    I am totally disappointed with the facility and the attitude of the managerial staffs in Amritage Sports Centre. Especially a staff called Darren / Darryl ? so rude to the participants for no reasons while people were polite and trying to do sports !!! I highly recommend any other sports centres where the staffs and facilities are much friendly and great !!! For example Trinity, sugden, belle vue, ten acres.

    This is the ultimate Sports Complex. The staff are super friendly and there is lots of parking available. I go here mainly for football and the 4G pitches are the best I have played on. The complex caters for all sports activities. An exceptional facility definitely worth a visit

    If it had a decent cafe or even allowed a coffee van in on the weekends, they would be perfect and probably would take it in from all the various sports activities and attending cold parents... Hint hint.

    gym is a little small for the amount of people who use it, but has all the essential equipment there

  • 4/5 Jack F. 11 months ago on Google
    Reasonable prices for for sports hire but it is quite far out from central Manchester despite being a UoM building

  • 5/5 Graham E. 11 months ago on Google
    Excellent facilities, great for watching lacrosse and football at the same time

  • 5/5 Niclas B. 1 year ago on Google
    Huge sports complex, easily accessible, many courts, a gym etc. Everything a person needs

  • 1/5 Oliver G. 11 months ago on Google
    Small, sub par gym with diabolical opening times. Overpriced too. Wamkers

  • 5/5 T One P. 10 months ago on Google
    Great place to play football I really enjoyed it.

  • 5/5 Louise 9 months ago on Google
    Spotlessly clean with all round friendly, helpful staff. Thanks especially to Paul for helping me navigate the area!

  • 5/5 Muhammed Zahid B. 7 months ago on Google
    The quality and quantity of equipment satisfied me more than any other gym in Manchester. The large number of weight plates and 5 different racks being present are pleasing. Even the detail of having weight clamps makes it different from other gyms. Moreover, it is discounted for UoM students. The equipment seemed more than sufficient to me, except for two things. Captain's chair and a measuring scale. I reported these to the management as feedback, I hope they will take care.

    A nice open setting and bigger grounds than expected. Parking spaces were quite narrow and soon filled up. Pity nowhere to get a drink, especially with the vending machine out of action.

  • 2/5 Thomas M. 7 months ago on Google
    There are no lockers to leave your stuff in. There used to be, but not anymore, which is a shame.

  • 2/5 Pierre H. 8 months ago on Google
    Gym is nice enough but do not leave any property in the gym, it will get slolen. Within a 2 week period I left two gym towels on a bench, they disappeared and in once case I was the last person in the gym on a Saturday and the next morning it was nowhere to be found. The staff smile but don't care, finders keepers losers weepers seems to be the prevailing attitude. Entirely my own fault but its disappointing that there are scummy people pathetic enough to steal gym towels but there you have it.

    Has a small gym with cardio, weights and a stretch zone . Multiple halls able to be booked and close proximity to student accommodation.

  • 4/5 Simeon K. 6 months ago on Google
    Good facility with changing rooms and toilets. Parking on site restricted through an app but 3 hours free is plenty of time!

  • 4/5 Chris E. 2 years ago on Google
    Good pitches in an easy to reach location. The changing facilities could do with an update but perfectly functional and clean. The signage could do with being a bit more obvious and clearer but some of this is down to home teams to make clear to visitors. Parking is free for three hours via an app (as of 29/01/22)

  • 4/5 Mbongeni M. 2 years ago on Google
    Good facility, clean and modern. Could use better sign-posting for parking areas, however.

  • 4/5 Mike C. 2 years ago on Google
    Had to go for a Covid PCR test. Very efficient in and out in 20 minutes.

  • 4/5 Vips M. 2 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Tom W. 2 years ago on Google
    pretty good pitches aren't too rough

  • 1/5 anon a. 2 years ago on Google
    Utter garbage overpriced impossible to book a court. Staff untrained , no one answers a phone . The custumer service is appalling. They are funded by the council throught the unis and are a utter home of a gym and sports hall. It does nothing for local people . Get rid ASAP.

  • 5/5 Katie B. 2 years ago on Google
    Covid PCR test site. Staff where friendly and helpful. Felt safe inside

  • 5/5 Nav S. 2 years ago on Google
    Friendly staff, great facilities and a central location. While parking is free, but you will need the pay by phone app to park there.

  • 5/5 mike j. 2 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Paul “Zippy” D. 7 months ago on Google
    Great facilities. Panic loading of car parking apps to pay to park for three hours. First three hours are free. Viewing any hockey game is poor. Has a Strangeways feel about it, in the cages.

  • 5/5 Ian “Red” R. 1 year ago on Google
    Loads of good quality sports pitches, clean amenities and plenty of decent parking on-site.

  • 5/5 Jakub Kloc (. 2 years ago on Google

    We used the squash courts which haven't been cleaned in years it would seem. The ball kept picking up dust even. Would not recommend.
