Rest and recovery are critical parts of an active lifestyle and for gym-goers who wish they could do it all in one place, GymNation launched the world's first in-gym hotel. Located in Dubai, this in-gym hotel takes the form of a bookable four-poster bed set up right in the center of the workout space. On the bed, there are not only plush, premium linens but also dumbbell-shaped pillows.
At this "hotel," guests can take advantage of special features that consider their unique wants and needs, such as a Press for Protein button service that brings nutritious shakes straight to the bedside. For kicking back and unwinding post-workout, there's also a Gymflix streaming service and private entertainment screens.
After resting, workout enthusiasts may be inspired to use equipment like free weights, a boxing ring, a running track, a squat rack, and more.
