Third Space Islington

Fantastic experience: Loved the experience! I came in and was welcomed by the lovely Adan who was super kind and made me feel welcomed, loved the experience and would 1000% recommend.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in London. Friendly & very helpful staff. So blessed to have it.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of Third Space for a few years now – love the classes, love the team and the warm welcomes and love the spa area. But the experience has been even greater since I joined for weekly personal training sessions a year ago. My trainer Vincent Tang was incredibly supportive from the first PT session. He was attentive, knowledgeable and carefully created a customised plan to suit my goals. I wanted to feel stronger, be more confident about weightlifting and have professional guidance on how to build strength over time. Not only has Vincent fulfilled on all of the above – but he was instrumental in my recovery following an ankle injury that meant I couldn't properly walk for 4 months. Vincent was immediately understanding and altered our sessions accordingly to aid recovery and helped to build my ankle stability, strength and confidence back week on week. I had the Inca Trail planned for September, something I was incredibly nervous about – but with Vincent's help, I was able to achieve this a few months later! Even my physiotherapist was surprised at how quickly I was able to be back on my feet! Vincent Tang is truly a credit to Third Space's Personal Training team and I cannot thank him enough for sharing his expertise over the past year. Every session is creative, challenging (in a good way) and I always leave feeling so proud and motivated afterwards. Not only do I feel stronger and more confident in my body – I now have an even greater appreciation for training and wellness. Thank you for everything, Vincent!

Fantastic experience: The best ever gym, the quality of classes and facilities is quite literally unmatched. The changing rooms are gorgeous, the spa facilities stunning, with special mention to the yoga instructors: Oceana, Echo & Meg

Fantastic experience: Really enjoy the facilities and spa - very excited for the new expansion and bravo to them for doing it !

Negative experience: They deserve zero stars after closing without any consultation of feedback the children's area, Little Space. A total stab in the back for parents that need somewhere during the weekend to take the children for classes, swimming, atc. This is totally anti-family. We feel kicked out and left out by this unempathetic management As someone who makes a living by analyzing companies and their business plans and without having their financial projections in front of me, It's diffiicult for me to envision how this will be profitable in the long run. Yeah, you can charge and arm and a leg, but they are losing massively from the families (avg spend iis 500 for a family of 3).So I only can think of massive fees increases (they just did). The investments to expand the adults area are going to be big too and the market iis what it s.

Fantastic experience: Luxury gym with clean and high quality equipment. Great to see a continuing investment in the gym and clear actions working on the problems of overcrowding by moving away from the Little Space concept to free up space and serve all gym goers better. A good decision for all.

Fantastic experience: Amazing facility, Spacious gym, clean, and well-equipped. Instructors really know their stuff. Staff are super friendly, and the café has a great selection.

Negative experience: I am very disappointed with the decision to close Little Space. I am a founding loyal member of this club for years now and also a working mom of two young children. Having Little Space allowed me to attend few classes a week while my kids were well looked after by the wonderful staff of Little Space. My boys really enjoyed great swimming lessons with Ziba and Lisa as well as other classes for the little ones. It was more than just a place for kids classes, it has really become a community for parents with young children. However Third Space decides to ruin this and chase profits over wellbeing of kids and their parents. And all of this is just to get Reformer Pilates classes, and few new members, while your existing members will have to fund gym expansion they don’t need ( membership prices have increased again! )This is very disrespectful.

Negative experience: Value new customers more than existing ones is never a good practice. As a founding member of the club (who waited for months for the club to open its doors) and the member who never frozen or canceled membership during covid, I was shocked to learn that little space will be closed. I see zero benefit for existing members, we are supposed to pay more per month to go to the club which will be under renovation for months to receive one new studio of reformer pilates while lose whole ares for our children. 600 kids will lose loved activities in order for you to get few hundred new members without children, complete disgrace. I have spent tens of thousands of pounds in your club since the opening (with all PT sessions etc.), but maybe my loyalty will be more welcomed elsewhere.

Negative experience: Third Space Islington was a unique gym in London thanks to its support to parents and families via Little Space. That was the core reason for my membership. The decision to cancel Little Space without any member consultation leaves little benefit versus less crowded more affordable gyms.

Negative experience: Joined several years ago, paying the pricey monthly dues, because of the all-in-one, family-oriented Little Space offering (whose staff are incredible). They’ve now decided to close down Little Space, restricting my ability to access their facilities as a working parent. Beware their flashy marketing to commit you to monthly fees, and then changing their core offering (for example, at the date of this review Little Space is still being advertised on their website next to “enquire about membership now” buttons, even though it’s shutting down in early April). In addition, facilities are far from luxury - workout mats falling into pieces, benches that can’t recline, battle ropes and weighed balls coming apart, lockers that don’t work.

