The 30 Best Cardio machine in London

“I took my boy for the soft play session and he loved it, he didn’t want to leave, I wish I knew about this soft play earlier as it’s local & affordable price. There’s so much to keep little ones entertained.”

“I visit the leisure centre week days for a 6:30am class with Janie or Favour and have done for just over a year now. Classes are brilliant and so motivating! Bootcamp, circuits, body conditioning and cycle to name a few. The new facilities are great and it’s perfect for getting it done early. Janie is just amazing! I have Janie to thank for my love of exercise, she is so easy going, friendly and encouraging. Exactly what you need at that time in the morning. Favour is also amazing, he really pushes you out of your comfort zone and makes classes enjoyable.”

“My home gym of several years with improvements made under the new management with increased investment. Friendly staff and instructors with an all-around nice gym community. Huge thank you to Peter and Athony who went above and beyond to help me during my visit today after an incident on one of the machines. I was really worried, but they were really calm and resolved the matter. I truly appreciate the help.”

“The gym has everything you need, Various types of equipment, swimming pool, Jacuzzi, Steam and Sauna rooms. Very clean and staff is super friendly. Also the quality for price is really worth it. I recommend it if you live in the area”

“I'm going to this gym since 15yrs,Never had any issues.Big and lovely space to use ladies have they own place, and price is good too, Yes they used to have everything but after lock down I think they only focusing on gym. Staff is always Helpful, and never had any issue with the Management actually I seen many times owner is walking around the club, checking the things, talking with members and he Dose the workout too. Overall I'm happy with Manor Gym.”

“Incredible amneity in the area. Sure, it's not perfect but there's a large pool for lengths, separate toddler and fun pools. Sauna, steam room. Great soft play. Easy to book it all online. I think most of the negative reviews complaining about cleanliness would be more appropriate for £100+/month gyms, which Wavelengths just is not. I've not noticed the soft play being dirty, nor the pools themselves.”

“I visited for the first time today for the free Tower Hamlets women’s swimming. I was hesitate over the previous reviews but I had a great experience. The pool was quiet (6ish), the showers hot, lockers available for a 20p coin (you don’t get it back) and very easy to go straight in and out. Lots of kids in the kids area which is great to see it being used.”

“Great outdoor pool, children love it. There is a nursery on site with 2 hours per day included in the membership. We have been members for 2 years already, with health insurance there is a big discount. Lots of improvements with new management now.”

“A friend and I only came here (from Hockley, near Southend) to use the showers after having run the Epping Forest 10km. We had been prepared to pay for a day pass, but also wanted to use the swimming pool to make it more worthwhile. However, when we asked at reception, we were informed that there is no swimming pool. We explained what our intention had been, and the lady on reception very kindly allowed us to use their showers free of charge. We were extremely grateful for this as we wanted to stay in Epping for the afternoon as this is where my friend's dad was from, and he had very recently passed away. I've no idea what the rest of the facilities are like, but the showers are great.”

“I can't recommend Renate enough! I feel so cared for by her. She is warm, open and non-judgemental. Being able to have monthly sessions with her for a little while has become quite essential to my pregnancy journey. It has been such a lovely experience with her, and each session I feel like she has understood me and my body more, and treated it with care and respect. Thank you so much Renate!”

“My daughter has been there for 7yrs now. Great experience for her. Good variety of equipment for her to try & staff are very friendly!”

“Finchley Lido Leisure Centre is an excellent place for fitness, relaxation, and family fun. The facilities are always clean and well looked after, and the staff are friendly, helpful, and professional. The swimming pool is spacious, with warm water and plenty of lanes, making it great for both casual swimmers and regular training. The gym offers a wide range of modern equipment, and the atmosphere is welcoming for all fitness levels. I also love the family-friendly areas, which make it easy to enjoy a day out with children. Overall, a fantastic centre that offers great value and a consistently positive experience.”

“A place where you can spend a great time with your young ones. This facility offers a lot of activities for both adult and children which includes swimming training or just a quick dip into the pool with your babies. The pool is also accessible for individuals with special educational needs which is really amazing. The huge slide inside is also worth to try. Just do not forget to bring a coin to access the lockers; you can get your coin back before you leave. Baggy park, vending machine and cafe are also available inside. You might not be able to bring phones or camera to take photo inside.”

“If you want to have a really nice and relaxing massage given by a very experienced therapist. I definitely recommend you Shifa therapy. She does an excellent job. Moreover I had a frozen shoulder and pinched nerve issue and was supposed to go under second surgery in a year. But two sessions of physio therapy with shifa saved me from surgery. Feeling much better . I strongly recommend you to visit shifa therapy.”

