Fantastic experience: Went for the first time today was feeling very nervous as its been a while since I've entered a gym after having 2 kids, couldn't have felt more at ease from the help of Leah and Marie. The gym was immaculate and the staff so friendly, they are also opening a women's only area which is great. Recommend this gym!

It’s great to hear you have eased back into the gym and are enjoy using the gym overall! Keep up the great work! Thanks, PureGym
Negative experience: Avoid this venue. So called upgrade is a retrograde move to 1970's style segregation. Women only areas and an atmosphere of us and them has started to be nurtured and pervades this once inclusive establishment. Rember the day's when ladies weren't welcome at the bar or on the "Billiard table '? Congratulations PureGym for recreating that bygone era.
Fantastic experience: Always a decent gym bit upside down as there in the middle of renovations but still a great gym friendly staff and all round good environment.

Hi Leanne. Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we always appreciate and take on board member feedback. We would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused. We would like to assure you that we are reviewing feedback and will ensure this is addressed in club. Staff do undertake regular maintenance checks and work hard with our equipment providers to ensure that our equipment is fixed as soon as possible, if any should be broken. We are equally as disappointed when this happens and sometimes need to wait on engineers but will have all equipment in full working order as soon as is safely possible. If you have any concerns about equipment, please notify staff on site as soon as you can. Thanks, PureGym
Fantastic experience: Super friendly, clean and great availability of equipment. Classes are friendly and not daunting. Struggling with going to the gym alone the staff have made me feel welcome and at ease

Positive experience: Been using this for a while now. There is always a waiting time for cables otherwise its a great gym with variety of equipments to play with.
Fantastic experience: Favourite gym of all time. Obviously as its new gym so the busy hours are super busy but the fact it has so much equipment and the gym is so massive, there is still room for everyone. It’s got literally every equipment you can imagine. Such a welcoming gym, PTs on duty for a lot of the hours of the day and they’re all extremely supportive. The public that attend the gym are very accommodating as-well. I can understand gyms can be quite intimidating to most but everyone seems really kind and generous with their suggestions or help. The sauna is such a deluxe bonus which I’ve been using a lot. Changing rooms are super clean and the equipment is all brand new and hi-tech. Love it! Would recommend to anyone. (Bring a padlock for the lockers)!
Fantastic experience: Loved the Pilates class! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Love this gym and it feels like home already, but PLEASE add hooks in the men’s shower cubicles so we can hang our clothes / towels up without getting them wet There’s currently nowhere to put my clothes while I’m showering that is safe from water and would-be thiefs Currently I have to put a couple things on the small soap rack and the rest of my things outside the shower cubicle… which makes it awkward because I have to open the shower door to get my clothes Just a couple of hooks quite high on the walls of each cubicle would be perfect - it would really be awesome Cheers PureGym, David
Negative experience: If I could leave 0 stars I would, the gym itself is great but this is cancelled out entirely because of the overwhelming amount of people where it’s impossible to move either waiting for that new JD gym to open or I might go to the gym group
Hi Kyle. Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we always appreciate and take on board member feedback. We would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused. We’re afraid it's true, our gyms simply are very popular and so can become busy especially at peak times, but this does fluctuate throughout the day and from day to day. Members can also use the members area via the PureGym app or website, to see how many people are in the gym. Thanks, PureGym
Negative experience: In the men's changing room, there is a tap that has only one adjustment option, it sprays like a pressure washer, so after washing your hands, you are definitely all wet. To wash your hands with soap, I recommend bringing it from home, because there is a small chance that the soap container will be full up.
Hi Adrian. Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we always appreciate and take on board member feedback. We would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused. We would like to assure you that we are reviewing feedback and will ensure this is addressed in club. Thanks, PureGym
Negative experience: they blocked my access to the gym I paid for, now they blocked it because of my fault because their system doesn't work and I had access, it's my fault, their machines don't work and it's still my fault I do not recommend this gym ! I think they have some mental problem and think they are better than a normal person I do not recommend this gym to anyone JD gym will be opened soon in the area. I think it will be much better than what is here. Such gyms should be closed and those who run them should never have contact with people.

Thanks, PureGym
Negative experience: Member of staff who gave me a class was very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. I decided the gym wasn't for me though as it was too over crowded unfortunately at a time of the evening you wouldn't expect it to be. This meant I couldn't get to use the equipment I wanted to and in particular the free weights and benches.
Hi Nin Nin. Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we always appreciate and take on board member feedback. We would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love Sophie’s Spin class on a Monday and Wednesday AM. I went from absolutely hating spin to really enjoying it. Sophie is brilliant and gives you plenty of motivation, coaching tips and is also super helpful for those who have never done it before. Really recommend her class so thank you Sophie!

Fantastic experience: The only gym I've lasted more than 3 months at. Now been a member for 8 years. Large and spacious with good quality equipment. The only negative is it's not as clean as it used to be.

