I've recently moved office to Mayfair and am looking for a decent gym. So far, I've looked at Fitness First on Berkeley Square and LA Fitness on Piccadilly. I'm going to look at Virgin later in the week.

Are there any obvious ones that I have missed? So far I'm not too impressed with what I have seen, although having come from Canary Wharf where I had a fantastic gym in my office building, it will be a tough one to live up to.

Any help much appreciated!

Virgin on Park St is ok - but join Virgin in Marylebone which is cheaper and just use the Park St one. I've been a member of both with no complaints.

Thanks for the reply. Only problem is that Virgin is quite a walk from where I am (Berkeley Square). Any other obvious ones that I have missed?

Third Space on Brewer St - nicest one around and c.10 minutes from Berkeley Sq.

Yes, I guess it's not too bad but I'm just comparing it to when the gym was just a few floors below where I worked... I'm going to visit Virgin later on today.

Re The Third Space - it looks very nice on the website, but it's quite pricey. Will take a look though.

Thanks again for the replies.

I use FF, Berkeley Square. Quite small so usually too busy at peak hours, it's also a bit "tired". Fairly cheap, though.
