    It’s busy, but I can always find a space to workout. The PTs are wonderful and I love it!

    My experience at the gym has been Brilliant & I've been their a good few years now. The staff are friendly & approachable & so are the members, there is just an overall good vibe throughout. The gym is clean, the equipment is updated but the only reason i gave a 4 instead of 5 is because when an equipment is not working sometimes it takes a while to be fixed but thats not often so just a little criticism but generally a nice gym to be a member of.

    Worst gym I have ever been to... Only 2 squat racks, barbells are not labelled with weight, weights always left out by other members (previous gyms I've been a member of have given penalties to members for not putting equipment away), guys working out without t-shirts and being aggressive in their behaviour, PTs always chatting and never offering assistance, lack of basic equipment such as limited kettlebells, no prowler. Overall the worst gym I have ever been to

    Overall i enjoyed myself until it was time to leave. I Wasn't too impressed about being questioned by the male staff about training my friend. The guys reasoning (because I heard you counting) "So f#%#&#& what!!" Is that not what training partners do??? Or are we supposed to workout in silence when working out together! it is not a library it is a gym. It is as if they thought I came to steal customers. I laughed it off but inside I was raging. I mainly use puregym and I go to many different ones with different training partners never have I had to answer such a question due to me counting someones reps. composure is everything..

    I’ve been going to this gym for around a year now and I always have a lovely experience. There’s loads of equipment available and it’s always clean and in the right place. I never usually have to wait for the squat racks which is a huge bonus. The classes are also really amazing and so are the instructors. Chanelle and Scarlett in particular are so friendly and approachable and really make an effort to get to know people in the class and make them feel comfortable.

    Used to be decent but something has happened in recent months and the place has fallen into an appalling state. This morning the water tap, one door panel, and at least 7 machines were broken, and the roof was leaking. They've removed all the cleaning stations so the equipment is often disgusting, especially some of the mats, because there's nothing for people to clean their sweat off with. There were no staff this morning and apparently the gym is "remotely monitored".

  • 5/5 Helen M. 6 months ago on Google
    I love this gym. I've been going for about 3 months now and been to classes with Michael (fit pump) and Scarlet (pilates), which were both great. I've been to other branches of the Gym Group and it's the only gym where the equipment seems to maintained to a high standard and which has several fully working Concept2 rowing machines.

  • 5/5 Karuna M. 11 months ago on Google
    Very friendly staff giving my friend and I a tour. The promotion of 13£ for a month is very useful and affordable as well. Highly recommend visiting the gym and seeing if it works for you. Lots of outlets available and mostly 24hrs too x

  • 5/5 Morgan S. 9 months ago on Google
    Excellent staff, especially John & Kyle who make sure your comfortable, informed and enjoying your gym experience. Would definitely recommend if your looking for PTs Clean and plenty of equipment. Great range of classes available.

  • 5/5 Elena P. 7 months ago on Google
    This gym is a welcoming, clean and very well equipped. John is an extremely knowledgable, approachable and helpful personal trainer. He has helped me with my boxing and knows a lot about strength training too.

  • 5/5 Imrun I. 6 months ago on Google
    I've been training with Chanelle from Nels Vibes and You at The Gym Group Peckham. Highly recommended. Chanelle is an exceptional fitness trainer, she has really helped me gain more confidence and increase my personal best weights over a very short space of time. She incredibly motivating and supportive of my journey, with tailored training and nutrition programme.

  • 5/5 Chelsea R. 5 months ago on Google
    I've been training with Chanelle at Nels Vibes & You for 6 months now and I can't recommend her enough. Chanelle created a nutrition and fitness plan to suit my needs and helped me to achieve my goals. To date Chanelle has helped me to get into the best shape of my life and continues to adapt and amend all plans where necessary. Very supportive, knowledgeable, and it's the best investment I've ever made.

    Pretty decent gym for the price point- although they keep increasing the price. Still, it’s cheap for all the equipment it has. The weight lifting section is honestly the best I’ve been to for all the cheap gyms. They have two rigs where you can squat and deadlift, as well as two other squat racks. There’s two benches, but when they’re being used, the two squat racks can be used to do bench. I would say they just need more 1.25kg and 2.5kg plates as people often use them for heel elevation or rolling barbells onto when playing up for hip thrusts.

    Been going here on and off for years. After visiting other branches, this gym is excellent in comparison. The cleanliness and open space keeps me coming back

  • 4/5 Holly B. 3 months ago on Google New
    I have multi-gym access and this is by far the best of the gyms I go to, it's huge and has a wide range of equipment, and doesn't seem to get too overly busy. Staff members are always around when I go.

