    Gym is ok but it is dirty and unhygienic. The staff no longer clean the workout platforms because it is expected that customers wipe after use each time. But now no one does especially evenings and weekends. I have met couple of other users who have complained of developing health complications due to uncleanliness. It’s sad no one seems to be taking notice of the issue. So I don’t use it much now.

    No air-conditioning in an sealed building after a while I was feeling dizzy not safe. People were breathing in other people's exhaled carbon dioxide very unsafe in a sealed building.

    Very good gym has lots of facility and a nice boxing area. Has all the dumbells needed and they are clearly labeled and it has all the machines needed. Very big gym and is widely spaced out and has very good bright lighting.

    Hayden Delbridge is a great personal trainer - he makes every session fun and puts in a lot of hard work to make sure you see the results that you want!! He has helped me gain confidence and taught me how to train properly (including using the weights that used to scare me). I have and will continue to recommend him to everyone! Also, all his classes are amazing

    Love this gym! Staff are amazing, equipment is great! Being a wheelchair user it's amazing to find somewhere so inclusive!

  • 4/5 Pinoy E. 1 year ago on Google
    Bang Tidy! Lots of parking spaces for a maximum of 3 hours stay. It's always nice and clean too. 4 stars only because the price keeps going up. They should give incentives to loyal members. Like free Yanga water for a month or something.

    I love this gym The classes are excellent The manager Dom Dalton is fantastic and her classes are amazing She is kind thoughtful empowering professional knowledgeable and very very inclusive I enjoy coming here and don’t feel intimidated There is a huge range of ages disabilities and cultures it is very inclusive, laid back but very efficient Every class I do with lots of different instructors are all friendly helpful and knowledgeable Today I did ‘Ladies who lift’ a new class to show and encourage women to weight lift, there were 6 in the class 2 instructors Michael and Chloe and they couldn’t do enough for us, explaining everything it was a brilliant experience

    I love it here! I regularly take classes which are always different, lively and everyone is so friendly. I have PT sessions with Dom ( the gym group manager) once a week. Since training with Dom I have gained more confidence around the gym with equipment etc, been pushed and am stronger each week. The main thing I love about Dom is she is very knowledgeable especially with the way females train and their bodies work. I feel this is so important and encourages me so much. Thank you to you all 😊

  • 5/5 Michelle M. 11 months ago on Google
    Great gym! Staff are always friendly, equipment is always available to use and is clean. Parking is never an issue. Chloe is my PT who I’ve been training with when I joined the gym just over a year ago! She makes the sessions fun but challenges me and pushes me! She is also on it with my nutrition. I’m the strongest and fittest I’ve been in my life! Thanks Chloe!

  • 5/5 Gemma J. 11 months ago on Google
    Staff at the Gym are lovely. The range of classes is great and the gym is always clean and tidy and well maintained. Special mentions to Dom, Mike and Mani who run really great classes and are always happy to help you outside of class time too.

  • 5/5 Mark L. 11 months ago on Google
    Absolutely excellent gym, I've recently started coming here,as I used to go to Total Fitness which over time started to become a bit too expensive, and I was getting fed up of only being able to use the pool if you book, which I thought was silly. The gym is a totally different experience all together, the app is brilliant! You can log on and see how many people are in the gym at any time; the staff are really helpful, I can always get on the equipment, and the best thing.....no kids! Bliss! 😍

  • 5/5 Hasina A. 11 months ago on Google
    I have been using this gym for about 2 years now and have been very happy here. The facilities are well maintained and always clean. The staff are friendly, helpful and always on hand to resolve any issues. I particularly enjoy the classes, prehab and re-balance- Dom and Almir are brilliant instructors who are very knowledgeable and attentive, always ensuring everyone gets the best out of the class. Dom, who is the manger, is an asset to the gym. You can see that she really cares about the members and works hard to maintain the gym’s high standards. Would definitely recommend. Also a special mention to Chloe who is absolutely amazing!!!

  • 5/5 Clare M. 9 months ago on Google
    Since joining the gym I feel so much better, I have had PT sessions once a week with Mani Nazeri, he is really encouraging, sets realistic goals and makes you feel comfortable in what can occasionally feel a masculine environment. If your thinking of getting back into fitness or just starting, I would recommend Mani to give you the skills/knowledge on how to achieve your goals and help to build your confidence in order to stick at it.

  • 5/5 Chantana S. 11 months ago on Google
    I've been coming to The Gym in Altrincham since the day it opened. It has just got better and better. Classes are great. The gym is clean. All of the instructors are friendly, helpful and great at what they do. Special mention for the manager Dom Dalton who is doing a fantastic job.

