Wow is all I can say. My husband is a gym guy, he tries gyms in every city or town we visit on vacation. After 1 visit, he told me I needed to try this gym and he wasn't kidding. Walking in you are greeted by one of the nicest guys, he makes you feel welcome without being pushy. Since we are in town for vacation and getting a day pass, he informed us that all day pass dollars collected are donated to a specific charity connected with the gym. Each Henry's gym location has a charity they donate to. Such an amazing group of people who are willing to donate to a local charity to help the community. On to the actual workout. There are 2 floors with specific lighting to help your body and mind while putting in your hard work. The equipment at this gym Gym80 and Hammer Strength Equipment are smooth, clean, well maintained and comfortable to use. If you are not into loading and unloading your own equipment, head up to the 3rd floor where you will find all the pin loaded equipment. My legs are on fire, they have equipment at this gym I've never seen before. My glutes are gonna be hurting tomorrow. Every pin loaded machine was easy to use and smooth. On to the basement level/plate loaded machines (where my husband spent most of his time) beautiful red lighting, great overhead lighting so you can see your progress, clean, unbeat up plates, smooth equipment that goes up without chains clicking or belts squeaking. Don't visit if you are expecting to get away with poor gym etiquette, every machine is expected to be wiped down (as it should) and unloaded for other people. This gym gets 5 stars from my husband and I. If we could give 6 stars we would but 5 will have to do. We are looking forward to heading back in the am. read more

I'm updating my review because my experience with Henry's changed significantly over time. To be fair, my first few months were genuinely enjoyable. The facility is beautiful, and I had an excellent personal trainer who made coming to the gym something I looked forward to. Much of my positive experience was because of her, not management. Looking back, there were already red flags. When I signed up for personal training, I believed I was agreeing to pay around $600 for six months of training. It wasn't until later that I realized it was actually about $600 per month for six months, a much larger financial commitment than I understood. Whether intentional or not, I found the pricing presentation misleading. Where my opinion changed completely was management. Over time, I observed a pattern of defensiveness whenever legitimate concerns were raised. Instead of listening to constructive feedback, management often dismissed it, shifted responsibility back onto the customer, and framed recurring concerns as misunderstandings rather than considering whether their communication or business practices could be improved. That left me feeling unheard and made me lose confidence in how the business operates. After my experience, I researched Henry's further and found many other people describing similar concerns involving confusing contracts, difficulty cancelling memberships, continued billing, and collection threats. Reading those accounts made me realize my experience wasn't unique. While I can only speak to my own experience, it was concerning to see so many people raising similar issues. I also found it disappointing that a business which publicly emphasizes community and inclusivity did not seem to demonstrate the same level of empathy or flexibility when members experienced unexpected hardships or needed reasonable accommodations. In my experience, there was a disconnect between the values the business projects and the way concerns were handled. This is subjective, but I've also always felt uncomfortable with some of the cultural artwork displayed throughout the gym. While I understand the intention may have been to celebrate different cultures, some pieces came across as stereotypical rather than thoughtful, and it never sat quite right with me. Finally, I noticed that the gym's Google rating has increased substantially over a relatively short period after remaining much lower for a long time. I don't know what accounts for the change, but it stood out to me given that similar complaints continue to appear on other review platforms. I genuinely appreciated my trainer and the quality of the facility. Unfortunately, management's lack of transparency, accountability, and willingness to accept constructive criticism ultimately overshadowed those positives. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Henry's Gymnasium. read more

