Train at 3am or after a red-eye flight: these are Singapore's best round-the-clock gyms for 2026. Anytime Fitness is usually written up as a chain that hides its prices, but every open club links to an online sign-up page, and on 11 September 2026 all 164 of them quoted the same rate card: $138/month on 6 months, $118 on 12, $108 on 18, plus a $95 joining fee and a $95 key fob fee. 24/7 Fitness undercuts that at $98/month on 12 months with no fees at all, across 24 outlets whose full addresses are listed below (a 25th, at The Woodleigh Mall, is on the chain's own directory but not open yet). Also here: The Gym Pod's pay-per-use private pods from $6 a session, and two no-contract neighbourhood options. Prices, outlets and contract terms were read off each gym's own channels on 11 September 2026.
Whether you finish at midnight, chase a 5am session before the kids wake, or just hate a crowded gym, here are the 5 best 24-hour gyms in Singapore for 2026.
> Quick view: the cheapest full-size membership is 24/7 Fitness at $98/month on 12 months with no fees. Anytime Fitness has 164 open clubs but prices every one of them at $108-138/month plus $190 in one-off fees. Train under eight times a month and The Gym Pod from $6 a session beats both.
The category leader and the easy default. Anytime Fitness's own gym finder listed 172 Singapore locations on 11 September 2026: 164 open and 8 marked Coming Soon or Opening Soon. That is the highest density of any 24-hour chain here, so there is usually one near both home and work, and your membership unlocks the 6,000+ Anytime gyms the brand's global site advertises. All clubs are 24/7 with secure keycard access, CCTV and wall-mounted safety alarms. PRICING is published, despite the widespread claim that it is not. Every open club page carries a Join Online button, and behind it sits a full rate card: S$138/month on a 6-month contract, S$118 on 12 months, S$108 on 18 months, or the same money paid in full at S$828, S$1,416 and S$1,944. Every plan adds a S$95 joining fee and a S$95 key fob fee, so S$190 lands on your first payment. 135 clubs sell online and 133 of them quote those exact figures, City Hall included, so there is no cheap heartland tier and no expensive CBD tier. Two clubs break the pattern: Chong Pang waives the joining fee, and Changi City Point runs a S$106.20 Samsung Health Challenge plan with the joining fee waived. A quirk worth using: at 127 of 135 clubs the 12-month pay-in-full package is written as a 13-month contract, and the 18-month one as 19 months, for the same total, so prepaying buys a free extra month. TRIALS: 154 open clubs offer a 1-day pass, nine offer 5 days (Ang Mo Kio South, Bukit Batok Le Quest, Bukit Timah Central, Chong Pang, City Hall, City Square Mall, Mountbatten, Upper Changi and Upper Serangoon) and Jurong offers 3. BEST FOR: people who want maximum convenience and global access and will use the club often enough to absorb the S$190 of one-off fees. Note that the club counts printed on individual club pages are stale template text, ranging from 3,500 to 5,500+ worldwide, so ignore them and use the gym finder.
From $108/mo on 18 months, plus a $95 joining fee and a $95 key fob fee. Free 1-day trial at 154 clubs, 5 days at nine of them.
