The best gym in London? For me, hell yeah! Why? I couldn't really say as my opinion has been…read moresomewhat skewed by various 'factors' (which will be duly noted in the memoirs). What I can say is the neon blue poolside flatters all figures, and panoramic views of modern moonscape Chiswick Park yield strong visual incentives when holding the plank for an enforced one minute.

For me and my wallet, this is as good as it gets. Virgin Active, at least in my neighborhood,…read moreoffers a wide variety of cardio machines, ample free weights and weight machines, and 2 studios for all sorts of cardiovascular and holistic exercises. Additionally, there is a pool, a kids-care, and a spa (which I have yet to try). Both the men's and women's locker rooms offer sauna and steam rooms, so for those less-than-comfortable gym-goers who don't want to sit in a room, half-naked with the opposite sex, this is key. Body Jam and V Core are my favorite classes. You get your heart pumping and core strengthening from these classes. But there are tons more to check out!

The equipment is fair, the staff are helpful, however....The level of hygiene shown by some members…read moreis insensitive and archaic. My observations follow: 1.) I have witnessed members shaving their armpits and body hair in the sinks in the toilet areas, leaving piles of hair for the poor cleaner to clean up. 2.) Men using hair dryers in view of everyone to dry their privates after a shower. 3.) Toilet areas full of water and empty water bottles from members washing their posteriors after defecation. 4.) Broken toilet seats from members squating on toilet seats whilst defecating. 5.) Today was the final straw, which has prompted me to write this review...Faeces on the floor, the person responsible stepped on their own faeces and left a trail all the way to the sinks where they obviously washed their soiled trainers. I dread to think what was left on the gym equipment in the free weights area and the machines. I am perplexed that people can use a keypad with an electric sliding door to get into the gym and still find it difficult to engage in rudimentary personal hygiene. How can you pride yourself in coming to the gym to take care of your fitness and health, use gym equipment and not know how to conduct yourself in a civilised manor. I have been to gyms all over London and have only witnessed this backward behaviour in West London. If any of the culprits read this, take onboard that you are giving yourself and your community a very poor representation of how you conduct yourself in public.

Very good for the price. No frills, sauna or pool. But fine if all you want is a good workout…read more In need of a few back hyper extension platforms. These old school platforms are much better and safer than the naff back machines they have. These are great bits of kit, sadly forgotten in most modern gyms... I used to be a member of Virgin, and they didn't have them either. Good seated delt raise machine, not seen in gyms before. Could do with more than one though. Same goes for pec deck.

This gym had a much needed refurbishment at the start of the year, sadly the new colour scheme is…read moregrey....and grey....with splashes of red here and there....oh how I long for the bright colour scheme of old! I've been a member of this gym for about 7 years now (you wouldn't think it to look at me!) and things have definitely changed. Sadly not all for the better. The childrens pool seems to be out of order a few times a month (not a big deal to me, don't have kiddies but can see it being a deal breaker if you get junior all the way there and they don't have the fun pool to play in!). Changing rooms are kept pretty clean - you need to have a padlock for your locker - and they've tried to keep an area of the changing room child free....though sadly most of the kiddies (and their grown ups!) don't seem to be able to read the sign.... A victim of the refurb was the ladies weights area. I'm not sure why, it was pretty well used. Clearly the spin studio and 'skill zone' areas were far more important to them so now we just have to put up with being amongst the grunty men while we tone our muscles....another downside is that the weights machines do feel somewhat cramped together now as the space has been reallocated for other uses. The upside - there are lots of treadmills (though at peak times - like Monday evenings - you'll be lucky to get straight onto one!), bikes, cross trainers and rowing machines....the spin studio is now enclosed so you don't have to hear the instructor waffling on and on nor have two different types of music trying to seep through your headphones! The skill zone has new and very entertaining trixster bikes (simulates a mountain bike course for those of you afraid of the outdoors like me...) TRX training systems and a skill wall (you know, the lights come on and you have to jump around hitting them off....I dunno the proper name!). There are plenty of tennis courts (book in advance), a large pool with lane swimming, For the popular classes (like spin) you'll need to book in advance and get there early or you'll find all the bikes reserved with towels and water bottles! I haven't tried many of the other classes, the schedule isn't great for someone who can't get there til 7pm of an evening, and having had previous miserable class experiences I am wary of some of the instructors, nonetheless the classes seem popular so I guess it's just me!! Money wise you're going to pay for this upgrade in facilities! Current full membership is around £83 a month although you can sign up for a year and reduce that a little (be aware of when your cancellation date is though otherwise you will automatically get rolled over for another year!).

I totally agree with West12 - I have hated other gyms I've been a member of, but I actually like…read morethis one - nothing more to add except that I've been a member here for a while and their recent refurb and upgrade of equipment has made them even better. And their kids facilities are great. Both creche and classes. Current favourite new toy there is the Trixter Xdream videogame cycle - you have a videogame screen in front of you, and you race against computer generated competitors or real people. Resistance decreases and increases according to gradient, terrain and gears. I should be there now, really, racing against the machine - instead of slumped here, writing about all the food I've been eating.

Not bad for a small gym. The gym is easy to get to being in the shopping centre. Its easy to park…read morein the shopping car park, especially if you park on the same level as the gym. On an Induction tour, I had a quick look at the gym which had the usual modern gym equipment with a few TV screens. Not one of the biggest gyms I've seen, but seemed okay for the number of people using it. The swimming pool, was a bit too small for my liking. Its not a full length pool, and can get quite busy at times. The changing rooms are quite modern, and the sauna and steam rooms are larger than other gyms I've been to. Overall, the changing rooms, are better equipped and designed than most other gyms I've been to. Overall verdict, convenient if you live and work in Ealing, but otherwise I would go for a bigger club, for more space.
