PureGym Bedford Heights

Positive experience: Not a bad gym but super small. Avoid rush hour if you like free weights!

Fantastic experience: Lydia was very good , the pump classes was very intense but engaging, really good workout loved it

Fantastic experience: Best classes ! Love Lydia’s energy

Fantastic experience: The best gym with the most supportive and amazing managers. Always clean and tidy. Plenty of blue towel.

Fantastic experience: Love the classes, so many options at lunch time and in the evenings- from LBT to Pump to circuits! You feel like you are in a community. Love the PT’s and instructors! The culture of the gym is great Made me keep my consistency, made me confident!

Fantastic experience: Great gym and very well priced!

Fantastic experience: Excelente GYM, big place, good staff

Positive experience: Ok equipment

Negative experience: Way too small for the area. Increased the price so I can't use it even though I'm a 'plus' member so I don't go.

Fantastic experience: Connell’s spin classes are great!

Fantastic experience: Connell does and A1 spin class. ⭐️

Fantastic experience: We really enjoy Connell's spin classes. Not only are they fun, the tracks are awesome and he motivates his class to really work and push themselves.

Fantastic experience: Friday night boot camp with Jez is a proper military fitness workout for all abilities!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic spin classes with Connel. Love the fact he changes the music and routine regularly. Really inspiring classes that gets me sweating.

Positive experience: Good atmosphere

Negative experience: Classes by instructors are great but 30 minute classes are just not long enough or worth it. By the time the instructors take you through a warm up and cool down, you only work out for 20 minutes. Bring back 45 minute classes.

Fantastic experience: Good gym, quite spacious with lots of equipment to be used, never overcrowded and you don’t usually have to wait to use the kit.

Negative experience: Zero gym etiquette. ZERO!!! I joined rather reluctantly as I know the calibre of people in this gym. Gym equipment hasn't changed much in years . Zero rules adhered to. Zero consideration for others. Literally, everyone sits on a machine and wastes time on their phones. People dont know how to share after their set and hog machines. No one re-racks their weights!!!! There should be a 3 Strike Rule. PUT PLATES AND WEIGHTS BACK. . . DONT BE A BELL END. Constantly stripping plates of bars after other people have used them. Loads of teenagers in groups of 6+ pissing about trying to impress friends. Crocs in the gym??? Dust on the weights rack. No free WiFi (as far as I know) Everything is now on an app, but you can use a pin code if you prefer, which is good. Not interested in classes or having private PT sessions, I've observed a couple in their PT sessions, and they're barely attentive or engaging with their clients, to say the least. Vending machines still selling sugary snacks This is a beginners gym... If you want a good gym in Bedford, I suggest Simply Gym as a good all rounder.

Positive experience: It's pretty big but pretty busy a lot, not my favourite PureGym. Wish there were more machines

Negative experience: Beware. If you pay for one month access, you will find that you have inadvertently signed up for an ongoing direct debit.

Positive experience: Some classes required more room for the members.I can see another 10 available spaces in the app. But the studio was full of people, and wasn’t able to join. I have booked the class from yesterday. Hydro massage beds are not always cleaned after using.

Positive experience: Great view over surrounding Bedford from the running machines. Good stock of new equipment. Lots of space. Enjoyed my time

Fantastic experience: Very nice and spacious gym. Plenty of kit

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere

Fantastic experience: My gym since 2016 and love the staff and all the classes. :)

Fantastic experience: Only thing is the weighing machine in the men’s changing room does not print atm

Fantastic experience: I have always struggled to find a good spin class since leaving David Lloyd, tried PureGym Kingston before and it was meh! So came tried a spin class at Bedford Heights on my lunch break and it was very very good! Katrina Hardy was amazing and the music was would thoroughly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Great gym and great value !

Fantastic experience: I love Kat’s classes!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Michael’s classes 3 times a week for the last few months & I'm really noticing my body changing & getting fitter! Great instructor & the strength training for me whilst coping with perimenopause is helping so much…..

Fantastic experience: Kat is the best and her classes are amazing! Really makes you work hard and makes sure that your form is perfect while making it all fun!

Fantastic experience: Kat’s classes are the best, she’s amazing! Wish I could go to all her classes

Positive experience: Went on a Sunday around 4:30pm. Free parking outside, not sure how long it lasts, but mine was fine for around an hour. Entrance was a little different, there's a cycling room, a studio and changing rooms on the ground floor, a just a whole bunch of machines upstairs. It's bigger than Puregym Stevenage, the only thing I didn't have fun with was the moist floors and mouldy smell in the showers. Otherwise okay

Fantastic experience: Good size gym,not so busy,have car park and friendly staff.

Negative experience: Turned up at my 24vgour unstaffed gym to find it is closed, I was inbrhe gym yesterday no notice no warning just closed. Given the fact the gym is 24 gour unstaffed why is it closed, our we refunded for the days it is closed?

