Dear Member ,

We are delighted to announce that Simply Gym Cheltenham will be undergoing a major refurbishment this summer as part of our continued investment in the club and to celebrate our 15th anniversary.

Since opening our doors in 2011, Cheltenham has grown into one of the most successful and well-loved clubs in the Simply Gym family. This refurbishment represents a significant investment in the future of the club, creating a more modern, spacious and enjoyable training environment for years to come.

Planned improvements – the project will include:

Removal of the suspended ceiling to create a larger, more open gym environment
Brand-new lighting
New flooring and carpets throughout the club
Full redecoration and refresh of all training areas
Improvements to reception and front-of-house spaces
A redesigned functional training area
A brand-new mezzanine training area
Improved gym layout and member flow
Updated branding and wayfinding throughout the club
Enhanced audio and visual systems

Closure Dates

Thursday 16th July 2026 at 8:00pm
and will reopen on:

Please note that the Women’s Only gym is expected to remain closed for approximately one additional week whilst final works are completed within that area.
