Finding Hotels for the Fit

What do celebs, jocks, and weight watchers all have in common? They love the gym. Or maybe they love to hate the gym. In any case, hotel gyms are notoriously not standardized--a hotel in Florida might consider a "fully equipped gym" to be an exercise bike, floor fan, and some dumbbells, while a "fully equipped gym" at a California hotel might offer spin-classes, trainers, and Internet on your elliptical.

Sound familiar? Check out Fit Hotel Directory a new website that brings fitness and lodging together. As it's still relatively new, there aren't tons of listings (only US hotels are currently available...the rest of the world is launching in Jan 2006)...but once the travelin' fitness guru's catch on, it should take off.

The accommodations listed are detailed and include photos. Who knew you could get private trainers at The Peninsula Beverly Hills?
