    I found it to be very peaceful during the time I spent there. Went for an early morning swim before starting work. Very clean, pool was warmer than I had expected. Lockers are plentiful and can store a decent amount. Cubicles are quite spacious, and the shower tap runs both hot and cold. Other visitors I came across had been membership for many years. Vast array of activities are available to choose from. Staff when needed are very helpful.

    So much fun had by all, thank you. I just hired the small pool with slide, large pool and party room for my child’s birthday. All the staff, reception, pool staff and managers were amazing and couldn’t be more helpful and accommodating. Yes the leisure centre is dated in areas and could do with a revamp by that is more to do with council funding and not the staff that run it. My child also has swimming lessons there and I have an Everyone Active gym membership for Easton which are both affordable and well worth it. Highly recommended. Thank you 😊

    Big pool for regular swimming and a small pool with beach entrance for learners and younger kids. There is a slide for small pool attendees only. It's only on over the weekends and not all sessions. Changing rooms with lockers. Hot showers. Booking adviser, although the website is a living Hellscape. 11 year old says "water is a bit too cold on the big pool" however, we've never had to get out early!

    The worst leisure centre in the UK? No security, was once accosted by some random drunk guy after finishing on the squash courts. The place looks like it hasnt had any money spent on it since 1985. Nobody answers the phone. The vending machines dont work.

    Almost impossible to book a slot because they hardly have any public swimming sessions on each day. And then even if you do get a slot it's overcrowded and impossible to train properly. Swimming pools in other cities manage to put on public swimming almost all day, and you can just wander in and swim without booking. Why can't everyoneactive in Bristol manage this?

    Staff not too helpful and not friendly Water in the swimming pool (big pool) very dirty. You will see the dirtiness under the water. Toilet and the changing rooms not being cleaned regularly and the flooring was not hosed down with water in between sessions. Cleaning was poor, smelly urine in the toilet and changing rooms. Management needs to look into the cleaning process and condition. However, excellent and very friendly swimming instructors in the Centre mainly Ali! Also, a young man with a long hair life guard was really very attentive keeping his eyes on swimmers and saw him immediately acted upon something/someone to help.

    Been with this centre for about a month. Classes and instructors are great but the customer service is shocking. The reception team always seem unsure of how to answer questions and whenever an issue is raised they are quick to blame the customer rather than providing a solution. Almost every week an incorrect charge had been added to my account due to a lack of information being shared during my sign up. I would definitely end my membership if it wasn't for the quality of the classes I have experienced so far and the fact there is a pool on site.

    Pool was fine but the changing room floor and walls were filthy. Looked like years of grime in the corners. Thought there was a dead mouse but it was a giant filthy hair ball! Does no one inspect the standards of the cleaning? Are there any Standards?

    I really loved the fitness classes here, they have some great teachers but the gym facilities are limited and the swimming pool needs to be cleaner or upgraded.

    Fairly clean, great hot showers, nice pool although wish you could use both sections during family swims! Slide seems like it's barely on.

  • 1/5 Estefania G. 1 year ago on Google
    Each time is more complicate to swim. Pool is overflowing even if you book a lane. Doesn’t matter what is your level of swimming, only how you feel when you choose. Nobody cares if you have booked or not, then feel free to come by whenever, nobody is going to tell you anything! Shower are super filthy to add more value!

    As a whole the place is very dated and clearly none of the money made goes back into updating the facilities. The disabled call sign in the toilet been broken for over a month. Natayla and shalini are by far the worst swim teachers I've comes across. Previously watched natayla in the pool teaching stage 2 with fake lashes and a full slab of make up trying to avoid getting her face wet...yeah she looked stupid. Shalini stands of the pool side bellowing at autistic children who don't listen first time which is very embarrassing and demoralising. Apart from these two the staff as a whole seem nice and the managers are friendly.

    We had our son's birthday party in the kids pool. We had a big group of kids, with lots of parents joining in too. We got exclusive use of the slide, which the kids (and adults) loved! Afterwards we had an hour in the party room, and put on our own party food and music. The leisure centre staff were great, and the kids had a really fun party. Recommended to other parents looking for a fun, active, and affordable party option!

    Went here to play badminton. The courts were not very clean and for some reason they don’t have a water fountain near the sports hall. They made us go to the taps in the bathroom to refill water bottles. Very odd for a sports centre. At least we had a good time playing badminton which was the reason for our visit.

    Car park was on the smaller side and some spaces were quite tight. Staff were friendly and helpful when needed. I used the swimming pool which was more expensive than some others but not by that much. Changing rooms were clean but it did have a smell of wee. The pool was very cold but had plenty of room and wasn’t over booked.

    Bookings required for 1hr slots. Mainly used for swimming lessons (1/2 hr) but during Holiday Terms the slide can be used by everybody. Water is warm but recommended neoprene for small kids/babies. Parents/carers can swim in the big pool while their toddler/small kid are having their swimming lessons if the big pool is not beign used for swimming lessons. Parents/carers can use the grades to whatch their children during swimming lessons too. The showers/changing rooms need some maintenance but generally ok. Warm water. The normal hair dryers are in the toilets/changing rooms opposite to the lunch area for security reasons. Some expending machines available. Professional and nice staff.

    Had my son’s 10th Birthday here and hired the small pool and slide. It was amazing, the kids all had the best time, the staff were friendly, helpful and made the party extra fun and so stress free for me. The deputy manager answered all my questions and explained everything before and during the event. The pool and whole place was very clean and tidy, I highly recommend and all the children said it was there most fun pool party they had ever had. Also great value for money.

    Pros: central location and great and experienced fitness instructors, specially in yoga and cardio. Cons: the reception staff won't move a finger for you unless is really necessary, the swimmingpool is impossible to book and dirty, and please if you have a bit of vertigo, do not take their outdated lift to the gym floor

  • 1/5 tamsin C. 1 year ago on Google
    This place so dirty and outdated bro everyone is very unprofessional and it’s kept in a state all of the equipment is about 20/30 years old and it’s so small also the staff are rlly bad and not helpful they haven’t change this place ome bit since the 90s

  • 4/5 Chris R. 1 year ago on Google
    Hired a badminton court for an hour. Great fun, friendly, and helpful staff. Booked again for next week 🙌

  • 1/5 Alan P. 1 year ago on Google
    Not a leisure experience as it’s so overly controlled. You have to book in advance, turn up on the hour, swim for one hour, not move between pools and the times are extremely restricted. Bring back swimming when you want, for fun. Swimming lessons are pointless if swimming is hardly available.

  • 4/5 Mi S. 5 months ago on Google
    Great pricing and booking availability, also has an indoor slide making it more different than other local leisure centres.

  • 5/5 d3th3n 1 year ago on Google
    Anna is just the best instructor. She puts the kids through their paces and you can totally see the improvement. They all come out smiling too. They love it.

  • 4/5 Padraig J. 1 year ago on Google
    Best leisure centre in Bristol for the cost. Very well priced, good opening hours, and the gym is never busy. Good selection of classes and the pool is clean. Points to improve include staff attitude (get off your phones and smile for once - you're being paid to work), general maintenance, and more efforts need to be made to get the taxi drivers out of the car park

  • 3/5 Anna S. 4 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    really friendly leisure centre with a diverse mix of people. It feels very tolerant. Yes, it is a bit battered looking but most things work and I find it clean. My one gripe is the music in the swimming pool! This drives me a bit nuts as I'm not good in noisy, echoey environments. I'd love if they would make some of the lane swims "quiet swim" times.
