Our responsibility - Your safety

Dear Club Members and Guests,

Here we will post safety information about Holmes Place clubs.

At the moment, there is no detailed regulation that defines the rules on which the fitness industry will be able to operate, apart from the information that there may be 1 person per 15 square meters in the club, i.e. the maximum occupancy may be:

Holmes Place Hilton: 233 people

Holmes Place OVO: 90 people

Holmes Place Skoroszze: 93 people

Other rules for using the clubs remain unchanged, provided that they are not changed by the regulation.

In Holmes Place clubs, it is required that Club Members and hotel guests wear masks in common areas, i.e. the reception area, cloakroom. It is not necessary to wear masks during training.

We constantly make sure that the appropriate number of people stay in the club at the same time, i.e. no more than 1 person per 15 square meters of the club area.
