Every time I have visited Renaissance KL, I’ve ended up being somewhat lost as I get confused between their East and West Wings. During this most recent visit last week, I had guides who kindly brought me to several floors as a form of orientation, without which I would definitely have lost my bearings yet again.

My visit to the hotel’s Fitness Center was certainly a revelation. It began with a walk around their Olympic-sized free flowing swimming pool. On a hot day, you can imagine how blissful it’d be to soak in this pool surrounded by lush greenery. You could almost forget you were right smack in the middle of KL.

I’ve never seen a Fitness Center located in a hotel as big as Renaissance’s, it’s a whopping 14,000 sq. ft. of space and I was floored by the size when I entered the Fitness Center. I would have been impressed even if the Fitness Center was half the size it is. Whether your choice of exercise is to dance, walk, run, sway, swivel, lift, stretch or just sit and look at every one else exercising (an activity I do very well), there’s more than enough space here.

The Workout Space has Cardio machines, strength machines, weights and free form equipment. There’s enough here to keep any exercise fanatic busy. Once you have exercised to your heart’s content, chill out in the sauna, steam and jacuzzi in the male and female changing rooms. There’s a wet and dry sauna, steam your hair or your blackheads out in these saunas!

Membership to the Fitness Center starts from RM48 for a day pass (RM28 for 2nd accompanying person) which entitles one to:-

Complimentary car parking

50% discount on tennis (prior reservation required).

They also have 3, 6, 12, 36 and 60 months options. Members who take the 6 months and above package get complimentary car parking while for those with the 3 months package, parking rate is RM3 per entry.
