Anytime Fitness Toshimaen Review｜Stylish Lighting, and a Walk Home

hirty seconds on foot from Toshimaen Station.

The gym sits on the second floor of a building directly beside the station — as close to step-off-and-walk-in as it gets.

A single open floor with three Smith machines, two adjustable benches, and a full set of standard equipment. No stretching area, but the lighting gives the interior a polished feel that lifts the mood for training. The gym was uncrowded on a weekday, allowing a relaxed pace throughout. After the session, a short walk through Nerima revealed a neighborhood that blends suburban calm with just enough urban convenience to feel comfortable.

Not every gym needs to be Pilgrimage Class to be worth visiting. This one makes that case quietly.

Facilities

Private showers, a private changing room, Wi-Fi, a body composition scale, and a personal trainer are all available. An AED, contracted lockers with availability, and free access for high school students round out the offering.

There is no water server, no bicycle parking, and no car parking. There’s also no stretching area. The gym occupies a single floor on the second level of its building, with a layout that feels similar in atmosphere to the Musashisakai location.

Access

A 1-minute walk from Toshimaen Station. Stepping out of the station, the gym is right there, making it an easy and convenient place to reach.

Atmosphere and Equipment

The single-floor gym is equipped with three Smith machines and two adjustable benches. The selection isn’t extensive, but it covers the essentials well enough that training never feels limited. The absence of a stretching area, though, is a slight letdown.

Visiting on a weekday meant the gym was quiet, allowing plenty of room to move at an easy pace. The lighting gives the space a stylish, considered feel, with a calm atmosphere reminiscent of the Musashisakai location.

Crowding

A weekday visit found the gym quiet, with no competition for machines.

Surrounding Area

True to its name, Toshimaen still carries traces of the amusement park that once stood here. Walking through Nerima on the way home from the gym revealed a town where the greenery of the countryside and the bustle of the city blend together in just the right balance. It made for a pleasant, unhurried stroll.

Overall Review

The machine selection here isn’t extensive, but what’s available covers the basics, and the lighting brings a stylish, intentional feel to the space. The lack of a stretching area is a minor drawback, but on a quiet weekday, the gym is easy to use.

The station is 30 seconds away. Step out of the gate and it is there.

Access is faultless. It falls short of Pilgrimage Class, but as a gym for everyday use it leaves nothing to complain about. Getting here from home is a bit of a haul, yet the walk back through Nerima made the trip worthwhile.

A district where the rural and the urban mix in comfortable proportion. A good Anytime, sitting at the end of a street like that.

The pilgrimage continues.
