Compare with similar clubsOur Take
Zürich's most central premium chain gym — rooftop terrace, full group class programme, whirlpool, and bar inside the Jelmoli department store.
Choose this for the rooftop, the central location, and the group class depth — but verify equipment maintenance standards on a trial visit before committing.
Members Say
148 reviews · 4.28 ★The club has a loyal long-term member base and a notably social, international character — rooftop events and classes generate genuine enthusiasm. However, a persistent gap between the premium positioning and the actual state of equipment and changing facilities has become more visible in reviews from 2024–2026.
- Rooftop terrace and city views cited as a unique differentiator
- Group class offering praised — Zumba, spinning, and instructor quality
- Central Jelmoli location with strong community atmosphere
- Ask about equipment maintenance standards before signing — broken machines flagged across multiple review periods
- Changing rooms and showers reported as undersized and inconsistently clean

MichaelHolmes Place Jelmoli is a fantastic place to train and unwind! The roof opens up, giving the gym a lovely airy feel, and the outdoor area is a real bonus. The spa is perfect for relaxing after a workout. What really makes this place special is the people. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming, and the personal trainers are very knowledgeable, approachable and always happy to help. A great atmosphere that makes you look forward to coming back. Highly recommended!
Sadudin B. EngadeanHolmes Palace Fitness is overrated and overpriced. I sensed the confusion it offers between being a gym or a bar and realised in the first month that it is neither. No motivation to be there. You pay the name “palace end expect palace”: varieties of trainings and all sorts of equipment especially if you are athletic, BUT NO! They don’t even offer the equipment they have: I couldn’t find jumping ropes several times. There was a room full of punching bags and I signed there because of it but it turned out coaches are ordered to say: you can‘t use them without a couch. Even in Kindergarten you use toys without a caretaker but not in this “gym” because the punching bag might hit you back and they care for you. They care for extra fees but terrible service is no problem to them. I respect the coaches but that membership was a waste of money. Too difficult to end the membership: the website does not allow it likely to keep you in forever. They charge you extra for simply pre-ending the membership timely. There are gyms near the lake in Zurich that cost twice less and have everything better and don‘t rip you off deceitfully with fictional names. I simply pre-ended my agreement (12th months) but went there a total of less than two months. I trained elsewhere instead. I don’t recommend it at all.
astros eirGreat gym with a clean and well-maintained environment. The changing rooms and showers are always nice and tidy, and the gym itself has a great atmosphere with good facilities. Happy to train here!
Sira ZigerligI've been training at Holmes Place for a while now and I'm genuinely impressed. The club is always clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything needed for a great workout. The staff are friendly, professional, and always willing to help, creating a welcoming atmosphere from the moment you walk in. The gym offers a wide variety of high-quality equipment, excellent group classes, and a relaxing wellness area that makes it stand out from many other fitness clubs. The trainers are knowledgeable and motivating, and the overall environment encourages you to stay consistent with your fitness goals. If you're looking for a premium gym experience with great facilities and a positive community, I highly recommend Holmes Place.
Pascal TokarExcellent gym with modern, high-quality equipment and a great variety of machines for both strength and cardio training. Everything is well maintained, clean, and thoughtfully designed. The wide range of classes and wellness facilities is a huge bonus. A premium fitness club that offers everything you need under one roof. Highly recommended.
