The membership fees tend to be a bit higher than most gyms and look to attract a certain clientel. This one is attached to the Madison Hotel, yet it is not a part of the hotel, which I like. I live right around the corner so the location is optimal for me. Being a typical gym rat, I like the weights. I am not into wellness, aerobics or any of that. I want weights and I like to work out hard. I do use the wellness area at times which is a nice bonus but is not the main reason I am here. For the majority of the people though, this will be the main attraction as everything is clean, well organized and pleasant to the eye. The members are all pretty civil as well. You don't have the typical bodybuilder types in tight shorts and tank-tops. It's mostly a gym frequented by business types. They have everything you could need though so the offering is not lacking at all. My only complaint and hence the reason for only 4 stars is that the weights don't go high enough. This is of course more my problem as the weights should be sufficient for 99% percent of the people using the gym but I need dumbbells higher than 40 kilos. I of course understand though why a gym wouldn't need to have these and I can get around this problem using the barbells or machines. Further, the raisied the membership fee by 10 Euros a month after I joined so it's now even more expensive than when I started.

My regular gym was the Rödingsmarkt location, but that one closed for 3 months back in May for…read morerenovation. They're now a month late with no signs of completing soon, so I imagine they're using the same crew that handled the Elbphilharmonie. Prior to the renovation, the Rödingsmarkt location was just a regular Fitness First, so going to the Europa Passage Platinum Club location should have been a step up. Sure enough, the workout machines are slightly fancier with rep counters and timers, the locker room finishes are higher end, and they have an entirely non-advertised hand/shower towel service (I still have no idea if you have to pay for this given how few people use it). However, it feels a lot like flying Premium Economy on a A380. The finishes are nicer, but you're still stuck in an airplane with 300 other people. As others have pointed out, the biggest plus to this location is the view. It's on the 3rd floor with sweeping views of Jungfernstieg and the Alster. On a clear/sunny day, it's really awesome. Otherwise, this location is pretty small overall, especially compared to Rödingsmarkt pre-renovation. I stick to morning hours since it's pretty much unusably cramped later in the day. Even in the morning, there's constant passive aggressiveness racing to get to the machines first but, since it's mostly the same set of folks, we've learned each other's routine as long as no "I'm going to the gym every morning now" person shows up randomly for a day or two. The biggest downside to this location is that they do the morning classes on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays in the small freestyle training area, which leaves no other area/equipment for everyone else at the gym. They also blast music for those workouts on top of the gym's music, which makes for some really awful layering. Pro tip: with the exception of Tuesdays, you can just go into the group studio to avoid those classes. The Jungfernstieg U-Bahn, S-Bahn, and bus stops are all close to Europa Passage, so this location is definitely convenient from a public transport point-of-view. It also has a StadtRAD station right in front of it. Pro tip: stick to the main elevators, not the outside glass elevator. That thing is slower than molasses. All in all, while I'll be gone before they ever finish the renovations, I'd probably go back to Rödingsmarkt over Europa Passage, especially since the former will re-open as a Platinum Club with the same higher-end finishes as the latter but with nearly twice the amount of space.

This is my favorite gym in Hamburg. It is not the biggest nor does it have the most variety of…read morefitness programs, but what it does have are qualities that I find convenient. It is in the Europa Passage and one can take an elevator from the outside street level which for some time was privately only accessible directly to Fitness First, but now the lift stops at Seven Oceans, a seafood restaurant located below, so if you share the ride with others who need to make a layover to the restaurant, your trip is less direct to the top. My favorite things to do here are the spin courses and cardio machines that overlook the gorgeous Alster lake. It makes you feel like you are doing sports outside, but from the inside of a climate controlled studio. The spin classes are intense but they have great instructors who play good music depending if you go on Classic Rock night or Dance/Disco club hit favorites. The lights are turned down and a blacklight keeps the room glowing in neon. The crowd here is also more business focused so often I see clients from the banks or media and even legal offices working out here. Since the size of this gym is not very large, it has more an intimate vibe, because you really get to see, meet and know members here on a more personal level. Best part ever? You can go shopping at the mall either before or after your workout, grab a bite to eat, or jump on several trains below the mall since there are the U3, U1, U2 and S trains to choose from. If you do the monthly pass, the prices are a bit higher, but monthly is available here.
