Reviews of Gymbox

O. M.

Awesome staff, equipment and space is unrivalled and the vibe in this place shouts beastmode!!! Massive thanks to farringdon staff for making the intro in this gym real welcoming. If you want to level up and be your best athletic self, Gymbox it's definitely for you. Cleaners are working around the clock on the gym floor and cleaning showers to keep the place spotless. Staff always walk around putting things back in place. And for those worried about busy times, your're already on Google so worth checking out the "busy times" section. It's pretty accurate. Would be awesome if guest passes could be a monthly thing rather than one off so friends could get hooked on the place. Makes every other boring gym seem like a living room with some treadmills in it. Massive disservice to just call this place a gym. It's a whole lot more than that.

V. S.

Very good gym. Pretty much two of every machines. Very really had to queue. Very good supportive staff too. Plenty of space. Really big Gymbox

I. S.

The best gym in London! Can’t fault anything - the atmosphere, people, equipment and classes are incredible. Special thank you to Lois for making the signing up process so easy and always being super helpful & friendly. And a big shout out to Sam for always being so lovely and helpful too!

C. H.

What a breath of fresh air the staff here are. After scouting some of the gyms in the local area, and having some absolutely atrocious staff with little to no knowledge of any information within their companies, I walked into Gymbox and was greeted with the biggest of smiles and the warmest of welcomes. Rhiannon was the woman that served me and gave me all the info on prices, classes, tips on when to come - why can’t all other receptionists be as helpful. Thank you for some great service. I will be back.

M. ..

Really nice gym with amazing equipment. The staff are top quality, especially Mark! I asked him about a routine I had in mind and he gave me a few pointers. Would highly recommend!

D. K.

Nice facilities and wide range of machines. I found the classes schedule a little limited and the rooms are too cold for yoga. You end up leaving more tense than when you arrived. Overall good gym for machines, not so great for classes.

E. M.

Couldn’t have asked for more at Gymbox - the receptionist Harvey at the front desk was incredibly kind to an older lady who seemed to get confused about class bookings. He was patient, kind and took the time to explain the gym’s policies without being condescending. I’ve recommended the gym to my Mother who often struggles with ‘new technology’ as a result of Harvey’s compassion.

Z. S.

Wonderful gym, just would like to point out the lovely service of the reception staff especially Rhiannon, she was very lovely and helpful with sorting out my membership problem. Makes me smile every time I enter the gym and always very polite. Great work Gymbox Farringdon !

R. B.

Top rate gym. The staff are always engaged and on point. The class teachers are second to none and absolute leaders in their field. Towels are provided and all areas are always clean. This gym is very well kitted out and the pick of the bunch. It has large open spaces and loads of space. However, each as it’s own feel so worth seeing which of their gyms is best for you; in many cases the decision is based on which is closer for your needs.

J. M.

Old school gym vibe with access to martial arts. Staff went out of their way to help me. Elle I believe with the email correspondence, and Harvey going out of his way to send me photos when I was inquiring from out of town. Above and beyond service. The personable staff ultimately bringing me through the doors. 5 stars.

S. H.

I’ve just signed up at Gymbox and I love it! Amazing atmosphere and staff are so helpful. Particular shout out to Lois for being an absolute star! Always super helpful and friendly

S. F.

Great gym, good range of equipment. Staff are always very friendly, I’ve always found Dan to be particularly helpful. Would definitely recommend!

I. A.

Amazing gym, great space. Staff are cool, especially Mark, super helpful, positive and friendly person. Keep up the good work Mark!

S.

Brilliant time as always. Staff are unbelievably friendly, a lovely receptionist named Harvey or something helped me through a recent trouble I’ve had with my membership. Thank you Gymbox!

A. G.

Best gym I ever been to ! A lot of space and different equipment, many classes and great training teams! Gym is also super clean and i really feel at ease every time I go.

L. B.

amazing gym with great range of equipment, friendly environment and great staff. huge thank you to michaela for giving me tips and helping me with my training and just being a great help!

A. P.

Cool gym with excellent equipment, classes and music! The gym has a range of lovely classes and and everything I could ask for. Boxing ring with various experienced trainers and an amazing water row machine. Great place.

C. L. G.

It is ok gym! Lots of space doesn't feel like a traditional gym, which makes it different and cool, on the other hand it makes it difficult to take advantage of the whole thing and space. Also in winter since it is very spacy it is cold. Classes are great but always booked rooms are like every other gym almost. A plus: towels and sauna included and top rate allows you use all of the other gymbox in the city. I think is a good gym but it goes on the overated side and can be a little expensive 125£ p/m I don't really think it is much worth it for towels and sauna.

m. i.

Really nice gym with good equipment! Staff were really friendly and great when asked for some pointers, especially Michaela :)

T. S.

Leah at GYMBOX Farringdon has excellent customer service! Great humour always smiling and never forgets my name! Awesome Gym , awesome employee keep up the great service!!!! Ps Lois is great too ! Always there with a great sense of humour. Cheers guys. T

A. B.

Had a wonderful phone call with a staff member called Rhiannon, who was on reception, on Saturday. SO helpful, super positive. Overall great experience. Will seriously consider signing up now!

k. m.

Nice gym, great atmosphere, great staff! Has all the equipment I need for my work out. Highly recommended 👌.