Positive experience: Clean, tidy, not too busy, good gym

Fantastic experience: We made use of the studio that is available there! As Dancers it has a great size, mirrors and floor. We try to train there as often as possible. The gym itself also has a lot of equipment on offer, which helps with the variety of work out to be done. A very spacious gym that meets all needs. With that bring on the next session!

Negative experience: Worse gym in Bedford if I could do 0 stars I would nothing works the equipment broken now no hot water they should close it down it needs a refurbish an insult to members going in there now it’s being vandalised wake up head office something needs doing!!

Fantastic experience: Attended kat Hardy step class yesterday, felt really welcome by Kat and all the others taking part Was not sure what to expect as it was my 1st time to go but wow, it meet all my expectations and more it was enjoyable and fun, differently be coming back. Thanks you

Fantastic experience: Yesterday and today did a spin class with Tyler. She is new to this gym and I can tell you these classes were incredible hard work but worth it especially when she comes around and adjusts your resistance pushes you to your limits I will definitely attend more of her classes in the future all the best to her

Negative experience: Equipment broken frequently. Constant issues, such as no hot water, out of order toilets. Whenever I go to this puregym, there are always issues. Now there is going to be no hot water for 6 weeks.

Negative experience: I enjoy working out every weekend in Bedford site and I love listening my podcasts... but today on 17th Sept around 1pm the gym music is so loud that struggle to hear my podcast.. it was extremely disturbing to focus and workout that I got a headache. The present gym staff had no control over volume, he said. 95% people in the gym wear their own airpods.. not sure why are we forced to hear the gym music!!

Negative experience: Equipment broken frequently. Constant issues, such as no hot water, out of order toilets, broken hand dryer. Whenever I go to this puregym, there are always issues. Now there is going to be no hot water for 6 weeks (which is bound to be more) and no reduction in monthly gym price. This is unnacceptable and I would not reccomend.

Fantastic experience: Great facilities, friendly staff and atmosphere, great classes and equipment. All for a very reasonable cost. Brilliant.

Fantastic experience: Great gym with a brilliant range of equipment

Fantastic experience: Good gym good location

Negative experience: In comparison to other PureGyms I've been to this one isn't the best. Even though there's a lot of space on ground level most of the weights, treadmills etc are on the first floor making it feel extra cramped when it's busy. There aren’t enough machines/ attachments and some of the equipment is showing signs of wear and tear but nothing has been done to fix/repair them plus the hand dryer in the men's changing room has been out of order for a while now. I can't help but feel as though there is less attention to detail because it's a major brand name and chain.

Fantastic experience: Nice and cool, big variety of workout machines

Positive experience: Shower timer too short and water not hot enough otherwise 5 star

Positive experience: Good gym. Sometimes too busy, but everything is working

Negative experience: One flat bench press in the gym is pathetic. No incline or decline bench either. I couldn’t get anything especially at peak times. The air conditioning doesn’t work properly especially in summer is very hot in this gym.

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy this gym. It can be crowded at times but it's expected

Negative experience: I’ve been going to this gym for 6/7 years but unfortunately recently cancelled my membership. Has been going downhill for a while. Staff changes all the time (there are a few good ones) they are constantly cutting classes down, equipment is all over the place or just missing. They over fill the classes they do have and have everyone packed in so tightly you don’t have the space to do movements. A few weeks the stereos have been broke in the studio, bikes take forever to be fixed. Such a shame as used to really like this gym but have to go somewhere else.

Fantastic experience: A great gym and as a wheelchair user this is a good place to train. Very friendly and helpful staff, very clean .

Fantastic experience: No bells and whistles, but exactly what you need. Always clean and never too busy

Positive experience: Good facilities. Bit crowded with lot of equipment, don't want to make it sound bad especially when you don't have to wait for a machine to be free. Place could do with bit more space.

Fantastic experience: Staff are fantastic. Always a friendly atmosphere. You can start a friendly chat with anyone and feel comfortable. Best gym around for sure

Fantastic experience: I have really had a wonderful experience with the gym open all day and the classes are amazing the reason I am giving a 5 star is because of Susan her Dance classes are to die for we had to work out in a very unique fun way if only we could have more of these especially in the evenings she is an amazing person and I would definitely recommend you to join her classes she’s the best she is awesome!!!!

Positive experience: Good gym but showers not the best. Changing room often cold. Lockers can be hit n miss if they lock or not. Many need a bit of maintenance

Fantastic experience: Very good facilities and classes .safe and supervised and friendly gym .

Positive experience: Parking is good, equipment is good the treadmill can do with an upgrade compared to other PureGyms I have been to. The shower have a large gap at the opening that I think it’s unhygienic to be taking a shower and could feel the person Next door splattering his shower to your feet

Positive experience: Good gym, plenty of equipment

Positive experience: Great space. I look forward to my gym time there.

