Wellness and fitness used to be an afterthought in many hotels — think dim, windowless basements and limited menu choices. Today, those once-rare amenities are often central to a property’s offerings. Below, we highlight hotels that are setting the standard for on-property wellness, recovery and fitness.
New York City’s The Wall Street Hotel has partnered with ness, a trampoline-based movement studio, to offer unique in-room fitness options. Guests can request an in-room trampoline and access on-demand classes that range from a 10-minute lymphatic reset to full cardio workouts. The hotel’s La Marchande restaurant supports active stays with a dedicated wellness menu featuring fresh-pressed juices and nutrient-forward items like a super green omelet.
