This study aims to analyze how nature-based sensory design is implemented in the BX strategy of luxury hotel brands by integrating biophilia theory and brand experience theory. The comparative cases were Six Senses, which emphasizes sensory immersion, and Park Hyatt, which pursues a restrained sensory strategy. The analytical framework was constructed by combining Peirce’s semiotic theory, sensory UX, and emotional immersion. The findings reveal that Six Senses actively incorporated direct and indirect experiences of natural elements across visual, auditory, tactile, and olfactory dimensions to foster emotional brand loyalty, while Park Hyatt achieved static immersion and trust-based loyalty through sensory suppression and spatial control. Importantly, the nature-based sensory design identified in this study differs from conventional luxury hotel design, which has primarily relied on material opulence and decorative aesthetics, in that it directly connects sensory stimulation and emotional immersion to brand philosophy. These results highlight the theoretical and practical implications of sensory-centered branding strategies, the integrated design of biophilia and UX, and the semiotic approach as effective frameworks for developing luxury hotel brand strategies.
