City Fitness South Philly: Opinions

4.6/5 (32 Opinions)
Michael Levine 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Brand new state of the art fitness center in the heart of South Philly. Friendly staff, clean facilities, and lots of different social and individual options to support a wide variety of physical fitness needs.

Positive experience: Equipment is new, but it is packed and the weights are a pain to get in. Parts are small and cramped upstairs. Staff is nice though. Also, forget any hope about driving there and parking to go to the gym. Find other means, otherwise you'll waste 30+ mins trying to park.

Fantastic experience: I've had a gym membership since I was 15 yrs old. I've got a few greys, so that is a long time ago for context. No matter what kind of gym I've belonged to, whether it was a whole in the ground sweat box or a massive techno vanity box, one factor remained true. My enjoyment of the gym had a lot to do with the staff that ran it. The City Fitness on Passyunk has truly blown me away with their customer service. From day one I've been greeted with smile and hello from an extremely friendly staff and the building maintenance is fantastic. One day they went even further. I lost a very small plastic ear piece to my headphones that without it makes them useless. I reported to Carly (Customer Service Associate - one of the warmest smiles you'll ever see) and Angie (very friendly and hard working Maintenance Tech). Before I could finish warming up they had found this tiny black piece of plastic and Angie cleaned it for me. Thus, I was able to fully enjoy my workout. The staff is the heart of a gym. This place has heart!

Positive experience: The new Passyunk City Fitness is such a great improvement for the area and the members in south Philly - great equipment, always love the city fitness staff, and I’m pumped they have a smoothie bar. My only issue is the kettlebells are upstairs, but dumbbells are downstairs.

Positive experience: Pros: Staff is very friendly, place is clean, love the in-house protein shakes and it has newer equipment. Cons: That said, the bottom floor is cramped to the point you feel like you’re working out on top of people. The racks and free weight area are always busy, no matter the hour of the day. The upstairs area is nice but again small and cramped. The thrive program takes up such a large portion of the gym too. Wanna join it? Be prepared to drop another $300 dollars a month. One of CFs biggest draws is the sauna yet it’s alway lukewarm at best. Good gym, but not for the price when sweat is down the street for half the cost.

Positive experience: This is a pretty solid, low-key gym. I arrived around 10pm (only 2 people were there), my entire workout was in complete privacy. I left around midnight, the crowd had increased by 5 or 6 at the time. Everything you need for a successful workout .

Fantastic experience: Great gym, appreciate their COVID protocols. Feel safe working out here. Equipment is clean and surprisingly varied for a smaller gym.

Ed Myers 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: City Fitness is a great reason to live in Philadelphia. I’ve been going off-and-on to this gym for about five years. Before Covid-19 you could go any hour or day of the week. Like all gyms they had to close but reopened with capacity restrictions. You can book a time on the app; it’s convenient and easy. Their management of the facilities during this crisis has been nothing short of fantastic. The facilities are regularly updated with state of the art equipment and are managed by friendly staff. They offer great classes for people of any age. City Fitness has top quality gyms for a reasonable rate. This gym has done so much for my well being and state of mind!

Peter Willis 5 years ago

Positive experience: Pretty decent mini 24hr location but the members need to clean up after themselves, the bathroom floors are always soaked from people not drying off in the shower. I've never seen the group classes full so check them out to get best value for your $

Positive experience: Nice little gym. I only took classes because I am interested in group fitness, but seems like they have lots of equipment and good prices. The customer service was great because they made a mistake and thought they did not activate my trial pass, so I went up there to talk about it and they let me try another free class due to the confusion. The group class was fun and had my abs burning for 2 days. I am still looking into gyms, so unsure of whether or not to join, but so far this is one of my top prospects.