Fantastic experience: This is a lovely gym; if you learn when to go, you can have the pool all to yourself! There a lots of scary looking classes for really fit people who seem to enjoy it for some reason. I just run and watch. The whole place is spotlessly clean and, best of all, the coffee is good and the people that make it have always got time for a friendly chat.

Negative experience: The facilities for children at Third Space were amazing. Now that they have decided (without consulting members) that they are closing Little Space, the gym is just expensive, crowded and showing signs of wear and tear. This decision is particularly inconsiderate to its female members since they are the heaviest users of their childcare facilities. We will be leaving.

Negative experience: This gym is oversubscribed and overpriced. We begrudgingly paid for the membership because it offered unparalleled swimming and exercise facilities for children. Now, however, Little Space will be closing—a sudden decision they made without holding a consultation with existing members. Surely the price tag would warrant listening to the members needs? We will be canceling our membership immediately.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym - the swimming pool is so perfect, as are all the facilities - the staff are super friendly and helpful - I feel refreshed every time visit.

Fantastic experience: Thanks so much to Charlotte Matthews for the brilliant PT session I just had with her. She’s very experienced and I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for improving their training skills.

Fantastic experience: I have been a Third Space Islington member for over two years and I absolutely can say that it is best gym I have been a member of. The quality of the classes are excellent and the instructors are just amazing! So knowledgeable and full of energy. They also recently introduced new workshops which I find interesting. The gym is beautiful, very well equipped and not too crowded. Very nice pool and jacuzzi. Great cafe and working area to relax after my workout. I visit the gym almost everyday and each time it’s just great!

Fantastic experience: Third Space Islington is truly an exceptional gym experience! The variety of classes available is incredible, catering to every fitness goal and level. The support and expertise within both the group classes and PT coaching teams are unmatched, making it easy to feel motivated and guided no matter where you are on your fitness journey. A special shout-out to Mary, who’s a fantastic coach! She has a knack for making each Speed Feinds session both challenging and fun, always bringing an encouraging and positive energy. Her classes are definitely my favorite—they’re the perfect blend of tough yet achievable, and she always pushes you to go that extra mile (or Kilometre ). Couldn’t recommend Third Space Islington more highly!

Fantastic experience: Been a member for more than a year and I can say that Third Space Islington is an amazing place to workout and relax. A special shout out to Rita and Adan who are always friendly and bring the positive vibe ☺️

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with personal trainer Dom at Third Space Islington for the past three months, and I’m pleased with the progress! He strikes the perfect balance between pushing you hard and focusing on safety and proper form. Dom is also excellent at adjusting exercises to suit my goals, which has helped me avoid injuries and stay consistent. I'd highly recommend him!

Fantastic experience: I love training at Third Space Islington, the variation of classes throughout the day/week means there's always something to fit into my schedule. Lift and Core classes with Natalie are my current favourite! I also love the sound baths, the shakes and relaxing in the sauna and spa after a class. Third Space is my happy place and retreat from hectic London life!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love this gym, the facilities and classes are perfection and they have a great range of healthy food, drinks and snacks, i'm obsessed with the snickers protein shake

Fantastic experience: Love having my membership @ Third Space Islington. Expensive monthly cost but I think it’s worth every penny. Recently had a fab PT session with Charlotte Matthews to prep for my upcoming Hyrox competition!

Fantastic experience: This gym is like a second home to me, love it here, could spend hours here. Its got a fully well equipped gym allowing you to train in the most diverse types of training from calisthenics to plyo to strength, endurance… like i could train for hyrox and a triathlon here. Its wicked. And they got steam room and sauna which is another feature that makes this place so addictive. The concierge team here as well are very professional and helpful, especially Sidney!!! She always has a bright infectious smile that automatically boosts your mood before you go smash a workout im always excited to train at Third Space Islington

Fantastic experience: Thara @ Third Space Islington was super helpful during my membership onboarding. Will be recommending her to my friends if they decide to join to club, as she was super responsive and helpful. Thanks!

Negative experience: For more than once was I appalled by the lack of professionalism at the food and beverage counter. The folks at the counter were almost always rude. I was constantly met with an unwelcome attitude. Miraculously, they seem to be equipped with basic hospitality skill when the customers are white instead of POC and I wonder why. The concierge at Third Space were nice most of the time but the employees at the food counter apparently need some basic cultural sensitivity training. DO BETTER Third Space.

