In response to the growing wellness trend, the tourism and hospitality industry has offered various wellness services and facilities. Despite the significance of emotion in wellness, research on emotional wellness is surprisingly scant. The present empirical study examined the underlying dimensions of emotional wellness and the influence of guest room colour on emotional wellness via hypotheses testing.
