    I worked as a personal trainer there. And two days ago I was harassed by a client. He was insulting me also in front of everybody. The way the management handled this situation is horrible. If u want to be harassed and disrespected than sign up or work for Mercedes.

    This club has been a second home to me over the past 6 years. I love the gym. It has great equipment, plenty of natural light, a great outdoor pool, and basketball courts. The club creates an environment conducive for harboring relationships; I’ve walked away with a number of friends. The club also fosters an environment where in spite of that, I am left alone to work out when I am not there for group events like pickup basketball or leisure events like hanging at the pool. Tonya and G as well as many others have always been great to me. I also like that the trainers, like Julian, have very good programs but also have treated me like a friend. I’ve never been hassled for training, like at some other gyms I’ve been to. Management does a great job at keeping a relaxed environment and truly cares about the way the club makes you feel. The staff learns who you are and treats you like an acquaintance, sometimes like a friend. I’m moving but the club is probably the place I will miss the most in the area. I strongly suggest this place. It is the best gym/club I’ve ever attended. I’d give it more stars if I could.

    The gym is very nice and the reception people are very friendly, I don't workout there, I only buy açaí bowl in the beach bowl, which is inside the gym.

    Poor management. Never calls back for inquiries. It took nearly 3 weeks to talk to “general manager” or someone basic stuffs about membership. I’d give zero star if possible

    I have been a personal trainer at mercedes club since 2016. Mercedes club is a beautiful lux health club and much more. The staff is like family and members are a pleasure to work with. After 6 years with the club working under two amazing managers in G and Tonya,I can say mercedes club has not just been my workplace but it's also been a home.

    This is the best work out gymnasium club swimming pool and gym in New York City. The staff is incredibly polite, knowledgeable, and helpful. The club is extremely clean and offers everything that one would want in a city club, basketball, boxing, swimming, outdoor pool, every conceivable workout equipment! And a juice bar, classes, events, and an open evening theater.

    This fitness club has two swimming pools, a sun lighted gym, open air area, and an açaí bar with fruit bowls and smoothies. It's a great fitness and wellness club in Manhattan.

    If you are looking for a luxury health and fitness experience for a good price, Mercedes Club is the gym for you. I have been a member for 10 years and I don't imagine working out anywhere else. The gym is a breath of fresh air, literally and figuratively. It has a spacious and clean environment. I love the openness of the layout and the large windows. The gym does not feel cramped or claustrophobic. The natural light helps me feel more energized and positive. The equipment is state-of-the-art and always in good condition, and you can choose from a variety of weight-lifting and cardio machines. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the goers are respectful and friendly. Another thing I appreciate about Mercedes Club is that it respects my privacy and personal space. I am the person that likes to be left alone to work out and that is possible there. The staff and the goers are not intrusive or pushy, and they let me do my own thing. I can focus on my goals and enjoy my time at the gym. The ambiance is nice and motivating, without being too noisy or distracting. The club is also equipped with an indoor and outdoor pool which is a great bonus. The outdoor pool is especially nice in the summer when I can enjoy the sun and the breeze. The only thing that could be an annoyance is the peak hours on weekdays when the gym gets busy between 6 and 8 pm like any other club in NY. But even then, the gym is large enough to fit everyone comfortably, and you can always find a place to do your workout. I enjoy going there and I think you will too. It's the perfect place for anyone who wants to take care of their health and fitness. It's a high-end club without the snobbery or pretentiousness of places like Equinox. You can feel the difference as soon as you walk in.

    Been a member for 2 years now! It’s the best place to work out - clean, best staff on site, well maintained and awesome! The energy in the place is awesome - kudos to the staff and fellow members who work out there! During the pandemic era, they have taken so many precautions that made all of us feel comfortable working out. And playa bowls is right inside for post workout snack!

    Some of the staff at the lobby need to learn how to say ‘hi’ at least (yes, you, guy with a beard). Many lockers don’t work. Saunas close at 9:20-9:30 on weekdays. Overall is a good place but could use some new advanced equipment

    I do not often write reviews, but Mercedes deserves credit. I love the openness of the layout and the natural light from the large windows. The staff are like family, always respectful and welcoming. The locker room is always clean with fresh towels. There is a wide variety of workout equipment from weights, machines, ellipticals, stairmaster, spin bikes, etc, and all the equipment is in good working order and very clean. The indoor pool is fantastic with lots of natural light. Oppostite the workout area is a large seating area with a ping pong table and a billiards table. Mercedes is the best gym in NYC.

    I really like this gym! Very clean, not very crowded so there is always the machine you want available, and the staff here is super friendly. Not somewhere I have to worry about being cruised - if I don’t want to be - and the locker room amenities are great. Love the pool and the hotub is great after a workout. Front desk people are always so nice ^_^

    Joined the Mercedes fitness club a few months ago and I cannot say enough good things about it. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. The gym is fantastic and well equipped for any kind of workout. The change rooms are always clean and quite. And I love the lounge area for when I want to get work done. There are also a wide variety of classes for you to choose from if u want a more guided workout. Additionally, the trainers are super friendly and helpful. I highly recommend Julian, he’s very knowledgeable and great at helping to achieve specific goals or if you just want a more personalized workout. He will listen to your goals and aspirations and work that Information into your routine. Plus he has great advice on nutrition. The club is also equipped with an indoor and outdoor pool which is a great added bonus. Join up u won’t be sorry!

    I had been looking for a gym for quite sometime but once I found this place that was it. This is so much more than just a "Gym" this place has everything. The indoor and outdoor pools, the sauna and steam room. You can play basketball, pool and even table tennis for a bit of craic! Not too mention all the different classes they have available. It really has something for everyone. Even if you just want to get out of the house and unwind for a while you can go to the pool, have an acai bowl, maybe the sauna and sure why not finish with a massage! Doesn't sound too bad does it? But for me, places are about people and I have to say all the staff are top notch professionals and very friendly. Same with the members. I made quite a few friends and honestly it's a pleasure to be a member.