Negative experience: Initially a nice place but then you soon realise that there is no luxury here, but a money making pit. Overcrowded, overpriced. Oversubscribed classes with no room to move. Signed up to Islington but due to overcrowding was forced to use other branches which became expensive and inconvenient trekking across to other parts of London for a workout away from my local area. Rubbish app, computer says no attitude by reception staff pushing you to communicate through the app. Inflexible cancellation policy even if you are 1 day late. They clearly have a pipeline of people signing up so making you pay for an extra 2 months when you are unable to use the facilities is a scam. A faceless business extracting money for shareholders. Don't believe the hype, most of these 5* reviews have been in exchange for a free club shake.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of ThirdSpce Islington and have enjoyed every single visit. The equipments and facilities are great, the staff are nice and the premises kept clean and tidy!

Fantastic experience: World class luxury gym and spa facilities. Had the pleasure of going to the Islington space last night and I thoroughly enjoyed my workout. I am very grateful to the attentive staff, especially Sally who made it her mission to help me find my lost EarPods case. Was able to relax and cool down in the state of the art pool and spa facilities after my workout which was a delightful experience. Thank you and please keep delivering such a magnificent service.

Fantastic experience: Third Space Islington is a fantastic gym, the facilities are amazing and always super clean. I love attending the classes, Charlie’s Monday Speed Fiends are a highlight!

Fantastic experience: Sally and Rita are absolutely amazing! Seriously they are such good people. The gym is the most luxurious I have ever been to! 10/10

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym - so many classes, and all the teachers are fantastic! The facilities are all excellent and make it a really enjoyable place to work out.

Fantastic experience: Loved training with PT Charlotte, I learned a lot from her sessions. Even as someone who already knows how to train, I learned so many new techniques to enhance my program and refine my form. I felt very comfortable with her and her insights were knowledgeable and motivating.

Fantastic experience: Jed, Ryan, Adan and the rest of the reception team are BRILLIANT they always keep my belongings when I forget them, let me in when I forget my card and are overall very friendly and quick to attend/respond. The protein shakes don’t taste fake but are actually made of real fruit - they’re like smoothies - pistachio strawberry, the mango one and Ferrero rocher are outstanding! The gym is very spacious and extremely modern each one has a tablet with personalised workouts. There is massage guns massage machines and presotherapy chairs to chill. The spa is probably the best feature as it has an ice bath/cold plunge, jacuzzi, big sauna and steam room as well as pools. The only thing I would love them to bring back is the kick-boxing and boxing classes by Thai world champion Marley Zanenberg. World class luxury gym!

Fantastic experience: As a new member, I'm impressed every time I step through the door of Third Space. The PT sessions I booked with Will Luckham-Down were so informative; he took the time to learn about my fitness goals and current fitness level before formulating impressively varied sessions. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: The best Third Space in central London, imo, as its spa area has the hydro pool and the cryo plunge as well as the swimming pool and the saunas + separate hot yoga studio. All the staff members are very friendly and helpful. Additional shout out to staff at the cafeteria - Enrique, Dennis, Eva and Gabriel, who always make me smile and make the best protein shakes!

Fantastic experience: Have to give a specific shoutout to the Islington Third Space concierge staff. They are always incredibly helpful and bring such positive energy to every interaction. Today, I had the pleasure of being assisted by Rita and Jed, who were fantastic and provided excellent support. A big thank you to Rita and the whole team for their continuous dedication and outstanding service!

Fantastic experience: Leo and Hatita helped me out with an account issue today with the best customer service. Friendly is not a good enough word for the experience. Leo has always makes a point to come say hi around the venue and always comes with the good energy. Great recruitment!!!

Fantastic experience: Great gym with staff to match. Clean, stylish with a good range of decent equipment, including a wonderful pool and sauna/ steam room. Fab showers and changing rooms. Sign up immediately!

Fantastic experience: I love this gym overall! I had a PT session with Ethan Chen and he was great. It was fun but at the same time he made me work hard. He understood my fitness goals right away and created a program to reflect that. Thank you Ethan.

Fantastic experience: I’ve had such an amazing experience at Third Space Islington this year! A special thank you to Jessica Alexander who ran the most motivating and fun classes, especially The Method and Dance Fit! Definitely the highlight of my gym sessions!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of Third Space for 10 years and it keeps getting better and better. A broad range of classes with the best instructors. Woodway treadmills. Great recovery equipment. Clean, luxe changing rooms. I recently had my first PT session with Nathan Chen at TS Islington. I thought I was strong and fit but came away from that session feeling like I’d worked and grown muscles I never knew I had. Nathan was so brilliant to work with, he pushed me, I really enjoyed it, and for me the results were immediate and impressive.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of Third Space Islington for some time now, and I can confidently say it’s an exceptional gym with great facilities. However, what truly sets this club apart is the attentiveness and professionalism of the staff. I’d like to give a special shoutout to Adan at the concierge. She is always incredibly welcoming, kind, and supportive. It’s this type of service, from people like Adan, that makes you feel genuinely welcome and makes all the difference in wanting to remain a member. The entire team at Third Space Islington is consistently outstanding, delivering the same level of care and professionalism. I often struggle to find places where I can truly disconnect from the demands of work, but at Third Space Islington, I’m always able to step away from the outside world and focus on my health and fitness. This balance between excellent facilities and a welcoming, calming environment is what keeps me coming back. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of Third Space Islington, which is a typically good setup as all Third Spaces are, since it opened and, more importantly, I have now been doing personal training with Ethan Sullivan there for more than two years, three times each week – Ethan is a superlative PT who puts together great, challenging and rewarding workouts and programmes, provides very useful encouragement and advice and accommodates such preferences and requests as I may have with nary a complaint, plus he’s a lovely chap to boot, very highly recommended (Ethan, that is – of course also the club itself)!

