Exercise gym in Welling

“All the guys at the desk are super helpful. The facilities are excellent, I used to play badminton there when it had the Whitton "Dome" visible from the A316, but now it's been brought bang up to date with the new school buildings. The only slight downside is that a badminton training there is more expensive than Hampton with the danger amount of time and the same coach”

“Great track for athletics training / hyrox etc. very reasonable for PAYG at £5 per time. Multiple places to park (Ringo - paid) - about 60p an hour. Great facility.”

“The Laboratory Spa and Health Club is an incredible place to relax, recharge, and take care of both body and mind. The atmosphere is peaceful and beautifully maintained, making it a perfect escape from the busy outside world. The gym is modern and well-equipped, the pool is spotless and inviting, and the spa facilities are truly first class. What makes the experience even more special is the team—everyone is friendly, professional, and welcoming. A special mention goes to Denisa, one of the lifeguards, who is always so helpful, approachable, and genuinely the best person I’ve spoken to there, she really makes each visit even better.”

“Ah! What can I say! Forrest Hill Pools, is definitely my A1 in the Better Gym branches. A breathe of fresh air! Not only are the staff lovely, but the gym itself is alway spotless! Cleaners regularly cleaning and keeping the place hygienic, customers respecting the facilities by also keeping it clean and putting equipment away. Classes are always great! Darren is a fantastic trainer, always attentive of everyone in the group and always encourages you. Caroline who is on reception always has a wonderful smile on her face when you enter and greets you warmly, just a great start to your day especially if you’re like me who will wake up at 5am get washed and dressed and drive 30-40 mins to get here, you’re drained as it is, then you step in and are welcomed by lovely staff! It’s worth your travels! I haven’t been to this branch in a while, not fault of there own just circumstantial, but I will be returning shortly as they are thus far my favourite!!! Other than going to the gym and classes I haven’t used the pool, so I can’t comment on it, but will soon. They do junior gym which is great too, my son gets to come along with me at times before our home school hours which he enjoys. I also enjoy the virtual spin class. My only wish is that there was parking facilities but unfortunately there isn’t any but one disabled parking bay. Other than this there is nothing I can say against this Better branch. Well done to all the staff in this branch for keeping up good standards that is expect from your customers. Thank you because it makes the experience a good one.”

“Sun 2 Nov 2025 21° C, sunny weather Swimming pool looks pristine. Staff is very helpful and the crowd is chill.”

“Got 29 mins of free parking. Was in row Zone A row 8/9 and right under the landing path of the jets. Great bonus, if you've never been under the jets landing before.”

“This gym is a hidden gem. Quiet at the right times with stunning sunset views of the City. In many ways it feels more exclusive than the subterranean luxe gyms nearby that cost 10 x more and are 10 x busier. No frills, but I live 2 minutes away, so don’t need a towel and luxe showers. Very friendly and helpful staff - they are all lovely. Luca the PT is a top tier trainer and a credit to the gym.”

“My daughter has been attending the 5 year old swimming lessons here and I couldn’t be happier with her progress. She’s learning so well and growing in confidence each week. The staff are amazing and I feel have been patient, encouraging and always make the lessons fun. The centre itself is clean, well-run and really welcoming. I’m so impressed with the way the instructors support each child at their own pace. Highly recommend Leytonstone Leisure Centre for children’s swimming lessons!”

“I've been using this gym and pool for a few months now, and it’s been a great experience. The gym is clean, well-equipped, and never too crowded. The swimming pool is well-maintained, with clear lane markings and good water temperature. Staff are friendly, and the locker rooms are always tidy. Even the weekends are great for me to take my daughter. Overall, highly recommended for anyone looking to stay fit!”

