Five-Star Jogging Maps

Hotels have grasped our addiction to jogging, which is why they’re now stashing jogging routes printed on maps, wristbands and even on water bottles in our hotel rooms.
THE HOTEL: The Mandarin Oriental Kuala Lumpur
THE ROUTE: Lying in the shadow of the famed Petronas Towers, this 1.3km takes you around one of the prettiest parks in the city. If you get bored jogging solo and want some company, the hotel fitness team hold daily runs in the evening around the park. (www.mandarinoriental.com/KualaLumpur)
THE HOTEL: Sofitel So Bangkok
THE ROUTE: With the picturesque Lumpini Park on your doorstep it would be rude not just to grab a map and go. Take a trip around the lake before breakfast. (www.sofitel-so-bangkok.com)
THE HOTEL: Westin Dubai
THE ROUTE: Along the coast of the Gulf
This hotel can offer you a five mile jogging route within its own grounds. It takes you through the hotel’s gardens, along the beach front and around the marina. (www.westinminaseyahi.com)
THE HOTEL: Buddha Bar Hotel, Prague
THE ROUTE: City and river view
Next time your partner is heading off for a weekend with the boys to Prague, place this in his hand. Not only will he get to the sightseeing that he swore they’d be doing, but he’ll also have a chance to rid himself of that hangover before he gets back to the airport. (www.buddhabarhotelprague.com)
THE HOTEL: Jumeirah Zabeel Saray
THE ROUTE: A 1km to 10km route around Palm Jumeirah
There’s nothing like running on a world famous landmark to spur you along your way. Jumeirah Zabeel Saray has marked out five points along the Palm’s Crescent so that you know when you’re about to score a personal best. (www.jumeirah.com/Jumeirah-Zabeel-Saray)
THE HOTEL: The Mark
THE ROUTE: Central Park
Every A-lister worth their close protection has jogged around this lush green park and now you can too. The Mark offers a jogging and a cycling map if you would rather climb upon one of its complimentary bikes and pick up the pace. However, spring, summer, fall, winter… this park always makes you feel ready to pull on your trainers and hit the bricks. (www.themarkhotel.com)