The value champion. 24/7 Fitness is the Hong Kong chain that acquired homegrown GymmBoxx in 2024; it now runs 24 open outlets, all 24-hour, across the island. The pricing is the clearest of any full-size chain here, with NO joining fee and NO card fee: S$98/month on a 12-month plan, S$128 (6-month), S$168 (3-month), or S$178 on a rolling monthly basis, and every plan gets you into every outlet in the network. Expect a strong free-weights and strength-training set-up. LIVE PROMO: full-time university and tertiary students in Singapore get a one-time S$40 off the membership fee on their first or second month when they sign up as new members between 1 September and 31 October 2026, announced on the chain's own Singapore Telegram channel. Bring a valid student ID or proof of enrolment. OUTLETS: there are exactly 24 open, all around the clock, and one membership covers the lot. The big three are the Orchard flagship at Pacific Plaza (about 10,000 sqft), Our Tampines Hub (about 11,000 sqft, the chain's largest here) and The Seletar Mall beside Fernvale LRT (about 6,600 sqft). The other 21 are Bishan, The Cathay, Cross Street, Tanjong Pagar, Jalan Besar, Kallang, Whampoa, Margaret Market, Tai Seng, Tampines North, Elias Mall, Marine Parade, Fernvale, Anchorvale, Ci Yuan, Canberra Plaza, Vista Point, Beauty World, Ulu Pandan, Keat Hong and Yew Tee. Full addresses for all 24 are in the outlet table further down, re-checked against the chain's own club directory on 11 September 2026. A 25TH IS COMING: the same directory now carries a Woodleigh club at 11 Bidadari Park Drive #01-54, The Woodleigh Mall, S367803, flagged inactive. The mall's own tenant directory lists no gym yet, so treat it as an opening rather than an option. Whampoa CC remains the newest open outlet and the first here with the chain's NewTech equipment. PERSONAL TRAINING is priced separately, by block: S$105 a session for 1-20 sessions, S$95 for 21-50 and S$85 for 51-100. ONE NAVIGATION NOTE: sg.247.fitness forwards to the group site at 247.fitness, which carries the Singapore rate card and the Singapore club list, so it is a valid place to check, and the 24/7 Fitness app is the quickest way to confirm a club is open before you travel. There is no publicly listed day pass; ask the outlet directly. BEST FOR: lifters who want full-size-gym facilities and islandwide access at the lowest all-in price, and anyone who wants a genuine no-lock-in month (take the rolling monthly tier).
STUDENTS: $40 off the membership fee, 1 Sep to 31 Oct 2026. From $98/mo (12-mo) to $178 rolling monthly; no joining fee, no card fee. PT from $85/session.
Valid till 31 Oct 2026
Singapore's pioneer of the pay-per-use, fully private gym. The Gym Pod's own location directory listed 51 sites across Singapore on 11 September 2026: 43 automated pods (compact, air-conditioned private gyms) in the CBD, Orchard, Tampines, Hougang, Changi and the parks, plus four NOVA Training open gyms, two Dungeon Fitness partner gyms, one semi-private Unleashed studio at Dhoby Ghaut MRT and a new Rumble Pod at Buangkok Square Mall, all bookable in the same app. You download the app, pick a pod near you, book a 30-minute slot, and pay only for that session: no membership, no contract, no joining fee. PRICING by time band: Off-Peak S$6 (11pm-6am), Standard S$9 (6am-5pm), Premium S$12 (5pm-11pm), and you can bring a training partner for an extra S$1.50 per person per session; first-timers get a 50% welcome discount on their first booking through the app. If you go often, three subscriptions cut the per-session cost: a Premium Plan at S$12.90/month billed quarterly (up to 30% off sessions, 30-day priority booking and free last-minute rescheduling), a Starter Pack at S$69/month for 10 sessions, and a Power Pack at S$179/month for 30 sessions. Rates can vary by pod and subscriptions are not accepted at every pod, so check live pricing in the app, and note that rescheduling within 24 hours costs S$2 unless you are a subscriber. Each pod is private (you and your guests only), which makes it a standout for women, beginners, couples training together, or anyone who finds big gyms intimidating. BEST FOR: irregular schedules, occasional gym-goers, and privacy. Equipment is commercial-grade cardio and strength but space is compact, so check the pod's equipment list in the app before booking.
