There’s a solid selection of kettlebells, barbells (up to 25 kgs) and dumbbells (2 to 50 kgs) and several adjustable benches.
 
As for cardio equipment, they had stationary bikes, treadmills and rowing machines and most likely a stair-master too although I’m not quite sure since I didn’t do cardio.

Comments
This hotel gym actually felt like a full-on gym!
Opening hours are from 8am to 7pm, as I recalled. However, being on holiday hours, I think they open at 9am normally.
They sell energy drinks, protein and even has its own little shop where you can buy gym wear!
I was happy to see they actually had a bench and squat rack, but also cable machines.
 
Based on the hotel gym, would you stay at this hotel next time you’re in the area?
Yes! It’s truly one of the best hotel gyms I’ve been too.

Comments
Really nice hotel with high quality service but the gym is just squeezed in with way too little space and equipment. When I was there, we were 8 people trying to work out, but we had to stand in line. The equipment is old and there are no mirrors either.
