My favourite gym to go to by far

My favourite gym to go to by far. Spacious and has all the right equipment. Bonus with the sauna. Taking off one star because the app doesn’t show how busy the gym is, like other gyms offer, which is a very handy feature for in particular busy people who wants to sneak in a gym session.

Hi, thanks for the review!

Glad to hear that you are enjoying the gym, keep up the great work 👍  
We do have plans to develop our app further in the future, but for now we're just using it to allow contactless entry for our members and it does that wonderfully well.

Cancellation procedure for “no contract membership” is non existent. Multi million pound company scamming customers like this is disgusting!!

Unprofessional (resolved)

Emailing now asking for availability of PT and not even getting a reply. I would understand if they would reply and say no one is available but no reply at all is just plain rude and unprofessional

The team got in touch after my review here which i really appreciate as it shows they are following up on their customers feedback. I will change it to 3 stars till i start hitting the Gym. Thanks again

There was no staff to be seen on my first visit and I had trouble with the QR code. It didn’t feel like a welcoming environment for that reason as there was no staff around to greet members.

Hello Stacey,
Thank you for reviewing JD Gyms.
We're really sorry that you didn't find anyone on hand to help. Our Managers or Personal Trainers could have been busy helping other people at the time. What we'll do is pass your feedback on to the gym Manager so that they can ensure their team is circulating the gym and making themselves available to members as much as possible.

If you are having issues with the QR code, please press the green buzzer button near the gates and someone will let you in and help resolve this issue!

Kind regards,
The JD Gyms Team 💚

At first glance it looks great but…

At first glance it looks great but there are several things stopping it from achieving a higher rating:

1. Lack of air con in the weights section - it can get very hot.

2. Lack of cable attachments (despite lots of cable machines).

3. For half of the cable machines there are no labels on the weight advising you of how much weight you have selected.

4. It is very messy! It's one of the most poorly cleaned gyms I've been too. Leftover water bottles and energy drinks are all over the weight section and weights are never replaced to where they should be (gym attendees should take the blame here but staff should enforce the policies and ensure that it is tidy).

Nevertheless it is a very spaced out gym with plenty of benches, cables, and racks. If the above is resolved it would be 5 out of 5.

Thanks for taking the time to leave this review.

We’re afraid it's true, our gyms are very popular and can become busy especially at peak times, but this does fluctuate at different times of the day and night. To make the most of the space where possible, though, we are always looking to expand and improve our facilities.

Thought I'd try JD gym

Thought I'd try JD gym. 1st time in was on a Sunday evening. Not too busy. But very very warm inside. I did notice that not 1 person put their weights away after use, Which was very frustrating. 2nd time in was on the Tuesday after. The amount of people in was crazy, couldn't get on most machines as young groups sitting, not training playing on phones. The heat inside was just too hot, you couldn't hold a bar without it slipping. Again weights were being left on machines and benches. Staff were great, clean and tidy. But I wont be renewing after this month.
