Marriott International’s eco-friendly Element brand continues its central wellness and sustainability missions with the introduction of a new bicycle program, launched nationwide.

The brand refreshed its Bike to Borrow program, partnering with Priority Bicycles, a New York City-based company known for its high-quality, low-maintenance bikes. Custom-made Element Priority Bicycles are now available for guest use in all 25 Element hotels across the United States, free of charge, along with safety helmets.

To further encourage green transportation and guest wellness, the brand collaborated with NYC lifestyle and fitness blogger Christine Bibbo to create a bike map of New York featuring great, bike-accessible wellness spots around the city. Resident fitness gurus will curate localized maps for other U.S. cities in the months to come.

The distinctive Element brand invites guests to “Stay in their Element,” offering health- and environmentally friendly amenities like the complimentary RISE breakfasts and RELAX evening reception, saline swimming pools, spacious fitness centers and electric vehicle charging stations.

Element Hotels in the United States can be found in cities across the United States including Boston, Omaha, Aspen, Miami, New York and Seattle, and there are currently 56 new U.S. hotels in the pipeline including Element Irvine, Denver Downtown East, Pensacola and Bend, Ore.