50% off your first booking (welcome offer); from $6 / 30-min off-peak
A no-nonsense 24-hour neighbourhood gym for people who just want to lift without a long contract. Ark Move's Woodleigh outlet is at 462 Upper Serangoon Road (S534496) and its own sign-up site, join.arkmove.com, publishes the rate card in full: S$90/month month-to-month, no contract and no lock-in, with the membership freezable for S$10/month and a welcome kit the gym values at S$68 for successful unlimited sign-ups. THE BIG CHANGE since our last check: the initiation fee is normally S$100, but the 2026 Arkkies anniversary promo has cut it to S$5 across all four Ark brands, with no end date published, which makes joining almost free. The gym is staffed from 12pm to 9pm and runs unmanned the rest of the day. Worth knowing before you plan around it: the Arkkies brand hub still says Ark Move is at Jurong East, West Coast and Woodleigh, while join.arkmove.com's own contact block lists only the Woodleigh outlet, and arkkies.com itself is a members-only login wall with no public outlet or price list. Treat Woodleigh as the one you can count on and confirm any other branch on +65 8023 7234 before joining for it. The vibe is straightforward and community-focused: free weights, racks, machines and cardio, without the premium price or the 18-month tie-in. BEST FOR: heartland residents near Woodleigh who want simple, flexible 24/7 access and dislike lock-in contracts.
$5 initiation fee instead of $100 in the 2026 Arkkies anniversary promo; $90/mo month-to-month, freeze for $10/mo, welcome kit valued at $68
An iron-focused 24-hour gym for people who care more about heavy free weights than fancy facilities. Dennis Gym's own location page lists four branches: Tai Seng (30 Tai Seng St, #08-04A, S534013), Tampines (6 Tampines St 92, yo:HA Commercial #03-04, S528893), Jurong (1 Jurong West Ave 5, S649483) and Balestier (279 Balestier Road, Balestier Point #B1-00, S329727), all operating 24 hours by access key. There are no membership lock-ins and no sign-up fees, but you cannot simply walk in and start: each branch page states consultation before acceptance, and lists the same number, +65 8543 2903, to arrange it. Tai Seng is run as a service gym and Jurong is operated by Fitnetic Gym, so facilities differ between branches. The long-running Farrer Park branch on Kitchener Road still does not appear on the gym's own location page or sitemap, although several third-party directories list it, so call ahead before heading there. The site publishes no membership prices at all, and its Latest Promotion page carries only a generic monthly-special line with no offer attached, so the monthly rate has to be asked for. Expect a deep free-weight selection (barbells, dumbbells to high weights, racks, specialty bars) and a serious, training-first atmosphere rather than group classes or spa-style extras. BEST FOR: powerlifters, bodybuilders and experienced lifters who want plenty of plates and racks at any hour without a contract.
No lock-in and no sign-up fee, but prices are not published and entry is by consultation: call +65 8543 2903 first
| Gym | Best for | Outlets | From | Contract |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Anytime Fitness | Island + global access | 164 open in SG | $108/mo + $190 fees | 6, 12 or 18-mo |
| 24/7 Fitness | Best value full-size gym | 24 (all listed below) | $98/mo (12-mo), no fees | 12/6/3-mo or rolling |
| The Gym Pod | Pay-per-use, private | 43 pods (51 sites) | $6 / 30-min | None (per session) |
| Ark Move | No-contract neighbourhood | 1 confirmed (Woodleigh) | $90/mo + $5 join now | Month-to-month |
| Dennis Gym | Serious lifters | 4 | Not published | No lock-in |
Anytime Fitness is routinely written up as a chain that keeps its prices secret and lets every franchisee set its own. That is not how joining works any more. Each open club's page on anytimefitness.sg carries a Join Online button, and behind it sits a complete rate card. On 11 September 2026 we pulled the published packages for all 164 open Singapore clubs: 135 sell online, and 133 of those 135 quote exactly the same prices.
| Plan | Pay monthly | Pay in full | What the contract says |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6 months | $138/mo | $828 | 6 months |
| 12 months | $118/mo | $1,416 | 13 months if paid in full, at 127 of 135 clubs |
| 18 months | $108/mo | $1,944 | 19 months if paid in full, at 128 of 135 clubs |
Every plan also carries a $95 joining fee and a separate $95 key fob fee, so $190 lands on your first payment whichever tier you pick.
