During our stay at the beautiful Elser Hotel Miami, we spent a lot of time at the two-level gym on Level P.
I had never seen a hotel gym that covered two floors before. It felt more like a high-end fitness centre than a typical hotel gym. It was definitely the biggest and best-equipped gym I have ever seen in any hotel.
As soon as we entered the gym, we were impressed by the extensive range of equipment available. Every machine you could ever dream of was present. And not just one or two units. There were plenty.
The cardio area was equipped with a wide range of cardio machines, including treadmills, ellipticals, and stationary bikes. The strength training zone also had a wide array of strength training equipment, including free weights, resistance machines, and functional training gear.
One of the best parts of the gym was its amazing views over Miami. Imagine working out while overlooking the beautiful city. What other motivation would you ever need to work out, right?
The large floor-to-ceiling windows allowed in lots of natural light and offered great views of downtown. Working out with such a stunning backdrop made the experience even more enjoyable and motivating.
The gym's cleanliness and maintenance were outstanding. It had all the workout equipment you could ever need, which was also well-maintained and regularly cleaned. This is especially important in a busy area such as a gym, and it showed the hotel's commitment to providing a top-notch experience for its guests.
Unlike in most hotels where the gym is charged differently, The Elser Hotel Miami offers free daily fitness classes for all their hotel guests, which is very impressive.
And, you get to choose what workout session to join. The sessions range from yoga and Pilates to high-intensity interval training and spin classes.
We also noticed that these classes were very popular, which showed how much effort the team puts into offering a fun and diverse fitness program. The instructors were professional, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic, making sure everyone got the most out of their workouts.
There was an on-site personal trainer who was always available to help guests out with their exercises. He would assist with training advice, personalised workout plans, and even dietary guidance. This level of personalised service is rare in hotel gyms and adds a lot of value to the experience.
Our entire family, including our kids, loved using all the machines and getting a workout in this luxurious gym. The kids were allowed to try out different equipment, of course, under our supervision, and they had a blast.
It was a great way for us to stay active and healthy during our vacation.
Simply put, the Elser Hotel Miami gym is undoubtedly one of the best and most stylish gyms we have ever used, not just in a hotel, but overall. The cutting-edge equipment, the stunning views for motivation, the fitness classes, the free onsite gym instructor, and the overall top-notch service made it truly stand out.
We honestly can't wait to come back and use this gym again on our next visit. If you are thinking of staying at the Elser Hotel Miami, don't miss the chance to enjoy this gym. It is an experience you won’t want to pass.