The place is very nice, but the training staff is subpar and vastly overpriced, the assistant manager girl is obstinate and rude, getting out of your contract is hard, and they have poor business practices both for their customers and their trainers. If you want personal training, you've got to obviously pay for a membership and then on top of that it's 100$ a session, and you have to also pay the bill for the training app they make you use. I've never once had to pay for a company's service fee for a platform in their system. It's absurd and cheap. They also don't give their trainer's any agency. The managers, neither of whom are trainers, run every tour, and then they decide which trainer gets the people who sign up. The trainers themselves just basically wait around for their schedule to become livable, and they launched a small group training class, and from what I understand talking to the trainers and staff there, they had a guy program the whole thing, which he didn't get paid for and only paid him for a couple of classes a week. Meanwhile they had dozens of customers who just signed up and never ended up going paying monthly for the classes, and they weren't paying him for the programs he was writing despite the passive overhead they were getting. Once he left, they just suddenly dropped the program. I guess nobody else could design it. Furthermore, most of the trainers looked very apathetic, like they were going through motions waiting for the sessions to end. There were two good Asian coaches, but everyone else seemed unmotivated, and under qualified. Would not reccomend this gym if you care about the ethical aspects of the fitness industry both towards customers and employees. Equipment is legitimately very high quality though read more

I used to really love Henry's but the training team and management staffing has changed for the worst. The current GM, Wayne, lacks professionalism, tact, and overall awareness. It's attitudes like his that will drive business away. While I can appreciate the quality and inclusiveness of this gym, the immaturity in staffing's ability to simply only say "sorry" and not offer a solution to regular gym complaints is crazy. read more

I visited for the first time using my friend's guest pass. It was my first time coming to the gym in over a decade and it did not disappoint. The inside is much larger than it appears from the street. It feels like a lounge when you walk in. It's modern and hip; not stuffy or traditional. It's really clean and everyone practices good hygiene by wiping down each machine after use. It didn't feel intimidating or creepy at all, which is important to me as a woman. Bonus that it's ADA accessible, too. The digital lockers are very convenient. The co-ed open locker and bathroom concept is a bit new and strange for me. There's only two showers BTW. read more

Great staff, incredible facility, and overall pleasant exercising experience. Also really enjoy the sauna facilities they offer, it's a great way to end a workout. read more

Hidden fees and an extremely hard-to-cancel contract even though they tell you that you can cancel anytime. Pricing was not clearly explained when I signed up and getting out of the membership required far more effort than it should. The gym itself is super nice and clean, but the lack of transparency and difficult cancellation process make it hard to recommend for anyone who doesn't read the contract with a microscope. Again, READ THE CONTRACT and then reconsider your life choices before signing up for Henry's. read more

Wonderful gym with excellent equipment and a great atmosphere! Best hack squat machine in town; and Wayne is always ready to help when you need it. Every day after a long day at work, coming to Henry's helps me unwind and just relax. The people here have happily accepted me as part of the community at Henry's. read more

Good workout! A bit pricey on the day pass ($33 incl.tax), but was able to use more facilities than expected.

Such a great experience at Henry's. The space is so clean and chill, plenty of equipment available. The staff is super friendly and I'm really into the wellness add ons like sauna and massage chair. I'll be returning soon! read more

Moved to Seattle in May and toured Henry's and a few other gyms. Decided the atmosphere, layout, equipment, and price at Henry's was exactly what I was looking for. Pulled the trigger in late June and couldn't be happier. The gym has a ton of top of the line and ergonomic equipment that provides an awesome workout. The layout is spacious and well organized over 3 floors. The atmosphere and vibe is both fun and exciting but also chill and intimate at the same time. The culture, artwork, and lighting is a whole mood. Finally, the staff are super cool, welcoming, and friendly and really make the experience enjoyable. I didn't feel pressured to join and everyone I interacted with was helpful. read more

High quality newer gym with a couple issues. 1. The price is crazy high. I only go to this gym because of a deal they had that is saving me like $100 a month and it's the closest/nicest gym near me. 2. They pressure you into signing up for a year. There is a deal you get after your tour of the gym but if you don't accept it RIGHT THEN AND THERE you lose out on the deal. 3. There is a whole section of the gym blocked off for 'classes' but I've not once seen a class being taught in there and I would like to have more room to do abs since the abs section is enough space for 2-3 people. read more

Been a member for about a month now and have had a great experience. Staff is helpful, facilities are nice and maintained, vibe is good, and can always get to the equipment I want to use without much of a wait. Highly recommend! read more

Over priced and now over crowded. Only like one of each machine. So lots of waiting. Definitely don't sign up for the over priced amenities. Complete waste of money. Won't be renewing. read more

