Want to have a Wii bit of fun? Try Westin Hotels & Resorts,
which are equipping some of their fitness centers with the
sports-simulation consoles free of charge. So you can pretend
you’re tennis star Venus Williams, Yankee star Derek Jeter or any
of your athlete idols instead of just hopping on an exercise bicycle or
hoisting a weight.
Westin claims it’s the first lodging brand to partner with Nintendo on Wii, but it’s not the first hotel to offer the popular video games. In New York City, for instance, Hotel Gansevoort will deliver Wii consoles to your room, and Le Parker Meridien will set up Wii sessions for you and your buddies for $52 per hour.
Among 10 Westins adding the game this month are the Westin St. Francis, San Francisco, and the Westin New York at Times Square in New York City.
Westin also said it expects to be among the first hotel brands to take
delivery of the new Wii Fit game, set for release May 19 in North
America, which offers yoga, aerobics and other activities.
