Novotel welcomes sleep expert, bestselling author and keynote speaker Olivia Arezzolo to the Novotel 37 Collective, a group of voices championing the idea that small, consistent improvements can transform everyday wellbeing.
Olivia Arezzolo, sleep expert, bestselling author and keynote speaker
In a world that rarely slows down, sleep has quietly become one of modern life's greatest luxuries.Longer workdays, brighter screens, and endless to-do lists have turned rest into something many people chase but rarely master. Yet sleep remains the foundation of everything: how we think, how we feel, and how we move through the world.
Today, Novotel is placing sleep back where it belongs – at the centre of everyday wellbeing. As part of its newly revealed purpose-led platform, Longevity Everyday, the global hotel brand is exploring the four pillars it sees as central to everyday wellbeing: Eat, Sleep, Move and Meet. Starting in March 2026, Novotel turns its focus to its sleep experience, with a mission to help travellers experience better nights and brighter days.
Guiding the journey is Olivia Arezzolo, Australia's leading sleep expert, bestselling author and international keynote speaker, who joins the Novotel 37 Collective as the brand's Sleep Expert1. Together, they are setting out to make one idea beautifully simple: better sleep is achievable, one small step at a time.
The Power of Small ImprovementsLongevity Everyday reflects Novotel's belief that a longer, healthier life isn't built on dramatic change, but on small, intentional habits that compound over time. Built around the four pillars of Eat, Sleep, Move and Meet, the brand's new vision aims at encouraging guests worldwide to make everyday choices that support longer, fuller and happier lives, at home and in hotels. Sleep sits at the heart of this philosophy.
“Longevity Everyday is about progress over perfection,” says Jean-Yves Minet, Global Brand President, Novotel.
“Sleep is foundational. It is the most evidence-backed investment anyone can make in their health, and Olivia Arezzolo has spent a career proving what's possible when people get it right. Now she's bringing that expertise to Novotel, helping make better sleep simple and within everyone's reach.”
Launching globally in March, Novotel is unveiling a new sleep-focused chapter of its Longevity Everyday platform, bringing together expert guidance and practical experiences designed to support guests throughout their stay and beyond, reinforcing the brand's commitment to better sleep.
Meet Novotel's Sleep ExpertTo guide this journey, Novotel has partnered with Olivia Arezzolo, one of the world's most recognised voices in the sleep space. With more than 500 media appearances, hundreds of international keynote talks and a bestselling book published across multiple countries, Arezzolo has become a trusted voice for people seeking practical ways to improve their sleep.
Her work blends deep academic expertise across psychology, sleep science, physiology and nutrition, with a grounded understanding of modern life's challenges: jet lag, digital overload, restless nights and packed schedules.But what sets her apart is her approachability.
“My goal is to turn sleep science into simple steps that are actionable, achievable and accessible for all,” explains Olivia Arezzolo. "It's not about being perfect – rather, focusing on progression, just getting 1% better. Small consistent changes over time for meaningful, measurable improvements in sleep, energy, clarity and longevity. Sleep isn't a nice to have – it's a biological necessity, and when we get it right, we truly thrive.” “Together with Novotel, we're helping travellers build better habits so they can master their nights, and ultimately, master their days.”
Novotel's Sleep Quest: A Year-Long Journey to Better NightsTo kick off Novotel's focus on sleep, the brand is launching the Sleep Quest, an immersive storytelling journey guided by Arezzolo.
Over the course of a year, three 'Sleep Apprentices', each representing a different type of traveller including a busy working parent, a frequent business traveller and an always-on adventurer, will work with Olivia to transform their sleep habits through small, practical changes.
Their journeys will unfold across Novotel's global social media channels, offering a real-world look at how manageable shifts from evening wind-down rituals to circadian-friendly routines can create meaningful improvements over time.The series brings sleep science out of the laboratory and into everyday life.
Designing Hotels for Better Sleep
For Novotel, sleep has always been central to the hotel experience. With this focus on the Sleep pillar of Longevity Everyday, the brand is taking that commitment further.
Across Novotel hotels worldwide, guests will encounter thoughtfully designed touches that encourage restorative rest, including:
new, elevated bedding with soft and firm options
calming sleep ritual menus offering relaxation techniques and wind-down guidance
in-room tips and digital content developed with Olivia Arezzolo
guidance on light exposure and sound environments to support natural circadian rhythms
Together, these elements turn the hotel room into more than a place to sleep. It becomes a space intentionally designed to help guests reset, recharge and wake feeling restored. Beyond the stay itself, Novotel also aims to help guests carry these rituals, the habits and experiences beyond the hotel into everyday life.
