Two bikes and a cross-trainer plus a TRX system.

Based on the hotel gym, would you stay at this hotel next time you’re in the area?
It’s not very likely… Although in good condition, the equipment is way too limited. Unless you’re in the mood for body-weighted or TRX exercises, you’re left with the cardio equipment.
Although the gym is rather small, there’s space enough to add a rack of dumbbells, a bench and a barbell with a fair range of weight plates and maybe even a small cable machine.

Schönblick Mountain Resort and Spa

Hotel: Schönblick Mountain Resort and Spa
Address: Poserweg 5, 5661 Rauris, Austria
 
Time of visit: July 2018
 
Equipment
The cardio equipment is a bit worn-out, but it’s surely suited for a short warm-up.
Dumbbells range up to 10kg, but there’re barbells allowing you to go higher.
 
Does the hotel gym offer complementary towels? No.
Does the hotel gym offer complementary water? No.
 
Comments
The hotel gym is open 24 hours every day – you just gain access via your room key.
It’s located to the side of the underground parking garage – although in a separate room. However, there’s no real ventilation and without any windows it might feel a bit claustrophobic to some.
 
Based on the hotel gym, would you stay at this hotel next time you’re in the area?
I might! The overall impression was surely better than expected – and old school in a positive sense. However, based on the rather worn out cardio equipment and the somewhat claustrophobic location, I might search for other options.
