The Gym Group London Staples Corner

Fantastic experience: I enjoy the gym, staff is very friendly and helpful. They have Car parking that make it very convenient. Classes exercises are great. Also it is very reasonable prices. Recommend

Fantastic experience: Far much more better than Puregym in terms of quality, comfort and hygiene! I just joined today.

Positive experience: On a whole, it's a nice gym, free parking, friendly staff and everyone sort of respects your space - it's a nice place to get your workout in. But it can get very busy during peak hours and it's quite hard to get a session in. Whether it is over subscribed or not, is besides the point. But there's 3 things I would like Gym Group to look into: (1) To add another leg press machine downstairs because at the moment it's one of the biggest causes for long queue times during peak hours. (2) Tighter control over the dumbells because unfortunately they end up everywhere and anywhere, including upstairs. It might be helpful if they introduced a separate dumbell rack upstairs where the classes take place so people have a choice which floor to train, and maybe add 3 - 4 benches there too by the mirror - it's quite suspicious up there. By doing this, it should eliminate people taking weights from downstairs to upstairs, and vice versa. (3) There needs to be some form of guidance around not letting more than 2 people to a single bench. When there's multiple groups of people to one bench (friends training with each other), all the weights are taken away for a very long period of time when they do their "drop sets", and also there's literally no space to walk or move around because there's too many people in your way. It's also a health and safety risk because having people right next to you can mean weights can hit their foot when dropped to the ground, and this is a concern. It would be nice to limit the amount of people sharing a single bench so people have room to breathe and nobody is hogging up the weights unnecessarily.

Fantastic experience: My experience at The Gym Group at the staples corner has been wonderful all the staff are so friendly and helpful, the hygiene is excellent and the PT Staff are amazing, to be honest I have been to several branches but Staples Corner are the best Team ever. Thank you.

Negative experience: Nice gym but trainers are creepy, they come up to you and speak to you, pausing your workout. They ask personal questions and are clearly hitting on you.

Positive experience: Unfortunately there is no sweat wiping tissue

Positive experience: I’ve been training here for just under a year now. And I definitely have mixed feelings, mostly leading positive but some work is definitely needed soon. The positives: (1) There is a wide variety of equipment to make the most out of each muscle group you’re training. From leg machines to the standard arm curl machines. (2) Most the people/and staff are friendly and give off an approachable impression, so don’t feel embarrassed to ask some people for a spot. (3) The gym is quite large, and I haven’t had an issue where it’s too busy when avoiding peak hours (but it does get busy during those peak hours like any commercial gym would) so still plan accordingly and check your app for how many are in the gym. Mixed: (1) There’s alot of young people that go, and I get that it’s a commercials gym and close to Brent Cross, and I also understand some young members are just starting off their journeys, with some being mature enough to respect the rules and attitude of the gym. But some are there with no clue what they’re doing, all while just wasting time on machines and having conversations in larger groups than necessary. Which leads to moments of disruption to the flow of the equipment, and not feeling able to ask to join in on the their sets. But this isn’t a huge negative as this happens in most gyms like I said, and you still have to respect everyone that goes here and the equipment they are using. Which leaves me to my negatives. Negatives: (1) The dumbbell area has become an absolute mess. I don’t know if it’s like it all day now but when i arrive either late evening or early afternoons the dumbbells are everywhere. Maybe it’s the youths, or just people that generally don’t respect others/The gym, but it’s actually getting to the point where on days that I need to incorporate dumbbells I might go somewhere else. The dumbbell rack is all mixed up, weights are left all around the adjustable benches, dumbbells pairs seem to be missing; with some ending up upstairs… I’ve even seen a weight plate once in the male changing room. (2) The material on a lot of benches are cracking, leading to uncomfortable lifting and poor mind to muscle technique. (3) I don’t think there’s enough weight plates at this gym. Similar to the dumbbells being left everywhere machines are just missing plates. Leading to constantly having to walk around to gather them for you sets, just not being able to find the right plate weights as someone else is using them. Every machine should have a decent amount of plates in the vicinity; leg machine area has theirs, bench presses has theirs, squatting racks etc. My advice is to close the gym for a day soon to just get everything rearranged. And If the leaving of weights everywhere is happening during staff hours then they are going to have to get on top of it. Because at the moment this Gym Group is the worst offender of this issue that Ive experienced consistently. I like the gym overall, I get the Job done, but on most days it’s feeling like an extra chore and I don’t enjoy it as much due to these unnecessary/easy to improve things. I know this was a long review but it’s necessary that this reaches staff, and others that are considering joining this gym and might be changing from another that already has similar issues. Its also extra daunting for newcomers that haven't used this equipment before and especially when they can’t even find the weights to use. Edit: seems my review made the right impression as they are closing the gym for a day soon to refresh everything. This is appreciated by the gym community, so thank you!