Three things follow that the usual write-ups get wrong:
So the cheapest realistic first year is $1,606 ($1,416 for 12 months plus the $190 of fees), and an 18-month prepaid membership works out at $112.32 a month all in.
Two caveats. This is the online rate card: a club can still quote something different at the counter, and outlets run local promotions, so treat it as the published price rather than the last word. And ignore the club counts printed on individual club pages, which are stale template text that variously claims 3,500, 4,700, 5,000 and 5,500+ gyms worldwide. The gym finder is the number that moves.
These are the two full-size 24-hour chains most people end up choosing between, and once the fees are counted the gap is bigger than the headline rates suggest.
| Anytime Fitness | 24/7 Fitness | |
|---|---|---|
| Open outlets in SG | 164 (plus 8 coming soon) | 24 |
| Cheapest monthly | $108 (18-month) | $98 (12-month) |
| No-lock-in option | None | $178 rolling monthly |
| Joining fee | $95 | None |
| Card / key fob fee | $95 | None |
| First 12 months, all in | $1,606 | $1,176 |
| Overseas access | 6,000+ gyms worldwide | Group network in Asia |
Anytime Fitness wins on coverage. 164 open clubs means there is almost certainly one near home as well as one near work, and your card works overseas at the 6,000+ gyms the brand's global site advertises.
24/7 Fitness wins on price. One published rate card for the whole island, no joining fee, no card fee, and a genuine no-commitment monthly tier. Over a first year it is about $430 cheaper. The catch is reach: 24 outlets, so it only works if one is genuinely on your route.
Rule of thumb: Anytime if convenience and travel matter more than the money; 24/7 Fitness if you want the lowest all-in cost and the freedom to leave.
There are exactly 24 open, all around the clock, and one membership covers every one of them. Addresses below were re-checked against 24/7 Fitness's own club directory on 11 September 2026, and all 24 matched.

| *Woodleigh (not open yet)* | 11 Bidadari Park Drive, The Woodleigh Mall #01-54, S367803 | North-East |
A 25th is on the way. The same directory now carries a Woodleigh club at The Woodleigh Mall, flagged inactive. The mall's own tenant directory lists no gym at all yet, so treat it as an opening rather than an option, and useful mainly if you live in Bidadari. Whampoa CC remains the newest open outlet and the first here to get the chain's NewTech equipment. The chain entered Singapore in 2024 by acquiring GymmBoxx and rebranding its nine clubs, and has said it is targeting 40 locations.
Students, there is $40 on the table. 24/7 Fitness is running a one-time $40 off the membership fee for full-time university and tertiary students who join as new members between 1 September and 31 October 2026, applied to your first or second month. Bring a valid student ID or proof of enrolment. It was announced on the chain's own Singapore Telegram channel and is not advertised on the rate-card page, so ask for it at sign-up.
Where to check: sg.247.fitness forwards to the group site at 247.fitness, whose Find Club page lists the Singapore outlets alongside the Singapore rate card. The 24/7 Fitness app is still the fastest way to confirm a specific club is open before you travel, and the Singapore Facebook page gets new-opening announcements first.
If you want racks you won't have to queue for, size matters more than brand:
Anytime Fitness outlet sizes vary a lot because each club is franchised, and since the online price is the same everywhere, a heartland shophouse unit can cost exactly what the City Hall floorplate costs. Walk in before you commit.
If you train fewer than about eight times a month, a membership is usually the wrong purchase. Pay-per-use options here:
Do the maths before signing. At $9 a session, The Gym Pod only costs more than a $98/month 24/7 Fitness membership once you pass about 11 sessions a month, and more than Anytime Fitness's cheapest effective rate of $112.32 once you pass about 12.
Disclosure: prices and contract terms are set by each gym and can differ by outlet, so always confirm in person before signing. MissLobang earns no commission from your sign-up.
