Expert Reviews of Holmes Place Health Clubs

Holmes Place looks very sleek and attractive, the locker rooms are full of extra amenities and all of the equipment is very new. I really enjoyed their lunchtime yoga classes, which are a nice peaceful break...

Best Facility In Chicago

As of 2006, this is the best facility in Chicago. I've been a member at Lifetime Fitness and Lakeshore Athletic Club. Holmes Place is better than those quality clubs. The best aspects are cleanliness,...

What Chicago needed!

Terrible experience

Although this gym has a great facility the management team and their lack of ability to deliver on promises makes Holmes Place nearly worthless. There were numerous problems at the beginning of our membership...

modern and stylish, here to cash in
