Fantastic experience: I've been going to City Fitness for roughly 5 years...maybe more and I have to say I love it. The equipment is modern and in great condition, the gym is spacious and they also throw plenty of customer appreciation day events throughtout the year, such as at the North Shore Swim Club in Northen Liberties. This isn't Planet Fitness where you eat pizza while doing crunches, its a gym where diedicated people go to work out. Love this place!

Fantastic experience: Well I work there and there r so many people that come to the gym and work out before work and after work it a nice quite place to work out at and I'm gladly to tell anybody about the gym

Fantastic experience: I appreciate: the cleanliness of the gym and locker rooms; staff friendliness; great trainers-loved working with Tony Kim and now with Colleen Monaghan in Thrive program.

Fantastic experience: Great high quality equipment. It is busy but great environment and clean.

Fantastic experience: It is accessible via stairs and an elevator. Great gym filled with friendly staff and members. They take care of us and the equipment. They keep it uber clean, too!

Fantastic experience: It's a great place & friendly people

Fantastic experience: Front Desk employee was very helpful and pleasant gave me a tour of the new location and answered all of my questions

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Great gym!…Staff is helpful!…It’s pricey but for the services they offer it is worth it.

Fantastic experience: Visiting from Germany and was only looking for a great sauna experience. They all treated me like royalty, gave me a tour of their facilities and clearly explained where everything was. Hot sauna with a great shower in a clean environment. I recommend

Fantastic experience: Positive: Quality Love the northern liberties City Fitness club. It's clean and everyone is very respectful of your space. Great energy for my workouts all the time!

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym and excellent smoothie bar. Parking is a huge plus.

Fantastic experience: I've been going here for 3 years. I've belonged to small local gyms and the large LA Fitness's of the world. City Fitness does an excellent job with communication from management about changes, especially through Covid-19, the transparency has been great. The $50-60 dollars a month is extremely cheap for a nice gym (seriously if that's too much for you, I can only imagine you go to Planet Fitness five times a year). Never had a single billing issue, despite other reviews I've read. Sure, during 5pm after work rush, it's crowded, so is everywhere else. I go at 8pm and I'm usually in there with 15-20 people, pretty great for a concentrated area of the city with a younger professional crowd. I've never used the locker room, showers, etc. Don't need to, so can't comment on that. tl;dr / if you're looking for a gym to lift at, at a good price, this is it.

Fantastic experience: Clean gym with friendly staff and a small, but cute yoga studio with wonderful instructors! There is a tanning salon as well, which I haven't tried yet, but will put to good use soon

Fantastic experience: I've been going to City Fitness in Northern Liberties for over three years. The gym is well equipped and very clean. The people at the front desk always greet you whether you're coming in or leaving the gym. I sure did miss this gym when they had to close for a year due to the Covid pandemic.

Fantastic experience: Been a member of this gym for, I think about 6 years now. I always felt like it was a good mix between a local gym and one of the big franchises like LA Fitness. It feels like the best of both worlds, large professional facility but with a more hometown community feel. I have the city pass and it's convenient to be able to drop into all the other locations, but NoLibs has been my home gym since I joined. It's clean, (especially since COVID they've really gone all out, I never felt unsafe here). I really like the variety of classes. It's nice to be able to jump right between from lifting into a yoga class at the same location.

Positive experience: It is conveniently down the street from my job. It is VERY clean and the staff is always pleasant.

Fantastic experience: I love City Fitness! The people at City Fitness are really what make it different from other gyms. I do their Thrive program a couple times per week and love it! My trainer and the other people in Thrive are all great and have become friends. Everything is always clean and orderly and the other members are respectful of your space and the rules regarding wiping down machines and equipment. Their app makes life easier and the membership staff always make sure you're happy with your City Fitness experience. I couldn't recommend it more!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Well-maintained gym with highly proficient and friendly instructors. Attention to COVID-safety measures (limiting capacity overall and in classes, sanitizing, air treatment) is exceptional.

Fantastic experience: City Fitness is the place to enjoy a worry-free workout in the times of pandemic. As always, the group fitness classes are fun and safe.

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, always clean and equipment is well maintained!

Fantastic experience: Clean, up to date gym that also has a friendly community feel to it. I didn’t think I would stick with the Thrive program- but I’ve found it worthwhile so I’ve been going consistently for almost 2 years now. My trainer, Ahmad, works with me to personalize workouts and help figure out nutrition to optimize results. I’ve gotten a lot stronger than when I started. For example, I used to barely be able to deadlift 100lbs and now I’m up to being able to do 185lb for 5x5. Ahmad is professional, very knowledgeable, and fun to work with. The thrive program keeps me accountable and motivates me to work out more on my own too. I also like some of the yoga and spin classes that are all included in my membership.

