Whether you are in the area for a short stay or looking for a long-term membership, these options cover private-club wellness, premium full-service facilities and high-intensity studio training.
KX Health Club
KX is a private members’ club built around fitness, recovery and wellbeing. Alongside a well-equipped gym, it offers spa and wellness facilities, studio classes and a restaurant. It is a strong option for those who value an all-in-one club and a more private environment.
Equinox Kensington

David Lloyd Kensington
For a broader health-club format, David Lloyd Kensington brings together gym training, classes, swimming and spa facilities. It is particularly practical for people who want variety in one membership, including space to relax or work between sessions.
1Rebel Chelsea
1Rebel is suited to clients who prefer coached, high-energy studio sessions rather than a conventional gym routine. The Chelsea location offers a fast-paced option for boxing, strength and cardio-focused training in a stylish setting.
Choosing the right club
Choose KX for a private, wellness-led experience; Equinox for a premium central gym with a broad class timetable; David Lloyd for a more complete health-club offering; and 1Rebel for boutique, instructor-led intensity. Check each venue’s current membership, guest-pass and class policies directly before you visit.
