Even Hotels

Location: Norwalk, Conn.; Rockville, Md.; two in New York. Seattle, Miami and Omaha are coming soon.
Rates: Starting at $199
Health boost: It's the first major hotel brand built around wellness. Each room has a "fitness zone" -- with cork flooring and exercise equipment -- for in-room workouts, and the beds are covered in breathable eucalyptus linens. Order room service: The menu is a kale-fest.
Biz extras: Free wi-fi, ample electrical outlets and ergonomic room desks.
Guilty pleasure: Cocktails and parfaits at the lobby restaurant.
