    Nuffield is the best gym I've belonged too. Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. I work from here as well as using all facilities. Honestly wouldn't go anywhere else. They cater for all ages and abilities. I do a range of weight based classes, spin and pilates as well as gym floor. Need to get on early to book classes just have to advance book as classes are very popular due to the great instructors Becky, Simon especially. Pru is very accommodating to all members, happy and assists older client's with mobility issues upstairs and offers drinks to help out in this hot weather. I have made so many friends staff and gym goers couldn't be without the place.

    I literally love this gym, it’s fair priced and the swimming facilities are amazing. However the staff, they are rude and think they are the in a play ground 9 times out of 10!! The personal trainers that have to man the front desk when you leave at times are just rude and think they are better than having to stand at reception. But they don’t even do that, they look you up and down and carry on making there Costa coffee like the blonde woman with short spiked hair just did. It took for me to say “see ya later have a good weekend” for her to just look up from her coffee and another personal trainer who was there with the red her to say bye have a good weekend. When swimming you can see them all playing about and messing around and laughing at the customers that they get see come and go!! Just cause you’ve lowered you’re prices Nuffield Northampton your rude and disrespectful. I can only imagine what putting this review up is going to do when I come back

    I joined up to this gym not long ago as it's close to where I live and I'm fixed in for a year. I really wish I hadn't. I thought I'd be ok with the Nuffield brand, but it's quite disappointing. Both the gym and the pool are quite small, and whilst the staff are civil, they don't go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The whole place is very outdated which makes it feel a little grimy. Also, the gym is supposed to be open until 10pm but half an hour before closing they come round and start switching all the treadmills and equipment off, and it feels like you can't ask them to leave certain things on so that you can finish your workout. Just say the gym closes at 930, otherwise it feels like false advertising. I'm locked in for a year now, but once that's up I'll be going elsewhere, most likely back to my old gym, which is further away but much more user friendly. Very expensive for what it is.

    Join up last year find swimming pool and steam room ok . Not happy with cardio equipment could do with new treadmills and cross trainer. Feel bit out dated. Once my membership is up I will probably chancel it .

    Not worth the price, with the tiny gym area and outdated equipment. Even the swimming pool appears dingy and small. Staff were friendly.

    I wouldn't waste your money. The classes are impossible to get into, the pool isn't very big and the swimmers are quite rude had to go on the fast lane as the middle was busy, and an old woman had a go at me) it was my second time so ruined my confidence. I did call nuffield to cancel and Pru was so lovely and understanding. she did my tour originally and was great, the staff are generally lovely and really helpful. It's just such a shame about the classes and the pool.

    Joined this gym a couple of years ago and have had no issues whatsoever. Always found the staff to be friendly, helpful and polite. Won't look at changing gyms any time soon

    Ignore the 1* reviews, they don’t reflect most experiences. Great sauna and steam room. Weights area could be a little bigger, but you can always get on a machine even during peak hours.

    Fantastic gym with really friendly staff and great PT’s who go out of their way to help. Great selection of well run classes both during the day and outside work hours. Good range of equipment and some amazing new spin bikes.

    Ive been a member of several gyms over the years, however all in all, Nuffield in Northampton is the best overall. There are a huge range of classes to pick from which cater for all ages, abilities and tastes (circuits, boxfit, strength, lifting, conditioning, mobility and aqua to name a few) I recently started doing classes for the first time ever and over a period of 7mths have managed to lose over 2 stone; never felt fitter. Thank you Chris, Finn, Ollie and in particular, Becky who is my Personal Trainer and helped me most in achieving my fitness goals The facilities are very good and suit all my requirements however it is the staff that make this place really stand out. The are all friendly, helpful and knowledgeable which in turn attract a nice clientele, making Nuffield a great place to train and workout.

    The Nuffield gym in Northampton, is a very friendly place to work out. The classes are excellent with a vast array of different types to choose from, to suit every ability. They also offer a range of Les Mills classes which are incredible. The swimming pool and sauna area is a welcome treat after a hard work out in the gym. The staff are always friendly and professional, the PTs, are knowledgeable and always on hand to assist you if you need help. The Nuffield also offer free health checks with an action plan to help you improve your health and fitness. Highly recommend.

