20 Stories Above Chicago

Your workout
rises above
the ordinary

Step onto the roof of Virgin Hotel Chicago and train with the entire skyline as your backdrop — then unwind with craft cocktails at our rooftop bar. This is fitness elevated in every sense.

The Experience

A gym that doesn't
feel like a gym

Forget fluorescent lights and mirrored walls. Rooftop Gym places you 20 stories above the Chicago River with floor-to-ceiling windows framing the skyline — a space designed to make every rep feel intentional.

The space flows between three distinct zones: a performance floor with premium Technogym equipment, a dedicated stretching and recovery area overlooking the river, and a social lounge where the workout transitions seamlessly into the evening.