J. C.

Ok so when I say I HATED spin for ages, Jade Avia’s class changed my whole perspective and made me LOVE it 😂😂 The playlist was 10/10, the vibe was immaculate, her energy - I swear we need more people like her. Even though I was dying in her class I was still smiling because she proper uplifts you and kept encouraging everyone to really challenge themselves in a way that was super motivating. Love love loved it 😍

Y.

Great gym, with a good atmosphere, spoke to a colleague called mark, who talked to me about my fitness goals and a small break down of how to achieve them, very knowledgeable and friendly staff member

w. g.

Best gym in the land, great staff, michaela the Scottish girl is so nice and friendly. Highly recommended to anyone looking to join 👌

A. M.

Great gym my new happy place good positive vibes great staff michaela was especially helpful very cheery and always smiling very helpful and approachable good luck to all the staff working here just what evryone needs after a tough few years

D. P.

Amazing gym,i have the chance to train only once per week here thankfully to a friend ,the place is huge and it has everything you need inside,could be crowded around 17/18 but overall it happens that you don't have to wait longer.

A. A.

At first I thought it was pricey but when I saw the gym itself and the facilities I gave it a go. The classes are superb, very pleased. Only downside it’s not 24hours.

g.

Awesome gym with very friendly/helpful personnel...Mark gave me some great pointers which have put me in good stead with my rehabilitation...Thanks very much and see you again soon!!

J. B.

Great gym with lots of equipment so little waiting and excellent friendly staff. I would highly recommend to anyone!

J. E.

Massive gym full of very friendly staff. Thanks especially to Mark who very warmly welcomed me and took the time to show me around!

A. S.

One of the biggest gyms I have ever been to in London. Plenty of equipment, large space, variety of classes, and clean and spacious shower facility.

A.

Very reasonably priced and well-stocked. The equipment and instructors are of a high calibre. Can always get booked onto classes or the waiting list. One star removed as some equipment, particularly dumbbells and the massage guns are not always put back where they belong so you can waste time searching. It would be good if they had someone on the floor to ensure equipment was put back properly as it’s a big gym and finding it isn’t always easy. It also risks injury if a heavy lifter fails to remove his or her plates from the machines (this is a regular occurrence).

D. F.

Best gym in the City by far!!!! Shout out to the amazing reception team who always have a smile on their face

M. H.

Love gymbox! Great facilities and friendly staff, I’ve found Harvey at reception to be particularly helpful.

L. B.

Top equipment! Friendly, helpful staff. Cleanest GYMBOX is Victoria studio, best one for space is Farringdon and the worst GYMBOX is Victoria main gym as the place needs a decent clean.

L. M.

Reception staff are all lovely and Dan (I can’t remember his surname but runs the club) is a star - always has a smile on his face!!

P. B.

Awesome gym with everything you need and a great team who are always willing to help.

R. D.

Best gymbox by far!! The most amount of equipment and machines. Literally massive!! Changing room facilities are clean and cleaners are actively on the gym floor. Wasn't too busy when we arrived around 1400. Gym staff seem okay but didn't really engage with them. Steam Room also available.

D. M.

I went to a class yesterday and absolutely loved it. Then went around trying new machines, staff were so amazing and helpful! Didn’t want to leave!! Then spent a sold half hour in the sauna. Omg just beautiful! Loved that the tunes were going the whole time especially in the shower. loved my first day there. Have planned to be back all next week too. Such an amazing place. My new favourite thing now is looking at the classes coming up and booking them ! 😂😍 you could definitely spend all day here. Little bit of heaven - weird to say for a gym but 100% true

L. C.

Great gym ! So many options for classes - survival training, trapeze etc - it is hard to chose ! A lot of space, many treadmills, weights etc ! Each evening there is a DJ playing ! Very colourful ! Orignal concept, which create a real difference with more classic gym !

1.

Best gym in town, huge as well. Got everything from calisthenics, boxing, crossfit to bodybuilding.

A. S.

Dan runs the best GymBox in London! Great place to work out

B. T.

Very nice gym with a lot of variety of equipment, huge and loads of space and different sections for types of training for calisthenics, functional, Olympic, aerobics and cardio, martial arts and strength-area. Also the reception team are extremely friendly too. The only reason for my 4 stars is that on the weekends it opens at 10am which I find is too late. The gymboxes at both Westfields and E&C opens at 8am. If it was to open at 9am on weekends I'll bump it up to 5 stars ;-)

N. S.

Disneyland for fitness enthusiasts. They have a section for every passion of fitness. I really enjoyed the theraguns at hand to mobilize before the workout. It has a very club vibe and everyone is into working out, it might be a little intimidating for beginners, but I love it.

C. H.

Fantastic gym,great equipment and plenty of choices. bit pricey but is the next level when you compare with normal gyms.All covid restriction are in place as normal.

L. N.

Just signed up to Gymbox Farringdon today. Place looks amazing and cant wait to get back into my training. Got to thank Khloe for all her help and patience in getting me signed up. She was very friendly and helpful from start to finish especially with my work holding up the process of signing up whilst I waited for the corporate link. Cant speak highly enough for her. Answered all my questions. Very knowledgeable about the club and most importantly not once did she try to push a membership on me. Thanks again

j. m.

