1 / 2Kensington Leisure Centre
π London, Greater London
Kensington Leisure Centre offers a main swimming pool, leisure pool, spa with hydro pool and sauna, fitness classes, and changing facilities with ample lockers. Pram access and parking available.
This leisure centre offers active sport activities and I love coming here for Vivianβs Zumba classes on Thursdays! Occasionally, they organise events for all ages, and they have an outstanding spa where highly trained professionals treat you like a king/queen! Very great location, plenty lockers, big changing areas with showers, rather cleaner venue than most other Better Me places I had been to! Thereβs also a nice coffee and snack bar at the entrance for people to get together or wait for their beloved ones to finish their activities, and it is very reasonably priced with big range of healthy options!
π Family Action Verdict
Best for families who want pool access alongside spa or fitness facilities in a central London location. The toddler-friendly leisure pool works well for younger children. Check lane availability before attending for lap swimming β lesson blocks regularly reduce adult lane access, and class schedules can change at short notice.

βHave only just joined the leisure centre and as yet havenβt used all the facilities, however , treated myself to a 2 hour Spa Session today and it was ridiculously relaxing! Hydro pool, sauna, steam room, infrared sauna, monsoon shower and an amazingly calm dry chill out area. I will definitely be booking again. Staff at the leisure centre go the extra mile and are so so friendly. Well done Kensington Leisure Centre and Thankyouβ

βNice, big, and clean gym, swimming and leisure centre. One of the best in the London area. All facilities are well located and organized. I swim there and the pool is great, everything is very clean and organized, and the staff is excellent.β

βIβm very disappointed with Better Kensington Leisure. What was once a welcoming and well-organised centre has noticeably declined. The management is a major concern. Iβve personally witnessed managers speaking down to staff, which creates a negative atmosphere and affects the overall experience for members. Itβs clear that egos often take priority over professionalism and supporting the team. The loss of Jeff has made a huge difference. He personally gave me my induction and literally held every role in the centre. Jeff was approachable, knowledgeable and genuinely cared about both the staff and members. Since he left, the quality of the centre has suffered significantly. Classes are frequently cancelled, making it hard to rely on the schedule. As a paying member, consistency is essential, and unfortunately, this is no longer the case. For these reasons, Iβve decided to cancel my membership. Itβs disappointing, as the centre once had so much potential, but without better leadership and a reliable class program, itβs simply not the same experience.β

Overview
The centre runs a main pool with lane swimming, a leisure pool with toddler-friendly features, and a spa including hydro pool, sauna, steam room, infrared sauna, and monsoon shower. Fitness classes include Zumba and structured sessions for various ages. A cafe at the entrance serves healthy snacks. Spacious changing areas with lockers and showers. Some lane availability is reserved for swimming lessons β checking ahead avoids arriving to find lanes restricted.
