Hotel brands globally are racing to develop, enhance and market their healthy and fit offerings.

InterContinental Hotels Group already had great gyms and healthy offerings and went a step further to develop a Wellness hotel brand, EVEN Hotels. The Fairmont Hotels offer Reebok workout apparel, shoes and if you need music, no problem, an MP3 player is at the ready. And many brands including The Four Seasons and The Westin Hotels are also happy to accommodate similar requests and more.

The Gansevoort Hotel Group, many Lowes Hotel locations and the EPIC Hotel Miami have an Exhale spa and fitness on-site.  The Siam, Bangkok has a Muay Thai gym. And if the gym is not your thing, many large hotel brands and boutique hotels throughout the world have bikes on the ready.

The W Hotel also wants to get noticed and have partnered with yoga instructor and model, Tara Stiles to build their ‘FIT with Tara Stiles’ campaign. To get noticed, Tara will be conducting yoga poses in a glass mobile truck while the driver tackles NY traffic.
