Through this program, guests will be able to reserve an exercise partner, tour guide, and hotel room all at the same time. For Mr. Jacobs, this program is also an opportunity to meet his guests wearing a pair of skates rather than a tie.

Guests who participate will receive two complimentary PowerBar Energy Bars, a complimentary t-shirt and pair of shorts provided by Brooks Sports, and use of in-line skates and safety equipment provided by K2 Skates.

The "In-Line Skating With The G.M." program will be offered Tuesdays and Thursdays between 7 a.m. - 8 a.m., weather permitting, as well as by request based on a group of four or more. Guests will join Mr. Jacobs for a one hour skate along Seattle's waterfront, or along Alki beach, transportation provided. Route depends on guest's time schedule.

In addition to the program, the Alexis Hotel also offers guests complimentary use of the hotel's K2 in-line skates and safety equipment upon request. In-line skates may also be ordered and shipped to a home address through the hotel concierge desk.
