    Fantastic gym but full of kids at the busiest time. Limited to what you can use due to kids in puffer coats trying to exercise . Superb place when not at peak times. Maybe there should be a limit for the amount of people. Over 200 people at my last visit. Still a great gym but having groups of young kids waiting to use the equipment isn't great. Time limited

    To update: I had already reported similar issues via Twitter DMs and also via the PureGym app prior to cancelling. Nice large space, good selection of equipment though not a fan of the current layout as some equipment such as rowing machines being right next to the door make you feel a little bit on view. Also the isotonic drinks dispenser for their premium members has ran out on my last 3 visits and you get odd tasting water instead. I chose to cancel my membership after this session after as the gym has been freling increasingly less safe. These are unstaffed after a certain time and seem to attract groups of young men who seem to have to make a lot of phone calls to friends before getting a code to enter or have to mess about with the entrance pods in order to get in and out. On leaving 3 young men tried first to cram two people in to a pod and eventually forced the doors on one of the sides in order to leave. The same groups are often stood around the equipment I would like to use, often in outdoor wear (working out in boots and jackets) and are too busy showing each other videos and music to actually work out. It does not create a nice environment. On two consecutive visits I've seen female members, who i presume were alone, choose to workout on the cross trainer next to me instead of any of the other dozen empty ones possibly to avoid looking like they were alone and then leave almost straight after. This one seems to have a lot of the gear nobody wants to use but only one of anything that people do want to use meaning when there are groups stood around this on their phones then you can't have a productive workout.

    Facilities are good, has everything you need and some specialist equipment. Location is ideal and good value for money. Sadly it’s let down by the people it attracts. Nobody in this gym has any respect for the equipment. Expect to see all the weight trees empty and the disks scattered across the floor. Expect to never see a pair of dumbbells together. Expect to never see a bench wiped down. Expect to never see people put away their weights after they’re finished. Expect to be walking around for some time trying to find an elusive 1.25kg plate for your progressive overload. The Staff are great and they often do their best to put stuff back to where it’s supposed to be. But when you have people loading 200kg onto a decline leg press and walk off, it’s very much a losing battle. Also wouldn’t recommend anyone trains between 1700 - 1900. It’s proximity to the local college and low cost means it’s also flooded by the ‘cheeky-Nando’ and ‘meet me at McDonald’s’ kind of clientele. You know the ones I mean. So if you do arrive and see a giant strawberry smelling vape cloud over the gym, leave it for an hour or so. Trust me.

    Classes are amazing. So motivating and I love the instructor variation, always an unpredictable workout but always a great workout. Every Fitness Team member is a credit to Pure Halifax. I have seen very positive body changes in myself since attending the weekly Fitness classes.

    Shame they close the locker rooms at night but accessible shower was clean and available. Equipment is modern, clean and in good working order. Plenty of free weights, can be busy at peak times but overall a good gym with free parking (up to 2 hrs)

    Social distancing in place. Well equipped to clean down contact surfaces. Friendly helpful staff. Good quality and quantity of weights and exercise equipment. Plenty of classes available too.

    Good. I think... Great facilities ; made gainz. However i can't provide further detail as unless Joey swole , hand on my shoulder , whispers ' i GOT you bro ' then im not looking at a damn thing other than the floor tile under my feet or the giant air con pipes up at the ceiling.

    Some machines (like seated leg curl) seem quite uneven and need leveling. New lights need shades as they are way too bright giving people headaches. Staff is very helpful and always friendly though. Without the roof leaking, it’s an good gym considering the price.

  • 3/5 yassar a. 9 months ago on Google
    Cheap gym. Equipment needs upgrading. Also staff need to have a word with some of the members about putting their weights back. Some the lads need their mums to come along and clean up after them.