Positive experience: Great gym. Just missing a seated leg curl machine.

Positive experience: The place needs some attention, and lockers need maintenance. Yanga water only works with monthly subscriptions! Staff on the phone have difficulty understanding the issue around Yanga water availability, lol

Fantastic experience: Had honor to chat with well spoken and decent PT, lady precious and surprised from her energy and her plans about dance classes that she has plan to sort it out as soon as possible. I think she is amazing . good luck dear.

Fantastic experience: PRECIOUS! She is on fire! Thank you for making my first day on the gym my best one! Your induction helped me a lot and the core class was amazing! Hope to see her more often!

Fantastic experience: Gym is always clean and usable! Friendly staff members. Mutasim was super friendly and explained all the tools for body measurements in a professional yet clear way. Super recommended!

Fantastic experience: The energy of this gym is contagious. I don't ever wanna leave

Fantastic experience: I would never leave this gym, incredible atmosphere and amazing people

Negative experience: Gymnis good but group sessions instructors are super loud. I went down not to hear his voice. Can't focus on your training.

Positive experience: It's a big gym, but can be very busy, at times you need to wait for the equipment and at times the wait might be too long so you just use the cardio machines.

Fantastic experience: I work out at the gym, have a very nice place, and have great staff and lots of fun challenges

Negative experience: Not as good as it used to be. Member count is now always 2-3x what it used to be 1-2 years ago and it gets very crowded very easily even off peak times. Also a lot of equipment has degraded and it's not being replaced, like the ez bars, despite the increase in revenue from extra members. I don't think they care about member experience, just trying to get as much members in as possible. Also removed the hygiene cleaning stations and just telling us "bring your own towel". Don't be fooled by the 5 star reviews, staff members try force you to give 5 star reviews and refer them.

Positive experience: There is a good selection of machines and free weights facilities available. However, since they have removed cleaning and hygiene materials from the GYM floor, such as tissue roll and cleaning spray, most machines are quite dirty with sweet from previous users!!! Also, the showers and changing rooms don't get cleane as often as theybused to, they are very uninviting to say the least!

Fantastic experience: Nice well equipped, spacious and clean gym. Free parking is available is a great advantage.

Positive experience: It's a good gym overall offering a lot of equipment. However can get very crowded and also it stinks of sweat, could benefit from better cleaning. However for the price per month can't complain too much

Fantastic experience: Romario honestly needs to be recognised for his hard work! Most PTs I’ve experienced here were friendly to gain you as a client. Romario is genuinely dedicated to his job, it’s uplifting to see someone enjoy their work within this current day and age. He confidently interacts with everyone! His classes are challenging but yet so enjoyable, his motivation and encouragement is immense! He has created such a positive , comfortable gym community, which was never the case previously. Across all gym group locations I attend, he is the only PT I see being present, enjoying and actively engaging to help people.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been here since it’s opened . I must say ROMARIO best PT /team member you have had thus far. The way he engages with people full of life . He is the face of the brand . He has passion in his role . He engages with everyone . Don’t ever leave you have made this place the best place to come too. Always has a smile on his face . Always busy but eager to help .

Fantastic experience: Joined recently was met with a beautiful soul, she really help me and directed me with great advice and time, very professional so if you do end up going get/ask for Markeshia.

Fantastic experience: Amazing service each and everytime the team really go out of their way to provide great customer service especially Markesha so helpful! Appreciate her encouragements too!

Positive experience: It's a good large gym on 2 floors with lots of machines. The only thing that's letting it down is some of the cardio machines are out of service and it's taking a while. But that'd not a surprise as alot of Gyms are like this. Also, there's 3 hours free parking.

Fantastic experience: Great gym love the facilities great staff all around Markeshia is great always has a great smile on her face.

Fantastic experience: I went to the gym group in staple coner and met Markeshia mclean her service was excellent and would go back again.

Fantastic experience: Great local gym with great classes, especially helpful if you are a beginner. Friendly and helpful staff too.

Fantastic experience: Great gym great staff Markeshia is Brilliant very helpful and have lovely smile.

Fantastic experience: The gym is clean and tidy. The staff is accommodating. My personal trainer Rohan is the best in the game he honestly is patient and super professional. He considers your goals and goes above and beyond to help you achieve them. Here’s a picture of me post workout

Fantastic experience: This gym is absolutely amazing. It’s very spacious, clean and everyone is really friendly. I highly recommend Rohan (one of the personal trainers). If it wasn’t for Rohan I would of quit the gym on my first day (due to laziness). Rohan has helped me achieve my goals, lose weight and has always pushed me past my limits. He is incredibly kind, caring and patient (believe me I am no easy client, I am quite a challenge). He has one of the best personalities and I have honestly never met a personal trainer so invested in their clients. Thank you Rohan!!!

