LA's Hotel Palomar Understands You're a Work in Progress

Where: 10740 Wilshire Blvd [map], Los Angeles, CA, United States, 90024-4493

For a lot of us, working out on vacation can be sort of a buzzkill. And even when we want to exercise, cramped hotel fitness centers trying to trick us with wall-to-wall mirrors are enough to stifle our good intentions.

But maybe we wouldn’t let ourselves go so much on vacay if more hotels took a cue from Kimpton’s new Hotel Palomar Westwood in LA. As part of its new “Work in Progress” package, the Palomar is partnering with celebrity fitness guru Gunnar Peterson and his new Beverly Hills gym (called Work in Progress).

The package includes a daily, customized 90-minute workout session with trainers Michelle Lovitt or Gregg Miele (whose clients include Courteney Cox, David Arquette, Julianne Moore). Sessions can take place at the Palomar’s on-site gym, Peterson’s new gym, or another of L.A.’s popular exercise spots (i.e. the Santa Monica stairs, UCLA track).

Other package perks for guests: a heart rate monitor at check-in, healthful organic afternoon snacks, free valet parking, and free transportation to alternate work-out spots (if necessary).

Rates for the packages start at $424 per night.