  • 5/5 Calum M. 7 months ago on Google
    Great place. Friendly staff who are always happy to help. Very reasonable price and the spin classes are good too! 😆🚴

  • 2/5 Reece T. 8 months ago on Google
    Alot of the equipment is broken, it's a small gym that charges more than larger puregyms but advertises "free parking for 2 hours" and the price difference being the price of 2 hours parking. Not enough space, everything is crammed in.

  • 5/5 Alaisdair M. 9 months ago on Google
    After a break of a couple of months it is great to get back to the gym, what was even more great was that it was like I had never been away with a friendly welcome back from team members who had been there previously. Classes are great, and the equipment always spot on. Would definitely recommend

    Love working out in this gym been here for years 💪started back at gym today after having my youngest son Jack.

  • 1/5 Yewande A. 6 months ago on Google
    I wish I could give them zero star rating, this company is a cheat honestly speaking. They sign me up for 12 month contracts without my knowledge, I went in to complain to manger and she promised to raise a complaint on my behalf but unfortunately no one calls me back. I couldn’t go to gym cos my working hour changed but I have to continue paying for the service I didn’t use. The customer service is the worst ever experienced. Pure gym Halifax customer service is extremely poor and I regret ever going to that gym. Please be careful and make sure you ask questions because they will sign you up for contract without your knowledge.

    Great little gym, but not always clean. Girls toilets look like they’ve been plastered most days, and the smell of BO hits when you walk in, always really musty and heavy. Could do with recirculating some of that! Beyond this a good crowd and enough kit to work out :)

  • 3/5 Luke A. 1 year ago on Google
    Decent gym, cheapest 24/7 around but a few of the machines need some work. Shame you can't get a shower after midnight. Either way decent variety and well temperature controlled.

  • 3/5 Craig R. 1 year ago on Google
    Alright for cheap monthly subscription but alot of equipment needs updating, repairing or replacing... Cables threading, equipment rocking about while your using it. Definitely needs some TLC

  • 5/5 Angela B. 1 year ago on Google
    Great gym, good quality equipment, regular cleaning and friendly staff always around. Can't fault it especially as it's relatively cheap membership that includes free classes. PureGym membership means you can also use gyms in other towns around UK when you're traveling

  • 5/5 Stephen P. 1 year ago on Google
    Ideal if you have a job that enables you to come in at the quieter times. There is always plenty of equipment available to use whenever I have been there. Equipment is always clean and quickly repaired if a fault develops.

  • 4/5 Jemma N. 1 year ago on Google
    Puregym was probably one of the greatest decisions I made, had a fantastic group of people help me and then after almost a year I gave in and stopped going. Weight is slowly creeping on and I reckon going back to puregym would help.. although because I gave up, I feel like I've failed and feel embarrassed about rejoining!

    Always found the instructors helpful, its very central with 2 hours free parking in the attached multi story and clean. Classes are plentiful. Can be very busy at peak times.

  • 5/5 Jayne C. 1 year ago on Google
    Brilliant gym really friendly & gets lots of good encouragement from all the trainers .which helps tremendously with confidence & helps me reach my goals.

  • 4/5 Ashish K. 1 year ago on Google
    Spacious and well equipped. Best place in Halifax to workout at affordable prices. Sometimes the machine repair takes some time. Can be improvements there.

  • 5/5 Kamran Y. 1 year ago on Google
    Good large clean gym . Good amount of equipment and maintainted well , so you don't get equipment out for ages . 24 hours makes it very convenient for me , as I work varying hours. Plus side also allows me to come twice a day , one for my workout and sometimes I will come back for a cardio session in the evening . The vending machines are pricey , could be a bit more competitive as it helps when you forget your drink or protein shake to buy one , otherwise I avoid and wait untill I'm at a shop. Take a look at the elasticity of demand , sell at a lower price but a greater amount and they'll do better .

  • 5/5 Monika n. 2 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Rachel I. 2 years ago on Google
    No staff around to help on my first visit. Couldn't find anyone to help so rang my partner to ask where things were. Signs saying to clean equipment but couldn't find any spray or blue roll. Besides that I liked it 🙂