Love this gym! The staff are always so welcoming and smiley on the front desk, and the trainers give you help and advice on the floor. This gym is huge and has every class you could imagine-whilst regularly introducing new ones to mix things up. There’s a real buzz and it’s hard not to stay motivated! Anyone who comes here will be impressed.

A. Z.

My new favorite gymbox! Plenty of space in the gym and in the changing rooms, everything is new - these are just extra bonus points to the cool positive gymbox atmosphere we know and like :)

B.

I've been to GymBox Farringdon as a guest just once. As I already hold another active membership, I will not be joining. Though my impressions were very positive: the gym is welcoming and it really is brilliant in terms of facilities, functional training and classes. Abigail from sales also called up to check that my visit went well and was very nice and kind. Great team!

B. F.

The Gymbox is an all encompassing gym! No matter what your fitness level is or what your goals are the Gymbox offers you the space and classes you need to reach your potential. The space is always clean and the staff is always welcoming and helpful. I especially recommend Jade's Spin Class! She knows how to challenge you while motivating you along the way! Very happy to have found the Gymbox!

T. G.

Gymbox is amazing. I am already looking forward to tomorrow’s workout. Great customer service, everyone is super friendly. Different classes everyday, the facilities are fun and the design is brilliant! What’s not to like? This is hands down the most inspiring gym in the city.

P. Y.

Great gym with excellent equipment, classes and music! I’ve been a member for around a year and enjoy it every time I go. Can get busy at peak times but there’s so much equipment everywhere and so much space with the track, the frame, the weights areas and the stretching areas you can always get a good workout.

P. O. E.

Great guy, very happy with his instructions will recommend him to my friends 👍🏼

s. s.

I had the most amazing experience here!!! Loved the spin class I tried and the reception staff were so kind and helpful. In particular Leah. best gym in London without a doubt.

J. J.

Very cool gym! It’s pretty militant in there, not for the faint hearted. It has a bunch of great classes and instructors. (I’d suggest trying as many as you can to see what your into) Leah works there too and she’s the best ;)

L. S.

I have been going to Gymbox for over two years and it is the best gym I have been to in London. Excellent space for all types of training, fantastic customer service from all the staff and some super fun classes. On top of that, the music always keeps the energy up!

L. C.

Having been a member of this gym for around 2 years, I can say it is honestly like no other! Amazing vibes, energy and (most importantly) equipment, this gym even has regular DJs. The floor space is huge and caters for all different types/styles of training.

S. C.

I absolutely love Gym Box and highly recommend going. Cassandra has been such a fantastic support in the Gym Box team and really has gone above and beyond in customer care and support! Thank you so much <3

V. H.

Registered on the app. Booked my time slot. Temperature checked on the way in. People generally trying to keep their distance. I noticed most people cleaning down equipment after use too. Sanitaiser stations around the gym. All in all not a bad experience to be fair.

M. G. A.

Love Gymbox Farringdon. The facilities are amazing (so many squat racks!!) and the classes really good. From Strong(wo)man to yoga for weightlifting and all sorts of dance classes. Love the variety! Feels like going on a fun night out - workout! Really recommended.

K. T.

I'm so glad I joined Gymbox! The variety and quality of the classes are second to none and they have some great instructors. For what you get, I think it works out as really good value - particularly when you have access to more specialist classes like pole and trapeze, which can get expensive. Gymbox has been a gamechanger for me - I love it!

S.

Where do I start, this gym is what I think about when I think of the perfect gym. The awesome energy and knowledge that you get from the trainers here, they are eager to help and will to take time with you. Ambre was especially helpful in getting my membership up and running in the smoothest way possible, not to mention the fact that she invested a lot of her time to make me feel welcome as I'm sure she does flawlessly with every member. A definite recommendation from me!

D. N.

I've been a member for 2+ years now and have never encountered any problems. Great gym with top facilities and a massive gym floor so there's always room to train and you very rarely have to wait for any equipment. Staff are always friendly and helpful. 10/10

P. K.

Maria in the membership team was great in helping me get set up. I am looking forward to training at GYMBOX and being part of the Farringdon community. Thanks

A. ..

Recently joined and I am already addicted! Great vibe, live DJs, loads of fun and unique classes, trainers look after you and motivate you. Enormous gym with everything u need, love the boxing area. Clean and spacious changing room and sauna. I was a bit doubtful at first (Busy work schedule) but awsome Maria took care of me and signed me up in a blink, and I wouldn't take it back!

e. b.

Great gym and great vibes!! Been training Muay Thai and gym box for the last three years, loving every single workouts there!! Staff is so friendly and ready to help whenever you need them! A big thank you to the manager Ambre she is always so available and so welcoming😊

T. O.

Very good gym with wide range of equipment. Staff is very friendly, especially when signing up for a membership. Maria explained everything to me and was very helpful. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for the perfect gym in London!

C. H. S.

I've been a member with Gymbox Farringdon for a year now and I have never enjoyed exercise or been as fit. The new gym is amazing - has everything you could possibly want. I mainly chose this gym for its classes, and they deliver - new concepts are introduced regularly, the instructors are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful and there's something to cater to any interest and fitness level. It's clean, and there's loads of space in the dressing rooms. I would definitely recommend.