  • 5/5 Jill C. 11 months ago on Google
    Great gym - especially can’t recommend PT Chloe enough! Great sessions - she really motivates you and pushes you to do your best. She’s brilliant doing the classes too, especially Rumble.

  • 5/5 WJH F. 4 months ago on Google
    I never wanted to visit in peak hours. I visited yesterday at 7 pm. I loved it. It was very motivating. You witness how hardworking other members are and inspire you to work out, too.

  • 4/5 Seán 7 months ago on Google
    Moved to this gym after the one I was at became unusable due to it being so busy. Happy with the decision, great kit, friendly atmosphere and the app is easy enough to use. Fantastic price all things considered, just wish there was a sauna. Would gladly pay more if one were to be installed.

  • 5/5 Hands of Buddha Ltd, Sale Trafford, U. 4 months ago on Google
    The gym very clean, the staffs very nice and professionals. If you bore with your own work around the gym , you can join in with the classes and make the friends with the new people in the class. If you think you don’t work hard enough on your own , you can have a PT push you too ☺️

  • 4/5 danielle b. 4 months ago on Google
    Good music, decent classes, good app and timetable. Would be 5 stars if they got some different clips for the weights, didn't charge for the body analyser and found a way to get rid of the sweat smell (last one is a tough ask!)

  • 5/5 Kev W. 4 months ago on Google
    I've used a number of the Gym Groups facilities as I travel a little with work and this one I have to rank up there with the best of them. Clean, great atmosphere, plenty of parking.. but over and above all of that.. I have started using at pt from this gym - initially for some 1:1 boxing and additionly he is now helping me with my weight training technique. He's not only a great motivator, gives clear instruction and guidance - but fun to work with and even after all the years I've (tried to) lift weights, he's improved my technique, corrected lots of bad habits and set me a new program. Oh and the boxing is tough - but sooo good.!! . Cannot speak highly enough of this guy - so a huge shout out to ALEX GRANDAGE.. top trainer!

  • 5/5 Miriam G. 4 months ago on Google
    I have only recently started going to The Gym Group, Atlantic Street, Altrincham. I saw an application form/questionaire from a Personal Trainer there, completed it and received an invitation for a one to one meeting. The Personal Trainer is Alex Grandage who I have found to be very approachable/pleasant/professional. I am 77 years of age and have been made to feel very welcome, not only by Alex but his colleagues and other members, which creates a pleasant atmosphere.

  • 5/5 Mark L. 4 months ago on Google
    Edit: now 4 months in and still the same 😎 Been a member here for 2 months now and seems a really great place. Lots of classes, equipment is usually always available even at busy times and there's no one filming themselves posing/instagram/other social media. There's a few PT's/staff to ask questions of and all seem very friendly. So far so good.

  • 5/5 Akin . A. 4 months ago on Google
    Does what it says on the tin. Very decent equipment range and a very user-friendly layout. The atmosphere is vibrant, and I find the staff / instructors extremely helpful and easily approachable

  • 5/5 Gul 9. 5 months ago on Google
    Very friendly and welcoming staff, comfortable environment, clean and well maintained facilities and equipments. Definitely recommend this Gym. Excellent classes from all PTs especially Mani Nazeri's : his classes are really worth attending, he is always a motivating, kind and helpful PT.

  • 4/5 Haleema H. 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic gym! The only recommendation is the showers are super hot and you can’t change the setting which is annoying

  • 5/5 Sam Harry E. 2 years ago on Google
    As an member of this one at Altrincham and the one at Deansgate , I can’t fault both gyms. Staff are really friendly and the equipment is excellent. Possibly the best Gym in Sale and Altrincham. I really like the members challenges and the sample events.

  • 4/5 Kelvyn C. 2 years ago on Google
    Joined the Altrincham gym recently after previously having been a member of the Manchester City Centre gym. The gym overall is good, clean and tidy and not over busy. Some of the treadmills need replacing / dated and I wish increasing speed wasn't restricted to 1mph at a time as very annoying when trying to do HIIT speed training. I typically go later in the evening around 8pm or later and even at this time it is a relatively busy gym. That being said there is usually no to low wait for equipment. Which I feel is the norm at all hours for this gym. The gym I think needs more cleaning stations available and The nice section of this gym with fancy lighting I wish was lit up later at night even if normal lighting, especially as recently they added boxing and additional bikes to that zone it's not great doing in the dark/low lighting. Overall a good no thrills gym that gets the job done.

