Fantastic experience: Great gym not crowded, staff members very friendly

Sarah Kee 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I joined the gym just a month ago and I can't believe I didn't find it sooner! Such a relaxing environment and lovely, friendly staff. I joined mainly for use of the gym facilities to help with rehabilitation after major knee surgery, which can seem a tedious task some days, but having the pool, jacuzzi, sauna and steam room to enjoy after really motivates me to get down and do my excercises.

Tim Roche 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great facilities and friendly staff, new equipment in the gym and the Sauna, steam room, jacuzzi and pool are always clean. Would definitely recommend.

Camilla Dent 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Best gym I’ve never joined. The stand out feature of the Circle is how quiet it stays, it’s really helped my confidence when using weights. The pool, sauna and steam room are also great to use post the gym. I’ve tried a few classes and they’ve all been great, a really good variety. Overall I would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality I’ve been with this gym for 2 years now, staff are always friendly and helpful. Great atmosphere, clean and a very upmarket health club feel for a decent price.

Zara K 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience at the Skin Lounge spa. The spa itself has luxury feel, and their wide range of treatments really exceeded my expectations. My deep tissue massage was not only incredibly relaxing but has really relieved my muscular pain. I feel rejuvenated and so relaxed! I strongly recommend one of their highly talented therapists.

Fantastic experience: Yes certainly a hidden gem , but what a find! One part of the gym is a heavy lifters zone with all the kit you could want, and the other an Indonesian spa retreat with a lovely pool too. Staff were smiley and mega helpful , none of that corporate guff with the big chains. Thanks again guys.

Fantastic experience: Friendliest gym I've ever had the pleasure of attending. I almost didn't want to write this review as it feels like a bit of a secret space. Has everything needed for doing weight training, as well as a lovely pool, sauna and steam room with a luxurious vibe. There's an app for booking classes and signing in, and a neat range of classes. So glad this is my nearest gym!

Elena Maxim 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Profesional, clean, friendly. I've joined the gym because I'm taking swimming lessons with Theo and he is amazing. I wanted to practice swimming by myself in between my lessons so I decide to join the gym and give it a go. Best decision I've made, the staff is very friendly, the gym is never too busy and love the sauna post exercising.

Vrishni Sivakumaran 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Incredible spa which rivals the big chain brands. They have a lovely small but warm swimming pool. I usually get cold in most swimming pools but the water here is the correct temperature. Their jacuzzi is awesome and gets nice and hot. The Buddhist theming and nature imagery is lovely. The plants make you feel at peace. My only criticism is that the changing rooms are a bit icky and the water from the showers floods them. They should change the layout, also put some hooks inside the shower stalls.

Jasmine B 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I used to be a member of virgin but i love this place. Great facilities and location. Staff are incredibly professional and helpful. I love the vibe of the gym, unlike other gyms which are dark and underground, the gym is so bright and really beautiful decorated. The swimming pool is amazing and i cant recommend this place enough if you are considering joining.

martina maffeis 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: This gym offers several types of classes to choose from, each of them focusing on different goals as strength, cardio or stretch. Very young and relaxed ambience, the pool and wellness area are a great plus!

Craig Holmes 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Has to be one of the best in London the gym the equipment and most of all the staff Absolutely great place the pool is the best I can’t recommend enough. I don’t want you to join so I can keep this little gem to myself fantastic guys keep being amazing

Brockley Bob 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been going to this gym for 6 months I'm really enjoying It. Its got a great atmosphere and the staff are very knowledgeable and helpful. I'm 67 and feel 20 years younger. From stretch class to Muay Thai boxing, I love it all!!!

Gina Southwood 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of the Circle Gym for almost a year now. The classes are so varied and suitable for all whether beginner or advanced. There is always enough equipment even in peak times and trainers / staff are very attentive and encouraging. Excellent value for money and a super friendly, welcoming atmosphere.

Max Krupski 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Reposting this as the level is still top notch: The Staff are what make The Circle Spa so special. Don't get me wrong, the equipment, facilities and gym as a whole are top notch but it's the people who put it head and shoulders above any other gym I've been a member of. The management, reception staff and trainers all add to an unrivalled level of friendliness whilst maintaining a professional atmosphere. I couldn't ask for more from a gym. As a side note, I think someone has got there locations mixed up. The Circle Spa is NOT a hair salon. Although I'm sure if they did cut hair, that service would be brilliant too.

Sangee L 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Positive: Quality This is one of the best gyms and spa I have been to. The pool and the jacuzzi are amazing!!! The staff is very friendly and helpful. I love using the spa (steam room & sauna) and it has helped me a lot with the daily stress and fatigue. Great experience!

