Friendly reception staff…
I have been coming to the Oasis centre for a few years now mainly to play squash! The courts could be better maintained and holes on the walls fixed quicker but overall satisfactory. Ferrah at reception has always been very friendly, courteous and attentive for me and our Outplay club members.

We’re particularly excited to hear your feedback on Carlos's Power Pump, HIIT, and spin classes!

A Hidden Gem in London
Better Oasis Gym, Covent Garden
I can’t recommend Better Oasis Gym in Covent Garden highly enough. It’s a true hidden gem in the heart of London, offering an unbeatable combination of affordability, quality, and convenience. It affords local residents who live in smaller flats a place to relax ( sun deck is essential year round ), outdoor pool and many daily classes.
First and foremost, the staff deserve a special mention. They are not only highly competent and professional but also genuinely welcoming and kind. Whether you’re a seasoned gym-goer or just starting out, they make you feel comfortable and supported, offering expert advice and assistance without ever being intrusive.
The classes themselves are also well run and at good times - perhaps only criticism is a few additional ones on Sundays as they are always fully booked. If you are looking for a personal trainer - those too. And for fitness classes - I love Kate’s intense spin classes - you have to come prepared to work but it’s help me focus on realistic fitness goals and develop my strength into my late 50s.
What truly makes this gym a standout is the incredible value. For just £79 a month, you get a full membership that grants you access to all classes and Better gyms nationwide. So I swim at Manor House lake, use Kentish Town and Shoredtich branches and others when I can. It’s an absolute steal – especially in London, where gym memberships are notoriously expensive. From HIIT and yoga to spin and strength training, the variety of classes ensures there’s something for everyone.
The facilities at Oasis themselves are excellent. The gym is rarely busy, making it feel almost like a private club—a genuine miracle in central London. You can actually use the equipment without waiting around, and there’s plenty of space to train without feeling cramped. The gym is also well-maintained and spotlessly clean, creating a pleasant and motivating environment.
Whether you’re looking for a serious training spot, a place to join classes, or simply a no-fuss gym with fantastic value, Better Oasis Gym is the perfect fit. It’s easily one of the best-kept fitness secrets in London.

Hidden gem in central of London
Absolutely lovely fitness centre that's been around for years, located in Holborn with so much history! They have two pools (an indoor 25m pool and an outdoor 27.5m heated pool), outdoor sauna, rooftop for sunbathing and a newly upgraded gym which now also include a curve treadmill! The outdoor pool has been around since 1950s, also known as Endell Street Baths. Super lovely amazing friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere. I've been coming here for years <3
