# Anti-Screen Hotel Suites The Check Out Suite at Hotel Bellora Challenges Guests to Stay Offline By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2019-01-29 | World Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-check-out-suite References: [prexamples](https://www.prexamples.com/2019/01/a-hotel-in-sweden-is-offering-free-rooms-to-people-who-can-stay-off-social-media/) & [hotelbellora.se](https://www.hotelbellora.se/) The Check Out Suite at [Hotel Bellora](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emma-sleep-hotel) in Gothenburg, Sweden sets itself apart with a unique premise: the room rate is determined by the time that guests spend on social media. While there are now smartphone apps and built-in features for mobile phones to help people manage their screen time, the hotel suite relies on The Skärmfri (Screen-free) smart lamp for calculating how long one spends on social media. The smart lamp is able to do this when a device connects to the room's WiFi and monitors time spend on Snapchat, [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sleepagotchi), YouTube, [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grey-scale-browser-extensions) and other social sites. Initially, like most lamps, the smart lighting system emits a white glow, which turns red after the recommended 30-minute period for recreational phone use has finished. With this system, Hotel Bellora notes that it is "converting screen time into a currency that rewards a healthy digital life." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.6/10 - Popularity: 66% | Activity: 93% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [World](https://www.trendhunter.com/world) > [Travel](https://www.trendhunter.com/travel) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Screen Time Tracking:** The Check Out Suite introduces the trend of tracking screen time to encourage healthier digital habits. - **Personalized Pricing:** The unique premise of the Check Out Suite offers personalized pricing based on guests' time spent on social media, showcasing the trend of customized experiences. - **Smart Lighting:** The Skärmfri smart lamp represents the trend of integrating smart technology into traditional household objects to enhance user experiences. ### Who This Affects Most - **Hospitality:** Hotels can embrace the trend of personalized pricing and screen time tracking to attract health-conscious guests and offer unique experiences. - **Technology:** The smart lamp technology in the Check Out Suite indicates opportunities for innovation in creating new products and services for screen time management. - **Wellness:** The Check Out Suite promotes a healthier digital life, aligning with the trend of wellness-focused solutions and experiences in various industries. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Miniature Phone Beds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phone-sleep.md) - [Digital Dependency Awareness Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digital-dependency.md) - [Playful Digital Detox Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheaum-concept.md) - [Smartphone Addiction Meditation Lanterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digital-detox-device.md) - [Smartphone Detox Lockboxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smartphone-lock-box.md) - [Sea-Inspired Anti-Smartphone Cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smartphonefasting-sour.md) - [Anti-Distraction CBT-Powered Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inscreen-app.md) - [Mindful Low-Tech Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mudita-kompakt.md) - [Sleep-Focused Hotel Rooms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sleep-lab-rooms.md)