S. J.

Really good, however if you're new you need to go and get stuck in because it is full of the body beautiful. Free weight running track area is amazing as you can set up your own free weight circuit, whilst combining the imposing frame area for body weight exercises. Loud house music, free towels usage, lots of showers, but lots of bodies everywhere, and the toilets are a little like a Campsite in the morning tbh... definitely not David Lloyd, but good for hitting it hard.

L. F.

I've been a member of Gymbox for over 3 years and love it! The gym does get very busy at peak times, as any good gym would, but outside of peak hours it's much less busy and there's either little to no wait time for equipment. My own experience of customer service is exceptional and I've not had any of the same contract woes reported by others.

B. e.

Great gym. Am here everyday. They've got too much space and don't know what to do with it. I first started coming a few months ago but now there's more and more people joining. Typical gym guys go there who don't put things back think they shouldn't have to. A couple of proper vain people go there but you expect that in every gym. A selling point is they have 3 of every dumbell but they don't they've got about 2 sets and are missing a few. They must be done this in a hurry as the place leaks and needs some work done on it. It is a very good gym though had everything you could ask for. Boxing ring, running machines, lots of classes, water row machines, 5 squat racks. Lots of small areas to stretch as well. Overall good.

S. C.

I can't give them five 🌟 even though it's my favourite gym as we went for a day pass and all the classes were fully booked + the gym was a mess... No staff on the gym floor to make sure people return the weights to the correct place. I had to spend time looking around for the equipment as all the dumbbells for example were spread around the gym... My step machine didn't have WiFi so I couldn't watch any YouTube videos while I exercise (that's the least thing but just saying). In general I love the concept and as I mentioned it's my favourite gym but I compared to others and needs to be more tidy in the gym floor for me to give them higher rate.

D. F. Z.

Incredible Gym. I go to the Farringdon gym and the facilities are outstanding, the staff are friendly, everyone is there to get as fit as they can, and the sheer volume of classes available is monumental. I've never been a gym person but I find myself consistently excited to go.

B. T.

Very good boxing at facilities and trainers at Gymbox and ideally located for an evening or morning work out from work. It's a good price for what is offered and they have several other gym's in London making it ideal if I'm in another part of London.

S. A.

Amazing service, particularly from Dan. Like Arnie, I’ll be back!

T. B.

Beautiful facility with so much kit! You walk in and you just wanna workout. Motivating space thanks to all the friendly people there. Love the classes too when I can make them! WOD squad, Strongman and Ariel yoga are the best.

G. G.

Absolutely incredible gym. A variety of different areas to work out in with plenty of space even at peak times. The classes are excellent and there is a definitely something for everyone: from spin, to yoga, to rowing, HIIT classes and of course, boxing. Showers have plenty of hot water and changing rooms are clean. Staff and other members are very friendly. Would 100% recommend.

S. G.

Great gym with top facilities. Massive gym floor too so there's always room to train and you very rarely have to wait for any equipment. Staff all friendly and helpful too.

A.

The facilities, classes and team are second to none. From the first point of contact with sales guru, Maria, she showed great interest in the sport that I was into and was very attentive throughout the signup process and afterwards. I have been training combat sports for multiple years and this gym provides excellent trainers, with very well throughout class training structures.

M. C.

Awesome gym with great equipment but it Could be better. Can get very busy, especially with personal trainers everywhere. Not enough small plates, and you spend half your time looking for them. Lots of guys just sitting around on the equipment staring at their phones, texting etc. Not ideal at peak hour when you just want to train. Gym floor strewn with dumbells and barbells as nobody puts their weights back. Only 2 bench presses in this enormous gym is a bit of a joke too. Get some more flat benches and small plates and make sure people put their weights away!

E. K.

Great gym for those looking for gains. and by gains i mean muscle! Their classes at lunch time are 45 minutes (i'd prefer 55 minutes to ensure a longer workout), although the offer of classes are well balanced and they have good instructors. I'd recommend trying out their weight lifting/gains class to give you the lifting form and confidence to snatch and grab! The majority of the gym is made up of beautiful insta-grammers! My only comment is i would appreciate a lot more 3kg and 4kg free weights for classes as the jump from 2.5kg to 5kg is a bit much for some (particularly in ripped and stripped class)...!

H. B.

One of the best gym in London. Great classes (tough but fun), the gym facilities are well equipped with everything you can think of. Been a member for year years and still love it.

D.

Huge facility, and lots of fun. Have been inspired each time I go and very motivated. Only complaint is that it’s hard to find weights; they’re often thrown about all over the place if you go at the end of the day. Locker room wasn’t that tidy either on a Wednesday evening at 7; towels and trash. Update; downgrading rating - towels everywhere in the men’s lockeroom; and weights too. Would love some extra help from GYMBOX staff keeping the place tidy.

d. h.

This gym is the best around by a long shot all the equipment you need and great classes. Weight area there are a lot of members just leave weights around the place and never remove the weights from the bars once they have finished with them, i dream of a gym that educates their members on how to put the weights away when finished with.

A. D.

Staff : Super friendly and knowledgeable Gym : All top-class equipment needed to reach your goals- also very clean and tidy Classes: All very good - with experts leading- especially the boxing classes Overall this is the best gym in central London - hands down !!

K. N.

Fun gym with really nice staff and trainers. The monthly fee is on the high end but in return you get hundreds of classes every week to choose from and great equipment. I would give it a five star if the showers are a bit better equipped.

