PHX GYM Brighton: Opinions
Negative experience: Gym atmosphere and equipment is the best in Sussex however I had to cancel my membership for private reasons and a year later with no advanced noticed they have taken £30 out my bank and are refusing to refund. I’ve let them keep the money and just asked for them to remove my details.
Fantastic experience: My Spiritual home Great gym, top end machines and very well priced
Fantastic experience: PHX gym is exactly what a gym is meant to be. The equipment is fantastic, and the gym is always updating equipment, and machines are well maintained. Juice bar, protein options like meals that you can eat at the gym. The gym has a range of protein powders and natural supplements for purchase. Comfortable seating area to chill pre or post workout. Studio and other workout and stretch areas. There are plenty of cardio options, cables, and free weights. it's never a dull workout. Staff are friendly and helpful. There are plenty of personal trainers if required. PHX gym is a nice vibe and a friendly gym. Mix of younger and older people of all training abilities. Parking, showers, and clean changing area. Membership options, and it's priced right for a gym like this. 5
Fantastic experience: Moved here from underground gym after kit wasn't being fixed/went a bit downhill. Can't honestly say PHX is 100 times better. The couples membership is great, the quipement is spot on and repaired extremely quickly when it needs to be. Always new bits of kit and the receptionists are friendly

Fantastic experience: Great facilities, friendly environment 10/10
Fantastic experience: I have been coming to this gym for over 3 years now and I haven’t had a gym experience like phx. The workers are very welcoming and kind, they offer you deals frequently; they also let you borrow their variety of accessories behind the desk for completely free! Their juice bar is the best juice bar I’ve seen in a gym so far with many different protein snacks and drinks! 10/10 gym would definitely recommend to anyone who’s looking for a new gym!

Negative experience: Two star because in the past I have had good experiences with this gym untill recently. I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs at [phx gym brighton]. As a paying member of your gym, I have noticed several concerning issues that I feel compelled to address. Firstly, I find it unacceptable that the gym owner, expect members to perform janitorial duties such as mopping floors, rinsing out showers, and cleaning up after themselves. While I understand the importance of maintaining a clean environment, it is not the responsibility of paying members to act as cleaners for the gym. We are there to work out and utilize the facilities, not to serve as unpaid staff. Furthermore, the prohibition on using chalk in the gym strikes me as arbitrary and unwarranted. Chalk is a commonly used aid in weightlifting and provides essential grip support, especially during heavy lifts. Banning its use without valid reasoning hinders members' ability to safely and effectively engage in their workouts. Additionally, while I understand the importance of keeping the gym tidy, the expectation for members to put away weights left out by others is unreasonable. How ever I do know that this is common in all gyms. It is the responsibility of the gym staff to ensure that equipment is properly maintained and organized, not the paying members. And lastly have staff walk into the changing rooms when people are using them is a invasion of one’s privacy and really does not make you feel comfortable at all and gives u a sense that they are going under or just don’t like people using there gyms too much. Overall, I am deeply disappointed by the lack of consideration and respect shown towards paying members at (phx brighton) As a valued customer, I expect to be treated with dignity and professionalism, and I urge you to address these issues promptly to improve the overall experience for all members now that I have given this review I will never be welcome back but that’s fine as I am speaking for those that are afraid to speak up. David.
Fantastic experience: Wow what an amazing place , never seen such a well equipped gym !
Fantastic experience: Great gym, good equipment and always clean.
Positive experience: Good hi tecgym will suit everyone's need,a lots of video fans and cameras everywhere
Fantastic experience: Great gym, well run with an astonishing range of equipment. Staff are all friendly and the atmosphere is very relaxed.
Fantastic experience: Best gym in Brighton without doubt
Fantastic experience: Such an amazing gym and atmosphere! I always visit this gym every year during the Christmas period when I come to visit my sibling. I purchased a week day pass for £20 which is a bargain.
Fantastic experience: Best quality machines I have ever used which makes a big difference to your workout. There is also a large selection of machines available. Gym is clean and not overcrowded. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: I’ve benefited from training at all of the top bodybuilding gyms from greater London to the south coast and I can categorically say that this gym and the equipment is the best around, for those of you that don’t know - this brand of equipment is Panatta, utilised by the very elite in the bodybuilding industry! The gym itself is exceptionally clean at all times, juice bar is on demand, staff are welcoming, helpful, professional and friendly. Showers, toilets available for all genders. The owner ensures that this establishment is kept immaculately clean. This gym welcomes all comers, from beginners to amateur lifters and so on. Fanastic gym - if you’re in the area give it a go… Day passes / weekly passes / rolling contracts / fixed contracts available to suit. Or if you’re in the Burgess Hill area - give the other PHX gym a go… PHX Burgess Hill.