*Anytime Fitness's 172 Singapore listings (164 open, 8 coming soon), the $138/$118/$108 rate card, the $95 joining and $95 key fob fees and the trial-pass lengths were pulled from the club directory and the online sign-up pages linked from anytimefitness.sg on 11 September 2026; the 6,000+ worldwide figure is from anytimefitness.com. The 24 outlet addresses, the $98-178 rate card, the $105/$95/$85 personal-training tiers and the not-yet-open Woodleigh club came from 24/7 Fitness's own club directory and membership pages on the same day, and the student offer from its Singapore Telegram channel post of 1 September 2026. The Gym Pod's rates, packs and 51-site network are from thegympod.com. Ark Move's $90/month rate, $5 promotional initiation fee, $10 freeze and $68 welcome kit are from its own sign-up site, join.arkmove.com; arkkies.com remains a members-only login. Dennis Gym's four branches and consultation policy are from dennisgym.net.*
*Cover image: Anytime Fitness Singapore's own official campaign visual (anytimefitness.sg).*
Anytime Fitness publishes its Singapore prices, contrary to the usual claim that it does not. Every open club page on anytimefitness.sg carries a Join Online button, and behind it is a full rate card. On 11 September 2026, 135 of the 164 open clubs sold online and 133 of them quoted identical figures: S$138/month on a 6-month contract, S$118/month on 12 months and S$108/month on 18 months, or the same amounts paid up front at S$828, S$1,416 and S$1,944. Every plan adds a S$95 joining fee and a S$95 key fob fee, so S$190 lands on your first payment whichever tier you choose. That makes the cheapest realistic first year S$1,606, and an 18-month prepaid membership works out at S$112.32 a month all in. Location makes no difference: City Hall inside CityLink Mall, the club usually called the largest here, costs exactly what a heartland club costs. Only two clubs deviate, both by waiving the joining fee: Chong Pang, and Changi City Point through a S$106.20 Samsung Health Challenge plan. This is the online rate, so a club can still quote you something different at the counter.
It depends on how you train. For unlimited full-size-gym access, 24/7 Fitness (formerly GymmBoxx) is the cheapest of the big chains at S$98/month on a 12-month plan with no joining fee and no card fee, which is S$1,176 for the year. Anytime Fitness's cheapest online tier is S$108/month on 18 months, but the S$95 joining fee and S$95 key fob fee push the first year to S$1,606, about S$430 more than 24/7 Fitness. Ark Move's Woodleigh gym runs S$90/month month-to-month and its 2026 anniversary promo has cut the one-off initiation fee from S$100 to S$5, which currently makes it the cheapest full membership of the lot if it is near you. If you only train a few times a month, the cheapest option is pay-per-use: The Gym Pod from S$6 for a 30-minute off-peak session (11pm-6am), with no membership at all. Add up your realistic monthly visits before committing: 8 or more a month usually favours a membership, fewer favours pay-per-use.
Yes, and it is the single biggest gap between Anytime Fitness and its rivals. Every online sign-up package at 133 of the 135 Singapore clubs that sell online carries a S$95 joining fee and a separate S$95 key fob fee, so S$190 is added to your first payment on top of the monthly rate. Two clubs waive the joining fee: Chong Pang, and Changi City Point on its S$106.20 Samsung Health Challenge plan. By contrast 24/7 Fitness charges no joining fee and no card fee at all, and The Gym Pod has nothing to join. Ark Move normally charges a S$100 initiation fee but has cut it to S$5 for its 2026 anniversary promo. If you are comparing headline monthly rates alone, you are missing about S$190 of Anytime Fitness's real cost, which is roughly two extra months at the 18-month rate.