For those who fall in love with the sleep experience, Novotel's curated retail collection allows guests to recreate it at home, with everything from bedding to the bed itself available via the Novotel Store.
The Growing Novotel 37 Collective
Arezzolo joins the Novotel 37 Collective, a growing community of voices united by a shared belief: small improvements, repeated daily, create extraordinary long-term change. The number 37 reflects the mathematical principle that improving by just 1% each day leads to exponential growth over time – 37 times better by year's end.
Each represents one dimension of living well, from movement and nutrition to connection and rest.
The Future of Restful Travel
As travellers increasingly seek experiences that help them recover and recharge, Novotel believes the future of hospitality lies not only in where we go, but in how we feel when we return home.Because while many wellness trends come and go, sleep remains universal.
It is the quiet force behind our energy, our clarity, our resilience and our joy.And through Longevity Everyday, Novotel is inviting travellers everywhere to rediscover something simple, powerful and deeply human: a better night's sleep.

The partnership aims to facilitate and mobilise up to US$1.5 billion worth of sustainable infrastructure investments and financing opportunities across Asia Pacific, focusing on projects developed by Keppel and invested in by its private funds.
Global asset manager and operator Keppel Ltd. (“Keppel”) announced today that the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (“AIIB”) has committed US$75 million to Keppel Private Credit Fund III (“KPCF III”), along with a co-investment sleeve of up to US$50 million. This brings AIIB’s total commitment to up to US$125 million (S$159 million), boosting KPCF III’s total Funds under Management (“FUM”) to over US$561 million (S$725 million).
This marks AIIB’s first investment under the strategic partnership agreement signed in June 2025 with Keppel, through its fund management and investment platforms. The partnership aims to facilitate and mobilise up to US$1.5 billion worth of sustainable infrastructure investments and financing opportunities across Asia Pacific, focusing on projects developed by Keppel and invested in by its private funds.
Ms Christina Tan, CEO of Fund Management and Chief Investment Officer, Keppel, said, “Rapid urbanisation and digital transformation are reshaping the Asia Pacific region, driving infrastructure needs in excess of US$1.7 trillion annually through 2030[1]. Meeting this demand at scale requires visionary partnerships that can mobilise both capital and expertise efficiently to deliver resilient, future-ready solutions in the face of climate and resource challenges.
“AIIB has been a longstanding partner with Keppel across multiple fund strategies and asset classes. AIIB’s commitment to KPCF III is a strong endorsement of our institutional-grade platform and differentiated private credit strategy. Building on our collaboration with AIIB, we aim to help narrow the infrastructure gap in Asia Pacific while continuing to deliver attractive risk-adjusted returns to our investors.”
“Building on our strong and established strategic partnership, AIIB’s investment in KPCF III underscores our continued commitment to working with Keppel in advancing Asia-Pacific region’s transition towards a more sustainable and low-carbon future,” said Kim-See Lim, Chief Investment Officer, Public Sector (Region 1) & Financial Institutions and Funds (Global) Clients, AIIB. “This collaboration reflects AIIB’s broader mission of mobilising capital and fostering partnerships that deliver long-term impact for our Members and communities.”
KPCF III is the third vintage in Keppel’s private credit fund series, following Pierfront Capital Mezzanine Fund and Keppel-Pierfront Private Credit Fund, which AIIB had also backed in 2021. With AIIB’s latest commitment, KPCF III has already raised 170% of the third-party capital achieved by its predecessor fund, underscoring the strong investor confidence in Keppel’s differentiated private credit strategy.
Keppel’s private credit strategy provides bespoke loans to companies with defensive infrastructure-like operating businesses, across a wide range of real asset sectors, including renewable energy, transportation, telecommunications, logistics, social infrastructure and other core infrastructure in Asia Pacific. To date, approximately US$260 million under KPCF III has been deployed across core infrastructure, renewables, data centres and social infrastructure projects in the region. Since 2016, Keppel’s private credit fund series has deployed over US$1 billion across 34 investments. More than half of these investments have been fully exited, delivering an attractive average return profile in the low- to mid-teens.
The above-mentioned development is not expected to have any material impact on the earnings per share and net tangible assets per share of Keppel Ltd. for the current financial year.
