Many thanks to Ludo for helping me out getting started and explaining all membership options.

Fantastic experience: I Love this gym, but mostly the people working there! Also the sauna is a great addition

Fantastic experience: I can genuinely say this gym has always felt like a welcoming, comfortable space. Firstly, a big thank you to Ludo, the manager, who has consistently kept everything running smoothly and always been approachable. The team members make such a difference: Dan and August create a friendly, positive atmosphere that really stands out, while June and Marco are always warm and welcoming at the front desk. Weronika’s classes are always fantastic, and Henrique and Irvin are always there to offer helpful advice on the gym floor. Even the new staff members like Mark and Riz always show a positive welcoming vibe. For anyone looking for a central London gym with a warm, friendly environment and a supportive team, I can’t recommend Fitness First Strand enough. Many of us have been here for years, and it’s truly the people and atmosphere that keep us coming back.

Fantastic experience: Super nice gym. Was in London on holiday and August hooked it up!! Nice clean facility. Staff was super friendly and I love this area of London.

Fantastic experience: Marco was really helpful assisting in using the facilities as my first time attending the gym. Major credit to the branch

Fantastic experience: Amazing Experience at the Fitness First Gym The Strand. All staff are extremely helpful especially Marco always welcoming guests and go above and beyond to help

Fantastic experience: I went to this gym based on location of my hotel. The gym was clean and has up to date equipment. Upon arrival I was greeted by June, she was a lovely person who showed me around the gym and made me feel welcomed.

Fantastic experience: I used FF at The Strand this morning on a day pass. Compact club with everything you need for a good workout and clean facilities. The best advert for the club is June on reception. Warm, welcoming and helpful. She was a fantastic ambassador for Fitness First. Thank you June!

Fantastic experience: Great gym ! I went there for a dance class with my friend and it was so much fun :) the staff is very nice and professional, and the equipments and location amazing, would definitely come again

Fantastic experience: Not just the staff, then equipment, the location and the value for money which is great, but the fact that you can watch TV while getting changed makes this the best gym in Central London. If you work around the Strand/Covent Garden area this is definitely the place to go. Shoutout to the amazing team there, Ludo, August, Weronika, Enrique and company. You guys are amazing ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic experience: Great gym, with top of the line equipment. The sauna is so good!

Fantastic experience: Amazing pilates class, very kind staff (shoutout to Ludovico for helping with gym access) and generally great vibe! Definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience: A great gym with all the necessary equipment, in a clean and tidy state. Most importantly the vibe created by the staff is supportive, encouraging and fun. Shout out to August and Sean who are always happy to help!

Fantastic experience: The gym is very good. Equipments are new, good space to workout. Loads of nice classes. The staff always helpful and friendly. August in particular is so responsive and always work his best to attend the needs. My absolute favourite person in all venues.

Positive experience: Gym is good. Not much queuing. All needed equipments are available. Crowd is good. Steam n sauna are nice and clean. Oxygen vents are a boon in summer. Trainers are too within themselves! Didn't like the reception staff.

Fantastic experience: This Fitness First Gym has excellent staff. All are friendly from the managers, reception staff, PTs to the cleaners. This makes the gym a great place to work out. Post the recent refurb it is well equipped with all the equipment required for cardio or strength training. Give it a try and you will be back quickly. David

Positive experience: Its my home ff so yes I enjoy the experience

Fantastic experience: Best fitness first in london .All the staff are incredibly welcoming , June especially,The members are friendly too , and that makes a huge difference .

Fantastic experience: I really like this particular gym branch with its v friendly / relaxed staff and clean facilities. There’s good equipment for an all rounded workout and encouragement from the trainers too. But I am in two minds about posting this positive review as the gym is already at full capacity during peak hours. Keep up the great work Ciaran, August, Sean, Weronika, June and your cool team.

Fantastic experience: Been coming here since lockdown was lifted and it services my every need. It's recently had a refresh with new equipment Staff are fantastic with a big shout out to superstar June!

Fantastic experience: The standout feature of this gym is undoubtedly the warm and welcoming customer service provided by the front desk team, with June in particular shining brightly in her role.

Fantastic experience: Great gym I will certainly be using next time I'm in the area good facilities and great customer service - I was served by June - thanks June!

Positive experience: Quick early morning workout to combat jet lag. I used ClassPass for cheaper access than purchasing a day pass. A good, clean, open gym floor with good access to equipment. I went at opening (6am). On a cold London morning, the sauna was fantastic before heading out.

Positive experience: I went here for a trial session. The gym is spacious and has lots of equipment. The only downside is how small the sauna is. Five people is the maximum number of people that can be in the room, and you are very close to each other. I had to wait until someone left before going in. There is ab rollers at the gym and two seperate benches for flat and incline presses. Spread out on one floor in the basement, it's better than gyms where equipment is spread out on different floors.

Negative experience: I use to enjoy going to this gym but since Feb they changed the tier system and whilst my home gym use to be the tier above, it no longer is. The man of the reception (Ludo) was really rude about the situation as though I was trying to scam the system when in reality I use to go there for 5+ years without any issues. In my opinion the refurb does not make it worth the extra money.

Fantastic experience: Ever since joining The Strand my fitness journey has been remarkably more enjoyable. The staff are super friendly, engaging and supportive. They create a healthy and encouraging training space making you feel relaxed and ready to achieve your goals. On visit you can expect a lovely greet from reception and a clean gym ready to use. I highly recommend The strand not only for new gym goers but to anyone who thrives in a positive, upbeat environment.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend this gym. Clean, friendly staff, great choice of areas to exercise, sauna, and it’s never too busy. Value for money

Fantastic experience: Super friendly staff. Enormous selection of clean and quality equipment.

