10 Hotel Chains with the Best Bath and Beauty Products

Wanna travel the world? So fly high with WESTHILL CONSULTING, TRAVEL & TOURS!

There are plenty of reasons to care about what's on that hotel-room sink. When top-quality bath and beauty amenities are offered, travelers can leave their TSA-friendly bottles at home or take souvenir toiletries to go. Hotels, happily, have taken notice. More major chains have bid adieu to generic soaps and shampoos and upgraded their offerings in recent years. Now, complimentary brand-name skincare products, once limited to luxury lodgings and independent boutique hotels, can be found at less exclusive properties.

Here are 10 major hotel brands with superior bath and beauty products, along with tips on where to buy the products in case you're not traveling anytime soon.

TRYP by Wyndham

TRYP, Wyndham's midscale chain with more than 90 properties around the world, provides guests with the Zero Percent Collection from Gilchrist & Soames. It's a luxurious, earth-friendly product line formulated without sulfates, parabens, phthalates, and artificial colors, and it is not tested on animals. TRYP further boosts its eco-friendly cred by providing body wash, shampoo, and conditioner from the Zero Percent Collection in refillable dispensers installed in the showers of guest bathrooms. If you want to grab some travel-sized bottles to take home, however, just ask at the front desk. TRYP properties have a supply of small bottles of its Gilchrist & Soames products on hand, which are available for guests upon request.

Where to Buy: Shop for Gilchrist & Soames online.

W Hotels

W Hotels bathrooms have long been stocked with upmarket Bliss skincare products. And many W properties have Bliss-branded spas that incorporate the Bliss line in treatments, such as a facial with the line's Triple Oxygen+C Energizing Cream massaged into the skin. For a free Bliss fix, W guests can snap up the sink-side six: Bliss Fabulous Foaming Face Wash, Lemon+Sage Soapy Suds, Lemon+Sage Body Butter, Lemon+Sage Supershine Shampoo, Lemon+Sage Conditioning Rinse, and a Lemon+Sage Body Bar.

JW Marriott

In 2013, JW Marriott added an exclusive line of bath amenities created by London-based Aromatherapy Associates (the same brand available at Mandarin Oriental hotels). The line, which features all-natural ingredients like lavender, rosemary, ylang ylang, and almond oil, was specially designed to soothe harried travelers with calming scent. Aromatherapy Associates founder Geraldine Howard said she imagined "a traveler who had taken a red-eye flight and needed to be prepared for an important meeting or, on the other hand, someone who had just finished up a long day and wanted to relax," when she created the custom products.

Where to Buy: Marriott sells exclusive Aromatherapy Associates skincare and beauty products in its online store.

Joie de Vivre

Joie de Vivre provides complimentary bath and beauty products from Lather, an aromatherapeutic, cruelty-free skincare line made from natural ingredients, in guest rooms at most locations.

Onefinestay

Onefinestay lodgings in New York and Los Angeles are some of only a handful of properties to offer complimentary Kiehl's beauty and skincare products. Onefinestay isn't exactly a hotel. Branded the "unhotel," these digs are individually owned, yet managed by the same company. Rooms are appointed with amenities similar to what you would find in a standard hotel: fresh towels, clean linens, and toiletries. And since those toiletries are Kiehl's brand�"the popular New York City-based skincare line that features natural, high-quality ingredients�"Onefinestay earns a spot on this list.

Where to Buy: Buy Kiehl's online or visit your local Kiehl's store.

Fairmont
