Very disappointed,…read more I was new to the gym, and I have been with them for 15 days. I have never been in the gym, and I decided to let it go because it was not what I wanted and I was also feeling very sick. That's one of the reasons I have never been in one. I found out that I need to pay a fee to leave the gym, but I did not expect to be told that I need to pay 59 pounds. What for? In the time when I was checking the app, I found that they wanted to overcharge me (even if I didn't find it correctly to even charge me the actual amount of membership, which is 39 pounds). I have paid it, but they have not told me what they are doing or what my options are in case I leave before six months. After I paid the membership fee to leave, it was straight away removed, not even letting me use the gym until the end of the membership! What a shame, and shame on them, as they want to still, and I am sure I am not the only person out there who has been tricked, so just be aware that they charge anything without even telling you from the beginning what the situation is. very frustrating the way they manipulate the situation in their favour and how I paid for something that I have never used. Theft ! very disappointed! "Poor and miserably ! And the guy that did the membership--shame on you that you haven't told me that I can't cancel it without paying the fee! Shame, shame, shame!

I was looking for a gay (LGBTQ+) personal trainer, and a quick search led me to Marios. I set up a trial training session and ever since then I was hooked. I was hooked mainly because Marios is such a down-to-earth guy and I really enjoy our chats in-between the various sets. And - a very nice touch is that every time I come for a training session, a freshly-brewed cup of tea is waiting for me. Last time, he made a mint tea, with leaves from his garden. The studio is at his house in Arnos Grove, which is a bit out of my way, but it makes me ride my bike to and from the session, which adds an additional layer of exercise. Also, what I also like is the flexibility of scheduling. I am not the person who adheres to a rigorous schedule. I can book a session last minute (if there's availability) and most weeks, I actually pick a slightly different time or day...just to not have monotony come up!

Ok, I can understand why people have not reviewed this place, they want to keep it to themselves…read more I am a newcomer in London, but noticed very quickly that having a membership at a gym is not cheap. Memberships commitments are long, non-peak times are short and a sauna is not standard. I come from Finland and I need a sauna. The Circle Spa and Gym is a package of everything. There is a spa, a small gym with modern equipment (including classes), swimming pool (17m), steam room, sauna and a jacuzzi. The space in general is small, so I can understand if it gets crowded after work or even during lunch hours ( I am lucky as I can go any time I want). The cost of a non-commitment membership does not make you hyperventilate with 75£ a month for unlimited use of everything and 55£ for non-peak hours (everything is included in the non-peak except for the classes). If you are ready to commit for a longer time period you get a nice discount. I also got a lot of perks when joining: 30% discount for my first spa treatment, two guest vouchers and 10£ off my first Thai massage and 25% off my first sports massage. I had a peek at the Spa treatments and the price range was pretty standard for central London. The gym is divided into separate cardio, weight training and stretching rooms. Equipment seems fairly new (I am not an expert in this though). I especially liked the modern treadmills with an easy user interface and different programs. And what best, there were plenty of them (6 to be exact). The space reserved for stretching was however very small and crowded even during off-peak hours when there were only a few of us in the gym (perhaps stretching is very popular here). I have a non-peak membership so the classes are excluded, but I noticed that the program is very variable with different spinning, toning, and heavy on yoga and Pilates. The best thing is that the maximum number of participants is small, so you don't feel like you are in a barn full off cattle. The pool is long enough to have a proper swim in. It is not for enthusiastic swimmers, so if you think anything less than 50m is not a pool, this is not your place. The poolside is nicely lit and decorated for a relaxed, spa-like feel. Kids are only allowed between 3 to 5pm also during weekends, so one can float around in peace ( when choosing the time right). The steam room is spacious and the sauna properly heated. Nothing to put a Finn off like a mild sauna. It also felt like a luxury to soak in the jacuzzi after an hour of exercise. One could call the reception and order cold drinks to the poolside for a decent price. If the whole complex would be outside and the weather +30 degrees C and sunny, it would be like a holiday retreat. The dressing room is cute but a bit small. I am not sure how crowded it gets during peak hours. Only 3 showers and not very many benches to sit on. There was a nice set of Molton Brown soap, hand cream and shower gel, so one survives nicely if something is forgotten at home. The dressing room also had a nice smell. So in case you are a gym junkie and train at the same time as everyone else, I might hesitate to recommend this place. You will find more space and equipment to choose from somewhere else (like the Virgin Gym). However if you are a bit gym-lazy (just want to take a spin on the treadmill), consider yoga and pilates as great forms of exercise, and enjoy hanging around at the pool during the day, the Circle Spa and Gym is heaven.

So i'm a bit of a gym rat / fitness freak and i've been going to this gym since I moved to the area…read moreabout a year ago. It's in a great area and the best thing is that it's open 24 hours a day, which is perfect for me. Over the last few years, due to the recession, we have seen a lot of these cheap gym chains sprouting up and I usually go with the saying 'you get what you pay for'. Now where that's usually proved me right for the most part, it's completely untrue with this gym chain. Monthly rates are dirt cheap, usually around £20 and the gym has everything you could want and need in a gym - state of the art equipment, full range of free weights, stretching areas, changing rooms, classes and PT sessions. Notice I said gym and not HEALTH CLUB. When I go to the gym I like to TRAIN not swim, jacuzzi, play tennis, steam room, spa or play tennis. If that's what you want then this place is not for you, as it hasn't got any of them and you want somewhere like VIRGIN ACTIVE or DAVID LLOYD and the price that comes with it (upwards of £65 per month plus joining fee). When I joined this gym I was shocked at how cheap it was a month as I would have gladly paid double every month as that's what I was expecting to pay at least. It's clean, nicely decorated and has everything you would need and more in a gym. A few recommendations - - Take full advantage of the 24 hour services. I would say to not train after work 6-10pm on weekdays as you will not be able to do what you need to do in less than 2 hours so you may as well not have gone. I go before work during the week and sometimes at weekends and have no problem using the equipment I need. - They don't have a wide range of classes so take a look at what they have on the website and see if they do things you like if thats a factor for you. - Don't get PT sessions here. I've trained athletes and know bad trainers when I see them. Apart from a few, most of the trainers here recycle their sessions and don't make sure their clients are doing the exercises correctly. I think they care more about their money than helping them. Or if you do want sessions here send me a message and i'll recommend the good ones and I promise I don't know any of them personally to just be giving them your business! Apart from those minor points if you live local and are looking for a gym I thoroughly recommend this place!

Always has been clean for me, and the other patrons are a nice cross-section (read: not full of gym rats). PT professionals I have not seen to be amazing for the price - they seem more just like the contractors who didn't have a job elsewhere - and they cost 50 to 80 an hour typically. Better to head to Pure Fitness or to another big London PT house for that price (and maybe get medical insurance to cover it). The nautilus machines and free weights are plentiful during non-peak hours, though can get a bit crowded with the afterwork crowd. Either way, the gym is great value for money if you're within walking distance.