J. M.

I absolutely love Gymbox. The range of equipment is great and there are classes if you're unsure of what to do on your own. The best thing, however, is the staff. There are some really knowledgable and friendly PTs and teachers who have helped me make progress I didn't think was possible. The appeal of classes as well is that you see the same people every week so you get the opportunity to make friends which also makes going to the gym more fun!

D. B.

Have been a member for years, tried other gyms (that had pools as well) but have always come back to Gymbox! Love the classes & design, can’t see myself leaving anytime soon! Only thing that would be a bonus would be if there were hair straighteners in the female changing rooms!

B. B.

Love it, the best gym I've ever been to! Amazing classes, try the boxing, yoga and aerial series. Would get 5 stars if there were enough hair dryers in the ladies' changing rooms.

S.

Great instructors, fun & unique classes, spacious training area, and DJing in the gym...!!! There is no reason you don't join gymbox! Once you join, you will have a problem to socialise anymore lol There are so many good classes you can't skip!

D. A.

Really good, feels clean and safe, good equipment and a lot of it so there's no need to que for it Had few workouts with Anna, amazing very fresh and different to what I was doing, you can feel progress 💯

A.

This is a fantastic open plan gym. It. Has a lot of space. Great classes and friendly staff. Highly recommended it. Especially if you're looking for good classes and lots of barbells. Very powerlifting and olly lifting friendly. Also lots of space for CrossFit workouts. A bit dark but otherwise a perfect gym that is very accessible on the central line.

M. G.

There's so much I love about Gymbox, and this one is definitely my favourite branch! Don't be intimidated by how busy it can get at peak hours or by the fitness level of people at Farringdon - everyone has to start somewhere and people are generally really happy to share tips. Also, it is a true community and I've met so many friends there, especially through the aerial classes!

B. B.

I go to the holborn site, Great Gym, a lot of varied equipment & activities. The front desk and customer support has always been helpful in my experience. Mainly I'm happy because i've seen a genuine improvement in my own fitness since signing up, which I put down to the engaging atmosphere. The music and appearance although loud and sometimes a tad stressful help you stay active and not get lazy during workouts. I've had a couple of great experiences with PT's, giving me pointers on form and generally being helpful, one or two to the contrary but overall very good. The downsides are that it gets very busy during peak hours (As most gyms do) I often have trouble finding equipment on leg day (leg press, squat racks). Had couple of smelly towels and occasionally get pushed out of an area to make way for a class. All in all minor issues.

V.

Awesome gym with weights, cardio, combat and pilates/yoga facilities and more. I love variety in my gym as I like classes (cardio, combat and wellness) as well as weights and equipment. I've never seen such a complete suite of fitness facilities under the one roof. They've got a huge variety of classes and super new equipment as it's the newest addition to the Gymbox group. To top it all off, the staff are awesome, super friendly and welcoming. I'd highly recommend anyone who is serious about getting fit to visit these guys.

A. T.

Amazing gym with great equipment and a lot of space, good music, super helpful staff. 10/10 would recommend!

C. K.

Excellent gym, expensive but the available equipment makes it well worth it. Plenty of cardio equipment for those that way inclined, though the real attraction lies in the huge turf track, perfect from sled pushing and sprinting. Free weights kit is to the highest specification, with a large stock of Eleiko bumber plates and high quality barbells, as well as multiple full size power racks with lifting platforms. Dumbbells go up to 60kg, which is plentiful for most people, also has a large number of hammer strength resistance machines, as well as other brands. A functional area suitable for crossfit style exercise is also present, though I cant say I have ever used it. There are also multiple class studios as well as stretching areas, this gym is truly huge! The changing rooms are kept fairly clean, and in the time I have been a member I have only ever had the showers be a problem once. Some specialist equipment such as prowler sleds, farmers walk handles, a carry frame is present, as well as some strongman kit, namely a Yoke and a Pressing Log. My only negative things to say about the gym are: 1. It tends to get extremely busy in peak times, after half 5 till about 8 the gym will be exceptionally busy, and competition for equipment is not uncommon. 2. I have had some issues being able to use the strongman equipment, as it is used on Tuesday mornings and Thursday evenings for the "Strongman" class run by City Strongman, and whomever teaches this class has a habit of padlocking the equipment down, meaning it cant be used by other members, which can be extremely frustrating. I contacted the staff about this and they attempted to resolve it, however the class instructor has changed to padlock combination to one that was not known by them, so the matter is still unresolved. All in all Gymbox Farringdon is an excellent gym and I would heartily recommend it to anyone thinking of joining.

S. M.

If you want a gym that feels a little like an underground club, this is the place for you. The gym is huge with lots of equipment and facilities and loud pumping music from morning to night. Not that you would know which was which when you're in there. Classes are generally good with a number of gimmicky or wackily named options on the timetable that you need a key to decipher. Change rooms are spacious and neon bright. Love the sauna.

W. C.

Been member of Gymbox for 5 years in different locations. I could not imagine going back to other sterile gyms. Yes they are a little different, but I've not really experienced any poor customer service. To the contrary, I thought they are pretty friendly and helpful. Instructors are always willing to help you out without making you feel like you have to buy sessions. In fact, I'm constantly surprised I don't get pitched by them.. Can get very busy in rush hour, but what do you expects its central London? if you are able to get there outside rush hours its truly fantastic. May not suit pure aerobic / cardio trainers who needs more space (like the running track in Virgin Active Barbican) but for the typical gym users its a great gym. My main gripe is not with Gymbox, but rather that as a Pru vitality subscriber I can't use my gymbox sessions as automatic points generators as they are partnered only with Virgin Active. I'm sure this will change in future so in the meantime I need to train with a heart rate monitor until Pru truly start rewarding fitness, not just through their partners!