“I moved to Virgin Active Repton Park in January after spending 5 years at Nuffield Health, and the difference has been a complete revelation. Nuffield raised prices twice in a year, removed key facilities like the jacuzzi without offering any discount, and the overall atmosphere — especially with some PTs — felt disrespectful and unfair. That experience pushed me to leave. Virgin Active has been the opposite in every way. From the gated community car park where you know your car is safe, to the friendly and welcoming reception team who greet you with a smile and provide fresh towels on every visit, the hospitality here is on another level. The locker rooms are a bit outdated and could use a modern refresh, but they’re always clean. The gym floor is great, though I do wish it had a bit more space and additional machines — especially a dedicated bicep machine. The real highlight of this club is the spa area. The sauna and steam room were recently renovated and are consistently in perfect working condition. The jacuzzi is incredibly relaxing, and the swimming pool is huge. As someone who’s been bodybuilding for over 10 years, having high-quality recovery facilities makes a massive difference. The architecture of the building is beautiful — transforming an old church into a gym gives the whole place a unique, almost royal feel. Overall, Virgin Active Repton Park delivers exceptional value, atmosphere, and service. Easily one of the best fitness clubs I’ve ever been a part of.”

“Giving 5 stars due to the professionalism of the staff - would like to especially mention Julie and Zain who have been exceptional in supporting at the front-desk and in the gym respectively. Give em a raise (no they didn't bribe me ;) ). Management needs to look into the issue of overcrowding in the gym due to unchecked new signups recently. I have had to avoid going in on certain days of the week due to the same which has affected my otherwise good workout regime. Many other regulars have echoed the same concern. Also, the swimming pool cleaning quality has gone down too recently - needs to be immediately sorted out. Thanks.”

“Great swimming facilities if caught at the right time of day. Easy access to a sauna, steam room and Jacuzzi. The price is good if you're willing to pay for three months membership. The only shorter option is a session pass which cost me more than I was happy to spend. Next time I think I'll hit the gym too!”

“Incredible venue hidden right in the centre of London. Love the pool, gym and classes. Outdoor pool is the star of the show and all staff I have encountered have been incredible. Gym is nice and clean too!”

“I've always wanted to swim in this pool since visiting during the Olympics. Booked for the 50m competition pool via the Everyone Active app. At £7 per adult this is great value for money and comparable to any other leisure centre. The changing village was clean, plenty of hot showers, and the lockers (£1 returnable) were well maintained. The pool was clean and the temperature was good for continual lane swimming. Great experience and will certainly return!”

“Nice sports centre. The sports hall is in the basement, and the water foundation is in the gym on the 1st floor. Walls of the sports hall are mostly grey, with one side with white bits and windows and a bit hard to see the shuttle. The ceiling is white as well.”

“Had a great time here today. The pools were all well managed by the lifeguards, they were actively checking how busy the pools were, closing them at capacity, making sure children were using the slides correctly etc which was nice to see. The two smaller pools were great for my toddlers and they really enjoyed the slides. We travelled half an hour to get here as we don’t have anything like this near us so it was a nice change. The only improvement for us would be more family changing rooms as they were full when we got there and the small changing rooms were very tricky to change twin toddlers in. They can’t help the size of the building though! We’d visit again”

“Mikael and yulia are very enthusiastic and positive every day. Both run really good classes and are always around to help with technique or equipment! Highly recommend this gym, things are constantly improving - equipment is being changed, new equipment, new spin bikes. I know some reviews are harsh but it is the best gym in the area. Highly recommend”

“Amazing party for Elouise on 19/07/2025! Lucy (apologies if I got the name slightly wrong!) was the star of the day—an incredible host who went above and beyond. She was friendly, energetic, and so helpful throughout, making everything run smoothly. The room was clean and ready, the kids had a blast, and the whole experience was stress-free thanks to her. A real credit to your team! I’ll definitely be recommending and booking again.”

“10/10 trainer. Very friendly. Definitely recommend to anyone looking to work out. Top quality gym!!!!”

“Beautiful studio in the heart of Fulham, offering a range of dance and movement classes for the community. I love teaching here as the staff are super welcoming and supportive to everyone. Highly recommend.”

“Amazing classes. My kids love it. Coach is very friendly and patient.”

“Great teachers with fun and friendly atmosphere, where the impossible all becomes possible! I really love how everyone encourages and cheers each other on, having come for the exercise and challenge, the added bonus has been making amazing friends along the way!”

“Our son has been playing at Oxshott tennis (OVSC) for 5 years. During this time he has attended group classes, holiday camps & 1:2:1 lessons. The Coaches at the club are all great, a really friendly team & very professional. They are keen to see the children enjoy but also progress in their tennis. Great ‘Performance level’ classes are also available for those children that want to progress their tennis beyond just playing for fun, highly recommend Oxshott tennis!”