Fantastic experience: Very great place. It’s always tidy and the people are amazing!! Shout out to Rohan

Great gym

Fantastic experience: Great gym, lots of weights, squat racks, benches and machines.

Fantastic experience: My favourite gym by far! Amazing staff there who are always willing to help when needed! Recommended if anyone is in the area!

Fantastic experience: I started this gym in February, not gonna lie all the staff are helpful and very friendly, I used to go gym and stopped due to lack of motivation, and since re joining here I met a gym staff name Romario who is very dedicated to his work, he has uplifted my motivation and helped me along the way in many of my daily exercises, I've joined his classes a few some and they are not as easy as it looks, I struggled a few times but with consistency am getting better.. I advise anyone who wants to change there way of thinking, not happy with the way you look now is the time to join, its never to late...

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Romario highly enough! As a personal trainer, he is truly exceptional—not only in his expert knowledge and dedication but also in his ability to motivate and inspire. Romario has an incredible talent for making everyone feel like they can achieve their fitness goals, no matter their starting point. He's not just a trainer; he's a true motivator who cheers you on every step of the way. His positive energy is infectious, and it resonates throughout our gym, creating a supportive and encouraging environment for all. If you’re looking for someone to guide you, push you, and celebrate with you as you reach your fitness milestones, Romario is your guy!

Negative experience: I was at this gym for 5 months till I had enough. I felt unsafe inside and outside of the gym. Incidents of fights, loads of shouting even when I’m at the gym. Usually gyms have music nope people wouldn’t share equipment to the point there wasn’t any “adults” just kids who look like adults.. My car tired was almost punctured because someone left a glass bottle behind the wheel. Literally the parking lot. So this gym is pretty rough… The equipment is okay but people never clean after themselves so theres always loads of sweat left behind. People ignore you when you want to use an equipment. They some how leave their stuff there a plastic bottle means your name is on it? Staff do “try” to help but there is always so many issues with the equipment. As well as they are always extremely busy or just ignore you while they are putting equipment away. The disabled lift always seem to break often. The disabled showers were actually disgusting as the shower head had faeces on it. Usually it’s never cleaned often either way. This is a gym though, unfortunately people treat it like it’s their home. Truly disgusting and they have no consideration for other people. First gym and last never again.

Negative experience: I have been doing workouts in many gyms, even The Gym Group in Wood Green, which is smaller gym, but much more organised with frendly and "doing something" staff. In this gym I have a feeling, that the staff members are hiding somewhere, I can not see them when is needed. In this gym personal culture is non-exist. Most of people are not respectful to place and other people. All equipment is everywhere, 80% of people not put back what they using and staff members not doing nothing with that. When I asked staff member where I can find the barbell squat pad, he tell me that is better if I buy my own one and will be bringing it with me. This is a basic equipment in the gym and is not expensive, so should be few. Im paying for a gym and expecting to have all basic equipment in this place. So I understood, I should bring my own equipment to the gym. There is not enough light weight dumbbells like 8kg-14kg. Is just 2 pairs of each weight and always in use, so gym should buy more of them, as more people using light weight that heavy weight and those are too many.. Also that is the most dirty gym I ever used. Unfortunately I dont have any choice and need to use this gym in this area.

Fantastic experience: That gym is amazing. The space is very spacious and well organized, even when there are many people at training you don't feel crowded. Also, the free 3-hour parking is excellent. The toilets are clean and there is a lot of storage lockers. The music is at a good volume without being disturbing. I like coming to train here. The price is competitive. Recommend

Negative experience: Gents toilet seat has been missing for at least a few weeks Other toilet had no toilet roll, There was feces all up the stairs that unsuspecting people were treading in & many of the lockers latch mechanisms are damaged & unable to put a lock through. Really disappointed considering its such a good sized gym with plenty of equipment

Fantastic experience: Beautiful gym with great staff with Rohan and mutasim very helpful and alwaysgiving nice vibes

Fantastic experience: Love the equipment and the staff are amazing, always helpful and supportive of everyone in the gym ! I would 100% recommend this gym to everyone!

Fantastic experience: The gym is great and friendly environment and the PT Romaril is always cheerful and welcoming and always say hi whenever he sees me in the gym.

Fantastic experience: Amazing staff, great facilities and good community in the gym

Fantastic experience: I had a great introduction to the gym with Romario. He very helpful and attentive. Definitely would recommend!!
