We know that traveling can take you out of the Zen zone. (Let’s not get started on leg room.) That’s why our hotels and restaurants make a point of getting that busy mind of yours back to a calm, happy place.
Our programs and perks help restore your inner peace, whether it’s by helping you fit in a great workout, inviting you to unwind with wine, or having restorative spa treatments at the ready.
There are so many ways to unwind at Kimpton. Here are our Top 10.
1. Stretch out the relaxation with in-room yoga.
Starting in late-April, every Kimpton guestroom will contain a yoga mat. It’ll come in handy when you tune into our free on-demand fitness TV programs. Nothing like Shooting Bow Pose to start the day, right?
2. Give hula-hooping a whirl.
Round, round, round you go. If stress has been running circles around you, hula hooping will turn you back into a carefree kid. You can experience the good old-fashioned fun in our fitness centers, which are stocked with hoops.
3. Go for a bike ride.
Breath of fresh air? Get yours riding a Euro-style cycle, available for free loan from any Kimpton front desk. Our employees know some great paths and urban bike routes, so check with them about doing some sightseeing while you’re out and about.
4. Indulge in an in-room spa treatment.
Don’t move a (tired, tight) muscle. We come to you. Schedule an appointment for an in-room spa treatment and we’ll see that those aches, pains and kinks are well attended to.
5. Kick back at wine hour.
When the clock strikes five, we do a happy dance. It’s wine hour at most Kimpton hotels, and our employees will pour you a glass of juicy red or refreshing white in our stylish living room lobbies. Discover a new favorite wine, make new friends and loosen that tie a little.
6. Take a jog with a Kimpton employee.
Yep, you read that right. At some of our hotels, the General Manager or another employee will go for a run with you. Group outings meet in living room lobbies at designated times (check when booking for details). Enjoy an adrenaline rush and get your own personal tour of the city — win-win! Our hotels also have jogging maps so you can head out at your own pace.
7. Eat guilt-free.
Our chefs have a thing for farm-fresh ingredients and light, seasonal preparations. That means you can indulge without having to worry about how your body will feel the next day. (Spoiler: It will feel great.)
8. Have a healthy meeting.
Our private event spaces are equipped with everything you need to hold a successful meeting — including exciting food. Meetings at Kimpton are catered by our restaurant chefs, who don’t miss a chance to incorporate fresh, light ingredients. Even break time is nutritious because we offer a build-your-own granola bar.
9. Soak up the warm-fuzzies.
The fact is: We care. We’re there for you, every step of your stay. We’ll even hug you, if you let us!
10. Variety is the spice of lounging.
Our bathrobes, conveniently found in each room, are hardly one-style-fits-all… curl up in an animal print or a Rocky Balboa-themed robe. It’s cozy and perfect for posing in your getaway ‘grams.

Oh so impressed with this Kimpton.
Can’t wait to stay in your San Fran hotel April 27th, especially after the trek from Italy!
Loving the idea of wine hour and meeting new people whilst in town.

Ever since staying at The Hotel Monaco in Philadelphia, I’ve been telling everyone and their dogs (since pets are welcome too at the Kimpton hotels!) about this fantastic boutique chain. I stayed the Lumen in Dallas and the service once again had me swept off my feet.
Speaking of feet, mine are nice and cozy right now in my favourite Kimpton amenity- the fuzzy socks!
Coming for my very first stay at a Kimpton Hotel on May 24, 2013…coming to Scottsdale. I have been really impressed by all that I have read and continue to read about this Hotel Group. So looking forward to a great stay. Best wishes Kimpton and the Firesky Resort in Scottsdale AZ.
Love the Marlowe in Cambridge, been staying for years and have recommended many friends and family. My favorite amenities are wine hour, pet friendly, and love when the desk staff give me a complimentary breakfast voucher 🙂
Would only stay in kimpton when traveling.
Thanks
Staying at a Kimpton is worth a long haul flight. Just coming up to our 8th stay in a Kimpton in the last 5 years. 5th stay at the Argonaught. The reason is simple, amazing hotels and even better staff. We’re de-stressed as soon as we get out of the taxi. Just one example would be a doorman who took a very worn out traveller directly to the bar, got him a beer and then arranged his check in. It’s all about empowering staff to make that small but important calls them make such a difference. Counting the days until we’re back there.
[…] ask for a running buddy too! Though I haven’t tried it myself, a Kimpton staff member will join and motivate you on your run – how […]