24/7 Fitness (formerly GymmBoxx) charges S$98/month on a 12-month plan, S$128/month on a 6-month plan, S$168/month on a 3-month plan, or S$178/month on a rolling monthly basis with no commitment. There is no joining fee and no membership card fee, which is unusual for a full-size chain here, and every tier gives you access to all outlets in the Singapore network rather than just your home club. The 12-month tier works out to S$1,176 a year, so the rolling monthly option costs about S$80 a month more for the freedom to leave whenever you like. Students have a discount running right now: full-time university and tertiary students who sign up as new members between 1 September and 31 October 2026 get a one-time S$40 off their first or second month's membership fee, on production of a valid student ID or proof of enrolment. There is no publicly listed day pass, so ask your nearest outlet directly. Personal training is published separately and charged by the block: S$105 a session for 1-20 sessions, S$95 for 21-50 and S$85 for 51-100.
24/7 Fitness runs exactly 24 open outlets in Singapore, all around the clock, and one membership covers every one of them. Here is the complete list with addresses, re-checked against the chain's own club directory on 11 September 2026. CENTRAL AND CBD: Orchard, the roughly 10,000 sqft flagship, at 9 Scotts Road, Pacific Plaza #04-01, S228210; The Cathay, 2 Handy Road #04-04, S229233; Cross Street, 18 Cross Street, Cross Street Exchange #B1-23/24, S048423; Tanjong Pagar, 10 Hoe Chiang Road, Keppel South Central #05-03/04/05, S089315; Jalan Besar, 9 Townshend Road #02-01, S207607; Kallang, 49 Sims Avenue, S387413; Whampoa, 300 Whampoa Drive, Whampoa CC #01-02, S327737; Bishan, 51 Bishan Street 13, Bishan CC #04-01/02, S579799; Margaret Market, 38 Margaret Drive #02-07 to #02-11, S141038; and Tai Seng, 30 Tai Seng Street, BreadTalk iHQ #02-12/13, S534013. EAST: Our Tampines Hub, the chain's largest here at about 11,000 sqft, 1 Tampines Walk #03-03/04, S528523; Tampines North, 2 Tampines Street 41, Tampines North CC #03-01, S529204; Elias Mall, 625 Elias Road #02-332, S510625; and Marine Parade, 5 Marine Parade Central, iMall #B1-05/06/07, S449410. NORTH-EAST: The Seletar Mall, about 6,600 sqft, 33 Sengkang West Avenue #02-38, S797653; Fernvale, 21 Sengkang West Avenue, Fernvale CC #04-01, S797650; Anchorvale, 339 Anchorvale Road, Anchorvale Village #03-03, S540339; and Ci Yuan, 51 Hougang Avenue 9, Ci Yuan CC #04-01, S538776. NORTH: Canberra Plaza, 133 Canberra View #03-04/05, S750133; and Vista Point, 548 Woodlands Drive 44 #02-13/14, S730548. WEST: Beauty World, 118 Upper Bukit Timah Road, The LinQ #02-11 to #02-17, S588173; Ulu Pandan, 170 Ghim Moh Road, Ulu Pandan CC #01-05, S279621; Keat Hong, 2 Choa Chu Kang Loop, Keat Hong CC #04-02, S689687; and Yew Tee, 61 Choa Chu Kang Drive, Yew Tee MRT Station #02-01, S689715. A 25th club appeared on the same directory in September 2026, Woodleigh at 11 Bidadari Park Drive #01-54, The Woodleigh Mall, S367803, but it is flagged inactive and the mall's own tenant directory lists no gym yet, so it is an opening rather than an option. Whampoa CC remains the newest open outlet and the first here with the chain's NewTech equipment. The chain entered Singapore in 2024 by acquiring GymmBoxx and rebranding its nine clubs, and has said it is targeting 40 locations.
