Forget the Minibar: Luxury Hotels Are Stocking Rooms With Beauty Products

The minibar is no longer about champagne and chocolate truffles. Across the world’s most luxurious hotels, a new kind of in-room indulgence is taking shape. For today’s wellness-minded traveler, these in-room beauty products are as essential as turndown service, offering curated self-care rituals without leaving the suite. Here are the top hotels in the U.S. leading the trend.
