hotel intercontinental makati: gym + pool

, ,

i’ve been meaning to kwento my experience looking for a substitute gym for fitness first kasi di na kaya ng budget ko hahaha i looked around ayala ave and found a lot of gyms pero wala akong nagustuhan given na naghahanap nga ako ng mura at may swimming pool at malapit sa office.

anyway, i found Gold’s Gym at Intercon at natuwa ako kasi eto na yata yung pinaka-murang gym with pool na nakita ko around makati hahaha >XD

kung swimming lang naman talaga habol mo pwede ka na dito sa intercon! 🙂

3-9ft ang lalim! sarap!

as for the rates, i joined their april promo and was able to get exclusive limited visits with pool access for 12,500. that’s 96 visits sa intercon + 12 complimentary visits to centris/glorieta/binondo good for one year. para sakin okay na rin sya. hahaha

eh dahil pool lang naman talaga ang habol ko, di ko na pinansin yung gym. sawa na rin naman ako sa gym. but then… objectively, eto pros and cons if you workout at intercon.

PROS:
– mejo mura compared iba, considering the pool access
– malinis yung pool, araw araw tine-treat the chlorine
– wala masyadong nagsswiming, kung meron, madalas foreigner
– til 12mn ang gym pag weekdays, til 9 pag sat/sun
– they offer group exercises such as yogilates, zumba, bellydance, streetdance, etc.

CONS:
– hanggang 8pm lang yung pool
– maliit yung gym
– they only have 4 shower stalls + 2 toilets
– onti yung lockers and bring your own padlock pa
– on peak days madalas puno lalo pag may group exercise
– anliit din nung group exercise room
– ANLIIT NUNG BUONG GYM

ayon. if you wanna try Gold’s, don’t go exclusive on Intercon unless you’re just into the pool like i am. try their Elite membership na lang, there are much bigger and better branches out there. haha

UPDATE:
Hotel Intercon has closed