Fantastic experience: Great gym ! I love the sauna area and the cold pool . Sidney at reception is always super friendly and welcoming whenever I enter / leave the club .

Fantastic experience: Love Islington third space so much!! A special shout out to Charlotte who went over above for me and my friend; she noticed us training for Hyrox on the gym floor and coached us through it, taking time to walk us through the day and giving us invaluable nuggets of advice - it’s third space coaches like Charlotte that make it the best gym!! Thank you Charlotte!!!

Fantastic experience: Third Space Islington is a terrific club - it’s a beautiful space that is dynamic, but never feels hectic or too crowded. I value its friendliness and its inclusivity. The biggest plus for me are the classes which are really first class - I’ve been going to gyms and classes for several decades now (!) and the teachers here are genuinely some of the best I’ve ever experienced. Membership is an investment but one that I think is definitely worth making.

Fantastic experience: Of all the Third Space clubs I've visited, Islington has the best vibes by a country mile. I've been coming here for about a year so far. Ryan & the concierge team are fantastic and always look after me. A special thanks to Hatita & Rita who went out of their way to help me find my backpack that I misplaced! Also, I do love Bassanti's amazing sound bath classes & the spa hydropool is great B)

Fantastic experience: I wanted to join for the impressive timetable of classes they offer, and so I was delighted to find the classes are an excellent standard with highly experienced and welcoming instructors. The gym, changing rooms, swim and sauna are all of an excellent standard as well. The joining experience was a pleasure, I was well looked after by the very warm and helpful Thara Harrison, especially in light of some difficulties I faced due to ongoing injuries. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym, great facilities for the whole family. Most importantly, excellent personal trainers. Sophie Donald who specialises in pre & post natal training has been exceptional with me through my two pregnancies and recoveries. Her dedication and knowledge base around women’s strength training helped me to feel confident continuing to train throughout my pregnancy and also to bounce back after. She’s gone above and beyond in support by responding to questions / queries over text and providing home stretches and exercises to do throughout pre and postpartum. I highly recommend working with Sophie for any woman looking to improve their strength training.

Fantastic experience: As one of the club’s longest-standing members, I don't typically write reviews, but I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude to both the staff and especially to Rita and Ryan. They consistently provide the warmest and friendliest assistance, always going the extra mile with a smile, even on weekends. In my opinion, they are probably the best reception staff across all Third Space clubs. Thank you both, you're truly the best

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this gym. I’ve been a member for over a year now and have constantly been impressed with the experience. Everything about Third Space is exceptional and it is truly one of my favourite places to train. The staff are exceptional as are the facilities. I must mention Charlotte Matthews who consistently brings the best energy! She’s always offering of tips and advice, makes herself available to help whenever needed and also just goes out of her way to go above and beyond to improve the experience of members. For example bringing me water when she can see I’m deep into an effort on the bike! Highly recommend joining.

Fantastic experience: I really love this place. It is so well run, the staff are very friendly and helpful. It is always very clean, the facilities are great, there is also a large selection of classes. The changing rooms are excellent with lovely fluffy towels, nice shampoos etc and I look forward to going and spending time there.

Fantastic experience: This is a lovely, well-equipped club with particularly outstanding staff - we are lucky to have this facility in central Islington (but I am still trying to dissuade them from booking out parts of the pool for child swimming lessons). Apart from that

Fantastic experience: Third Space is a nice gym, as you’d expect. This review is more for one of their PTs, Will Luckham-Down. I’ve been working with Will since the beginning of this year and think it’s one of the best things I’ve ever done for my wellbeing. Left to my own devices I could never have made as much progress or been as consistent. Will is amazing at his job. He designs well thought-out programs, provides really clear instructions, is eagle-eyed on form, and has seemingly endless reserves of positivity. I’d recommend him to anyone without hesitation.

Fantastic experience: Could not be happier with this gym. Super well maintained, great classes, great equipment, and just generally a nice space to be in.

