• Each Bryte mattress has 90 intelligent cushions that sense, adjust to, and relieve the body's pressure points. The mattress also controls the climate, tracks and provides sleep statistics and insights that can be accessed on your phone, and is able to respond to the unique needs of couples.

The idea for the new sleep suites at the Park Hyatt New York took shape at a time when the hotel was reimagining its wellness story, in April 2021, as it reopened following a 376-day closure due to the pandemic. The concept revolved around a partnership with A.I. mattress startup Bryte. 

“The partnership with Bryte came at the perfect time post-pandemic,” general manager Laurent Ebzant says. “Focusing on the attributes of a room that has a prime sleeping area was a point of focus for us.”

The five-star hotel unveiled the suites in January 2022. The Bryte mattresses are the hallmark of them - each one has 90 intelligent cushions that sense, adjust to, and relieve the body's pressure points. The mattress also controls the climate, tracks and provides sleep statistics and insights that can be accessed on your phone, and is able to respond to the unique needs of couples.

Bryte mattresses can also be found in the rooms of the Carillon Miami, the Four Seasons Beverly Hills, and other hotels across the country.

Having previously owned an organic textile company, which made fabric goods like sheets and bedding, she says she understands just how personal sleep really is.
