What visitors say
Based on recent Google reviewsFitness First Highbury draws praise for its pool, sauna, steam room, and recently upgraded facilities. The free weights area and reformer Pilates studios are well-regarded, and staff are consistently described as friendly and supportive. Post-refurbishment, class availability has tightened and the booking system has shifted, which frustrates some members. Shower facilities and gym lighting remain persistent concerns. For those seeking a comprehensive wellness space with pool and sauna alongside serious gym training, the offering is solid, though manage expectations on class access and facilities upkeep.
