintain the strict integrity of our global standards, certifications must be periodically renewed. The Bronze Badge is valid for 2 years, and the Silver Badge is valid for 1 year. Because it is our absolute highest tier, the Gold Badge requires a continuous, real-time online connection (via your hotel's BMS or IoT sensors) to actively monitor and validate your room conditions, ensuring its active status.

Corporate travel managers and individual travelers who highly value a good night's sleep actively filter and select hotels based on their specific badge level. By earning a badge, you guarantee your property meets their strict requirements, allowing you to easily win high-value corporate travel contracts. Furthermore, displaying a verified badge allows you to seamlessly transition to Attribute-Based Selling (charging premiums for guaranteed sleep rooms) and comfortably command a $20 to $30 overall nightly premium.
