1990s
The Evolution
As squash declined, the club adapted. Eight courts became a gym. The old projection room became the free weights area.

I’ve been going to the South Bank Club for over 20 years, and it’s easily my favourite gym in London. Being family-run, it has such a welcoming atmosphere, you genuinely feel part of a community every time you walk through the door. It offers fantastic value, and there’s a real sense of family and connection, not just in the gym, but through the social side too.
The squash scene is a great example of this, with plenty of opportunities to get involved, meet people, and enjoy friendly competition. The team are always friendly and approachable, and there’s always someone around to offer advice or lend a hand when you need it. The facilities have been beautifully updated with fantastic new equipment, while still keeping the club’s character.
Southbank Club is a really great place to work out. There’s plenty of space, a huge free-weights area, a boxing area, a functional training zone, and excellent machines, including the latest top-of-the-range Technogym BioStrength equipment. The members create a supportive community, and the staff are always welcoming and extremely polite.
This gym is exactly what you need to embrace your fitness journey. I couldn’t recommend it enough. I’ve been training here since 2017, and I see myself staying here for many more years.
You won’t find a more community-oriented gym in London. I’ve been part of Southbank’s squash club for 3 years now and it’s been the foundation of so many friendships for me. Everyone is welcoming to friendly faces and the management cares a lot about ensuring a top-tier experience; taking on feedback and constantly interacting with members. It’s well worth the price for the great social atmosphere and excellent facilities, especially with their new gym equipment. Feels even better to be supporting a family-owned business rather than a chain. Long live Southbank Club!
It’s so refreshing to have a gym in London that feels like a community and cares about you. The gym is very spacious with great equipment which you never have to wait for. After a gruelling workout, the sauna and steam rooms were an excellent way to cool down.
Genuinely a gem of a gym! Shoutout to Sylvia for amazing service and being so friendly and welcoming. The gym equipment wise is fantastic, but my favourite part of the gym is the environment. It’s extremely welcoming, feels relaxed and I feel very safe going alone as a woman. Also, there is a commitment to revamping the gym and improving it always but I hope it never loses its old-school charm from the wooden interiors to perfectly useable machines from the 2000s! Makes it so comforting and better than other commercial gyms nowadays.
What can I say about the amazing gym. It has everything a man or woman needs to get fit and trim, with a wide range of gym equipment and the best bit for me anyway the super hot sauna. Super friendly staff, great location and excellent value for money in term of the monthly membership. I’ve been to many gyms in and around London and this is for sure one of the best in town.
I have been a squash member here now for over 5 years and love the place. Facilities are great and the staff are so friendly. Klaus is the owner who runs the place with heart and professionalism. A very impressive and genuine business.
