Fitness24Seven Happyland
Location and direction to the gym
Happyland branch was newest branch of Fitness24Seven in Thailand as of November 2023. It was opened on 2022 in Bang Kapi area, a bit far from the city center and more on local area. Nearest train station is MRT Yellow line Bang Kapi station, where it is connected by sky bridge to Happyland mall.
When you are visiting by train please use sky bridge below to N Mark building 2nd floor first then pass connecting way to Happyland mall. This time, I came to this area by walk from Ramkhamheng road by bus.
Connecting bridge from MRT yellow line.
In front of N mark building, you can find The Mall Bang Kapi, landmark shopping mall in this area which offers various dining option, shopping department, cinema and attraction pool.
Gourmet market in Mall Bang Kapi offers wide variety of local and international food.
You may also Lotus’s shopping mall for cheaper grocery.

Here comes Fitness24Seven Happyland branch. So far, I visited 4 benches of Fitness24Seven. People Park, Phahon Yothin, Nana and this one. Onnut is quite bigger and more equipment while other 3 has almost same size and same machines. So I would say, Happyland branch is standard sized gym of this brand.
Out of mall hours, you can climb up outside stairs from this side drectly to the gym.
Noticed Seven Eleven there also 24 hours at ground floor.
Gym merchandise on sale.
No staff at entrance, maybe all out for lunch, 55.

When you have a chance, please try to visit and sweat here in the gym!
