Updated October 2026 · No paid placements
How we choose: we took the gyms and fitness centres Google Maps returned for our search within about 18 km of central George Town, kept those rated 4.4 or higher with at least 40 reviews and still open, one branch per brand, and ordered them by a review-weighted score. Penang's best-reviewed gyms are mostly local clubs in the south of the island, so we name each area. Details come from each venue's own website where it has one, checked in October 2026; we have not visited these places. No venue paid to be listed.
Each category is its own list. Choosing another one opens that list.
The lowest price each place publishes on its own website; the three bands are cut from this list.
