Realizing that much of its clientele is wellness-focused, Wong said Ariva offers a variety of spaces and services that best meet their needs to maintain their routines while on the road. These include a peaceful zen garden, a “luxe” yoga and cycling studio and an expansive fitness center offering individual and group classes.

Wellness is a priority for luxury hotel guests. Whether guests are traveling for work or play, “we believe well-being should always be front and center.”

But well-being does not always mean spas and yoga. At Ariva, it boils down to having the comforts of home, Wong said.

“As wonderful as luxurious hotel stays were in my own business trips to Las Vegas, I missed the simple joy of making a simple [and healthy] breakfast for myself, having more space, and the feeling of staying at home,” she said.

All units at Ariva have high-end kitchens.

Wellness also needs to extend to the various aspects of a hotel property.