V. H.

I joined GB Farringdon in February 2016 and loving it. It is a huge playground for gym Freaks. Starting only with home gym I had to change the contract to all gym access because one wasn't literally enough:) Classes are amazing. Can't complain about anything because this gym has it all I was looking for. I even found my `gym family` there. Amazing people who can support me, encourage me, MY TEAM. The membership is worth all of the money.

The most well equiped gym I've ever been to and the high standard, varied classes always keep working out interesting. I came in particular for the combat sports classes on offer and all are of a high standard and offer a supportive environment for both casual training and those wanting to enter competions. The gym could seem intimidating for those new to fitness (most people are fit and look like they've been at it for many years), but rest assured most started as clueless beginners who developed over time. It's just a testament to the quality of the classes. My only criticism is that sometimes the club vibe means the music is too loud when you're trying to listen to class instructors giving you important information. It would be good if speakers could be controlled to have lower volumes in areas with classes. Also the music can be too loud to block out with headphones sometimes when it's not too your taste.

F. R.

Great gym with facilities are amazing. You have beginner classes but also the chance to train with professionals. On the negative side, it could be difficult to train during peak times

L. v. E.

Best gym I’ve ever been to

C. A.

Pretty much everything you need: great classes with very knowledgeable and motivational instructors, lots of space and equipment, and a vibe that pushes you to work harder. Not many gyms in central London will have a boxing ring, dojo, 25m track, tyres (for flipping), plenty of Olympic lifting bars (including enough 15kg female bars) and a packed class timetable. It gets busy at peak times but once you persevere through, it really does motivate you to be the best version of you.

V. D.

I really like it here. And you do get what you pay for. If you are on the ball you can get onto most classes and I'm currently enjoying 2-3 indoor cycling classes a week which would cost me a lot more in stand alone indoor cycling club. I'm quite self conscious but the staff are lovely and I've not looked back.

V. M.

I'm usually over critical whenever I leave a review but this time I have no hesitation in giving this gym a glowing 5 star review. I don't understand people complaining about overcrowding or lack of space. Gymbox is not your standard run of the mill gym: before joining, you are given the opportunity to visit it, try it (yes, the £20 one off fee IS expensive but what can you do...) and decide for yourself if it's right for you. Staff will do their sales pitch, of course, it's their job, but no one will physically force you to join. If you do, though, and then decide to leave a week later then you only have yourself to blame. As for the overcrowding this happens in every gym in London - this one, however, is just HUGE. So much so I was able to train chest on a Monday night at 6 PM, ie. peak time, without having to wait or queue. Gymbox will also listen to customers' feedback as they have recently address the lack of locker rooms and benches. The equipment is second to none, PTs are true professionals and classes look fun (though I don't really attend any of them...). The gymbox concept comes with a price tag of course, however, it's one that's targeted to a particular audience. There's always the likes of Pure Gym, The Gym, Easygym, Soho Gym or Virgin Active if you are looking for something different. I would thoroughly recommend this - it's a massive improvement from the old Farringdon club.

E. T.

Shiny new gym in place of a former car park snack in the middle of chancery lane. Both side of the gym are covered with food and pubs, so I guess you should take the hint to join the gym after splurging out on those calories. I go there for classes which are awesome. Ballet Barre, check. Barre bells. Yes ballet barre with kettle bells. Frames, gymnastic conditioning, pound (drumming cardio), aerial gymnastics, all sorts of weird and wonderful things. They even have a dedicated spinning room. Oh and those elastic band classes, yep they are back. Of course the main draw is the boxing ring which is super popular. They have Jujitsu as well. Not my cuppa tea but hey, it's there! Lots and lots of weights equipment, lots of macho men and ladies on those. They even have the climbing machine, that's all the rage now you know. Showers are decent, only a sauna and no steam room or swimming pool. Prices are expensive if you sign up now, around £80-100 per month. Strongly advise trying gumtree to see if someone with a cheaper membership wants to transfer to you. Only about £55 to transfer and you save that much money per month.

S. C.

The best London gym I've been to. Amazing range of classes, huge space, good music, fantastic personal trainers. Always incredibly clean and nice sauna.

R. D.

Since refurbishment this gym is fantastic. Loads of space, loads of things to do. Can usually do whatever you want even at peak times. The best quality equipment. Excellent gym

N. O.

Good gym with plenty of barbells, 6+ squat racks, lots of platform area and weights, although not quite enough for peak periods (e.g. 6-8pm on a Monday). More 1.25kg and 2.5kg plates are needed. You will spend a fair bit of time looking around the gym for the weights that you need as nothing is put away, or put away in the right spot. PT's set the standard here by being the worst culprits of finishing with equipment and walking away, without even a thought of putting equipment back in its correct spot.

R. W.

Great gym with a diverse amount of exercise classes to the backdrop of pumping music. If you're looking for a PT I can really recommend Niall Smith. Positive, amenable and really attentive. Has a great understanding of how the body works, helps identify any aches and niggles and cure them mid-session. Really impressive stuff. Motivates you and works you hard - top man.

