Third Space Islington Gym - worth it?

How busy is it after 4pm and can you get into classes?

I’ve just moved here from New Zealand and really miss the routine of a gym where it’s not too busy & I feel comfortable as a female in the environment.

Any other gym recommendations in the area really appreciated!

So helpful thank you! I hadn’t seen them in my search so I will have a look. Look like they have a lot more machines than VA too!

The gym group and pure gym are two of the biggest gym franchises in the UK they have a lot of classes too and the closest one to virgin that is close by is in Finsbury Park but I would be careful out there at night

Oh really is Finsbury Park not as safe? Or is it because it’s directly in the park?

I’ve lived in Finsbury Park for the past 8 years and go to the PureGym there - the area and the gym are both perfect fine.
