City Athletic Reviews

Alistair Stranack

Best gym in London for sure. Always greeted by the one and only Moyra. Matt is the best trainer I’ve ever had and always look forward to our sessions. This place has genuinely changed my life!

Great gym with very clean and modern equipment. Nice changing room too. I had an issue with my Hussle Gym Pass, but Moyra and Matt were both incredibly helpful and friendly sorting it out. I'd definitely recommend.

I’ve been training here for a few weeks now and overall it’s been a solid experience. The equipment is modern and well-maintained, and I rarely have to wait long even during busy hours. The trainers are approachable and actually take time to correct form, which I appreciate. The only downside is it can get crowded in the evenings, but that’s expected for a good gym. Definitely worth checking out if you’re serious about your fitness.

Visited City Athletic whilst in London last week and was genuinely impressed. The location is superb, easy to get to and exactly where you need it to be in the city. The equipment selection is excellent, covering everything you'd want for a solid session without having to queue or compromise on your training.
The changing rooms stood out too. Modern, well maintained, spacious, and a cut above what you typically find at most gyms.
A special mention to Moira, who was particularly welcoming and helpful during my visit. That kind of attentive, friendly service makes a real difference when you're training away from your home gym.
Would highly recommend City Athletic to anyone training in London. Will definitely be back next time I'm in the city.

I’ve had a great experience at this gym. It’s very well equipped, with a wide range of machines and free weights that are always in good condition, so you never feel limited in your workout. The space is consistently tidy and well maintained, which makes it a really comfortable environment to train in. What stands out most, though, is the staff everyone especially Moyra who are always approachable, professional, and always super helpful whenever you need assistance or advice.

I love coming to City Athletic when I am in London. It’s a great gym with everything you need and the people are really nice. I was lucky enough to have Moyra make me an awesome protein shake post workout!!!

Gym is very nice and clean. Equipment is well maintained and locker rooms are spacious. Matt is the GOAT front of house and makes the best protein shakes. Vibes and music are great, especially when Moyra is on the aux. Overall, everyone is really friendly and the gym is great.