Negative experience: Not happy with this gym at all. I’m not sure how many issues they’ve had just this year with their app, aircon, etc despite their insanely high membership price. They don’t have enough variety of classes, they don’t even have a single combat class in Islington, even with lots of suggestions to bring more variety. Also now that I have to cancel due to financial hardship, it took them 3 days to even respond to tell me that they still have to charge me another month and a half?! Super super frustrating.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Third Space for a few years now but didn’t have any direction in my training, only going to classes from time to time. My fitness goals were vague - to feel stronger, build confidence and look more toned, but I wasn’t sure where to start. After going to a ‘Learn to Lift’ small group class run by Vincent Tang, I decided training with a PT would be a good idea and thought Vincent would be a great fit as he is very patient, his explanations were very thorough, he was very encouraging and had meticulous attention to detail. I’ve been training with Vincent for almost a year now and feel stronger and fitter than I’ve ever been! I really look forward to every session. Training is extremely varied, from weightlifting to rings to handstands to focusing on mobility, so I never get bored and always feel challenged. I come out of each session feeling exhausted (in a good way), much happier and more confident. I recommended Vincent to my sister who is also now training with him, and would definitely recommend him to anyone else looking to build strength and confidence. Thanks so much Vincent!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member for 2 months now and my experience is 10/10. I highly recommend this gym to parents on parental leave, which is my situation: they take babies as young as 3 months old in their state of the art crèche, you can book family swim sessions and swimming lessons for the entire family, and you can enjoy a class and a swim whilst your kids are being looked after. The crèche is Ofsted registered and everyone there is great with my son (Leanne, Ann Marie, Drew - just to name some of the staff). The PT team is excellent - I’m currently working with Maddy Weaver who has great experience with post partum workouts and getting back into shape safely after having a baby. The concierge team is very helpful and is always ready to address any issues or help out with anything (for example, when I wanted to bring my older daughter as a guest, or when the Third Space app was down) - Chantel in particular is great. The hot yoga studio is excellent and the 20 metres swimming pool feels like luxury. The way I rationalise the £245 membership fee is as follows: I’m on maternity leave (company paid) so Third Space is my place to look after myself and unwind. I know that I’m leaving my baby with a professional team in outstanding facilities and that he’s safe whilst I enjoy a nice workout, long swim, or simply a protein shake after some down time in the hydro pool. I wish I had done this during my first maternity leave.

Fantastic experience: Has completely changed my outlook on the gym. There's an amazing variety of classes and the trainers have all been brilliant. Very inclusive and not intimidating at all – I've never been so motivated to go to the gym.

Fantastic experience: I.m such a fan of all of the Third Space gyms - they are all extremely clean and well maintained, management listen and respond to feedback, club improvements are made regularly, and the classes and instructors are among the best I've ever experienced. Cant recommend it more.

Negative experience: Unfair Treatment and Poor Service at Third Space Gym After being a loyal member of Third Space Gym for over 10 years, I am deeply disappointed by the unfair treatment I recently experienced. I feel compelled to share my story to highlight the lack of professionalism and respect towards their members, as well as what seems to be a violation of the membership agreement. The issue began when I accidentally left some personal belongings at the gym. A cleaner found my items and handed them over to the concierge. However, instead of storing my belongings, the concierge inexplicably disposed of them. When I asked for updates and requested access to the CCTV footage to clarify what happened, I was told that the matter was closed and no further information would be provided. I escalated my concerns to the head office, hoping for assistance, but was met with indifference. When I later emailed manager, David, to l request report of their investigation of CCTV footage, rather than addressing the issue, he abruptly cancelled my membership, accusing me of harassment—an unfounded and unreasonable accusation. Despite reaching out to the head office multiple times, they failed to take any action to resolve the situation or restore my membership. To add to the frustration, when I requested a copy of my membership contract, I was told that due to internal notes on my account, the office team was not allowed to speak to me. Despite submitting a formal written request, my contract has still not been provided. This treatment is not only unjust but also completely unacceptable. Being a member of Third Space Gym for a decade, I expected a level of professionalism and respect, but instead, I was met with disregard and disrespect. The way this situation has been handled shows a clear lack of customer care, and it raises concerns about how the gym values its long-term members. I can no longer recommend Third Space Gym based on this experience, as they appear to dismiss legitimate concerns and fail to treat members fairly. IN RESPONSE TO YOUT REPLY TO MY REVIEW: I am appalled by your response claiming that the matter is now resolved. This is simply untrue. My membership was unfairly cancelled without justification, and your reply stating that the issue is resolved is both misleading and disrespectful. How can this be considered resolved when my membership has not been reinstated, and my concerns remain unaddressed? Your response is not only inaccurate but also shows a complete disregard for fairness and transparency. I expect my membership to be restored immediately, as there was absolutely no valid reason for its cancellation. This ongoing situation, combined with your unfounded claims of resolution, is disgraceful and demonstrates a serious lack of integrity on your part. Please reconsider your stance and act with the professionalism and respect that members of your gym deserve.

