One Playground Merrylands: A Brand New Fitness and Wellness Destination Has Arrived in Western Sydney
By One Playground
One Playground Merrylands
We are thrilled to announce that One Playground Merrylands is officially open. This epic new facility is here to revolutionise the Western Sydney fitness scene with a brand new health and wellness destination.
Experience the elegance of a high-end hotel fused with the cutting-edge amenities of a wellness centre, boutique studios, and best-in-class equipment sourced from around the globe. This isn’t just a gym – it’s a complete wellness experience that elevates your fitness journey to a whole new level.
A Design Beyond the Ordinary
The design transports you away to another time or place, taking inspiration from the luxury of Dubai or Morocco in this internationally inspired design.
The Concept – “The Mirage”
Each One Playground facility is unique, and the concept for ‘The Mirage’ is to inspire a new and elevated vision for your fitness and wellness journey. Just like a mirage appears as a captivating image in the distance that you cannot wait to reach, this One Playground experience has been designed to inspire members to set ambitious goals and reach a level of health, fitness and wellness they never thought was possible. The exceptional architectural features of the Mason and Main development are highlighted, with the soaring 5.5-metre ceilings and elegant arched windows brought to life with a design that is out of this world.
You are met with a sophisticated lobby with terracotta render wall finishes, elevated with natural stone, micro cement floors and custom lighting. As you peer through the arched breezeblock gateway, you can see a custom pink marble drinking fountain that sits inside the wellness lounge. This amazing design continues from room to room, with surprising and beautiful elements found throughout.
We wanted to create something special and memorable. A truly immersive experience that allows you to disconnect from your time at work or home and step into a space that is dedicated to achieving a better version of yourself.
Endless Experiences
One Playground Merrylands is more than just a gym, it’s a complete fitness and wellness destination that provides every experience to help you achieve your goals.
Spanning two floors and covering 3000 sqm, this is One Playground’s largest facility to date, and truly offers members all their needs in one place, with one membership. The oversized facility has 6 group training studio concepts, 2 semi-private studios, private recovery suites, saunas and a 1,500 square metre weights and cardio zone.
Read below to get a better understanding of each of our spaces.
And Endless Equipment
The gym floor is a fitness haven, equipped with over 100 cutting-edge machines, including premium Technogym cardio equipment and bespoke Gym80 gear. With 11 squat racks, 24 benches, 4 leg press machines, 4 precision-engineered lat pull-downs, and 3 dedicated seated rows, it is designed to meet a wide range of workout needs. Additionally, the gym offers a full set of Watson dumbbells, engraved with the One Playground logo, providing a premium touch to your training experience.
We are delighted to unveil the Comfort Zone, a dedicated weights area thoughtfully designed for those who appreciate a more tranquil and relaxed environment. This intimate space offers all the essential equipment found on the main gym floor, but in a private environment, perfectly suited for those who prefer lighter weights and a calm, low-energy atmosphere.
