BED, BREAKFAST & BURPEES
Pullman hotel guests can now maintain their fitness when travelling, thanks to a new partnership with workout aficionado Les Mills
Hotel gyms often used to comprise a single dusty treadmill or worn-out rowing machine in a hot, windowless basement cupboard. But not any more. Now, hotels are transforming their gyms into state-of-the-art wellness centres, complete with group classes, cutting-edge equipment and leading personal trainers – meaning you’ll actually want to work out when you’re away from home.
Pullman Hotels and Resorts is going even further by partnering with Les Mills – the largest creator of choreographed exercise-to-music group fitness classes – and creating the world’s first boutique hotel fitness brand.
Whether it’s strength training, martial arts, yoga, cardio, strength, HIIT, dance or cycle classes, guests will be able to enjoy free access to over 1,000 Les Mills workouts, available 24/7, to do in their hotel room or in the sleek fitness studio. There are also boot camps and special workshops with the Pullman Fitness Squad, which boasts the likes of expert Les Mills presenter and trainer Anthony Oxford, to create a social, supportive, community-driven approach to contemporary fitness.
‘Just as our guests are motivated to become the best versions of themselves, they have motivated us to look beyond the walls of the gym and create a platform that’s more engaging, more inclusive and more enjoyable than what’s found at most hotels,’ says Emlyn Brown, Accor’s Global Vice President, Wellbeing.
‘Our new partnership with Les Mills takes our wellbeing programming to the next level, with immersive experiences, continuously updated content and a Pullman Fitness Squad of creative individuals connected by passion and a shared mindset.’
The added extra? All Pullman guests will receive a complimentary 30-day membership to the Les Mills On Demand streaming platform in order for them to continue working out at home after their stay.
So make room in your suitcase for your gym kit and trainers, and get ready to maintain – and enhance – your current fitness routine, wherever you are in the world.