Stuart Harris 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've now been a member of the "Circle Spa" for 11 years and couldn't Imagine life without it. The independent family feel is unique in London nowadays due to many soulless corporate establishments everywhere. It's recently had a refurbishment with new gym equipment, decor, lots of plants and ornaments to give a fresh bright relaxed feel. The team of personal trainers are amazing and definitely dedicated to their jobs with a fantastic variety of classes to take advantage of from spinning to kickboxing. You'll definitely find something in the diverse program that suits you. The cardio room has natural skylights and overlooks the pool to give it an outdoor kind of perspective. Having a spa with steam, sauna, jacuzzi and a 17 meter pool is the perfect place to decompress after everything life throws at you. This is my oasis. Overall a lovely hidden gem in a great location that I truly couldn't live without. Keep up the good work team.

Daniel Cray 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: This place has made huge improvements over the last 12months. The gym and spa has been refurbished to a really nice standard. Class schedules could still use some improvements with more consistent timings and more options, but overall it's a great place to train and/or relax.

Chūmbi Lūmbimbi 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: This is too good. Love it! It's smaller, local with the pricetag to match, so not a budget gym. Bathrooms are great and clean! Pool is decent size considering it's central London, amazing when not busy, fab steam room and sauna. Jacuzzi of that's your thing. I will book a facial spa break just to have access! So nice.

Gabor Baan 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: A very verynice gym located in a small street but really close to Tower Bridge / London bridge station. It's not very spacious but has everything needed, including a swimming pool and sauna. , can totally recommend.

Dean Kelly 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Wow, first and foremost the staff are just lovely here, incredibly helpful and have gone out of their way to help me. Facilities and equipment are top notch and an overall 10/10 gym experience. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Heather Noon 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: We live close to the Circle gym and have been using it for many years. Since being able to return after Covid restrictions, it has become much more central to our quality of life - it really does make living here so much nicer! The recent upgrade has also made a big difference - facilities, staff - all contribute to a welcoming, positive experience. I now swim on a daily basis, and attend more classes - thanks to the friendly atmosphere and well run schedule. Many thanks.

Aileen Prendergast 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I recently joined the Circle Gym and Spa and it was a wonderful decision. The staff are all extremely friendly and helpful and the swimming pool particular is well managed so that it's never very busy.

Sophie Drechsler 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: This is a great small independent gym with brand new equipment, lots of space, a lovely spa and swimming pool that makes you feel like you’re abroad with all of the plants and decor! The staff are all really friendly and welcoming and I’d highly recommend it to anyone keen for doing their own workouts or joining classes.

Katy Lord 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym and spa with a great range of classes and equipment, as well as friendly and accommodating staff. The spa area feels like a cosy sanctuary away from the bustle of the city; a great place to unwind, relax and let your worries float away in the jacuzzi! The pool is the perfect temperature to swim in or cool off after a work out, with the added benefit of looking great with the surrounding plants and plenty of daylight. I also love that they offer ladies’ nights once a month; a safe environment for women to come together and promote female businesses. There is also the option to bring guests along for the experience! Overall I would highly recommend the Circle Gym and Spa, especially for the upcoming winter months!

Carlos Grassl 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best gym in the area. Having previously held memberships in two other gyms in the area, The Circle Gym and Spa is by far the one that ticks all the boxes offering a great balance between free weights, cardio machines, group classes, pool, and spa. Ive been a member for over two years now and I’m quite happy with the constant upgrades and recent renovations.

Riccardo Ronzani 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality I have been a member at the club for 3 months now. The place is warm and cozy, filled with plants: I like this as it relaxes me after a day in the office. The gym has a great spinning area and a lovely spa, perfect for rainy Sunday mornings!

Ronald Fraser 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: This is a gym that will survive the post pandemic crisis because they invested a ton of money to make it as pleasant an experience as possible, making the slightly pricier than average prices well worth it. This is not so much for the ‘serious geezer’ (tho they have all the necessary equipment for that) body builder but for people of all shapes and sizes. The service is second-to-none. They call you by your name! And they respond to concerns ASAP. But most importantly, where else can you have a good workout with state of the art CV machines, and then hop straight into a massage, the pool, jacuzzi and sauna/steam room. No hassle. Friendly members. It’s a mini heaven. Worth every penny!

Camilla Parker 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: This gym is incredible and I come most days. The facilities really are fantastic and a cut above other gyms regarding the quality and range equipment. The pool area in particular stands out with masses of day light and plants everywhere and I really enjoy using the jacuzzi and sauna. The staff are friendly and helpful, also open to feedback to improve the experience of members.

Matthew MacLachlan 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality This is a fantastic gym. It has been fully refurbished to a very high standard, the pool is beautifully heated, the equipment is excellent and the staff are extremely welcoming and friendly. Highly recommended!

