Forgotten running shoes? Wouldnt want to get injured. Alpha male showing off on the other treadmill? Eh, well try again later when things are less intimidating. Not to mention, personal TV screens or a kick-butt iPod mix are pretty much must-haves. Some hotels, for their part, have made it less easy to skip our workouts, like <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/fairmont%20hotels">Fairmont Hotels</a>. In addition to partnering with Adidas to provide exercise clothes and shoes, Fairmont is now also letting guests check out fully loaded iPods, complete with songs and playlists. Of course, theres one teensy catch: iPods only feature EMI

Some of us like our music to have a little soul and preferably, an on/off button. But what we wouldn't mind is a musical suggestion here and there. Now at <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/desires%20hotels"">Desires Hotels</a> you can get exactly that.Last month Desires, a boutique hotel collection that includes <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/The+MAve/local/1526">The MAve</a> in NYC, <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/The+Betsy+Hotel/local/1584">The Betsy</a> in South Beach and <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/The+Iron+Horse+Hotel/local/969">The Iron Horse Hotel</a> in Milwaukee, launched a new partnership with Putumayo Music Worldwide, a small record label that focuses on culturally authentic music from around the world.

If you are a fashion-conscious person living in Asia and clued into what's hot, then you would know that he is the current king of street style, a byproduct of founding and designing the clothing and shoe brand Bape, amongst other projects he has going on. He collects modern art, regularly hangs out with the likes of Kanye West and Pharrell, and is mobbed anywhere he goes. Naturally, a hotel is going to want a piece of this action, and the revered <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Park+Hyatt+Tokyo/local/946">Park Hyatt Tokyo</a> is the lucky recipient of a collaboration with him.

A newly-launched program provides guests (well, everyone) with access to EMI's digital music catalog via <a href="http://www.fairmontmusicstore.com">The Fairmont Music Store</a>, an online music boutique that is supposed to entice guests to join Fairmont's loyalty program to score discounts. If you're still a fan of Coldplay, Moby, Lily Allen, Keith Urban, Katy Perry and The Beach Boys, along with other stars on the EMI label, and if you're one of the dignified few who still pays for music and you love Fairmont, then this is a lovely perk. Discounts are for Fairmont President's Club members only, though: those

Nashville: Hotel Indigo to Rock with Rocco DeLuca in Music City

We’ve mentioned our aversion to lame music on hotel websites before, and unfortunately, we all know that lobby muzak is even more prevalent — and worse, since we can’t just hit mute like we can on our computers. That said, we’re intrigued by Hotel Indigo’s new “Artists in the Spotlight” music program, which brings live music to lobby bars.

The program includes music podcasts as well as a series of free “intimate hotel performances” by four emerging artists — one for each season — at boutiquey Hotel Indigos nationwide.