They win on different things, and the gap is wider than the headline rates suggest. ANYTIME FITNESS wins on coverage: 164 open clubs in Singapore with 8 more marked coming soon, far more than any rival, plus access to the 6,000+ gyms its global site advertises, so it is the better pick if you want one gym near home and another near work, or you travel often. It is also the dearer of the two once fees are counted: S$108 to S$138 a month depending on contract length, plus a S$95 joining fee and a S$95 key fob fee, which makes a first year S$1,606 at the 12-month rate. 24/7 FITNESS wins on price: one published rate card islandwide from S$98/month on 12 months down to S$178 rolling monthly, no joining fee, no card fee, a genuine no-commitment monthly tier, and S$1,176 for a first year, about S$430 less. Its catch is reach, at 24 outlets. One myth worth killing: Anytime Fitness is not an 18-month-only chain, because 6, 12 and 18-month contracts are all sold online. In short, choose Anytime Fitness if convenience and travel matter more than the money, and 24/7 Fitness if you want the lowest all-in cost, provided one of its 24 outlets is actually near you.
The major 24-hour chains are designed for unstaffed overnight hours and build in safety features: secure keycard or app entry so only members get in, CCTV throughout, and, at chains like Anytime Fitness, personal duress alarms on the wall. The Gym Pod takes privacy further, since you book a private, locked pod just for yourself or your group, so no strangers are around at all. Practical tips for solo late-night training: tell someone your plan, keep your phone on you, don't attempt a max lift without a spotter or safety arms (use a power rack with safeties or a Smith machine), and choose an outlet in a location you're comfortable travelling to and from at that hour. Overnight off-peak is also usually the quietest and cheapest time to train.
Policies vary a lot, so read the contract before signing. Anytime Fitness and other commitment-based chains typically allow a membership freeze, for travel or medical reasons and sometimes with a small monthly hold fee, but ending an 18-month contract early usually carries a penalty or requires paying out the remaining months. No-contract and month-to-month options are easiest to stop: Ark Move charges S$10/month to freeze and has no lock-in at all, Dennis Gym has no lock-in, and 24/7 Fitness's rolling monthly tier simply is not renewed. Pay-per-use has nothing to cancel, since The Gym Pod only ever charges per session. If flexibility matters to you, favour a month-to-month plan or pay-per-use even if the headline rate looks slightly higher, and always check the notice period, freeze terms and any admin fees in writing.
For women who want to train late without a crowd of strangers around, The Gym Pod is the standout: you book a private, app-locked pod just for yourself or a friend, so nobody else can walk in during your 30-minute slot, and it's air-conditioned and CCTV-covered, from S$6 off-peak (11pm-6am) with no membership. If you prefer a full-size gym, the big 24-hour chains (Anytime Fitness, 24/7 Fitness) are built for unstaffed hours with keycard or app-only entry, CCTV throughout and wall-mounted safety alarms, so only members are inside. Whichever you pick, the usual solo-training precautions apply: tell someone your plan, keep your phone on you, choose an outlet you're comfortable travelling to at that hour, and don't max out on a barbell without safety arms or a spotter.
Anytime Fitness City Hall, inside CityLink Mall directly under City Hall and Esplanade MRT, is the one usually named as Singapore's largest, at roughly 10,000 sqft, and the club promotes itself that way on its own channels. It is worth knowing that size buys you nothing on price: City Hall's published online rate card is identical to every other club's, at S$138, S$118 and S$108 a month by contract length plus the same S$190 of one-off fees. It does throw in a longer trial, a 5-day pass rather than the 1-day pass most clubs offer. Because every Anytime Fitness is separately franchised, floor space varies enormously across the 164 open Singapore clubs: a heartland shophouse unit can be a small fraction of the City Hall floorplate for the same monthly fee. If a big free-weights floor matters to you, the fairest comparison is across chains rather than within one, since 24/7 Fitness's Our Tampines Hub club is about 11,000 sqft, its Orchard flagship at Pacific Plaza about 10,000 sqft, and The Seletar Mall about 6,600 sqft. The practical advice is the same either way: visit at the hour you would actually train and count the racks and benches, because a large club at 7pm can still feel more crowded than a small one at midnight.
