I’m so happy I left the big commercial gym to join this place! Absolutely a hidden gem in the neighborhood. It has all the equipment you need, from free weights and machines to a dedicated cardio section. It's always super clean and quiet, I never have to queue for anything. Stas, the owner, is incredibly friendly and helpful. He’s always energetic and truly embodies the great vibe of this gym. When I joined, I received two customized training programs and massage. What I also love is the flexible opening hours. I feel free to come here at almost any time of the day.
Fitness Lounge is hands down the best gym in the area. The real standout is the owner, Stas—he’s incredibly friendly, always eager to help, and makes everyone feel welcome. It’s the kind of place you actually look forward to visiting. The gym itself is spotless, never overcrowded, and has a great variety of useful equipment. What I love most is the flexibility; they are open from very early in the morning until late at night, including weekends. Since joining, my consistency has improved so much because I can always find a time that fits my schedule. Whether you're a beginner or a regular, and no matter your age, I highly recommend Fitness Lounge. It truly lives up to its name!
I’ve been a member since April. At first, it was just a “let’s try the gym” experiment with a trial offer, and I wasn’t sure I’d enjoy it. Now I really do! Fitness Lounge offers plenty of space to train and a great variety of machines, all within a relaxed and positive atmosphere. Irina and Stas are always available to guide you during training if needed, and they’re happy to answer any questions. They’re also genuinely friendly, which makes a real difference. This is the first gym I’ve ever joined, and it is a very positive experience.
My experience at the Fitness Lounge Basel has been always good! The gym is clean and has everything you need. It’s also super centric, close to SBB Main Station and not far from the old town! The feeling is very good for training and it is not packed! I think this is a good place to go if you are looking for a more quiet place to train but where you can also meet others. Stas and Irina, the staff, are nice, easygoing, encouraging and respectful. And the protein shakes are delicious!
This gym is quite spacious. It's owned and operated by a professional athlete, so you're truly in good hands. While it's true that it comes at a slightly higher cost compared to typical gyms, the advantage lies in the fact that you have access to the equipment without the usual crowd and you have a familiar ambiance. This makes it completely worthwhile, and the owner's dedication in motivating you to reach your fitness goals really pushes you to achieve results!
