The Purpose Hotel’s slogan, “Change the world in your sleep,” is equal parts enticing and inspiring to us! This recently crowdfunded hotel project aims to give guests the power change lives through their stay. Internationally renowned travel photographer Jeremy Cowart is spearheading this conscious lodging project and we are excited to see it grow!
After coming up short in their initial Kickstarter campaign, The Purpose Hotel exceeded the goal of their second campaign in just 3 days. Take a peek Jeremy’s vision for this luxury do good hotel!
“I’ve traveled the world for the past decade as a photographer, and every time I stay at a hotel, I can’t help but think — what if everything in this hotel was connected to a cause or a need?
Could a simple shift like that change the world? Imagine not just a hotel, but a global hotel chain, where every time you book a room:
In the lobby, a clean water well symbolizes the flow of hope and life to everyone and everything connected to the hotel.
By choosing this hotel, you touch a hundred lives or more locally and internationally. You literally change the world in your sleep.
And that’s just the beginning. The design reimagines the hotel as a creative, interactive experience that ignites the imagination, promotes play and fosters community.”The first purpose hotel, to be located in Nashville, should open in the next 2 to 3 years and would be the perfect destination for an engagement party, bachelorette weekend, or even a honeymoon for those hoping to stay closer to home! As they continue to add new locations we look forward to seeing all the beautiful weddings they host at their properties and positive change they pioneer worldwide!