Fantastic experience: Large variety of machines
Positive experience: Easy to get there with the bus. Nice gym, full of machines. I didn’t have a good impression regarding the staff, they didn’t show me the gym but just said “go around and have a look” which didn’t make me really comfortable.
Fantastic experience: Best gym in Brighton, great equipment, opening hours, parking
Fantastic experience: Best gym I know in terms of staff friendliness and equipment.
Fantastic experience: Great gym and environment
Negative experience: Charging me past my contract then contacted their collections team to send us a bill for £69. All because they’re going under, disgrace of a gym
Negative experience: Came all the way from London to record a video with my client and we’ve been told we cannot record in here. Staff member was very rude and told us we had to wait until 8pm to speak to a manager
Any commercial filming or photo shoot needs to be requested and prearranged. Had this been done prior to your visit we could have discussed and suggested the most suitable time for you to visit the facilities to carry out your shoot. Whilst we welcome anyone to use the facilities and film, our main priority is our members, which we will always take into consideration when allowing any sort of commercial media recording to take place. Regards, Team PHX GYM Brighton
Negative experience: Awful gym. Customer service is non existent. Gormless and unhelpful staff members. Don't waste your money on this plastic gym.
Fantastic experience: Great variety of kit & kept tidy plus friendly staff. Really appreciate the option for buying 10 sessions in bulk as I use it 1-2 times per week and a monthly sub would be too costly for me. Would recommend
Fantastic experience: Exceptional facility with lots of equipment: machines, free weights, cardio, area for sleds. Supplements, drinks, shakes also sold
Fantastic experience: Best gym in Brighton
Fantastic experience: By far the best gym in Brighton. I’ve been to every gym in Brighton and nothing comes close. They have the best equipment, friendly staff and an amazing atmosphere. I also love how they’re constantly adding new equipment and fixing any broken machines instantly.
Fantastic experience: Really awesome gym with super friendly and helpful staff. I used this place on a recent trip back to the UK and it’s one of the best equipped, cleanest and friendliest gyms around.
Fantastic experience: Great equipment, good crowd and great staff ! Love training here !
Positive experience: Well equipped gym, changing rooms could be better.
Fantastic experience: All the staff is very friendly and are very attentive towards members and for the maintenance of the place. Welcoming to everyone from all fitness background and a lovely environment. It’s lovely to see the Michel Kuipers Brighton goalkeeper come here and use his own gym along with his business partners too. Many different machines to use. They also have their own shop with lots of health products and a barbershop. Uber drivers can use their Gympass membership here and their families too!
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym! Best gym space in brighton !
Fantastic experience: Really good gym it's got everything you need. Parking can be difficult
Positive experience: Didn't have the Bench Press that would be suitable for tall individuals like me, ended up pulling a hamstring. Cannot use chalk into the gym. The Olympic weights intervals weren't optimal for training (70-74-78-80 instead of 70-72.5-75-77.5-80), no Stiff Bars as well. So it's not catered to strength Despite it all of that, it has the most accessories that you can find in a gym, you need to work on a specific muscle group and need to isolate here and there. And only for aesthetics/bodybuilding purposes? Then this gym will be a fantastic addition to check out. And they were able to keep my belt safe when I accidentally left it so I liked it But personally as a Powerlifter, I can see myself coming here if I was only performing the Squats
Fantastic experience: Modern aesthetic. Great all around machines and space but lacks some good back machines
Fantastic experience: Great gym, visited for a day pass and enjoyed it. Good workout atmosphere
Fantastic experience: I have been training at this gym for over a year now and it's the best gym I have ever joined! All the staff are very approachable and friendly and are always happy to help. The range of equipment/facilities in the gym is incredible. This gym has the most amazing, buzzy atmosphere.
Fantastic experience: Best gym in the South! Love the family atmosphere, not to mention - best equipment and space!
Negative experience: Good gym BUT. Too many people/kids, that's the reason why I cancelled my membership. BE CAREFUL when you cancel it, I ended up paying 3 times the fee because they told me at the front desk to cancel my direct debit but then a debs collection company got in touch with me claiming 3 times the monthly payment. I guess that's the way to make "a bit extra" not like any other gym where they let you leave whenever you want.