Negative experience: Very few toilets and unstaffed makes it worse Visited few times and found every toilet DIRTY. BEST TO GO TO THE NEW GYM

Positive experience: Part used as a covid vaccination center

Positive experience: Some of the machines are a bit ancient, the gyms area is huge but badly managed with a lot of space going spare and the weights area made very compact. This compactness means there are limited numbers of machines present but that's not too bad. The calf press is so stiff it's interesting to use it. And some other machines also suffer from this but that is the standout worst one. The place needs a bit more cleaning of the actual machines and gym areas as I only ever see the enormous lobby being cleaned. As always PureGym is a PureGym, it is okay and you get what you pay for. Aside from the machines needing some love and the limited number of certain machines it's okay hence 3 stars.

Negative experience: Lol, bad.

Negative experience: Just a normal gym, equipment really needs fixing as half of the treadmills do not function correctly. Also, no staff on duty and no cleaners.

Fantastic experience: Attended for Moderna Booster jab! Excellent management and friendly welcome !

Fantastic experience: Grate place fo training..recomend..

Fantastic experience: A good clean and well looked after gym. Felt happy and safe working out there after covid.

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy Junior’s classes. He keeps you motivated and encourages you to challenge yourself. His classes have pushed me out of my comfort zone. His classes are always full so make sure you pre book it especially on Saturdays. He has an amazing energy and vibe. Love the music he plays(although I wish he played more rap music ..) I would recommend to anyone whatever their levels of fitness to try the class with Junior Seri.

Negative experience: Very minimal and basic equipment

Positive experience: Great site to do your exercises and are able to find most of the equipment needed. However, staff's customer service skills are very poor!

Fantastic experience: Since the gym has been taken over by a new manager, thing seem to be running alot more smoothly on a day to day basis. Equipment is being repaired alot faster than under the old management, which is obviously really good. All the staff are friendly and approachable, which gives the gym a good atmosphere and nice environment to work out in. Hopefully under the new management the gym will improve, as it was in rather bad disrepair under the old manager. We've already started to see some improvements

Positive experience: Good facilities. Clean washroom/locker room. Friendly staff.

Fantastic experience: Legs bums and tums with Junior, went as a newbie, was great! Clean, enjoyable, friendly people in the class

Fantastic experience: £14 per month for unsocial hours, free parking, open 24hrs, good amount of equipment for all types of levels. I went at 5.30am and got on all the equipment which I wanted. For that price, it’s value for money.

Positive experience: Easy parking, well staffed, comfortable, quick. Boring corporate type place...but it got the job done.

Fantastic experience: Was there with my 10 year old son for his 1st covid vaccination. As usual the staff run the place efficiently and without rush

Negative experience: Dire gym, spend more time unraveling and racking weights in order to get the plates you need, dumbbells are never in the right location. Not sure what all the staff do other than wander around rather than maintain the equipment and weights.

Positive experience: Went here for an NHS blood test and they were very efficient with someone on the door asking if you were there for a blood test or a COVID jab, then directing you to the relevant seating area. Quick and easy, in and out really simple!

Fantastic experience: Excellent so dedicated to their job.and so dedicated and friendly.

Fantastic experience: Did not use gym. Went to have blood test and 4th covid injection. Very impressed with service, quick clean and very helpful staff/volunteers.

Fantastic experience: Visited for child’s vaccination. Was superb in every way. Professionals at making kids welcome and ok about being nervous. Well done

Negative experience: Personal trainer does not use the mashine but have blok way to use for someone else

Fantastic experience: Very good

Positive experience: Nice n beautiful

Fantastic experience: Went for covid booster literally in and out

Fantastic experience: I hate gyms, hate everything about them even the dust. But friendly staff and very well equipped gym. I like this gym. But don't tell anyone

Negative experience: Just to cramped to much equipment together, parking space are small bearly can fit a car

Positive experience: Is a great place to go, I particularly went there to update my vaccination records which is yet to be updated in my NHS health records

Fantastic experience: Been a long time since been to the gym very quiet at 1am loved it

Positive experience: Good clean facility. Unfortunate and frustrating when there’s only 1 Olympic platform and someone is doing shrugs on it for 45minutes. Happened on more than 1 occasion…

Negative experience: The good thing is it's clean. But the equipment is ancient and this place is in desperate need of a re-fit. I think I'll stick to my current gym.

Positive experience: Decent place, clean and friendly, can get very busy at times but there is normally a machine for you.

Positive experience: Much better recently with the new showers and cleaner loos.

Positive experience: It was nice went there for my son's vaccination

Fantastic experience: Great gym friendly staff. Shame people keep their own locker. Can be hard to find a locker that is clean and working. Classes are great but the timetable changes too often.

Fantastic experience: Unfortunately didn't go for work out went for booster covid vaccination . Great parking friendly professional even offered water and biscuits whilst waiting the required 15min,after vaccination .For those who haven't taken up the offer please do it for for those you love and those that love you.