Positive experience: Small but functional. All you need if you want a work out before going out in Covent Garden or anywhere in central London.

Fantastic experience: Been training down there a short period of time, really enjoying sessions and PTs. Lots of machines and space to work out and feel comfortable to do so. The staff are so friendly and welcoming! Really enjoying the gym and the vibe. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Such amazing, friendly staff and clean facilities, great experience!

Fantastic experience: Good vibes and friendly staff. Huge improvements in the workout zones compared to years ago! Well done

Fantastic experience: Staff and classes were really top notch, very good experience

Fantastic experience: Impeccable service through all the staff members of this gym, felt very welcome , hygiene wise is suburb, great atmosphere. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: An amazing gym with facilities like a sauna and classes to take advantage of. The team is very friendly and approachable. They provided plenty of assistance with offering advice and answer any questions. It has helped a lot with any preconceived notion I had that I would have to figure things out at the gym by myself.

Fantastic experience: It was very convenient for me as a tourist around Covent Garden area. The gym has what i needed. I would like to commend the staff especially June. She was very accommodating and helped me out as a drop in person. A complement of one day was a very nice gesture considering the price to pay for a drop in. She was very helpful and from my observation she loves her job just by how she interacts with the clients. Thanks June. You are a great asset to Fitness First. If you hotel has no gym around Covent Garden go to Fitness First.

Fantastic experience: Popped down to Fitness First with my daugter for a trial, I called in advance and spoke to August who was super helpful. I didn't expect August to be on the desk when I arrived, he made us both feel so welcome, I've been to other gym's where they don't even acknowledge you when you walk in, this was the opposite, also everyone entering seemed to know August. He explained how the gym works and where things are and to ask him if we needed anything. I was super impressed and am looking at joining ASAP

Positive experience: The gym and staff are very good and friendly but one thing that all members are very frustrated is that the pool and steam are on and off. They should fix the issue properly but now after every 2 weeks its close because of the technical issue.

Fantastic experience: As a frequent visitor to London I recently moved gym to Fitness First Strand and was pleasantly surprised at this gem on the Strand . The staff was uber awesome especially Jane Henrique and August. I can’t wait to rejoin when I make my UK visit next year . Best gym in London !

Fantastic experience: Lovely gym and team. Special thanks to June, August, Dan, Neil, Weronica, Kieran and Lee. Thank you, Farhana

Negative experience: email marketing tricked me into 3 months for half price. no mention of 12 months contract in the email offer, I signed up and now told that its a 12 month contract. would cost £50 + initial £35 monthly fee to cancel without ever having used the gym once would cost £150 to cancel after using the gym for 3 months. explained mistake to customer services and got the most heartless inhuman attitude. marketing like this is a complete scam.

Fantastic experience: Just done the Friday Shred with Shane. He is the best Shred instructor I have ever had. He motivated us to push ourselves to the limit and continually supervised our technique which encouraged us go the extra mile. Other trainers should learn from his teaching.

Fantastic experience: The best staff and the greatest place! Thanks to the incredibly kind, knowledgeable, helpful, approachable staff I can’t say enough good things about how grateful I am to this place. August was particularly above and beyond in getting me set up for membership and orientation and training help. But everyone was magnificent and the nicest people anywhere. I feel so so grateful that they helped me so much and went out of their way to do so. Of course the equipment is great and the place is spotless and quality of everything is ideal too. But the people and the vibe are everything and for that this must be the best gym anywhere.

Fantastic experience: Ozan is Very friendly, always smiling. Good vibe and energy. Well located and easy access. I’m happy with the equipment and variety. 100%Recommend. Tfixme

Fantastic experience: I’m having a really great experience at this gym. The facilities are fantastic, and I appreciate the variety of classes offered. The staff are friendly and helpful! I also want to mention August who took the time to show me around my first time at the gym, I felt welcomed right away!

Fantastic experience: Henrique is the best personal trainer, definitely talk to him if you have and questions or queries!

Positive experience: Not much variety of equipment, small gym. The red colour is a bit too much.

Fantastic experience: The facilities were top-notch, the staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and the wide range of equipment made for a great workout. I especially appreciated the clean and well-maintained environment, which created a motivating atmosphere. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned fitness enthusiast, it is an excellent choice for achieving your fitness goals. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great gym experience. Keep up the good work, Great place!!

Fantastic experience: Very nice and clean gym, perfectly located in Covent Garden - got everything you need! Recently done some classes with Ludovico and August - fantastic friendly staff!

Fantastic experience: Great facilities, better classes. August is very nice and so is Weronika. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Really nice gym, not huge but has everything one might need, plus classes/personal training. We just dropped in for a day as we don’t live in London but everything was straight forward. I would like to give a special message to June who worked on the front desk and who went above and beyond for us. She was very welcoming and extremely kind. Thank you very much for the warm welcome

Fantastic experience: Really friendly team and great facilities. The main studio is really big and has a great sound system. I host my JiggleFiiT classes here every Monday, and they are the best!

Fantastic experience: I came in with a friend who's already a member to try it out. The staff were friendly and helpful. The set-up was practical and had modern equipment. A special thanks to Enrique and August who are staff. They're an asset to your business.

Fantastic experience: Have been using this club consistently for nearly 2 years and would highly recommend! The team are so friendly, always happy to support and help with anything. The club itself is always clean and the vibe is great! I train in the mornings only and although busy, there’s always enough space. They have a fantastic range of classes and make everyone feel welcome and comfortable. The gym is a huge part of my life and I’m grateful to find such a decent club. Thanks to the team again

Positive experience: A friendly, clean and well equipped gym which included a studio and spinning bike area for the size of the gym. I had a good work out.