  • 5/5 Tianne L. 3 months ago on Google New
    Been coming here for a few months! Enjoy working out here. Staff have been friendly and welcoming.

  • 5/5 PHILIP C. 4 months ago on Google
    Staff are always cleaning and people using sweat towels to wipe down which is great to see. Easy for my workouts 24.7

  • 5/5 J G. 4 months ago on Google
    Lovely team, gym has everything it’s needs and also the workers are always willing support and help you improve your technique

  • 3/5 Emily B. 1 year ago on Google
    Good weights section and lots of machines for cardio. However very male dominant and busy. Only time I've found quiet is Saturday afternoon. Have a good selection of classes too. A lot of regulars so you get used to faces etc.

  • 5/5 Admin O. 4 years ago on Google
    Local gym that I use regularly. Not too big that you get overwhelmed but big enough to get into your zone, with lots of equipment. I love going very early mornings or weekends when theres less people. It's a very clean gym and well looked after. Has a sports direct next door which is handy, and close to the train and bus stations for easy travel.

  • 5/5 Selbi A. 1 year ago on Google
    Such a nice gym for nice price. It has so many equipments and you never have to wait for someone to finish to use any of the equipments. They have the app where u can see ur progress, see how occupied is the gym right that moment and watch online exercises and repeat at home. Also I like the variety of group classes, coaches are also professionals. Especially, I like classes of Alicia. You can see how dedicated to her work she is, her exercises are never boring.

  • 4/5 Susan O. 2 years ago on Google
    Great gym but not the same without Riccardo there anymore

  • 5/5 Joao Ismael De S. 2 years ago on Google
    Hands down, best choice I’ve made training at The Gym Peckham. VERY friendly team who make me actually want to go train. I look forward to walking through the doors into the gym and always feeling amazing and energetic after each training.

  • 5/5 Keb J. 2 years ago on Google
    Great gym, the space has been used in a very smart way which leaves you with enough space to make your exercises. I rarely wait to use a machine unlike other gyms. Highly satisfied.

  • 5/5 Adam M. 2 years ago on Google
    Easily the best gym experience I've had by far. A good array of people of all ages here to just work out. Nothing pretentious. And if you're into squats, there's never a massive wait to get the racks either. Can't recommend enough.

  • 5/5 Edmond L. 2 years ago on Google
    My local The Gym Group gym. The 24 hour opening of this gym has always been a great benefit. With a busy work-life schedule, I enjoy being able to go to the gym late at night occasionally. The staff are always friendly & approachable. The gym is always clean. Great selection of free weights & equipment for all forms of exercise, not just weight training or cardio. Fellow gym members are friendly, respectful & willing to offer help or advice if asked. Have been a member of The Gym Group for over 5 years, and find it great that with the membership level I chose I can access up to 5 different gym locations. As well as the Peckham gym, I have access to 2 gyms near work, plus 2 gyms near family members. The Gym Group website makes it easy to manage my account & update access to gym locations, plus the mobile app is quite good too. Highly recommend both the Peckham gym & The Gym Group as a whole. Very good value for money.

    It's alright. It's a basic gym - mostly it gets this rating because they don't have the bikes I prefer. It's cleaned regularly though and the staff I've had contact with our very friendly and helpful.

  • 5/5 Rosie C. 2 years ago on Google
    Love this gym. Lots of space, good equipment and not at all intimidating.

  • 4/5 Sergio M (. 2 years ago on Google
    Very clean, nice environment with lots of space to excersice safely in these current pandemic times.

  • 5/5 Samara 2 years ago on Google
    Good gym - nice and clean. Love how you can check if it is busy or not. Good amount of machines. Looking forward to booking some classes there.

  • 5/5 Davina g. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely staff, great equipment and overall recommend it. It’s just that extra care you get on a personal level.

  • 1/5 James P. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice but gets far too busy. Get rid of the excessive number of cardio machines (which I’ve never seen more than half occupied) and get more free weights, benches and racks, which are always over capacity. Edit: it’s actually got worse. Now consistently rammed even at 10pm. And the cardio obviously remains almost unused…

  • 1/5 Christopher Y. 2 years ago on Google
    I find it horrible customer service to say these responses to reviews are the owner, when really they're just the same generic responses just shuffled around. This company is terrible, taking my payment on random days, no answer to any emails, they had a couple of good employees/trainers who have since moved on or been fired for things they all do. And lastly don't bother replying "owner" with one of your generic responses, no amount of fake niceties will ever get me to join again.
