Comments
The hotel gym is located on the 3rd floor giving you a nice view of downtown Boise.
Dumbbells range from 2 to 22 kgs.
 
I was surprised to see the yoga equipment and the bench, that’s super helpful. It would’ve been nice if they’d has a cable machine but that’s extra in a hotel gym for me.
 
There’s access to the hotel 24/7 via your key card.
 
Based on the hotel gym, would you stay at this hotel next time you’re in the area?
Yes, absolutely! The pool for the kids and especially the rooftop was an amazing bonus.

Comments
One of the newer additions to the Miravel resorts, this location used to be the Cranwell resort and spa but it is now the new and improved Miravel!
 
The fitness area was very spacious and the equipment was all new. There were so many activities to do at the resort that the use of equipment wasn’t necessary. However, I’m glad the option was there had I needed it.
 
Based on the hotel gym, would you stay at this hotel next time you’re in the area?
Yes! It’s new clean and surely worth going back to!

At least, they ought to have towels but they obviously don’t take care of the gym. It needs a thorough vacuum and wipe down.
