About this listen

 Stories for the quiet hours.

Every room has a story. In the hushed corridors of the Hotel Nocturne, where the carpets are worn and the moonlight filters through the tall, old windows, countless quiet dramas unfold after dark.

This is a collection of bedtime stories for adults. There are no heroes or villains, no grand adventures. There is only the lonely traveling salesman watching the rain streak his windowpane, the young musician composing a melody on a silent piano in the lobby, or the elderly woman writing a letter that will never be sent.

Join your narrator for a visit to the hotel, where the stories are as soft and fleeting as the guests themselves. Each tale is a gentle, atmospheric sketch, told in a calm voice and designed to quiet the mind by immersing it in another, slower world.

Check-in is now open. Your room is ready.

  • A Sleep Story for When You Feel Lost in Time (The Watchmaker's Hands)

    A Sleep Story for When You Feel Lost in Time (The Watchmaker's Hands)
    Aug 13 2025
    Do you ever feel like time is slipping through your fingers? Does the sound of a ticking clock fill you with anxiety instead of peace? This story is for you.

    Close your eyes and check in to the Hotel Nocturne. In this deeply moving and calming bedtime story, we meet an elderly watchmaker. For sixty years, his steady hands could mend the most intricate clocks, controlling time itself. But now, his hands tremble, and his life's work is over.

    For one night, he sits in the dark of a quiet hotel room, not trying to sleep, but listening to the hotel's old clocks. He listens to the steady, deep heartbeat of the grandfather clock in the lobby. He listens to the nervous, hurried ticking of a mantel clock down the hall. And in the silence between the ticks, he takes a journey into his own memory, learning to find peace with the time he can no longer hold.

    This is a cinematic sleep story about aging, memory, and finding purpose when the world has moved on. With a deep, soothing voice and an immersive, atmospheric soundscape, it’s the perfect story to calm a restless mind and guide you into a deep and restorative sleep.

    If you need a story to soothe your soul, this is it. For sleep, relaxation, anxiety relief, and a moment of peace.

    Sleep Stories for Overthinkers Vol 2: The Night Porter & More | Hotel Nocturne (Bedtime Story for Adults)
    Aug 8 2025
    Is your mind still racing long after the lights go out? Do you lie awake thinking about every detail of your day, your life, your past? This is the bedtime story podcast made for you.

    Welcome back to the Hotel Nocturne, the only place where a busy mind can finally find rest. In this new, one-hour cinematic audio experience, we meet four more souls spending the night in the quiet halls:

    The Night Porter: The silent guardian of the hotel, who watches the quiet, heartbreaking, and beautiful dramas of the guests unfold in the lobby at 3 a.m.
    The Translator: A literary expert who becomes obsessed with a single, untranslatable foreign word that holds the key to a beautiful poem—and to a love he lost long ago.
    The Archivist: A woman who finds a single, anonymous photograph from the 1920s and spends the night inventing a beautiful, secret life for the mysterious face she sees.
    The Ornithologist: A bird expert who sits awake in the dark, not to sleep, but to wait for the most hopeful concert in the world: the very first bird to sing before dawn.

    This is more than just a sleep aid; it's an immersive story designed to give your overthinking mind a beautiful, gentle world to explore. Featuring a calming, deep voice, rich atmospheric sound design, and intelligent, poignant stories, this is the perfect escape from the noise of the modern world.

    If you need a remedy for anxiety, stress, or insomnia, and you're tired of generic relaxation content, then dim the lights, put on your headphones, and let us tell you a story.

    For deep sleep, relaxation, meditation, and a quiet place for a busy mind.