They really need to reconsider their sales tactic. It is a good gym with overpriced membership. They want to and will trap you with very desirable but expensive plan. They will say, their sale price is available only on your first tour. They will push you to sign the contract and you will pay 500 dollar fine when you want to change or terminate your contract. I have been attending to many different gym for last 40 years and this gym sickens me. They need to change their policies. read more

My original experience when signing up was not the greatest, however, there has been significant personnel changes, which has brought a new and fresh energy to the gym. I love the environment and it helps me to feel energized when working out. The front desk staff is friendly and informative. I go 4 to 5 times a week and there has only been a handful of times where I do struggle to find a bench or a piece of equipment. This is just something that I adapt too. It would be nice if there were more adjustable benches since there are only two, and if somebody is using both, you are no longer able to perform some activities. Where the flat benches tend to never get used. The other thing I would recommend is having free weights someplace upstairs, with a couple benches, because if you need to do super sets using dumbbells, you have to go up and down the stairs or elevator to access them, which does not help with being efficient in your workout. I've seen a drastic difference in how the gym's ran. I like the people, cleanliness and I enjoy the fact that it's a hip modern vibe. I'd recommend checking it out. read more

I signed up prior to Henry's opening in Capitol Hill. I was very excited for a new gym in the neighborhood, and they advertised spa amenities like cold plunges and saunas. I signed up for a yearlong membership at the "founding member" price, thinking that this would be a luxury experience and I would be able to regularly use the spa amenities. When I finally was able to in person tour the facilities, I was told by the owner that the cold plunge baths were drained after each use and cleaned. My complaints about Henry's are: 1: the baths are not drained after each use. Each time I've used them, there have been large amounts of dirt particles swirling around. After bringing this up to management, they assured me that despite the dirt particles, because of the solution they use in the cold plunge, it's technically sterile. Not a great experience if you're paying over 200/month to use a bath that is visibly dirty (girl hello?! So gross- people use it naked and there's a bunch of dirt and sand at the bottom). 2: the management is SO pushy. I know folks have already talked about this on the Queen Anne location yelp page, but I've had some experiences here that leave such a bad taste in my mouth: -when I first joined, I brought my friend in for a tour because I wanted her to sign up so we could work out together. They reallyyyy try to lock you in with yearlong billing at this place from the get-go, and the way they do it is through used car salesman tactics (most notably pressure to buy asap to get the best deal or lose out). I know that this is just a typical gym ploy, but I used to go to Rain City Fit and their model of getting folks to join was just not at all like this, so I was really turned off experiencing this at Henry's. -I asked to bump down my membership tier because I'm so grossed out by the cold plunge baths that I haven't used them in months, and management refuses and doesn't take any responsibility and says that billing is all out of their hands. Their version of "make it right" was the owner was telling me that they have a new piece of equipment that is some kind of frost chamber that isn't a cold plunge that I should use instead. To be honest though, at this point, I'm so irritated with their business model that I'm not interested at all in exploring any of their amenities, and I'm so irritated that my money is going to support this kind of customer service. If you're curious whether my experience is unique, check out the low reviews on the Queen Anne location's yelp. I didn't see them until after I already signed up, but it looks like the owner won't even let you negotiate a change in membership if you have a major health emergency (what a grift). Nice things about Henry's: if you live right in the neighborhood it's convenient. The base member price when it's on sale is like 75$/month and probably worth your money for that price point. Machines are new. The staff (not management) who work there are friendly and nice. Anyways tl;dr- save yourselves, save your wallet. If you're looking for a great gym that wants to build community in Capitol Hill and won't nickel and dime you, go to Rain City Fit. read more

This gym is incredible. They offer a variety of memberships, including monthly for those looking for more flexibility. Management is great, the gym is clean, and the community is amazing! read more

Without question, the coolest gym experience I've had on the West Coast. Really cool history with queer advocacy brought me to the Cap Hill location, and the rich curation of equipment kept me here. Chase and Austin were incredibly friendly and insightful, they made me feel welcome! After nearly a decade of weightlifting I've seen several machines that were new to me. A+ read more