    Nuffield Health Northampton Fitness & Wellbeing Gym is a truly superb Gym and Swimming Pool Venue which also offers a great range of classes both in the gym and pool. The staff at the gym are all caring, supportive, friendly and very knowledgeable about all relevant aspects of fitness, whether you're young and sporty, elderly with some medical issues or somewhere in between. I have been having personal training once or twice a week for several years from a lovely staff member, Dean Roberts, who was recently appointed to the role of Deputy Manager here. I am a rather overweight woman and with his encouragement and care I have now lost over 3 stone in weight! I cannot recommend this fabulous place too highly. I have been coming here regularly for about 5 years and it has helped me through some very dark times.

    Small gym, facilities and equipment often broken and take long time to repair sauna etc. Just looks run down and tired not worth the £55 a month fee especially with so many better equipped gyms near by charging £15 for the month. Half the lockers do not work so spend 15 minutes getting one to work. Also when you leave they send you debt letters and make you pay an extra fee to leave. Pretty poor all round really avoid.

    Good clean gym, lots of different machines, free weights, classes all good. Swimming pool is good too, though can get busy at peak times. It's kept clean, the staff are all friendly. Very good value compared to the other gyms around as well. I was a member for a year, after my contract was up I cancelled because I had access to another gym for free, cancellation was easy and no hassle. Will probably rejoin here soon.

    We arrived with Nuffield member for a day visit to check the health club out . One of our members didn't have an ID on them and we were told she can't join in . You just have lost potential customers. Well done to the guy at the reception 👏

  • 2/5 Guy P. 1 year ago on Google
    I often come here as a guest when up in Northants visiting my relatives for a few days at a time throughout the year. For me it's gym is very good that stil uses the so called slightly "dated" (by some) Life Fitness equipment, of which is far better suited to me than the latest hi-tech equipment re the "Technogym" brand that is used in most Nuffields nowadays....and is still far superior than it's modern day 'Technogym' replacement IMO. However like with a fair few small 20m swimming pool-only Nuffield set ups up and down the country Iuse, then it tends to be open to swimming lessons and such like a plenty - which is all well and good if it's a more spacious 25m pool but not one of the smallest possible variety to host all and sundry on top of public swimming! Sadly this therefore gives it a 2/5 rating instead of 4/5 for me. Had the pool situation been like my main Nuffield (Barbican Approach) gym in Plymouth (one that doesn't allow children in it's pool for anything, due to it's limited 20m length/size - and which only has swimming lessons on at mostly 'off peak' times for an hour or so on average throughout the week days), then it would've been 4/5.

    I am from another Nuffield club, when I entered and told the colleague manning the front desk, he took me into the gym and explained where everything was and the type of lockers used at the club. Was very impressed, this is the first Nuffield that has done this after I’ve told them I’m from another club. Excellent customer service. Thanks guys

    Been a member for a few years now. Would not go anywhere else. Friendly helpful staff make the place special. Yes it's not new and shiny but it's clean and a nice place to train. Love it

    Absolutely loved it for two days training, lots of space some awesome machines lacks a little bit of a vibe tho maybe a better choice of music . Maybe I'm just too used to mine back home keep up the good work guys and girls x

  • 3/5 David F. 5 years ago on Google
    Nice clean centre. Staff are brilliant. But the weights section is out of date. No proper facilities for muscle development such as T-Bar, Pec Extension, Back extension, no plate loading machines etc. The benches are old and torn Centre good for cardio and classes

  • 2/5 Olly C. 4 years ago on Google
    Used to be a great team working there, but recently some managers have let things really slip. Recently got locked in the gym at night, had to get out via fure door. Told the manager in car park and he couldn't have been more nonchalant about it ro the point of being really rude. Intend to make a formal complaint, as letting down what was omce a great gym and some of the good staff that are left who still attempt to make you feel very welcome.

  • 3/5 Matt S. 4 years ago on Google
    Visited the gym and Steam room. Wasn't bad, the gym was seriously lacking facilities so had to compromise abit. The steam room was very good, everything fine there, as with the showers and lockers. Just the lack of facilities for me is why I couldn't give anything more than 3 stars.

  • 1/5 Andreea M. 7 months ago on Google
    After several times that I found the shower drain clogged with a lot of hair or toilet seats not cleaned properly,I've just changed to the other shower or another toilet to avoid complaining...but after few weeks the cleaning lady told me.that I'm.not allowed to use my shower gel with coffe and my coffee scrub because it's getting dirty the shower and while I was changing she came back with a bucket and told me to clean up my shower. Now they're saying it's a policy that we can't wash with shower gel that contain coffee 😯😲..It wasn't when I signed the contract
