When in Houston I do my best to try and stay at the JW Marriott near the Galleria. I think it’s one of the nicest hotels in Houston. I’ve stayed there on and off for years but the number one reason I keep going back is the gym.
The gym on the 5th floor of the hotel ranks up there with many commercial gyms I’ve been to. There are plenty of cardio machines including bikes, treadmills, stairclimbers and elliptical devices. This morning I saw that they recently added small LCD TVs to the front of each cardio machine so users can plug in headphones and watch television while they workout.
There’s a separate room that has a full set of new strength training machines and a rack of dumbells as well. You can do just about anything you want to in this well equipped area. There’s even a separate stretching area off of the main strength training room.
Other amenities of the gym include free mini bottles of water and plenty of towels. They also offer spare sets of headphones for guests who want to watch the TVs but don’t have their own.
As a frequent traveler I need a nice space to exercise to help keep myself in shape on the road. And a gym as nice as this one is reason enough for me to keep coming back to this hotel in the future.