Fantastic experience: Naturally, I was not looking forward to the extraction of a back tooth in the highest of spirits but Dr Hannan made the occasion an underwhelming and pain-free event for which I am very grateful. I would not hesitate to recommend Siha dental having received a high quality of care and service from all staff throughout my appointment.

Negative experience: 1) Had a protein shake from NFF Natural Fitness Food onsite which contained blended bits of plastic pieces - response from the NFF team is to deny all responsibility and pretend that it never happened 2) Very crowded in general and especially at peak times 3) Third space app is often down with technical issues - barrage of complaints on this on all media channels While some of the facilities, personnel and classes are quite nice, the experience is overall disappointing given the above - this is one of the most overpriced gym memberships in London - £245 per month - instead of getting the basics of customer service and food safety right they consistently focus on raising prices, opening new sites and spending on more advertising. Standards have slipped drastically.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member here since it opened - such a great facility! More recently I’ve started to use Personal Training with Dom Wilson at the club. He’s been excellent, and I would thoroughly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I've been a Third Space member for several years now. Islington is definitely among their bigger and better appointed gyms and the pool is enormous. You probably already knew that so here's something less visible from the outside: The PT cadre here is solid. I started sessions with Will Luckham-Down originally at City as a swim PT (where he does visiting swim sessions). You could tell he swam nationally and has adopted his experiences with elite sports coaching into his own approach. His affirming and perma-enthusiastic coaching style is combined with really good demonstrations and explanations of the biomechanics involved (without bombarding you with rote-learned Latin names for individual muscles, as some are tempted to do!) - especially handy when trying to improve swimming where technique is key and worked well with my learning style. So I decided to engage Will for gym PT as well, and couldn't recommend it more. I leave every session feeling I've learned something I can apply on my own and that I've made progress. I get the sense from catching glimpses of other PT sessions going on around me that I'm not the only one pretty chuffed with their PT at Islington: above all I get the distinct sense they are a really tight team and learn from each other's specialisms in a way I haven't really seen elsewhere. All is to say, if you're looking for a good gym with a good crowd with lots of space (save for the occasional and inescapable London gym rush hour crunch) and a good adviser for your fitness journey, give this club a try and, if he's got space, see if Will's free.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training at Third Space Islington for a couple of months now and I am really enjoying it. Good environment, great facilities and classes. I highly recommend Dom for 1:1 sessions if you’re looking for an extra push - every session is different and he takes the time to listen to what you enjoy and what you’re trying to achieve.

Fantastic experience: Been training at the club for a good few years now and recently started working with Will who’s been doing a great job with me - really enjoying the sessions and has been great especially with my recovery from ACL injury.

Fantastic experience: Third Space is the best gym/club I have ever been to, I really don’t think I could ever go anywhere else now!! All the classes are just the highest standard and every single member of staff is always so friendly!!

Fantastic experience: Personal Training Review: Had my first ever personal training session with Ethan Chen. A brilliant trainer who really listened to my goals, showed ways to improve technique, how to adapt for injury, and ideas for exercises I’d previously not done. If you’re looking for a trainer I’d definitely recommend reaching out to Ethan.

Fantastic experience: I joined 3rd Space in May this year and then Started Training with Will Luckham-Down at Islington. I had Bilateral Quadriceps Ruptures after an accident and then surgery in October.So started really Walking In January. Will really took on board my injuries and has helped my recovery and Confidence in the Gym. I’m in my 60s and had never been to a gym! I think I’m actually fitter than I have ever been. He makes Training Fun and encourages me to push myself. I always feel safe and look forward to the sessions. Also a shout out to the staff and the Housekeeping team. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym with great facilities! I especially love the personal training with Will, my sessions are always challenging but fun and I can really feel the difference since I started.