Ale 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best gym ever!!!!!!!!! Clean, amazing swimming pool but most importantly lovely staff and the lady who owns the place is one of the most friendly people I have ever met with an amazing and vibrant personality. Plus they don't try to tie you into contracts forever and they easily freeze your membership if you want to. This really shows me that they value their clients and their needs! I love this gym!

Chloé Avenas 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym! The new management team refurbished it recently and made it feel much more welcoming, with bigger spaces to exercise and newer machines. The pool is really nice too, with a jacuzzi, sauna and steam room to unwind from your daily life. All of the staff is lovely, they know who you are, help out with anything they can, and always think of new services to help you get through the rather strange times we're experiencing / to improve the overall experience (e.g. spinning bike rentals during lockdown, gong meditation classes, ...). It's so nice to have this friendly environment, I highly recommend you give it a go, you won't be disappointed!

James Cook 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym & spa! Have been a member for a few years now, typically go Mon-Fri when working in the city. Great location near Tower Bridge. The gym has a very welcoming atmosphere, but is still the place to get a good work out. The spa is the perfect place to wind down and relax after a tough day, or workout. The staff are super friendly, and are knowledgeable within the gym. Always recommend this place to colleagues and friends, definitely worth checking out.

Joanna Harris 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I joined The Circle in May 2021 and love every visit. The club has a great vibe like a close family. Staff are friendly, helpful and very professional. The pool and gym are always clean and the sauna and jacuzzi areas are well kept and hot! Staff really listen to suggestions, when I proposed a thermometer in the sauna it was installed within days. Am so glad I became a member.

Anastasia Petrova 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: A very nice & cosy gym, very conveniently located in a small street but really close to Tower Bridge / London bridge station. It's not very spacious but has everything needed, including a swimming pool and sauna. The guys there are super-nice and create a very positive atmosphere. Another good thing is various classes, can totally recommend.

Samuel Weinman 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely lovely gym and spa. Despite being on the small side, the gym has a lot to offer. Atmosphere is really nice, with many friendly and familiar faces. The real advantage of signing up to this place is the pool and spa. The managment have really done their best in creating a sacred space for swimming and relaxation. Highly recommend!

Terry Leader 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Fantastic gym. Staff and facilities are brilliant. Very welcoming and warm staff. Spa facilities are the best I have used in the city. The refurbishment has been done to a fantastic standard. All round the best gym and spa in the city. Classes are extremely well put together would recommend taking a few to anyone joining as a member

David Holmes 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym and spa in a lovely location. The staff are the most friendly and welcoming I have encountered. While the pool is on the smaller side it is often particularly quiet at off-peak times therefore it’s not much of an issue. There’s also a wide range of classes available should some extra motivation be required. One negative is that the changing room lockers can occasionally be temperamental however I believe this is in the process of being resolved. Overall I’m very happy at the Circle and can comfortably recommend it to others.

james vine 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’m a regular gym goer and have used gyms all over the country and this one is definitely one of the best I’ve been to. Circle gym and spa have all the facilities any gym goer could want from a gym, and for those looking to relax, the spa offers a perfect setting for a relaxing time. I met a gent called Sam, who is a member of staff there who was more than helpful and friendly. Overall a fantastic gym, with fantastic staff, one that I will certainly be visiting again when I’m next in London.

Aaron Douglas 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Joined recently and met the manager. She's the loveliest person and made me feel really settled. All staff are very welcoming and the gym has a nice atmosphere. Would recommend to at least have a tour. Great facilities and great for gym noobs

Samuel Barnes 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I recently joined the Circle as I have set the goal of taking care of myself a bit more in 2020 and I have loved every minute so far. The staff are amazing and have been really helpful as well as accommodating as it is my first time living in London. I can also say the same about the other members as I was a little nervous at first due to not being a regular gym goer but everyone has time for a smile and even a chat which is great. The facilities are great and I understand they are now improving them even more so which is fantastic. Would recommend this place to anyone who is looking to just relax and get a little healthier in a great environment and also to check them out whilst their new year deals are still on!

Sophie Robinson 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been a member here for about 3 years now, and I love it. A little over a year ago I changed jobs and my new employers offer highly discounted rates for the gym below our office, but I still choose to stay at The Circle Gym & Spa because I consistently have a great experience there. This is a family run, boutique gym; it's not a big chain, and I love the personal feel here. The owners, Lisa and Kate, are lovely - they're always smiling, friendly and encouraging. I find that coming to a place where I am always greeted with a smile, and where people know my name makes such a difference. All of the team are always friendly and happy to help. There's lots of great classes available, and you can book online which is really helpful. I find that the gym has all of the equipment I need, and I love being able to use the pool, hot tub, steam room and sauna. It's really hard to find somewhere with all of these facilities in a central location, and I think the price is great for everything that is included. I have no hesitation in recommending The Circle Gym & Spa; it's great!
