    6/12/22 Thanks going to get an E or a D on my maths integration CCT tomorrow because of the sadness that has arisen from the faulty bookings of the basketball court. The reason I give at least one star is because my parents evening was 2 weeks ago (rather than in a couple months) meaning my parents will never know I got this awful result. On a serious note the reviews below say the whole story apart from Freddie Herdman (don’t know who he is) 22/6/23 EDIT: i got an A on the test, and it turned out it wasn't your fault, it was DJ Mezzas (west kirby warriors head coach and occasional manager) astounding dyslexia which has let you down. sorry lads

    Not Best pleased after todays episode of events. Walked into a circus followed by a complete lack of respect to myself and my pals. Basketball court was booked and then we were told that it was not and that there was a mistake! :( . Was forced to rebook or have a refund. Not happy 0 stars if possible!

    Very dirty changing rooms. I don’t think the pool is regulated properly. The last few times I’ve swam here I got a sore throat and a cough. I can only assume the chlorine levels are higher than they should be and there is inadequate ventilation. Also, lots of hairs at the bottom of the water.

    The gym is now open with new aircon and the most strict following of the 2m distancing for a gym I've seen so far. It's very impressive and a lot of care and attention put into it. The staff are also extremely friendly and useful.

    The pool is beautiful, absolutely lovely but the changing rooms seriously let it down. Some of the changing rooms are just absolutely disgusting. I honestly feel gross getting changed in them. 90% of the showers don't have proper showerheads. There also isn't free parking at this place so expect a £2 charge for a two hour visit. -3.5/5 for the pool. ( +1 for some floaties but -0.5 for no diving) - 0.5/5 stars for the changing rooms. - 1/5 for the parking as still convenient. - Overall 1.66/5 stars. Score will be rounded down.

    A wonderful place to swim and get some time for yourself. Friendly staff and great music while you swim. Warm water most times I've been in the pandemic

    Good enough. They need to clean up the swimming pool a bit better.

    Haven't been here for about 4 years and I couldn't believe the condition it's in. It was so grubby and dated. The whole building needs refurbishing. There were even flies in the shower area and changing area, really put me off and made me feel so uncomfortable 🤮 I think they need to get rid of all the tiles and put waterproof boards up that can be cleaned more easily as everywhere is just absolutely disgusting. I feel sorry for people paying for a regular membership for here, not getting their money's worth at all.

    Decent but extremely cold pool. Went in with children at the weekend and couldn’t last more than 20 minutes. It was absolutely freezing and the children got very cold. It would be much better if they warmed up the water to a better, more human friendly temperature

    Always nice staff and lovely pool. The canteen staff go out of their way to be helpful. Very patient and kind to little ones and always a smile and good service for the rest of us. They also know how to fry bacon and egg properly 👍😃

    Great pool, usually busy on a Sunday but it's fine, changing area could do with an update its a bit grubby but it does the job for getting changed

  • 3/5 SmallCuteCat P. 7 months ago on Google
    Great pool, not too deep, fairly warm water, but most of the lockers and changing rooms are covered in mould because they only wash them with water.

    I went for the public swim session today which had already been shortened from 1hr to 3/4hr 1.15 to 2pm, I arrived around 1pm to get changed ready for my swim (being disabled it takes a little longer to get ready, I would usually have my costume on but had been in a gym class previously which I would give 5 stars too) anyway when I went to book in they said you couldn't do that until 1.15 when the session starts which meant you wouldn't be getting the full 3/4hr session. I have never come accross this before at other local centres. I will go elsewhere in future.

    I really enjoy going to the west kirby concourse in the heart of west kirby. It has everything you need from swimming to having a sauna or going to the gym or playing 5 a side football or badminton which you can view from the gallery above to watch games I've been going there since my young teens, there's also a bar and lounge with pool table or snooker a variety of fun sport or meeting up with friends and you can even watch the swimming upstairs in the viewing gallery and have a soft drinks, a great day out and reasonable prices.

    First time back for swim in 2 years. Lovely staff at pay desk. Sadly the car park behind is card only payment.

    First time back in a few years. Great range of modern equipment. Staff are absolutely lovely and very helpful. Covid measures are meticulous. Can’t recommend highly enough.

    Very well organised and very safe. Great to be back.

  • 2/5 kazumi L. 2 years ago on Google
    I am reviewing at the time of visit. 23/04/21 which just reopened since lockdown. Gym was less available but ok. My biggest disappointment was no changing room available to use. I use gym after work, on my way home. Not able to change at gym means I need to go home first and out again in busy time of the day. Just waste of time. Also I was allowed to enter concourse building minutes before booked time so even if changing room was open, time spend at the gym would be greatly reduced. Other independent gym has much smaller changing room and shower room yet operating so there's no excuse not to sort it out before reopen.

    A great swimming pool with great staff.

  • 5/5 Victoria D. 5 years ago on Google
    Always nice and clean with plenty of other things to do near by also. Inc taking a two minute walk which will take you to westkirbys lovely beach!

  • 5/5 Phill D. 2 years ago on Google
    Clean, well organised. You'll need to book in advance via the Web site though.
