I have been using this gym for the last three years and is just getting worst. Right now the female showers can't be used as the drains are blocked. Who wants to have their feet sumerged in dirty water and get some fungal problem? Not me. Well, this has been the situation for a week. Then there are the "normal" problems that the management does not invest back into the facilities: there are broken handles, missing handles, loose fixings, damp on the ceeling, water is too hot in the showers and they seem uncapable of lowering the temperature say goodbye to beautiful hair with frequent showers in this gym, the cleaner just sprays water with a hose on the showers instead of properly cleaning them and then there is the cleaning room supplies that has a door that the cleaner leaves open very often regardless of the fact that if the men's changing rooms door side is opened by their cleaner, well, or you have a good view of the men's changing room or pray you are not naked and men are looking at you "accidentally". In the women's changing room there is a loo that has been broken for like forever, leaving only three loos...yes. then there is other loo that can't really flush because no one has bother to fix thr valve tha leaks water all the time since I joined this gym. According to the management, it is still a functional loo. And there is the hair dryer that is not working, how difficult is to replace a broken dryer? How expensive? Seems too difficult to maintain the facilities regardless of the numerous members they have. Where is the mony going. To add to this, the pool is not working, will be available until January. Is it because we members are not expected to come on December?
This gym has been part of my daily routine for 3 years now and, I can't stay without it. It's a very friendly place, from trainers to costumers - never felt judged or uncomfortable. During classes my favourite ones are at lunchtime with Brenda and Aga, we suffer and struggle together but also, have a lot of fun. In this way, it's much easier keeping on fit or just moving. But the most valuable thing is that you can improve a lot your technique: since classes are not very crowded, most of the trainers are very keen to teach you how to make exercises correctly.
First time I've bought a proper gym membership and so far extremely happy with the decision to become a member at Energybase. £240 for an annual membership student is a great deal - includes classes, access to pool etc. Staff always extremely friendly and happy to help if you have any questions. Generally go to the gym during the day, in-between lectures etc and have never had to wait for a machine / weights. Can get busier in the evening around 6ish. Pool is a huge plus - plenty of lanes for different speeds. Great range of weight machines and treadmills, bikes, rowing machines etc. Classes I've been to have been great. Only negative - shame about the changing rooms. The toilets and showers are a little bit grim... other than that would highly recommend.
Can definitely recommend the place! 1.Great for a swim workout due to its length. The pool is almost never busy so it's perfect for my triathlon training. 2.The staff is always friendly and helpful, happy to help and even show you some great exercises if you ask nicely:: 3.The classes all included in the price of the membership are smashing of course only if you like to be pushed to the limits. One of, if not the best place in Central London to have your daily portion of exercise!
I only use the pool so I can’t speak for the gym, but I really enjoy using the pool here. It’s a satisfying length at 33m, is always clean and never overcrowded when I come usually after work on weekdays about 5pm, and Saturday morning before 10am. The water is a nice, comfortably warm temperature. The changing rooms are roomy, have plenty of lockers, good hairdryers, decent showers hot and cold and they are generally very clean - more so if you arrive early. All the staff I’ve encountered have been friendly and helpful. It’s a lovely place to unwind after work.
Well my year's subscription at Energybase is up... and I couldn't be more glad. The gym is cramped and pretty poorly equipped. One crappy squat rack, one bench press station, one pullup bar. Most of the dumbbells' weight labels have come off so you have to waste time trying to figure out what weight they are A problem that was not addressed throughout the entire year. The changing rooms, showers and toilets were sometimes a bit gross. However, the worst part of Energybase And the reason I felt compelled to write this review is the customer service. Almost all of the receptionists Except for one brown-haired girl were extremely unfriendly. Some of them were actually very rude. I see from other people's reviews that I'm not the only person to have felt this way. If it's a problem that management has known about for a while then why has nothing been done about it? The swimming pool is decent but on a whole, I definitely would not recommend this gym.
Good pool and good range of gym equipment. There are issues with the pool resulting in closures but this is understandable considering its age. The staff on duty are usually friendly. Suggestions for improvement: * Lower temperature in Gym, improve ventilation * Put up flags in pool during lane swimming * Alternate clockwise and anti-clockwise lanes for safety reasons * Ask lifeguards to tactfully direct slow swimmers especially head up breaststrokers from the fast lane into the slower lanes to prevent dangerous situations where other swimmers are having to overtake them and risking contact with oncoming swimmers - there is actually a note on the "Fast Lane" board but it's never enforced.
Was looking for a new gym to attend during my lunch break as evenings get too busy at my normal gym. Decided to get a day pass to try this out. Being a student, the prices seem reasonable enough. The location is also pretty good as it is within range of the student area and close to my university. Staff themselves seemed quite helpful and explained how things work and what they had on offer. The swimming pool seems like a great bonus. If you are into weight training however, this is not the gym for you. The weights area is tiny, without even a full squat rack. The closest is either a Smith machine, or a quasi squat rack which is really better designed for benching as it is not a full rack. Even on a lunch time the weights section got packed pretty quickly. There is maybe 4 benches in the full gym, so even though there wasn't that many people, it was saturated to capacity. I can't comment on the evenings, but I assume its a nightmare. I felt like I was stepping on people's toes just to get around. The equipment is old and worn out. Some of the dumbells are that worn you can't actually see what weight you are picking up! There seems to be quite a few cardio machines, so if you're into that kind of stuff then maybe it could be a better experience. Overall I just feel that for my purposes, the gym is inadequate. It's probably the smallest weights section I've ever been in - which is very disappointing as the area and staff are great. If you do manage to fit in the area, you'll be waiting ages for a spot even if its not that busy.
This gym is a Gem. Right in the heart of London you can get the best price and the best workout. Without a doubt the Olympic size swimming pool would be enough to get you in, but the many available classes and various coaches that regularly teach are the best deal! You can get into whatever excersize routine ou like, from Yoga to Zumba, from kickboxing to Spinning all included into your fee. The gym is of a nice size and the workout area offers everything you need, just don’t be the guy that works out with a mobile phone, take the advantages of the gym and the bundle price and explore all the many classes available. We love this place !!!
The staff for the most part are friendly, however one female member of staff on two occasions has belittled me and made me feel uncomfortable. She has also been extremely inattentive lifeguard I have been swimming and she’s had her back to the pool on more than one occasion for long periods of time supposedly teaching another lifeguard. I feel this is extremely inappropriate as a lifeguard and a member of staff we as customers are supposed to trust
