The Gym Group London Sydenham: Opinions
Negative experience: Good equipment, but badly managed as poor cleaning and hygiene facilities.
Fantastic experience: Great gym and good equipment. Kelli and Paul great managers
Fantastic experience: Nice budget-friendly gym. There's space even in peak times
Fantastic experience: Good range of equipment, never too busy.
Positive experience: The second stairmaster has been broken for ages. Treadmills also seem to be falling apart. Classes take up so much space and are always scheduled within peak hours which is very annoying.
Hi there! Thank you for your review. Our team works with our suppliers to ensure all the equipment is safe to use and in the best conditions. We recognise that sometimes it can take a little longer due to various factors, but rest assured that we are working hard with our suppliers to have all the equipment fully working as soon as possible. Thank you again for your review. We will use this to further improve the experience in our gyms.
Fantastic experience: Well maintained, clean, excellent range of weights and equipment, including multiples of the popular stuff. Lots of space to work. Friendly staff. I signed up quickly and easily using my phone and the screen at the entrance and was ready to train within 10 minutes.
Positive experience: I can say that it's good , but not enough machine, I waited a long time to use one of them

Fantastic experience: Spot on, price, facility and focus on fitness
Fantastic experience: Trey the gym manager was covering the body conditioning class it was amazing he pushed each and every single One of us which i definitely needed he motivated me for the duration of the class trey big up yourself always thank you
Negative experience: Unfortunately, my subscription was for various cardio equipment, but I was surprised that the gym did not contain cardio equipment, only two bikes!! Also, the ventilation is very poor, the hall is crowded, the number of people is terrible, I had a sore throat and a cold on the second day I went because there is no good and pure air flow, and there are no tools for cleaning and sterilizing the devices.!! Unfortunately, I am sad to pay the annual subscription and I did not really benefit.
Hi there, thank you for your feedback.
Negative experience: Staff are always on their phone and wearing headphones when on shift. Which is not the case in the 4 other gym groups I have been a member of. Most unfriendly and rude gym staff. Don’t understand how it is protocol that you can take equipment from members using it because “it’s needed for the class”. Not even asking how many sets I have left. Just saying it needs to be taken.
We thank you for the time you have taken in reviewing us, and value your feedback. We'll ensure that the team at The Gym Group London Sydenham is made aware of your thoughts.
Fantastic experience: Never felt the need to leave a review ever but Trey really deserved a massive thank you! I lost my locker key and Trey went above and beyond to help me get back into the locker to get all my things. He was so helpful and honestly am so grateful!
Fantastic experience: I’m very new to this gym and like most people I believe, I was a little nervous going. I wasn’t 100% sure how to use the machines and if I was doing them correctly. 2 weeks on, and I love going. The staff I’ve met are very friendly. I booked an induction and was shown how to use the machines. The people working out in there I’ve noticed so far are also friendly and polite. I’d definitely recommend this gym to anyone thinking of starting off. Hopefully your get the same experience as me!
Fantastic experience: Good enough equipment, friendly staff Jordan specifically, and all around good experience.
Fantastic experience: Jordan helped me out in the gym, he’s a great PT.
Fantastic experience: Training with Jordan has really helped me to become more confident in the gym and in my appearance
Fantastic experience: Jordan is quality coach, highly recommend
Fantastic experience: Jordan helped me with some calisthenics exercises today
Fantastic experience: I have been to many gyms and The Gym Sydenham is the first time I have felt a nice sense of community and support. The PTs are always on hand to help especially if you’re trying new machines or new to the gym and it’s always been a comfortable environment. Shout out to Jude and Trey for all your help!
Fantastic experience: Clean spacious environment with friendly staff
Positive experience: Great gym with a good community, a wide range of equipment and all areas are regularly cleaned.

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Lots of variety of equipment and friendly, helpful staff.
Fantastic experience: the friendliest ‘thegym’ i’ve been to- the community here is unmatched; lovely PT’s like Jordan and Dejaun who don’t hesitate in offering advice/tips. The equipment is new and clean, the members are all encouraging of everyone’s progress, altogether a wonderful experience being a member here!!
Fantastic experience: Good gym, and really good staff
Fantastic experience: Very good job very good atmosphere. Staff are great assistance. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Really good gym, good new manager
Fantastic experience: I absolutely enjoy using the Gym in Sydenham the staff are friendly and accommodating
Fantastic experience: I usually attend at night when there's less people, but I've recently switched to days and I've been pleasantly surprised that there's enough equipment for ne to do my usual sessions without having to wait
Fantastic experience: Great place, clean and not too full. Staff are helpful and welcoming if needed. Showers nice and clean and lots of space to get ready.
Fantastic experience: I have been attending the gym in Sydenham for a number of years. Great trainers and great facilities.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym. Staff welcoming and friendly.
Positive experience: Spacious gym with 2 floors and decent, well-maintained equipment. I've been a member for a couple of months now and, while it took me a while to get booked in for an induction (due to issues with the app) my experience so-far has been good. It's a decent gym, so it does get busy quite often. But, if you prefer having more chill workouts and don't want to have to adapt them due to most of the machines being busy, I'd recommend avoiding evening times as that's when everyone and their nana like to get their workout in. The only negative thing I could say about my experience at this gym is that I didn't appreciate that the new manager, on one occasion, stared at me whenever he walked by and kept watching me like a hawk while I warmed up and then, when I was using one of the machines, talked about me to one of the other members of staff as if I wasn't within ear shot before approaching me directly to ask whatever he wanted to ask regarding my membership.. that was awkward and uncomfortable and not how you appropriately deal with a query towards a customer. Apart from that, the members of staff have been friendly and helpful. Overall, I'd recommend this gym if you're local to the area and want a gym that has decent equipment and facilities, all at an affordable rate.

Fantastic experience: Corina showed me round and introduced me to the gym. She was really friendly and the gym is well kitted out, spacious and clean. Will be back.
Fantastic experience: Paul was very helpful when I had a billing issue
Negative experience: How can we clean equipments? Most unhygienic gym company in the UK. Always use excuses to reduce the amount of tissues to not provide tissues.
Hi, hope you are well. Robust cleaning regimes are still in place and we continue to pump in 100% fresh air ventilation, day and night, we clean on a daily basis, including cleaning of all equipment and gym facilities with anti-viral products. We encourage members to bring in a sweat towel to use after they have used a piece of equipment. Having cleaning stations has resulted in a significant increase in the amount of paper waster and we are focussed on minimising our waste as part of our commitment to Net-Zero. We are proud to be the very first Carbon Neutral Gym Chain in the UK. This is just a part of our efforts, for example we are also taking steps to reduce the amount of single use plastics in our vending machines. We thank you for the time you have taken in reviewing us, and value your feedback. We'll ensure that the team at The Gym Group London Sydenham is made aware of your thoughts.
Positive experience: I’ve been going to this gym for a couple years. There’s not been much improvement since it opened.The layout is the same. There’s no new equipment. Some machines are not maintained properly. The dumbbells only go up to 40kg unlike other gyms in the area have 50kg dumbbells. Every weekday from 4pm - 8pm the gym is packed with groups of 2-3 per bench. The gym needs a change soon.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, best environment for training , community feel
Negative experience: Some rude staff, not all but some. You pay and now they’re increasing the fee, to stand and wait for machines. Too packed and no staff to really make people scrolling on their phones hogging machines move, or to stop teenagers coming in packs of 5 play fighting and taking up space
