I'm probably gonna start going to PureGym Aldgate and Shoreditch more. Don't know if they are any good though.

Although not in London, PureGym Cardiff has a beautiful shower setup. Individual cubicles, but there's no frosted glass at all! Clear view into each shower. I think I'd go for the one straight in front of the stairs!

has anyone gone to the nudist session in ENergybase pool? I was thinking about going this Sunday (it's open again!)

How frosted is the glass? Puregym i visited recently was basically opaque

Here is a comprehensive list based on visits and other reviews:

1. Oasis Sports Centre - near Covent Garden. The king of communal showers. Wetside mens changing room features 8 communal showers which open out fully into the main changing area. Towel hooks before you enter. Walkway to toilets and exits to pool go past the shower so plenty of people walk past. Although its a wetside changing area, nobody showers in trunks. Some even use the urinals completely naked. A very homoerotic experience, but certainly not a gay gym.

2. Sobell Leisure Centre - Islington - About 4-6 open showers with one additional cubicle shower in mens changing area. Towel hooks on the way in. Gets quite busy in the evenings when 5aside footballers are in the changing room.

3. Marshall St Leisure - Soho - yet to visit, but has very good reviews.

4. Better Gym Holloway - Islington - A very small communal shower area. If full, it would be almost cheek-to-cheek. Never seen many using it.

5. Islington Tennis Centre (need confirmation) - Yet to visit.

6. Muscle Bull Gym - Bermondsey (Central) - Four open showers. There's also a mens sauna in the changing room. Attracts gay crowd

7. Cyclebeat - Lombard Court - Approx 6 very open showers in the mens chaning area to use after a spinning session.

8. Finsbury Leisure Centre - Islington - Seven open showers in mens changing area

9. Ringside Boxing Gym - Bow - Open showers in the changing area. They are also available for filmmakers who use communal shower scenes.

10. Flaxman Sports Centre - Lambeth - (needs confirmation)

What is the best time to visit Oasis?

What is the best time to visit Oasis?

Honestly it's always quite busy, as its in central London. Plenty of working men will visit before work, on a lunch break or after work. I've been at 1pm on a Tuesday before and there were probably 6 people showering at the same time, with someone at every changing bench too.

That sounds good! Also some action??

I live in Manchester but I'm seriously thinking about arranging a trip to London in the next few weeks just to visit this Oasis place!

Seven Islands Leisure Centre has open showers in the mens gym changing room, all close together. And a bonus is attached to the changing room is a sauna and 'relaxation' room, with two open shower heads. Seen a lot of people using the sauna and showers nude.

Is there anywhere good in Manchester? I went to the Manchester Uni gym once which had open showers but no one seemed to use them...

My take on Oasis is is that it's always pretty busy you may be a bit disappointed depending on who you want to shower with...

Been tempted but never went. Heard it was mostly older, which isn't really my thing. If you go, report back.

Not really in Manc. Yeah I used to go to the Man Uni ones when I was in uni. They were quite quiet unless it was a five-a-side footy night; then all the teams would be in there afterwards.

I've heard there's open showers at a Pure gym not too far from me so I'm gonna go and check it out next week.

If anyone else is from Manchester though and wants a gym buddy then let me know!

I'm following your advise and trying the Porchester Spa today. I'll let you know how it went