Negative experience: Sadly Third Space has fallen from the grace from when it first opened (since I’ve been a member). Not only has there been THREE price increases over the course of a year, the gym is completely oversubscribed and isn’t luxurious when there are lines for the sauna, showers and steam rooms. Many of the great trainers have left. The Hot Yoga room is along a hallway to the Little Space, so you can often hear screaming and wailing children whilst in a class. The studios are far too small for the number of people in a class (which I know they do to maximise people being able to join the class), but when you’re within a few inches of someone else’s sweat, it’s absolutely not worth the >£245/month price tag. Showers, equipment are in disrepair and the etiquette of new members is appalling. Previously you could use guest passes for access to other 3S, but this changed. Clearly the change in ownership a few years ago to PE has meant really squeezing the experience to maximise profit. There are still some good facilities and it’s not a bad gym, but the value for money has completely changed and it’s no longer worth the exorbitant price tag. A second location in Angel/Highbury or a drastic expansion is required to make up for these issues Like many other comments - far too little, far too late. Also - before I get a personal reach out reply from third space, please be aware that I sent an extremely detailed and constructive email upon my cancellation for any opportunity for anyone to reach out to me. And don’t believe the recent 5 star reviews - those are for exchange for Free Shakes. Plenty of one star reviews all stating the same problems. Shame that they are just trying to drown out constructive, authentic reviews with incentives.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member here since it opened and it’s the best gym experience that Ive had. The club has a fantastic vibe and the trainers are brilliant - special shout out to Patrick Wilson for PT/running training, super insightful down to earth and Jed at the front desk who is awesome and always welcoming.

Fantastic experience: Gym and pool are great but frankly the most outstanding service here is the Crèche. Leanna and her team do such a fantastic job looking after children from as young as three months which is an absolute game-changer for new parents. Big shout out to Drew, Anne-Marie, Shai, Iman and all the team for looking after our daughter so beautifully, she absolutely loves it.

Fantastic experience: Such a lovely gym to go to! So clean and sanitary. Staff are so lovely and welcoming-always happy to help!

Fantastic experience: I recently joined Third Space (having previously been doing outdoor sessions with a personal trainer). The main pull for me was being able to do many different types of class (for the same price as a PT). I haven’t looked back. Been doing cycling, yoga, HIIT and some Plyometrics. On top of all the amazing included extras like massage guns and body analysing machines. At first I wasn’t too sure about how gym membership would go for me. However I have found the class sessions really invigorating upbeat and fun. I really look forward to going to the gym now (words I never thought I’d say). Particular shout out to Hannah Baglee’s HIIT Force Class. I really enjoy going every week , the class is always super friendly and also super challenging. My endurance has noticeably increased when I participate in my normal sports. Also I really enjoyed the Plyometric Workshop with Patrick Wilson. And will definitely be doing a few more.

Fantastic experience: I've recently had a couple of training sessions in the Islington Third Space with personal trainer Matt Dwornik. He has been really great, he listened to what I was looking for and came up with a detailed and tailored schedule. I would highly recommend Matt to anyone who is after a personal trainer!

Fantastic experience: I’ve sampled all of the Third Space branches .. and this is my favourite by a landslide. Really positive energy and the staff are especially kind. Today Dennis and Irfan looked after me at the Natural Fitness Food.. lovely boys who I always look forward to catching up with. So fond of so many reception and NFF staff .. Very lucky to have it as my gym. : )

Fantastic experience: Best gym I've ever belonged to! Great facilities, pool, and sauna. I've particularly enjoyed working with a PT, Kamal Ricketts, who has been helping me build a workout plan to improve my flexibility and strength after an injury.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in Islington! Yoga studio / pool / sauna / steam room / quality classes. All worth it. Ashley Ahren’s yoga classes are always so great.

Fantastic experience: Just joined Third Space and absolutely love it! The gym itself is beautiful with brilliant facilities from the gym floor to classes and changing rooms. Never have to wait for equipment and everything is cleaned immaculately. The team are also always so lovely and helpful. Aicha especially has been very assistive from the first day.

Fantastic experience: Recently joined, little space is really nice clean, and never too busy! Ideal creche so I can do my workout. Great kids class and have enjoyed some of the adult classes too. Great facilities have all that you need to keep fit and keep the little ones busy!

Fantastic experience: Easily my favourite gym across Australia and the UK. Love both the gym floor and the classes - big shoutout to Meg's hot yoga and sound baths which are simply divine. Everything has that little touch of luxury and it's so easy to spend hours here each week. The biggest fan! x

Fantastic experience: An overall great club with impressive and welcoming staff. I suffered from an extremely painful slip disc and a nerve pinch, but with my PT Kamal Ricketts, he helped me not just physically get back into shape, but build my confidence back through a new framework of understanding. I don't just work out - I learnt HOW to workout and I'm much more in touch with my body than I've ever been, which is the best motivator I can ask for :)

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym - incredible facilities, high-quality instructors for classes, and very importantly for our family, a great kids space & kids classes that make it a place we can all spend time. Can’t recommend it enough!

