HOTEL GYM RATER

Time of visit: December 2019

From the first second you enter this hotel gym, it’s obvious that it’s been highly inspired by the cross fit world.

Cardio equipment is limited to two treadmills and an assault bike.

Dumbbells go up until 77 lbs/35kgs, sandbags until 55 lbs/25 kgs, medicine balls until 20 lbs/9 kgs and kettlebells until 70 lbs/32 kgs.

With the different racks, barbells and benches at the center of the room, barbells allow for a solid range of exercises. There’s even a trap bar and the possibility of box jumps!

Does the hotel gym offer complimentary towels? No.

Does the hotel gym offer complimentary water? No.

It’s a very well-equipped hotel gym although cardio bunnies might not find what they’re looking for. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a hotel gym with 77 lbs/35 kgs dumbbells!

It’s a bit odd that there aren’t any towels or water, but you can just bring this from your room.

The hotel gym is open from 6am to 10pm. You have to pay 20 DKK for a two-hour access pass. It was a bit surprising that they charged you for using the gym but then again, the money is – apparently – used to secure the quality of the equipment which seemed pretty obvious.

Yes, it’s extremely likely! It would be great if all hotel gyms were this well-equipped! It’s impressive how well they’re using the limited space.

Dumbbells go up to 88 lbs/40 kgs, kettlebells go up to 61 lbs/28 kgs and there’s an adjustable bench as well.

With two barbells and plenty of weight plates, you can do different exercises – deadlifts, bench presses, squats, etc.

As for cardio equipment, there’re two treadmills, a stationary bike and an assault air bike.

Accessories include elastics, a foam roller, a plyo box, medicine balls, sandbags and exercise mats.

Does the hotel gym offer complimentary towels? No.

Does the hotel gym offer complimentary water? No.

It was great seeing that they had barbells and a solid range of weight plates. It would’ve been nice if they’d a cross-trainer and a dual cable machine, but seeing that space is limited, their priorities are in order. I was happy to see they had two kettlebells of each weight and relatively heavy dumbbells!

The hotel gym is open from 6am to 10pm. However, you can ask at the reception in case you want to go earlier. I wanted to go at 5:30am and it wasn’t a problem. The previous payment of 20 DKK for a two-hour access pass seemed to have been cancelled.

There’s a small indoor pool opposite the hotel gym. The water was relatively cold and the changing room quite small. However, it’s workable for a quick dip.

Yes, it’s quite likely – not because it’s my second stay there – but also because the hotel gym is very well-equipped despite the relatively limited space! How many hotel gyms give you the possibility to do barbell squats and deadlifts!?
