The 10 Best Gyms In Phnom Penh Cambodia

Gym bunnies need not fear piling on the pounds while in Phnom Penh, because the Cambodian capital is full of gyms, ranging from basic to high-tech. Here are the 10 best gyms to be found in Phnom Penh.

1. The Place

Gym, Swimming Pool

Probably the capital’s most popular gym, The Place is usually packed with Phnom Penh’s affluent locals and expats. Air-conditioned throughout, the gym offers aerobics and yoga classes and is home to a large swimming pool, as well as the usual fitness suites. Personal training services are also provided.

2. Physique Club at Cambodiana Hotel

Having recently celebrated its 10th anniversary, Muscle Fitness offers value-for-money to its patrons. The air-conditioned space is packed full of weight training equipment and a swathe of tools to help out with cardio regimes. A steam room is also available.

7. Aerobics at Olympic Stadium

Park, Stadium

While this probably isn’t going to cut it for fitness fanatics, the aerobics sessions that take place every dusk and dawn across Phnom Penh are well worth attending, if only for the experience. Classes take place in many areas, including riverside (or Sisowath Quay) and Wat Botum Park. However, the sessions at National Stadium come recommended because it’s a great spot to watch the sunset and see the action taking place on the courts below.

8. Sofitel Phnom Penh Phokeethra

Sofitel Phnom Penh Phokeethra boasts a range of fitness facilities. So Fit offers cardio workouts, exercise bikes, running machines and weights, with trained fitness supervisors on hand. Phokeethra Sport Club features the latest fitness equipment, a range of classes, two squash courts, four tennis courts and outdoor pool.
