Gym Review
The compact fitness centre at Scandic Skärholmen is designed for classic workouts. A handful of modern treadmills and stationary bikes allow you to get your cardio in before heading out to explore Stockholm. Strength‑training enthusiasts will find a small selection of resistance machines and free weights suitable for circuit routines or focused lifts.
Floor space is limited, but there are mats available for stretching or bodyweight exercises. Large windows let in natural light so you don’t feel like you’re training in a basement. After your session, relax those muscles in the adjoining sauna or unwind in the lounge area.
Overall this gym is perfect for travellers who want to stay on track with their cardio and light strength routines without sacrificing sightseeing time. It’s not a full‑service fitness club, but it covers the basics and is immaculately maintained.