  • 5/5 Mark B. 2 years ago on Google
    Good classes, plenty of equipment, clean and tidy. Good value for money.

  • 5/5 Ashley W. 2 years ago on Google
    Wide range of machines and classes. Would love a Pilates class there.

  • 5/5 David M. 2 years ago on Google
    Spacious clean and great kit as well as parking showers are clean lockers are safe all you could hope for

  • 5/5 Neil F. 2 years ago on Google
    This is the best gym I've been a member of. The staff are great, the equipment is spot on, and the adaptations they have made around COVID are excellent. Would highly recommend to anyone.

  • 5/5 Murtaza u. 2 years ago on Google
    Decent facilities. Happy to find day pass. No sneaky memberships

  • 5/5 Karim A. 2 years ago on Google
    A prefect spacious gym with lots of equipment. The 24/7 availability is an amazing edge too.

  • 3/5 Michael L. 2 years ago on Google
    I’m not sure why this gym closes for a few days at a time every so often, especially after all the internal building work. It also closes Christmas day and Boxing Day. It's really hard to pick up training after days off and some people like to keep a routine, even over the festive period.

  • 5/5 Kal 2 years ago on Google
    It was a little confusing the first time I went as there was no staff around, but other than that it has been great. The equipment is clean and there is a cleaner who is constantly cleaning. It really makes you safe. It has never been too busy when I have been and I have always been able to work out. I met a member of staff called Lawrence and he was amazing. He offered some great advice and was so kind and helpful. His willingness to help the customer is to be applauded and congratulated. A true ambassador for the company. Thanks very much for making the gym a place to go.

  • 4/5 Manoj P. 1 year ago on Google
    Affordable and clean, with most gym facilities. Not too crowded during peak hours and availability of classes is very convenient. Close to local pubs and fast food joints to gain your lost calories 😂

  • 1/5 P C. 1 year ago on Google
    5 of 6 boxing bags are broken for over 4 months. Reported this many times, no one cares, nothing is done. very poor service why did you reply about gym being busy? just fix the broken bags please I did this review only because nobody act to fix faulty eqipment as it was reported multiple times

  • 4/5 M1G_52 3 years ago on Google
    Good to keep going to the Gym , Altrincham. Easy to access and use and still managing to do most of routines. Bright , clean and cheerful inside.

  • 5/5 rob s. 1 year ago on Google
    Good Value for money gym. Good selection of classes. Clean and well maintained. Open 24/7.

  • 4/5 Tunnelliner. 4. 2 years ago on Google
    It's been 2 years since I have been in the Altrincham Gym. It's handy to get to, big space plenty of room & easy parking. The parking is a major plus for me.

  • 5/5 Daniel 1 year ago on Google
    The best gym in Altrincham. Clean, nice staff, really well lit and up to date looking.

  • 4/5 Phil I. 1 year ago on Google
    Been a member for a couple of years now The gym overall is very good and reasonable priced The only thing I consider that lets it down is the lockers in the changing room There are far too many not working or missing doors I visit on my way to work so have my gym & work bag so really need one of the big lockers but out of 20 there is probably 10 either broke, damaged or door missing Getting to the stage where I'm considering moving gyms because of this I am pleased to say that the gym listened and resolved the issues with the lockers Thanks guys :)

  • 5/5 Norah O. 1 year ago on Google
    Went to the re-balance class today with ‘Dom’ she was great:) Felt really good/stretched after the session. I definitely will be going again to this class:) Brilliant gym, welcoming & very clean….great staff all round. 5 stars!

  • 5/5 Jay S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great gym. Lots of equipment, lots of parking, well maintained and open 24/7.

  • 1/5 mike l. 1 year ago on Google
    Air conditioning appears to be turned off and I can no longer do my cardio there. Some of the bikes make clunky sounds now and the seated calf equipment has been out of order for ages. A pity because I went to this gym daily since opening. Now I just use it for short weights sessions a couple of times a week because of the temperature and lack of adequate ventilation. Maybe they can get some windows installed if they aren’t going to use air conditioning any more. I don’t know how long I’ll carry on using this gym, but I’ll give it a little longer.

  • 1/5 Momo F. 1 year ago on Google
    We were transferred from the gym group in old trafford. They told us we can use the same code but it didnt work. But the worse thing was that there was absolutely no staff member on site to let us in and let us out. The worst gym group gym in Manchester.

  • 5/5 hiba y. 1 year ago on Google
    Great gym. Easy spacious parking, plenty of classes included in membership and plenty of equipments. It has a nice happy vibe to it too. I have been member for at least 3 years, can't fault it.
