Hotel Istra in Opatija, Croatia, has established a partnership with wellness solution provider Gympak to elevate guest experience in the hotel.

The collaboration introduces various services, including the option for guests to borrow or purchase athletic apparel and utilise Gympak's training equipment.

The service is suitable for guests wishing to sustain exercise regimens either within the privacy of their accommodations or amid Opatija's natural backdrop.

Located in the heart of the Adriatic coastline, the three-star hotel has 171 rooms that cater to contemporary comforts.

Hotel Istra offers its guests a diverse range of activities as part of its Active & Healthy concept, including Qi Gong classes, yoga sessions, underwater cycling, bike rentals, and more.

Hotel Istra manager Mateo Nikolovski said: “Our goal has always been to deliver a hotel experience that stays with our guests long after their visit. By partnering with Gympak, we’re not just meeting but exceeding the expectations of today’s health-conscious travellers.

“This collaboration allows us to combine the beauty of our region with a focus on well-being and innovative service.”

Hotel Istra's latest initiative blends Opatija’s town's history with the preferences of today’s travellers. Guests can enjoy a stroll along the Adriatic coastline or exercise using Gympak's equipment, combining wellness and relaxation throughout their stay.

Gympak Europe sales manager Linn Örneskog said: “Hotel Istra perfectly combines tradition with modernity, making it an ideal partner for us. Together, we’re redefining how hotels cater to their guests by making health and convenience an integral part of the travel experience.”

Earlier this month, Clarion Hotel Karlatornet in Sweden collaborated with Gympak to launch a service that allows guests to rent workout clothes at the hotel’s gym.
