Kentish Town Sports Centre
📍 London, Greater London
Well-equipped sports centre with clean swimming pool, a large upper-floor gym, birthday party facilities, and full pram access. Day passes available for visitors not on membership.
🏆 Funzaroo Verdict
Best for families on membership who want a clean pool with a well-stocked gym alongside it. Day pass visitors should factor in the substantially increased per-visit cost when comparing to other North London leisure centres. The pool area is clean and staff respond quickly — a positive for families with young children.

“My son and I got a week pass while in town on holiday. He was able to get some decent swims in trying to keep in shape over break. Staff was extremely helpful and got us sorted nearly immediately. Upper gym area is large with good variety of equipment. Highly recommend it!”

“A great gym, but terrible toilets! Toilet button has been broken for weeks now, also broken hook on toilet door aswell as the hand dryer which now has an ‘OUT OF ORDER’ sign. Surely the maintenance team can manage this??”