T. K.

Not a member but had physio here and used the gym as part of that. Inconspicuous entrance leads to a massive underground gym. All the equipment is quality and looks well kept, probably why the prices are very high here. If you can afford it then looks a really good option.

V. U.

One of the best gyms I have ever been to offering a huge number of equipment, diverse classes focussing on all aspects of health from functional training to holistic well being. The facilities are clean and the staff is friendly.

m. s.

I've been a member for almost a year and have enjoyed every single session over there. The gym is clean, big, well equipped. The classes are great as well as the staff.

M. C.

Amazing place ! Special kudos to the highly friendly Dan !

E. C.

Always clean and friendly. A huge variety of classes and they are generally brilliant. Anyone looking to do Muay Thai should consider Gymbox as you have Team Tieu running the classes and the combat area is well equipped.

M. H.

Has to be the best gym in central london. Tones of space and quality equipment

C. R.

Best BJJ school in London. The teachers are world class, very attentive and knowledgeable. All students help each other and are very welcome and accommodating with new comers.

B. H. P.

Probably the best Gymbox site of them all, huge selection of weights, cardio and classes. Sauna is temperamental but a minor niggle. Staff are always great and friendly.

F. K.

It’s such a pleasure to descend into Gymbox Farringdon to be welcomed by Beth and Leah’s beaming faces. Such talented and hard-working employees. The gym is good too.

C. L.

I’m not a member but I visited the gym on a guest pass and the facility is second to none, Abby and the rest of the team were fantastic and they are taking extra care to keep in line with new covid regulations

l. w.

I have the gymbox membership which allows you access to all of the gymbox sites. Farringdon hands down is the best gymbox site as it’s so huge, the studios are laid out perfectly for the classes and the instructors are always amazing! 🤗

D. L.

Nice, spacious facilities with loads of options for different types of workouts. Locker room could be maintained more cleanly, consistently. More classes would be super as it’s hard to get in.

E. J. G.

Super fun gym with ever class and bit of equipment imaginable. I’ve been a member for 2 years and never looked back. Fab team and always leave happy.

M. M.

Great classes and staff but VERY badly designed - people have to walk through either classes in the center or in the rope area to get anywhere, which is dangerous. Also circus area should have been in high celininged zone, but, due to another design issue, is now in a studio with low ceilings. Poor GymBox obviously spent a lot of money on the interior here but they didn't really get what they paid for.

C. D.

High energy, plus low cost space available for people to rent.

L. H.

Great gym with better staff! Many gyms have all the right equipment these days. Gymbox Farringdon has both top end equipment and top staff too!!

F. P.

Easily in the top 1 gyms I've been to, this year. But honestly, the facilities are great, the staff are friendly, and the location is very good.

N. R.

Great range of equipment and a very sizable venue. Probably the best selection of machines and weights of any gym I've been to in this country.

D. W.

Superb gym - joined in Dec 2017 from Fitness First and have never looked back. Fresh, contemporary and fun - highly recommended with an excellent selection of classes.

K. S.

Love the classes here, which was what drew me to Gymbox over the other gyms in the first place. The instructors are world-class and make the classes fun. I especially love that Gymbox Farringdon offers BJJ.

R. G.

GymBox Farringdon is massive, got every machine you could dream of, I wanna do another Bike and Beats with Jade because it was sick, music was on point & she’s genuinely a propa good instructor you know ! But I defo need to work on my cardio because my stamina was slackingggggg!!! Lol it’s like a club ! Music popping, bare mirrors, it’s a vibe still.

V. K.

My first Yoga class was amazing! Equipment is adequate and there is enough of it for everyone. The class is well structured and not overcrowded. Lovely!

J. R.

Friendly and helpful staff (shout out to Charlyn and Karene). Inspiring instructors. Great variety of classes. Best gym in London 💪🏻🤸🏼‍♀️🏋🏼‍♀️🧘🏼

J. G.

Gymbox have done an excellent job with this very large space. A strong focus on functional fitness, with a large track and frame area, but plenty of room is dedicated to strength and cardio also.

R. H.

Quite honestly I find clientele and staff very pleasurable. The equipment good. Variety brilliant (classes) and instructors... Some come with titles like 4th best in the world, best in Europe. Pretty cool. Honestly if you like a buz while working out come standard peak times, if you prefer solidarity come off peak times.. It's not rocket science.

M. B.

This gym is fantastic and I must say the staff are helpful and knowledgable. Great selection of classes. Highly recommend.

K. s.

Absolutely legendary gym, friendly receptionist named Karene and the manager Daniel had finished but took his time to stop and talk to me. I was only passing through the area and so gutted I cannot train there more often. But I WILL BE RETURNING FOR SURE!

S. R.

A great gym - artificial gray's track for sled pushes and sprints, Good boxing ring and bags, and loads of weights and free weight areas. Great vibe and energy that gets you going.

A. W.

Great gym. Friendly staff. Huge space with amazing equipment. Definitely a great place to train and get results!

N. P.

I was the first through the door on the day it opened and I go for two hours each morning. Staff are very friendly and the space is amazing - love all the equipment. The only thing they need to get better at is fixing things, such as fixtures and fittings, as soon as they are broken. They also need more clocks up on the wall too.

