With its goals, methods, and standards, sustainability has gained a lot of traction. Nevertheless, there is still room for improvement in terms of sustainability. Professionals and academics attempted to meet these demands by developing and implementing new substantial strategies for accelerating the transition to a more sustainable future. Culture is a crucial factor in evolution because it is the primary means by which our forefathers adapted to their surroundings. Resistance movements such as critical regionalism theory, resisting placelessness, and whimsical individualism arose as a result of the uncritical acceptance of the International Movement's principles and later post-modern languages. Considering all these, critical regionalism, biophilic design, regenerative design, and tourism are all investigated in this thesis. The goal is to investigate the relationship between these design approaches: critical regionalism, biophilic design, and regenerative design, and experiential hotels. A comprehensive literature review and the optimization of a collective case study are part of the methodology.By and large, critical regionalism creates autonomy and elevates its construction to an art form by providing functionally acceptable forms that are adapted to nature and the region. By translating the site's environmental characteristics within the hotel, biophilic design emulates nature through visual signs and a dramatic sense of place. By creating a design system, regenerative design aims to preserve hotel resources while also reducing carbon footprint and CO2 emissions. This study demonstrates the positive impact of combining sustainability methods and has provided individuals with a rich experience while minimizing environmental impact. Finally, based on the findings of the data and combining the three design approaches of critical regionalism, biophilic design, and regenerative design, this thesis proposes guidelines for designing experiential hotels.
