Bannatyne Health Club Ayr

Fantastic experience: Great sauna and steam room Facilities. Gym is friendly and never crowded so makes for a positive atmosphere and environment. Staff are friendly and helpful

Fantastic experience: I found this place to train while we were there for the golf. The facility is excellent, with sauna, pool, so much gym equipment and even Starbucks for coffee downstairs. You need to do a lot of registration for a casual visit and pay minimum £15 casual visit. I found the manager sales to be excellent on customer service and helpful

Positive experience: Decent sauna and swimming pool. Never used gym as was only visiting Ayr. Bit complicated registration process for one visit but was worth it. Nice place to wind down.

Positive experience: The machines and weights area is modern with a good selection of equipment. The spa area however is in dire need of maintenance! The steam room has no grouting amongst the tiles leaving sharp corners exposed and likely contributing to the stale smell from trapped water. The sauna with splintered and worn out timbers would appreciate a facelift. More importantly though it needs a decent deep clean, litter under benches left there for weeks!

Negative experience: Its ok because the only place in town with a spa otherwise 50% people would leave. Inspite of great cleaners it smells of stale sweat on other side of cafe doors. Echoing shouting teachers at swim lessons spoil adult pool & spa area 3.30 -7pm. Steam room rarely has steam. Insecure brick walls in steam rooms accident waiting to happen. Members informed Craig months ago but he turns a deaf ear. Craig seems interested in running the cafe more than the actual health club facilities. Pool full of kids till 5pm weekend 7pm midweek. It closes too early.Sat/Sun at 7.30pm members hounded out by inaudibly LOUD staff tannoy system. The steam & sauna room glass only cleaned with disinfectant but inside walls & seats merely hosed down. If plan a late spa beware urine smell. It could be made welcoming with essential oils. Good points free hair dryer changing rooms kept clean by staff. All classes good held by friendly staff. Change room has constant rap noise piped in suited for teens nothing for discerning musical taste. Small adjustments can turn it around starting with club manager being more approachable and less ego driven concerning constructive comments from others.

Fantastic experience: Staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The facilities are well maintained and clean in all the areas I was present during my visit. Love coming to the spa especially. Very relaxing, the steam room is my personal favorite.

Negative experience: Steam room doesn't work right Just smells moldy, like a wet damp room. Mentioned it to the manager a couple of times for him to just laugh and say he's had complaments form the older customers saying it's a better temperature lol, it's broken it doesn't work right. I would avoid this place, £65 a month for broken equipment with no chance of them fixing it.

Negative experience: Way over priced and rude staff

Fantastic experience: Really enjoy the atmosphere and friendliness of the gym

Fantastic experience: Great way to get fit and friendly staff

Positive experience: Good facilities, Nice and clean. But the only downside to this gym is some of the staff! Some of them are very rude!! Ive noticed on numerous occasions that when the circuit class is on in the gym, the instructor taking it, sits on her backside, face in her phone, not giving out any encouragement which i find unprofessional. Also these rude staff members make you feel out of place, and i have also heard a couple of them mocking some of the members behind their backs!! Not all of the staff are like this, but in the 2 years of me being a member, myself and a number of other members have noticed the club going downhill. I hope the new General Manager can get this club back on track and make it a nice and friendly place to train.

Fantastic experience: Excellent facilities and staff

Fantastic experience: I joined in April of this year. The pool is great; two of the four walls are glass i.e. windows to the outside. Classes are fun (some are really hard but almost everyone is welcoming). I have lost 12 pounds. Best thing I have done in years.
