Top Hotel Gyms Around the World

A world-class hotel gym can truly elevate your vacation experience. Maintaining a fitness routine while traveling is often challenging, as finding the time or a quality gym can be difficult in unfamiliar surroundings.

Fear not, for I've done the hard work and compiled a list of some of the best hotel gyms worldwide. These gyms stand out due to their exceptional fitness equipment, diverse array of group classes, outstanding amenities, or breathtaking views that make any workout more enjoyable. And if you're in the mood for a different kind of self-care, you can always skip the gym and head straight to the spa or cocktail bar—because, let's face it, that's part of wellness, too.
