  • 4/5 Sara Mahdavi H. 2 years ago on Google • 8 reviews
    It is a nice gym but: - can be extremely busy and loud due to boxing classes. - you have to wait around for racks and lifting equipment sometimes. - once in the middle of my workout I was asked by a personal trainer to move from that area because his students needed to use the wall behind me! In fact I was using the wall and that was the exact reason why I was there. He was polite, but regardless I thought it was ridiculous as I'm as much entitled to use the environment as the other clients!

    Super small basement gym with no windows… weird vibe and inattentive, rude customer service. Definitely not nearly as good as gyms in the US for the price… it’s OK if you’re in Amsterdam and don’t have any other options for a basic workout

    1) the gym does not have even 1 window so inside is too dark, but thats personal opinion 2) I cancel my subscription few days before the month end, and they renew it eitherway saying that in the contract was mentioned that u have to cancel at least one month in advance. As always, customer support in the netherland is the worst ever, usually "the client is always right", but here, looks like "i dont care, you signed you pay bye"..thats not how usually good companies treat customers, you could have reach some sort of agreement saying like "we will refund you partially, etc", meanwhile as always, dutch customer service sucks!

    Small gym but it was perfect .. you can find everything. If you are travel for vacation in Amsterdam And you want to join crossfit classes I will recommend you to make registration online and book the class 1 week before class . Because the system in classes opened before 1 week and its hard to find spot in 1 day of 2 days before classes! Btw the website is Dutch language not English !

  • 4/5 Janis Tunde A. 1 year ago on Google • 88 reviews
    Cool gym with friendly people and staff. The only down sides are that you need to be very fast for booking classes as they are booked out very fast (would be great to have a 12h cancellation policy). Also, the shower/toilet’s could be a bit cleaner.

    The gym is smaller than what I have expected but the equipments seems complete nonetheless, at least for CrossFitters :). I emailed them to ask for a drop-in for Open Gym and they replied pretty quick (they also told us about of the „quiet time“, which is between 11AM-16PM). We‘re def gonna come back here during our next visit to Amsterdam 👍🏼

    Good equipment, good coaches & clean, Minuses: almost impossible to book a time slot, and people who book it out often don't come. The music is always the same hip hop tracks, which I personally don't enjoy. Expensive.

    One of the best gyms in Europe that I’ve been to. Great classes, setup, and staff. Highly recommend signing up if you’re staying in Amsterdam for a few weeks.

  • 3/5 ege k. 4 years ago on Google
    Gonna make an honest review, you should signup only if you are into boxing or crossfit. not for weightlifters pros: - great instructors - quality gear/tools - lovely playlist (old school rap) - perfect for crossfit - booking system is easy cons: - insanely crowded after 7pm -there are 5 racks and you have to wait for other people to finish their workout (most people switch from squats to deadlifts/bench press/ohp etc.) -no separate bench press/incline press, you have to adjust the rack/ wait in line etc. - there is always box training right next to yoga studio, some people yell when you try to be present during yoga:) -kinda expensive

    The best gym I've ever trained at! New gym in the former club "Trouw". The trainers have their schedules on point and are commited to help you achieve your goals.

    I’ve had a gym membership of some kind over 10 years across 3 continents and 4 cities and this is the best gym I’ve ever been to—no place I’ve ever been to beats Vondelgym’s combination of quality—amazing instructors and classes—with price. To boot their opening hours are extremely generous! I would happily leave them a 20 euro tip every month just cause they’re so good.

    I've been going to this gym for a few months now and have really been enjoying it. The membership includes a personal fitness plan as well as access to all of the classes they give there. The people there are friendly and I've gotten many great tips to improve my lifting. Definitely a great deal if you go a few times a week as well as take some of the classes they provide.

  • 5/5 Isabella Otterbeck F. 4 years ago on Google • 8 reviews
    Love the atmosphere, the music, and the overall feel of the gym. Have been a member for a couple months now and wouldn't regret it. I usually workout on my own but occasionally take a class. Either way, the gym works well and I reccommend.

  • 5/5 Marwan R. 1 year ago on Google
    Ive been a member of VondeGym for almost a year. It is a great community and give athletes the ability to train in their own. Evenings are a bit busy but the best combination of functional fitness and a great location in Amsterdam.

  • 2/5 Seth van der M. 1 year ago on Google
    Equipment is ok, space is a bit cramped and can get busy but if the same repetitive music they play isn’t your taste this place is quickly unbearable

  • 5/5 Dries D. 4 years ago on Google

    Great gym so far. Not cheap, but given the location and everything that’s included, its an okay price.

  • 5/5 Mathias C. 4 years ago on Google
    Great coaches, nice facilities

  • 4/5 O H. 4 years ago on Google
    I have been a member since September 2019 and this is the only real gym choice in Amsterdam (compared to my former homes in Madrid and London there is really not much choice here). The gym is designed around crossfit and is therefore primarily freeweights but there's the usual machines (lat pulldown, cable etc). Crowding wise I switched from an anytime to offpeak membership as I found peak/anytime on weekends unpleasant, where finding an empty bench was unlikely. I always attend between 10 and 4 on weekdays and it's nearly empty so I can't personally complain. The classes also look excellent but I've never personally tried them.

  • 5/5 Michael R. 4 years ago on Google
    Can it get any better than this gym? I don’t think so! Best classes, coaches and atmosphere to train in Amsterdam and possibly Europe!

  • 5/5 Helen A. 6 years ago on Google
    Best gym in Amsterdam! All the equipment you need ranging from ski erg, rowing to assault bikes to amazing classes by amazing trainers. Only thing is it’s a bit too small, not enough space for free workouts

  • 5/5 Libi B. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) With great pleasure the childcare at Vondelgym Oost has been given a new look. Great idea from Vondelgym to offer a children's area so that parents of young children can also make time for sports.

Geweldig idee van Vondelgym om een kinderruimte aan te bieden zodat ouders van jonge kinderen ook tijd kunnen maken voor sport.

  • 5/5 Mister C. 2 years ago on Google
    My gym for over 4 years now. Great offering in guided training, from yoga to bag training and from mobility to crossfit. Trainers are high profile, many are leading in their field. Think of world Champs Muay Thai, crossfit etc. Absolutely great value for money.

  • 1/5 Aleksei T. 8 months ago on Google • 1 review
    After cancelling the subscription, they will charge you for one more month (to be precise, for one more period, which is 4 weeks). Obviously they don't explain that when you sign in plain english, but they probably buried that somewhere in the contract.

😠 Unfortunate to see my favourite gym constantly in disrepair. Often taking weeks to months before simple issues are fixed. Cleanliness is also not as it used to be - WCs become disgusting later in the day. Calling customer support wasn’t helpful so I thought I’d post my complaints here.
