Hotels aren’t usually known for their gyms. These “fitness centers” are often tucked away in an unused part of the property with a treadmill from the early 2000’s and mismatched weights stacked haphazardly. But nowadays, some hotels have included health and wellness in their branding. That means better gym facilities for staying guests, including spacious and attractive venues, a range of equipment to accommodate different fitness regimens, and unique amenities like group fitness classes, swimming pools and rock climbing walls. These incredible hotel fitness centers will actually make you want to work out.
