In a first for both Tromsø and the Comfort hotel chain, Comfort Hotel Xpress Tromsø has partnered with Gympak to offer guests a convenient and innovative way to stay active while travelling. Guests can now rent or purchase high-quality workout apparel, making it easier than ever to maintain fitness routines, whether in the hotel’s gym or exploring Tromsø’s breathtaking Arctic landscapes.
Strategically located in the heart of the city, Comfort Hotel Xpress Tromsø is often called the “Gateway to the Arctic.” The hotel’s new collaboration with Gympak solidifies its reputation as a pioneer in guest-focused amenities. The partnership also includes a tie-up with a nearby local gym, where guests enjoy discounted access, further emphasising the hotel’s commitment to promoting health and wellness.
For General Manager, Morten Ridderseth, the decision to bring Gympak onboard was a natural fit. “We know our guests value staying active, and many want to avoid the hassle of packing workout clothes,” Morten explains. “By offering rental options, we’re not only addressing their needs but also supporting sustainable travel by helping them pack lighter. This is about providing what’s essential and skipping the unnecessary-something we firmly believe in at Comfort Hotel.”
Beyond the hotel’s walls lies Tromsø’s unparalleled natural beauty, with fjords, mountains, and even the Northern Lights waiting to be discovered. Recognising the unique appeal of their Arctic location, Morten notes that the new fitness offering aligns perfectly with the adventurous spirit of their guests.
Linn Örneskog of Gympak shares in the excitement. “Working with Morten and his team has been inspiring. They saw the potential of our concept right away, and together, we’re creating a completely new way for travellers to stay active.”
This initiative marks another milestone for Comfort Hotel Xpress Tromsø as it redefines hospitality in Northern Norway. With a focus on health, sustainability, and adventure, the hotel is setting a new standard for wellness-focused travel in the Arctic region.
