    Swimming has gone up to £5.20 wow! I've been coming here for years and the staff are always nice and helpful, facilities always clean enough but seems St.Helens Council are upping prices left, right and centre while the town gets worse and worse. You can only ever swim half the pool anyway because there's constantly classes on.

    Friendly leisure centre part of a group of centres run by St Helens Council. Reasonable rates to suit most people. Monthly or yearly membership or pay as you go. Good choice of enjoyable classes. Modern gym and pool. All ages are welcome from infants in the pool to pensioners.

    My membership fee has just been increased by more than 30%, This might have been more acceptable if the machines are working most of the time. As it is some have been out of action for months and others for weeks. Yesterday there were at least 5 machines not working and others with missing information so you had to guess the in between weights.

    Poorly maintained. Needed to dry my daughter's hair and 2/4 hair dryers are missing the hoses. Poor decisions too, with a large poolside seating area never used, forcing parents to sit beside the vending machines (conveniently for the profits) in a space where you cannot see your child having their swimming lesson.

    Brought the kids here for to swim during the school holidays. Place was packed but that was to be expected so not an issue. Water was very cold though, to the point the kids kept saying they were cold. Only 1 of the 4 showers worked. Family changing rooms where locked, so me and the Mrs had to split up and take kids each to get dressed etc which is difficult when you have a baby and there is nowhere to put them. Price for swimming was pretty good to be fair, lockers cost 20p and plenty of parking.

    Great gym, not to busy. Also if you buy a monthly membership then you can use the sauna, steam room and the pool.

    Great facilities for most physical activities I use the gym and swimming pool weekly, lots of free parking here but the pool can get busy at times - affordable facilities and very clean 😀

    The leisure centre boasts many activities within the sports hall & pool. Staff are friendly & helpful. My daughter started a trial of swimming lessons over the summer holidays & showed instant progress with her swimming skills! She now attends lessons full time & has already recieved her Stage 1 certificate & badge! It makes a huge difference to see the instructors actually in the water with the children supporting them & giving them confidence. The leisure centre itself is modern & clean. The pool is a good size with 2 saunas & a Gym upstairs overlooking the pool. The only reason it lost 1 star 🌟 is because the changing rooms & showers are shared/ mixed so as a woman or child there isn't much privacy. Also it is near impossible to wash your child's hair after a swim lesson without getting your clothes & footwear soaked due to the showers spraying all over the place. That one wasn't thought through properly. Other than that I can't fault the place. I can only thank the staff for my daughters progress so far! 🙏

    been going here since i was a kid. nothing much has changed but why fix what's not broken. Great facilities - gym, pool, sports hall etc. saunas aswell at back of swimming pool. sports hall used for a range of activities, recommend zumba on a Wednesday dinner time!

  • 4/5 Les Quatre F. 6 months ago on Google
    Everything you would expect from a sports centre however no recycling facilities. I was advised by the staff to throw the empty plastic bottle in the waste bin. I took it home to recycle. Very disappointed, I expect more from a council run facility.

  • 5/5 Tony D. 8 months ago on Google

    Great pool fantastic gym and staff are really lovely and friendly

  • 2/5 Ian R. 1 year ago on Google
    There are 3 main elements to the centre which are the swimming pool, the gym area and the classes. The membership fees are based on the expense of maintaining the pool. If you use the pool regularly then you’ll get your money’s worth. It may also be worth paying the price if you make use of the numerous exercise classes included in the price. If, like me, you mainly just want to use the gym area (particularly the CV equipment) then there are certainly better equipped gyms in town for a cheaper membership fee. There are only 6 treadmills here, all pretty old, and it’s sometimes difficult to get on them. Very annoying. Some of the equipment has been out of use for months. It’s in need of modernisation and, if possible, expansion, with more CV machines of a better quality to justify the fees. I use this gym for convenience (living close by) and for about an hour a days use. If I get more serious about my fitness I’d have to consider moving elsewhere for a cheaper fee and better equipment.

    Truly excellent facilities, even better if you are ex-forces, the discount is amazing.

    I really like Queens Park. The staff are friendly, the pool is a decent size and the Freestyle Fitness classes are great, especially Glow and Aquarobix. There’s a really nice atmosphere too.

😠 To be honest this gym is shocking. You can’t get a proper workout done without half of the machines being out of order.
