Reviews of Better Gym Holloway

K. L.

Simple and cheap local gym. I think some of the reviewers below may have wrong expectations set for what they get at £20-25 per month.

V. V. P.

Average gym, has a bit of everything. It is never too crowded. Limited opening hours. Staff is nice and the place is very clean always.

1. M.

Staff that work there, especially the bearded gentleman helped me a lot with my induction and actually broke down how to do workouts properly. Gym is okay for the price and has all the equipment you need.

R. “. C.

[Updated review] Improvements are better. Now it looks more spacious with a few more new machines that were not there before. Also some machines upgraded, albeit with just better second handed equipment. They now have these hygiene tissues to wipe equipments which is nice.

M. J.

I'm a member of your gym. The black general manager was extremely rude to the staff that work there.as far as I am aware they do a fantastic job and are always on hand to help the customers.

G. H.

The Manager (sarmad) is such a lovely young man, has helped me a lot and is an asset to Better Gym Holloway.

M. O.

Never too busy, clean, mostly helpful staff and equipment is decent. Only complaint - would ideally have longer opening hours on weekends, but can't have everything!

J. P.

In need of some maintenance and machines / weights need a refresh, but for the money it is good value and does the job.

B. V.

Not a great gym but decent VFM. Completely disorganized, was much better when it was owned by fit space. However you can do your main lifts (squat, BP, OH press, etc.) atleast, even if there is lack of equipment at times. Better off finding an alternative if you're a serious lifter.

J. D.

No frills gym gets the job done absolutely fine for a low price. The same amount of compound movement equipment (squat racks, benches etc.) than the massive PureGym down the road, normally less busy too. Place ain't too shifty but I would recommend you bring a good padlock for your locker.

D. W.

This is an excellent budget gym. There are sufficient cardio machines and weight machines for even the busiest of times. I don't understand the previous comments about the gym being filthy as I've used this gym for about five years and found the cleanliness to be consistent and of high quality. The only drawback with this gym is the changing area and locker space which is all very cramped. The showers are in need of serious maintenance and the toilets can be grubby (this a fault of the gym users as much as the gym itself). That said, for a gym to cost this little in Zone 2 in London is quite something. Well worth a try.

J. H.

it is what it is, a great big gym, plenty of equipment, staff always on hand, its clean and tidy, no pool, no sauna, showers are always clean and the toilets are regularly inspected and cleaned, you can always find a place away from the hubbub if you want to train on your own because the place is so big. there is a water fountain, and i like the idea that you have a cleaning station to wipe down the equipment when you have used it, but the equipment is cleaned by the staff anyway. i like it, membership prices are well worth it. plenty of cardio and aerobic, i have never had to wait for equipment, there is a weight room and a stretch area. real value for money.

A. B.

It is my gym - as I use to call it. I love this place. I won't change my gym even if I move to another borough in London. I use this gym since I move to London and it brought lots of improvements in my body, mood and health. The staff was always helpful with me and friendly.

J. S.

Pros: -Cheap -Decent variety of equipment, especially good for functional strength -Not too busy Cons: -Needs later opening hours on Fridays and weekends for people who don’t work 9-5. -Equipment is good but takes a long time to fix when something breaks. -More a personal preference but the music is terrible 95% of the time, headphones are a must.

W. S.

Nice gym. I'm a student & it's next to my accommodation. Prefect for me my friends plus it's not too crowded like other gym. There's lot of space and I use the studio a lot it's nice and quiet also staff are so nice they make me feel welcome

So much potential to be a decent gym but the air con never works and the bathrooms are always filthy and the weight room makes absolutely no sense. They might as well make it a 24/7 gym, there’s rarely staff on the floor except the PT, so what difference would it actually make.

M. H.

It's a pretty solid gym with most of the essentials you would need to get a decent workout in. My only complaints are that the gym itself is a little "beat up" with some equipment that has been broken for a while. All that aside a pretty solid gym that could be better.

E. R. O.

A good gym, lots of weights, lots of cardio equipment + workout classes. If you live around it, it's the perfect place. However, there could always be more equipment, I do not suggest to go there on a power hours, it's packed. So adjust your training regime on the day's you can go there early in the mornings, or weekends it's the best time.

K. E.

Not so good: - Most of the equipment is old and poorly maintained. - The majority of the 12 running machines need their rollers replaced or serviced. They rattle and clunk when used at running pace. - Floor mats need cleaning. Good: - Cheap - Space - Friendly staff

L. S.

My new home :D ! I was a pure gym for 7months until I found this place, it’s a pleasant change to the “Rush Hour” feel at pure gym.. I always get the equipment I want to use 4/5 due to no parking only pay and display

X. G.

Not too many people early in the morning. The scan to open the door does not work.

R. A.

Affordable price and cool gym with loads of machines and a good environment. Also, I like how interactive the staff are with their members - they gave me a free Nando's voucher after I won their gym challenge.

S. B.

Very helpful staff manager with green eyes. Helped me with booking as I am new

H. M.

Best gym in the area. Great affordable price and on top they have everything I need in a gym Friendly staff and the gym is always clean. Keep it up better gym holloway👍🏻

M. M.

No frills but everything you need to actually do a workout and VERY cheap. It could do with more than 1 rowing machine but lots of other cardio and weight equipment to keep you occupied!

A. M.

Good atmosphere for a work out

A. M.

The machines are semi-broken and the floor is always wet. However, the new staff are cleaning it up nicely. There needs to be more machines at a better quality.

S. L.

It's ok for the price, but closes early on weekends. Often equipment is dirty/sweaty or broken. Lots of leaks from pipes too, so buckets or wet patches are common.

J. F.

Great gym, they are improving their space and equipment at the moment, but despite that, it is a good place to train

n. w.

Staff are friendly, there's a good range of equipment and the showers are always clean.

M. A.

It’s not bad for the price. The equipment is not top top!!! In summer the smell is really bad really now. Why is there no air conditioning???

J. M.

Great gym but is there some way you can open at 6am on the weekday please?

S. H.

The only gym I've been where you have a DJ!!! great facilities and options

J. R. K.

Cheap, hassle free gym. No frills but nice enough environment and clean

A. H.

Great gym, price and location too right next to tube station

P. J.

Plus: Cheap. Has all you need. Minus: Slow to repair broken machines. Weights not labelled properly and always on the floor or in random places.

N. K.

Good value for money and lots of machines, never hv to wait to use a machine plus handy location ryt next to holloway rd tube st

I. K.

A cheap nice gym.The only disadvantage is the opening hours on Fridays and Saturdays.

Y. B.

A. Y.

A. A.

G. B.

Cheap and complete. There is any type of machine.

K. L.

Good but going under refurbishment at the moment

M. M.

Honestly love this gym! Yes it’s basic but for £20 a month, you get what you pay for... changing rooms are much better than the ones I have seen in competing gyms Also love that I can bring my pals for a day pass 😁 Simple but everything you need 💪🏼
