Minute Suites
The Air Traveler’s Retreat

In the fast-paced world of air travel, where time is money and schedules are tight, finding a moment of tranquility can feel like an elusive dream.

But in 2007, a group of brilliant minds—Lisa and Amir Arbisser, retired ophthalmologists, and Daniel Solomon—foregathered to turn that much-awaited dream into a reality. Leveraging their longstanding experience in the healthcare space and insights from Dr. Sara Mednick, assistant professor of Psychiatry at the University of California, they started the groundwork to design a solution that delivers the best sleep and relaxation experience in airports.

“Our goal was to provide a secure, clean, and quiet environment for travelers, encouraging napping and sleep at airports,” says Daniel Solomon, Co-founder & Director, Minute Suites.

The innovative idea was held in high regard and received overwhelmingly positive responses from numerous travelers after launching at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in 2009.

This gave birth to a global wellness-based brand, Minute Suites® that focuses on the mission of providing air travelers with privacy to relieve stress and fatigue caused by air travel, improving their lives. With close attention to detail, it delivers a healthy sleep solution with a clean, sanitized, and calm oasis for all to get the work done or have a moment of peace amid a crowded airport terminal.

Minute Suites has since accelerated its growth, operating multiple locations in various airports with further expansion plans underway. Currently, it proudly holds an undisputed nametag as the global leader in the airport sleep solution space. This stems from its innovative office-style design that creates a professional and functional ambiance, with a daybed sofa and workstation for a productive yet restful environment. It operates 24/7 in most locations and provides a flexible pricing model with a minimum one-hour booking at 48 dollars and subsequent prorated 15-minute increments.

What truly sets Minute Suites apart is the commitment to inclusivity, providing discounts for military personnel, first responders, and flight crews. It offers 20 minutes of complimentary access to nursing mothers. This compassionate approach has supported over 10,000 mothers, solidifying its position as a leading customer-first company with many prestigious awards, including Best Passenger Service Amenity, testifying to its excellence.

At Minute Suites, guests can enjoy an array of outstanding amenities and features. Its suites have dimmable lights that create a soothing ambiance and thermostats to maintain optimal sleep temperatures—between 68 to 74 degrees—for a restful slumber. The sound masking system implemented in ceiling plenums suppresses outside noise by increasing ambient noise in the suite, ensuring a quiet and peaceful environment for travelers.

Prioritizing guest safety, Minute Suites adds high-quality, heavy oak doors with deadbolt locks while employing staff and a security system 24/7 to enhance protection.

A well-equipped workspace, high-speed Wi-Fi connectivity, Apple TV for entertainment, and Amazon Echo Alexa for interactive assistance are the distinct features Minute Suites offers to its guests. Most locations provide showers for guests to freshen up. It offers a selection of snacks, beverages, and various merchandise, catering to overnight guests’ needs.

“From toothpaste to Tylenol, our small commissary-like setup ensures guests have access to all the essentials for a comfortable and enjoyable stay at Minute Suites,” says Solomon.

Minute Suites stands tall as a safe haven for air travelers by adhering to strict hospital-based cleaning protocols. Using EPA-certified cleaning agents, it eradicates 99.9 percent of germs, including the coronavirus, in just 60 seconds. Every room gets a thorough cleaning with smart strategies like Oxivir disinfectant, "hug the wall" cleaning, and regular fogging. It's not just the suites that sparkle – even the bathrooms and retail spaces receive the same rigorous treatment. With this commitment to cleanliness, Minute Suites truly lives up to its motto, "Clean & Serene," serving numerous travelers across the globe.
