Adelaide was renovated in 2007/2008, and the spuce up was overdue. The public areas (lounge, juice bar, lobby) are very chic, and for travelers with extra time on their hands, the internet access, health infused smoothies and TVs may present a welcome distraction and/or refuge. In fact when you exit the club's private elevator you'll likely be "wowed" by the white marble floors, plush carpet and original artwork.

But the workout is why you've come right? Well don't worry, because Adelaide also supplies a well-maintained stock of top-of-the-line cardio and strength equipment.

The 50,000-square foot club does separate the sexes for the heart pumping, which may or may not excite you. There are four gyms: a men only, women's only and a co-ed free weight gym and a co-ed resistance training gym.

For those who like to sweat with others, the huge selection of class offerings will make you very happy. Other club amenities include a full service spa and four squash courts.

Enter off the street through a mall-like entrance, ride the escalators down, and circle behind them to an elevator that will take you down to the club.