Fantastic experience: City fitness keeps a tight ship. Every gym I've been to is clean and inviting. smaller than the graduate hospital and Fishtown gym but I like the set up of the thrive area and how members have a chance to use that area and equipment at times

Fantastic experience: Great gym, friendly staff always clean.

Fantastic experience: Nice gym, Rich the trainer is the best

Fantastic experience: I have been to many gyms over the years but this one has by far been the best experience. About 6 months into doing the mundane training splits , coach Ahmad approached me about doing the THRIVE program and I have not looked back! Ahmad definitely is a master of his craft and my results are better than I expected! The program is a little pricey but I justify it by reiterating to myself that I am investing in myself. Go see Ahmad , he won’t let you down!

Fantastic experience: Loving working out here. Juice bar is pretty cool

Fantastic experience: Gym is excellent and the services provided exceed the monthly cost!

Fantastic experience: I joined this gym when I moved to Northern Liberties and I really enjoy it. The staff is always very friendly, the price is reasonable and the hours are great!

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Nice staff. Clean and updated equipment. They have 4 stair masters which if awesome. They also have mirrors everywhere so you can see yourself. To me it's worth the high price tag because of the classes they offer. They offer Zumba, cycling, yoga, and other classes that use body weight and weights. They have a sauna, clean showers, locker room, and few towels.

Fantastic experience: Been a member for years. I enjoy the classes and the facility has up to date equipment.

Fantastic experience: Excellent facility and staff. Just started there after the 12th Street Gym disaster. The place is spotless, easy to navigate and has plenty of stations, equipment and rooms designed for speciality classes such a specially layed out and lighted spinning rooms. Parking is also available but limited in the number of spaces...street side prking is usually very available all around the building.

Fantastic experience: CF offers everything you need. There are so many treadmills you will never find yourself waiting for one. Personal trainers here are great. Got no complaints about the equipment. Membership costs are less than the gyms in center city. Overall a great gym.

Fantastic experience: Lots of classes and great equipment. Staff are super friendly. As low as $25 per month plus the sign up fee if you do it right

Fantastic experience: awesome gym, membership comes with classes, can be packed during rush hour and difficult with their limited parking. ride a bike if you can!

Fantastic experience: Always clean with great friendly staff. I've been going for almost two weeks now and all the equipment I have used had been working fine. Their open workout area is a great touch to a normal weight lifting gym. Overall this place is great.

Fantastic experience: The staff is friendly and layout is perfect for s great workout.

Fantastic experience: These are good place to do gym.

Fantastic experience: When my trainer from another gym began working at City Fitness I decided to follow him, and I'm happy that I did! I felt welcomed from the moment that I walked through the doors. EVERYONE is friendly and the entire gym is always so clean! There is always a machine available to workout on whenever I'm ready, no waiting for someone to get off.... The trainers are motivating without being overbearing (which I've experienced at other places) and no matter what your shape, size, or strength is they make you feel good about yourself and your goals! What I love most are the convenient hours, I'm a night person so the gym staying open until 1am is wonderful for me!!

Fantastic experience: Really enjoying my workouts here. Thrive is also wonderful.

Fantastic experience: True story: I love this gym so much that when I was looking for a new apartment, my main requirement was to be walking distance from City Fitness! It's such a great gym. It really feels like family. It's one of the rare gyms that everyone actually says hello to each other. They have something for everyone no matter what your level or preference is. Great Thrive program and awesome classes! I go to Rich's boot camps religiously. You can also get amazing workouts from from Brian D. and Alfonzo's boot camps. Intense cardio from Carl and Angela's spin. This gym really has something for everyone! Oh, and you can get a post-workout recovery smoothie after the work out from Angie! Shout out to JP and Joyce too. Love them :)

Fantastic experience: This gym goes above and beyond the normal limits of an urban fitness center. They have the award winning THRIVE program alongside many other great fitness classes for everyone of all skill levels. The staff is friendly and the gym is clean. Overall it's a great urban gym experience for a reasonable price!

Fantastic experience: • AMAZING staff! • Smoothie Bar (THE BEST in PHILLY) • The variety of classes and options available for no-impact workouts • Equipment and facilities!!!! • Affordability!!!!! • I LOVE CITY FITNESS!!!!

Fantastic experience: Cliché for sure, but true: I am treated as an individual. I feel that my goals, limitations, and personality are always considered - yet all involved truly motivate me to reach a little higher than I might have otherwise. I go three times a week for the Thrive program; the people working out are of all ages (I'm 62) and fitness levels and I have a sense that the trainers are really adjusting the program to suit a particular client. Good stuff.
