Would you book a night in a 'Snore Absorption Room'?

A new 'Snore Absorption Room,' currently in the trial phase, aims to cure sleepless nights for snorers and their partners. (iStock)Snorers, and partners of snorers, rejoice! The Crowne Plaza hotel chain is experimenting with a "Snore Absorption Room" meant to cure your sleepless nights.

The room uses what the company calls "proven technology" to help reduce "the dreaded, repetitive nasal noise" that regularly robs some couples of their sleep.

The technology includes:

• Sound proofing on walls.
• A special sound-absorbing headboard that helps muffle the echo within the room.
• An anti-snoring bed that encourages snorers to sleep on their sides or upright.
• An anti-snoring pillow that opens the airways and stiffens the upper palate (which vibrates during snoring).
• A white noise machine.

Crowne Plaza decided to try the rooms after research revealed that more than half of UK couples lose between one and five hours of sleep a night because of the snoring and shuffling of their partners.

Similar rooms are being tested in Crowne Plaza hotels across Europe and the Middle East.

Would you book a night in a "Snore Absorption Room"? Is your partner's snoring robbing you of sleep? If yes, how do you deal with it? (If not, how did you get so lucky?!)
