Nobu Atlanta Hotel Review: The gym

This might seem odd to have an entire post dedicated to the gym at the Nobu Atlanta Hotel. Well, you only think that because you haven’t been there. As someone who has been to quite a few hotels of late, this place is far above any others I have seen. I have included the full list of the equipment below, but let me tell you why I was impressed.

If you follow fitness content, there is a particular subset that focuses on hotel gym workouts. The assumption is that hotel gyms have less equipment, so you are going to have to make quite a few modifications to your routine. Nobu said, “No, don’t do that. I got everything you need.”

I went in there without a plan. I was an out of shape kid in a candy store. Probably not the best analogy, but I wanted to try a little bit of everything. I used the Pelton, played with the leg press, swung some kettle bells, whipped the battle ropes back and forth, and was sore the next day. If you are actually serious about your fitness routine, just know that you won’t have to make any concessions while you’re staying here.

  • Technogym chest press
  • Smith machine
  • Weight plates up to 45 lbs
  • Weight rack with pullup bar and platform
  • Bench
  • Cable station
  • Ab bench
  • Glute ham developer
  • Set of rubberized dumbbells up to 75 lbs
  • Set of all metal Hampton dumbbells up to 25 lbs
  • Technogym leg press
  • Battle rope
  • Assault fitness rowing machine
  • 2 Peloton bikes
  • Technogym recombinant bike
  • Technogym spin bike
  • 4 treadmills
  • Box jump
  • Medicine balls
  • Swiss ball
  • Rollers
  • Speed ropes
  • Resistance bands
  • Mats
  • So much room for activities
  • Also, there is a bathroom down there. No to leave the room and have swipe back in to the space.  

It is bizarre to me that they don’t talk about this space at all on the website. There are no pictures of it. You only see it mentioned as “24 hour fitness center access,” in the room amenities. I believe they are underselling this. But I won’t. The gym is amazing and a definite plus for the hotel. If I happen to stay there again, I am truly excited to get a good, well planned workout in.
