Positive experience: Good amount of equipment an machinery aswell as various spaces for a wide range of activities. Though staff can be rude and or challenging in some aspects. Relatively good experience overall .

Fantastic experience: Great place with friendly staff

Negative experience: Absolutely appalled by this staff member. He wouldn’t allow my poorly 5 year old to use the toilets and she was almost pooping. I had to order an Uber to go home and whilst waiting he allowed 2 young scantily clad ladies use the facilities, that had no memberships either!

Fantastic experience: Situated in Stanley park, this sports centre boasts numerous activities and sports.

Positive experience: Staff always seem helpful. High ropes was a hit with the kids. They loved it. Staff even allowed extra time for them as it wasn't busy and made up some games for them to do on it. Really pleasent atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: Good service

Positive experience: Really nice well equipped sports centre. The bouldering is good, interesting sets. It could use some music, but otherwise I had a good time.

Fantastic experience: Amazing facilities. I do amateur boxing every night and use the changing rooms, they have everything you need including hair dryers! The gym upstairs also has everything you need, including the Egym if your not sure what machines to use, it's a full body workout in 2 rounds! Not one of them gyms where you feel uncomfortable .. due to certain types of people coming with full makeup and hair (if you know you know haha) it's a really friendly gym and staff are always there to help.

Positive experience: Popped in for a coffee unfortunately it was out of a machine behind reception. Won't be doing that again aarrggg

Positive experience: Great gym only downside are those that insist on wetting the surfaces with antibacterial spray AFTER they've used the machine, so fed up of sitting on a wet seat and trying to hold wet handles, it's annoying and unnecessary, if you're bothered about germs disinfectant the damn machine before YOU get on it, not the next person

Positive experience: Top facilities and staff

Fantastic experience: Excellent football training on a Sunday morning

Negative experience: Feels like deaths waiting room bad choice of equipment. Took down viable equipment to put a punch bag up

Negative experience: They have just spent, god knows how much on new front doors for the centre. Unfortunately playing badminton in the main hall is pathetic!! Not only is there multiple coloured lines on the floor, making it very difficult to establish the courts, people have also stuck tapes down all over the floor, making it almost impossible to recognise the size of the court, and also the tapes are a health and safety issue, plus the dividing curtains are a lot to be desired, the bottom half of one curtain been ripped off, making it inadequate!! July, they have just finished repainting the main hall floor, there are more different coloured lines now than before, it looks like a multicoloured control station, not knowing which line to choose, with a high gloss shine too boot!! Oh and the new curtains are once again ripped!!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic place for all the family and children loads of things to do to keep them occupied

Fantastic experience: Running on the track and then showering in the main building!!

Negative experience: Nobody ever answers the phone! Answer machine refers you to the website which doesn't tell you when the climbing wall is open.

Fantastic experience: Been going here every Wednesday to play badminton, I just wish you could see the court, not good if you're colour blind apart from that great place staff are great everything's great

Fantastic experience: Referred to Active Blackpool by MSK on Monday, contacted on Wednesday, assessment appointment following Tuesday (yesterday). I was impressed with the speed of the process.

Fantastic experience: Cool

Positive experience: Out of all the gyms in the area, I would place this somewhere in the middle with gyms like DW and Bannatynes coming out on top. That doesn't mean to say it's a bad gym, not at all. Considering the current circumstances, they're quite laid back. No temperature checks, no mandatory cleaning and no masks makes everything easy and more accessible in comparison with other gyms. There's a decent selection of weight machines to suit all needs and goals along with knowledgeable instructors. As a trainee PT, it's handy to have the advice if I need it. The only area they fall short is in terms of customer service. You see, in other gyms I have visited, instructors make an effort to connect with customers. For example, at Palatine Leisure Centre, instructors will approach customers, ask how they're doing, check up on their programs, etc. Even if participants weren't regulars, instructors still made an effort to break the ice anyways. At Blackpool sports centre, this element seems to be vacant. This doesn't mean instructors need to pester customers by any means, but a simple hello, how's everything going goes along way in maintaining customer satisfaction. Improve this and the gym would be worth 5 stars. But overall, great venue, which meets initial requirements.

Positive experience: Good facilities, I'm here all the time... But the bouldering room needs so much more attention. The amount of regular boulderers that pay into the place, but the routes are never changed! Such a community has gathered around the place, but the lack of new problems to solve is seriously effecting the potential of customers. If anyone from the centre is reading, have a look at the figures for the bouldering room for two weeks after it's changed. It's always the same, packed, and slowly dwindling as the months go by between change overs.

Positive experience: Fine but could do with guidance maps to find way around for visitors to events. Confusing to those not used to visiting

Positive experience: Leave your car at home
