Im assuming you are a male.. Your best bet if you are walking in front of the lobby and where the public could view you, you should wear some gym pants/sweat pants over the shorts, and just remove those once you get to the gym... But as for in the gym itself.. shorts is fine as long as they arent those sheer nylon reveiling shorts cut up to your backside cheeks I see some daring men try to wear (God knows why they wear them)

Well of course yes ! But not outside or even in the lobby. Lobby becomes a public domain and people will be offended by this. Chance is - you will get a pat from the hotel staff to change. I've scuba dived at Nakheel Beach south of Jeddah (awesome cliff !!! wall diving down to 15-20 meters) and going back to Red Sea Palace Hotel - I was wearing my basketball shorts and T-shirt. Just alighting from the service bus front of the hotel (opposite the Al Balad Souk) I was instantly the street star attaction due to mmy wearing of shorts !!! . I ran to the hotel door just like hell as if Im up against Carl Lewis in a 100 meter sprint !!!