Fantastic experience: Great gym space, fantastic classes and even better PT sessions with Sophie Donald who helped me feel stronger and in better shape after my first baby.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of Third Space for a year and the Islington Club is by far my favourite - the reception, cleaning and Natural Fitness Food staff are always so lovely and welcoming. The facilities are great and having so many different options of classes with great instructors is amazing. I also recently did a PT session with Raphael Debnath who was not only kind and accommodating, but was so knowledgable and put together a really robust and comprehensive training schedule for me. He was able to tailor the training schedule and exercises to suit my varying energy levels (due to chronic fatigue from long covid, so if any is looking for a trainer with experience in this area I would highly recommend!) and made sure I was comfortable with the plan. I cannot recommend both Raph and Third Space enough!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this gym! The classes are fantastic, offering a great variety to keep things interesting. The spaces are gorgeous and well-maintained. The staff is incredibly friendly and always ready to help. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Puts all other gyms to shame. Everything is top notch and simply makes you want to spend more and more time there...From the massive gym space with every piece of equipment you could imagine, great classes, wonderful pool (which always seem pretty quiet), to the extremely civilised changing rooms - it's all just great. Special shout out to Sally the duty manager who is always incredibly helpful and just brings all the good vibes. Sadly I've recently moved to Paris so can't come as often as I'd like, but very much hoping the Third Space crew will do the decent thing and open a branch over there too...PARIS NEEDS YOU!

Fantastic experience: I recently joined Third Space and I am loving it. In particular though I’d like to recommend PT sessions with Patrick as he really pays attention to how you move and makes sure to highlight the importance of learning to do exercises correctly, ensuring you get the best out of everything you do. Everything is done with humour and care. Thanks Patrick!

Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of working with Matthew Dwornik as my PT. He is immensely knowledgable and very friendly. He provided super guidance and helped design an exercise and mobility routine that suited my needs and ambitions for my training. I would really recommend him to anyone looking for a PT.

Fantastic experience: I joined Third Space after years of physical neglect! It felt a little daunting but the personal trainer that was recommended to me -Patrick Wilson -quickly helped me feel comfortable. He is most knowledgeable and personable. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Fantastic experience: I couldn't recommend Third Space Islington more. Amazing facilities, decent floor space with state of the art equipment and incredible trainers. I specifically choose classes because of the trainers - thanks Jess, Paolo and Meg!

Fantastic experience: After working, Training and relaxing at third space for the past 9 months I can safely say it’s been one of the best Gym experiences I have had ever, I’ve been to multiple gyms high end to low end (Puregym, Gymbox, David Lloyd’s) and none of them top then facilities and workout spaces that I experience in Third Space. Firstly one of my most positive points to speak on is the care within the gym itself Third Space Islington specifically is a very clean gym and I give thanks to all of the cleaning team especially the ones I have come to know well enough to greet on a first name basis Jhon and Dani I have trained with them previously and not only are they great at work but as people are outstanding representatives of the gym. Secondly at the concierge desk where I spend the least of my time I believe her name is Rita (Lady with long black hair is best way to describe her right now) always be rey helpful whether it’s with an issue out of hours of NFF or with my gym membership anytime she is at the reception she is always willing to assist me and make sure that my experience in the gym is completely fulfilled and for that I am extremely grateful Last but not least at the NFF counter themselves each and every one of them go through the effort of making sure that the shakes are top notch and that the food is always fresh and even though there’s all lot of them I could name (I’m not sure of all there names haha) Joe is definitely one of the members of the team that has given me a memorable experience in Third Space always looking after me when it comes to what I order helping me improve my orders to my liking too has made my gym experience feel unique and and personalised to me which is a very great feeling. Not only that but he also has great potential to be a brilliant trainer if you ever come across Joe in the gym be sure to give him a thumbs up and if he’s ever making your shake don’t doubt him if he tells you something is better than another he is probably right! All in all I could compliment and appreciate every member of staff for what they do and why they do it however that would be a lot to read so to conclude the review. Third Space Islington is the best gym experience that you could have within London and given the opportunity you would not want to miss out.

Fantastic experience: Amazing club with immaculate facilities, great equipment and classes. I love the pool and wet spa. The staff are excellent and always lovely!

Fantastic experience: Really fantastic gym! The facilities are always clean, and even when it is busy, it feels roomy. The Little Space area is a favourite of my kids. I have also been working with Sophie Donald, a personal trainer specialised in women's health, especially before and after pregnancy, and she has been phenomenal. Thanks to her I am starting to get back into shape. Even though I am not much of a fitness person, she is so friendly and supportive that I look forward to working with her every week. I definitely recommend this club and Sophie!

Fantastic experience: Matt Dvornik went above and beyond to tailor his service for my rehabilitation needs. He’s especially friendly and easy to communicate with. I hope to see him again very soon! Pauline

Fantastic experience: Personal trainer Ethan Sullivan is the best! Since the start of my sessions, my confidence and attitude towards health and fitness has vastly improved. His incredible technical expertise and commitment helped to quickly instil exercises and a routine that suits me well and from which I have greatly benefited. In fact, training slots became sacred. Neither family, friend nor work could get in the way! Ethan is patient, fun to work with and worth every penny.