“Having used the Malden centre since I was a child it has always been a community based venue. I found Mohammed at the reception most helpful with bookings very polite and professional. The website could be clearer about how to book as sometimes slots are not showing.”

“Got great memories of coming to this place between 2010 - 2013... All the old staff were cool. Daniel Doyle (I think that is his last name), a lady called Simone (who was my dedicated trainer) and there was a black gentleman called Thomas (I think) but I could be wrong; he was actually a personal trainer but he gave me amazing free workout advice which I still incorporate to this day. I remember other staff faces but I dont remember their names! Wish them all the best wherever they are now. Crazy how time flies.”

“Have been a member at this gym for 4 years now and I really love coming here. The equipment is decent, the gym space is good, plus a studio upstairs with everything you need for a basic workout. Good range of machines, free weights, stair master, rowing machine, treadmills, barbell, punching bag, etc. Staff are always friendly, welcoming and helpful. This is a great gym for the area and I think it is worth the price. A full gym, studio, swimming pool, jacuzzi, steam room, sauna plus free boxing class and yoga classes. There is also the spa where members get discount on treatments and the restaurant too. Overall I think it's a great place, never too busy, everyone is respectful and welcoming. I always look forward to coming here for my workouts.”

“very helpful tour given by Brad today, the gym looks great i was really impressed by their reformer studio, the cardio machines are amazing too giving you POV while you work out, facilities has definitely improved. The price is definitely worth it compared to what local gyms in the area offer.”

“Rachel is an amazing swim teacher. I’m older and have knee problems, so I was nervous about starting lessons. From day one, she made me feel comfortable and safe in the water. She adjusted every exercise to fit what I could do. She focused on gentle movement and steady progress. She never rushed me but always encouraged me to keep going. Now I move more easily and feel stronger after every session. Rachel’s patience and support have made a huge difference in my confidence and mobility.”

“Really great gym. Spa and pool facilities are superb. Gym itself is not as big but has quite a lot of equipment. Love the group classes the most, really great mixture and timings. Staff is always polite and helpful. Customer service has been also super responsive and they are taking their members feedback really seriously. Highly recommended!”

“5 Out 5 Stars – A Brilliant Spot by the Water. The Waterfront never disappoints. It’s one of those places where you instantly feel at ease the moment you arrive. With its open views across the water and a laid back atmosphere, it’s the perfect escape from the busyness of everyday life. The surroundings are picturesque, especially as the light changes in the evening, and the whole area feels very clean, safe, and well looked after. It’s great for any kind of visit — a stroll with friends, a family outing, or a quiet moment on your own. If you choose to stop at the venue, the service is warm and efficient, and there’s a genuine effort to make guests feel welcome. Everything contributes to a relaxed, enjoyable experience. Whether you’re after good food, a scenic walk, or just a peaceful place to sit by the water, The Waterfront is definitely worth a visit.”

“The Best place to work out, with plenty of options and well sized pools. The price is really good for that variety. I love it.”

“Love the pool, nice and warm water, clean saunas and lovely reception staff! Free parking outside, coming in the evening after 8 never had any issues finding a spot, register your number plate at the reception upon arrival!”

“I attended the BETTER Classes, lead by Jackie who is a friendly approachable instructor. Also has years of experience so can guide you as needed. After a health issue I was losing confidence, but enjoyed the class and regained confidence in myself and what I can do to improve my health and lifestyle. Also others in the group were friendly, non judgmental, and fun.”

“Everything I expected. I knew it would be small, but I'm on holiday so it was really only for sleeping and a base to come back to. I spent 10 days and had not one issue. I was given a top floor room at the back and it was very quiet. There was no table or chair,but if I brought dinner home I just used the ironing board. Easy. McGlynn' s free house is just over and is a good place to meet locals and visitors alike. The majority of underground lines are just up the road, excellent for getting around. I would recommend staying here as long as you aren't going to sit in the room all day. I would stay here again.”

“Lots of equipment, never overly busy and a very pleasant experience. Would recommend.”

“Stella’s baby swimming classes are amazing! My wife was scared to take the baby so I joined for the first class and we were both quickly reassured by Stella’s professionalism, gentle pacing for the babies and calm presence. My wife says she comes back from the classes feeling more relaxed and my baby is learning life long essential skills with water. Thank you Stella!”