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym !
Fantastic experience: Have just been up to PHX for the first time. As a veteran weightlifter of 35 years with recently diagnosed spinal issues, this gym is absolutely amazing. The calibre of equipment (especially for legs in my case) is unsurpassed by any gym I’ve seen outside of the US or Canada. Vibe in the gym is really friendly, relaxed and inclusive. Everything starts with excellent customer service and that was definitely true at the front desk today. Very much looking forward to coming back for a “spine safe” leg day in the near future. Nice work guys. 10/10 :)
Fantastic experience: SIMPLY THE BEST GYM IN BRIGHTON. This is the showcase gym of Panatta in the UK and anyone that understand gyms would really appreciate it. Michele is the best
Fantastic experience: Perfect gym for me - they focus very much on range of equipment rather than other amenities. E.g. I would never take a shower here, the male changing rooms don't even have a door handle, but they make up for it with the equipment.
Thank you for your honest review. Happy to hear you are enjoying the large range of equipment. Our changing rooms will be undergoing a refurbishment in the coming weeks as we continue to improve our facilities. Regards Team PHX GYM Brighton
Fantastic experience: Amazing looking gym
Fantastic experience: Slightly biased as I am a self employed Personal Trainer that works at PHX Gym. However this gym has the best equipment on offer in East Sussex.
Fantastic experience: Awesome gym with an unreal range of machines and free weights! Highly recommend
Positive experience: The equipment is brilliant, there is enough to ensure you are able to complete your workout during busy times. The staff are always pleasant, which is always a big factor for me in any service environment. It was slightly frustrating having to request a refund for an overpayment and provide my details on multiple occasions over a three week period - however the problem arose from my own fault. I've listened to slow rap music for a large portion of my life, however I don't tend to find it particularly motivating whilst working out - a prominent genre of music in PHX. My time at PHX was very brief due to my stint in Brighton lasting only two months, however I am overall very pleased I made the choice to join this gym, and would thoroughly recommend.
Positive experience: Ive only been once, the staff were helpful, but it was overly busy at that time 7pm ish Good selection of machines though and free weights , cost 7 pound to usefacilities , id prefer to pay a fiver or 30 a month myself.
Positive experience: One of best equipped gyms I have ever been to. Shame I'm not local. My only small comment is that the changing rooms are too small, there are no lockers so don't take anything of value and there are only 2 shower cubicles and 1 tiny sink to wash your hands in for all the lads to share. All in all its a fair trade off, the equipment is amazing.
Fantastic experience: Amazing equipment and welcoming atmosphere.
Fantastic experience: Best gym in Brighton
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym, friendly, clean, amazing equipment, you never have to wait around for equipment as there’s plenty . By far the best gym around
Fantastic experience: Friendly helpful staff. Bought a day pass and everything I needed was there. Good gym. Good selection of free weights, squat racks and machines.
Negative experience: Was back in Brighton for a month so signed up to PHX gym for July. Despite cancelling my direct debit, I still was asked to pay for my membership fee for August (Even though I made it clear afterwards I would not be using the gym at all this month). As part of my work I have to move location every few months, and other companies (JD gyms, pure gym and local gyms) have been accommodating in cancelling my membership due to moving location. Quite disappointing I am paying £30 for no gym use. Despite this the gym equipment is very high level and all the staff were great whenever I went to the gym.
Fantastic experience: The best gym in Brighton
Fantastic experience: First time there and I loved it.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this gym!
Fantastic experience: I've been a member at this gym for 6 months and it's absolutly incredible. Unrivaled range of high quality equipment and huge amounts of space, it never feels too busy. Really friendly staff and members, not at all intimidating. Brighton is very lucky to have a gym like this, if you havn't checked it out you're missing out!
Fantastic experience: The best gym on the south coast. The equipment is amazing, friendly staff and great atmosphere.
Fantastic experience: Best Gym in Brighton hands down
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym with so much equipment I never have to wait until something becomes free. Lovely staff and nice atmosphere.
Fantastic experience: Very good gym, with very high spec equipment, everyone there seems pretty lovely and the showers are great.
Fantastic experience: Such an amazing gym. Full of so much quality equipment. Staff are friendly and helpful too. If you’re serious about training this is the place to be.