I. K. (. K.

By far the best gym ive been to and would recommend those who are serious lifters and want to attend good classes. The only reason it doesnt hit my 5 star is because it lacks steam room in all branches.

C.

Best gym I've been to in London. Very good equipment and lots of free weight space

K. H.

Jades Spin ... wow o wow !!! what a way to start the day !! Jade is very helpful and so full of energy , she really knows how to keep motivation on a high and get the best out of her class. The tunes she plays are a major part in the whole vibe of the class, and really help you find reserves of energy to make it all so much fun ! Thankyou Jade x

A. H.

Very cool gym, great facilities and a buzzy feel to it. I tried out a wod squad calds with my mate and thought it was a good level. Shame I don't live in London.

s. f.

WHAT A WORLDY. Havent been in a gym in years. This was a welcome difference to people posing in mirrors and sitting on their phones. More classes than you can shake a stick at. Huge lovely space. GO!

H. B.

Best gym in London, I come out of my way to go to this gym. Beth and Leah are great, super helpful and so friendly

J. A.

Awesome gym- spacious, lots of equipment, great lighting and music

A. O. d. G.

In case there is anyone out there who hasn't heard about it, Gymbox is a chain of nightclub themed gyms. Lots of quality gear and well used space. Lots of people and relatively expensive too, but worth it IMHO.

M. P.

This gym rocks! Very large space, pumping tunes if that's your sort of thing, great equipment and superb atmosphere.

B. S.

Lively, enormous subterranean London gym with DJ, many classes and a vibrant atmosphere. A fun and friendly place with high energy to get your workout done.

M. M.

I just want to say how great Gymbox is and their all the classes are amazing.. especially the yoga classes with David Olton.. he is Amazing !

D. U.

Not sure why the reviews are so low, yes it may be a bit expensive but you definitely get what you pay for. One of the best gyms I've ever seen and absolutely massive

A. C.

Good gym with excellent machines and classes as well. I love the open space layout. The only problem is the membership cost, to me is expensive.

R. M. T.

Very large gym with good facilities and very clean appearance, particularly during Covid.

K.

Fantastic range of classes with some of the best instructors you will ever meet. Everyone is helpful and is a great place if you are looking for motivation.

F. M.

The staff are always happy to see us and so helpful . Such a good vibe when working out also ! Happy to be apart of the gymbox community 😊🙏🏼🥰

A. B.

Huge gym, well stocked with everything from traditional weights to a boxing ring, loads of cardio equipment etc, but the Olly lifting platforms, the gymnastic rig and the studios set this apart

D. A.

Great tour with Maria, informative and friendly. The gym and equipment looks amazing. Fully signed up for the year.

D. C.

Basically only have the membership for the classes. The teachers are amazing as are the people in the classes. Always great improving each week for months on end with a great group of people.

P. Z.

Been a member for 4years love the place. Always improving the place. No excuse not to train.... no better gym in London

G. N.

Fantastic gym. Loads of classes and brand new equipment. So big it doesn't feel cramped even at peak times.

L.

I usually split my time between here, Holborn and Ele - but the studios at Farringdon are probably my fave. The staff are absolute diamonds and I'm slowly working my way through the timetable (if you can teach me how to dance then that's proof you really are miracle workers.)

M. S.

Great Gym! Have to see it to believe it! Amazing kit, friendly staff and awesome classes.

B. F.

Love it here! The equipment is second to none. The place is huge. The vibe is great - there are some serious lifters there, and something for everyone.

L. G. R.

What a gym!!!!! Easily one of the best gyms in London by far. From staff to vibe to facilities just unreal.

R. C.

One of the biggest gyms I've ever been to with a great range of classes, weight area, frame, track, and then the rest

A. O.

Great gym, definitely amongst the best in London, great equipment and helpful staff! Top!

S. H.

Wide variety of equipment with a great training atmosphere. Easily the best gymbox club 🙌🏾

H. B.

Not really my cup of tea, had a free guest pass, and visited on Saturday while the equipment is great, the place seems to let of a rather pretentious vibe, I like to listen to my own music when I run, however there is a DJ booth in here, with the place representing a night club more than a gym, its dark more for people who just want to take selfies in a cool place, (only because I saw many people taking selfies #yawn) rather than get a good work out in. And as some one else commented on here, that this was a place for cool kids, not people new to gyms, I'm no newbie to gyms, believe me, I'm young 30s and already a veteran marathon runner, I don't go to the gym to look cool, I go there to sweat......

E. P.

Amazing staff (especially Maria). Great gym, overall fab place :)

K. L.

Good facilities! Great playground

F. P.

Great facilities for either calisthenics or weightlifting even circus or boxing. Probably the best in the city.

R. “. R.

loving it. got all the equipment. even at busiest times you dont seem to feel the people around. plenty of classes and all you would need. Only negayive thing i noticed, often runs out of shower gel.. or just not filled up in mornings... so better take your own.

d. a.

Brilliant..amazing array of kit. Very big and facilities are as best as you can get for a gym.

E. R.

I walked in today for the first time and was absolutely blown away by how big the place is! Not only that - it's super clean! Easy to understand why it's the flagship branch just for sheer size.

Z. Z.

Great trainers, best classes, and best team behind the club. Only gym I will train at in London
