If you want something on the more luxurious side, then you must consider LivingWell Health Club which is situated within the 5 star Hilton Hotel in St Julians.

4. 24/7 Fitness Club

Considering the fact that it has been open for the past 15 years, 24/7 Fitness Club is probably one of the most well-known gyms in Malta.

As you might have noticed, we did not put down a location for it due to the fact that there are 5 locations available for you to choose from: Ta’ Qali, Mellieha, San Gwann, St Paul’s Bay and Santa Lucia.

Memberships are divided into Gold Single and Gold Couple, for a monthly, quarterly, half yearly or yearly fee. One can also find the Bronze Single and Bronze Couple Memberships which can only be used at Santa Lucia Club (if you’re applying for a Gold Single Membership, we recommend applying online for a 5% discount on the membership fee). Included when signing up for a membership at 24/7 Fitness Club one would get the following:

An in house shop is also available for members to purchase all the necessary nutrients and supplements to complement your fitness routine and lifestyle.

What makes this fitness centre different from others is that it also has a physiotherapy clinic, a beauty clinic, and a barber shop on site so you can get pampered right after a workout session.

All 5 clubs are similar yet different. All clubs vary in size, with the largest being the Ta Qali Club at 1100sqm, whilst Santa Lucia’s being the smallest at 200sqm. One finds various cardiovascular and strength training machines and a fully equipped functioning training area.