Thanks, PureGym
Negative experience: This gym has an abundance of good equipment. Having been a competitive athlete fo 20 years and a gym owner myself. I'd be surprised if 50% ot the patrons do any exesise correctly. I've found a severe lack of gym etiquette. Customers sit on apparatus between sets on their damn smart phones for extended periods,while others are forced to use alternative equipment disrupting their routines.
Hi Dennis. Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we always appreciate and take on board member feedback. Unfortunately, we are unable to monitor the usage of phones in our gyms, however if people are sitting on equipment I would strongly advise approaching a member of staff on the floor who will be able to help further. We apologise for any inconvenience. Thanks, PureGym
Positive experience: As a PureGym User for many years I have to say on the whole it offers great facilities, what I would say is that sanitising stations need filling up as soon as their empty On a personal and mental health note I wondered if Fitness instructors could do the rounds and approach gym members as they are working out and ask how their workouts are going and whether there's anything they would like to see more of. I think that kind of every once in a while type of engagement would enable members to feel more secure in the gym. My last observation is not about the staff so much but more of an observation that the young male gym users in this gym here really need to chill out more and feel empowered in working out, I see a lot of matcho stuff being projected to see if they are better than people. If you have had a workout smile hold your head up and be proud of who you are and don't listen to what the media, people or what anyone says you should be or conform to just chill out and enjoy your workouts a bit more. I notice a lot of gym users come alive when they engage with fellow members so I think they should just be confident to be themselves when coming alone. I get there's pressure to impress women who look nice but the focus and emphasis should be about just improving your mental health and keeping fit and being happy about yourself in life and stop conforming to pear pressure to be something or someone your not I never care what people think I just do my great workouts and head home. That's where I think introducing a bit of Instructor engagement with Gym user's might help with feelings of isolation as well as people going to classes.
Hi Phil. Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we always appreciate and take on board member feedback. We are always looking to make improvements to give our members the very best!

Negative experience: Becoming increasingly dirty! Equipment always broken, changing room dirty and toilets disgusting. Would make sense to shut down for deep clean and stop giving out so many free sessions to people who are never going to pay to go there. Look after your regulars. Not impressed
Hi Rachel. Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we always appreciate and take on board member feedback. We would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Negative experience: Lack of benches and cable machines which makes it hard to get on anything. Very overcrowded. Changing rooms smell and toilets have been broken for weeks. Prices are cheap so I guess you get what you pay for. Staff are helpful!
Hi Russell, thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we always appreciate and take on board member feedback.

Thanks, PureGym
Positive experience: Only attend from 04:00 to 05:30. Very quiet then. Big gym, decent equipment and at £15a month. Pretty good value.
Negative experience: I'm just not to impressed about after midnight there is no staff working. If someone hurts themselves and they can't call for assistance then us people have to help. Technically it's not our job. And the fact that I tried buying a padlock from there vending machine it took my money but never gave me my chosen item. No staff to talk to so I had no choice to be out of pocket. Apart from all that I like the gym.
Hi David, thanks for leaving us this review. We are sorry to see this is 1 star. We appreciate and value our member feedback. We advise all of our members to fully read through the Unmanned hours section before joining. We do have emergency call points within the gym should they need to be used. We are always looking to make improvements to give our members the very best! If you have any specific suggestions please approach the Gym Manager or leave a note in the feedback box, which is regularly reviewed. Thanks, PureGym.
Positive experience: This is a convenient gym for me as it's only 5 minutes walk from home. Equipment maintenance is sometimes a problem, especially if there is only 1 or 2 of a machine, but generally it's good. It's undergoing a major refurbishment at the moment, looking forward to seeing the improvements.

Fantastic experience: Although maybe not as well equipped as the one in the city centre, it still has a wide range of machines and free weight options, which will be more than adequate for 9/10 gym goers. A happy side effect of this is although like most gyms it will get busy during peak times, It's version of busy is a lot more manageable than centrals. I have not attended any classes so I'm unable to give an insight to those but from personal experience when I've had interaction with the staff they seem pleasant.

Positive experience: Soulless compared to independent gyms, and lacking certain grass roots kit. However, it's a large space with adequate equipment, clean, tidy, cheaper than most, open 24/7 and literally a 60 second walk from my house so at least I get there!
Thanks for your review. We’re always looking to improve our services and your feedback would be helpful, if you’d like to tell us more about your experience please get in touch. PureGym.
Positive experience: Nice clean tidy gym, went on a Sunday morning so busy but not to busy. Was able to use equipment with any waiting around.

We want to provide our members with a safe space in which they can get a great workout in and do so, in a clean environment. It's great to hear you enjoy using the gym and have got a little routine back! Thanks, PureGym
Positive experience: Great gym with a large variety of equipment and lots of guides on how to use it. Staff are helpful if you have questions. Only annoying thing is the changing rooms locking after 12, no way to get in after then either without phoning up. Had to phone them to be able to get my bag which including medication I needed. Otherwise though it's genuinely clean and a good gym.
Hi Marcus, thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we always appreciate and take on board member feedback. It's great to hear you enjoy using the gym overall.

In the meantime, we hope you're able to make the most of the gym and reach your personal fitness goals. Thanks, PureGym.
Negative experience: I’ve been a members for few years now and have noticed a rapid decline in the cleanliness hygiene of the place. I usually go about 9 pm as it’s quieter and there were always cleaners hoovering emptying bins Scrubbing the showers etc - now never see a cleaner - the showers are usually disgusting I have to clean them before I can use them after - there never any staff there late - the costs have gone up the standards have gone down ! Im looking for another place to go as this isn’t what I signed up to some years ago !!! Nigel Taylor - 58 2402 57
Hi Nigel, thanks for taking the time to leave this review but we’re sorry to see it's 2 stars. Staff do undertake regular cleaning checks and we have dedicated cleaning teams come each night to carry out and comply with internal and external audits. But we can of course check the cleaning rotas so if you let the Gym Manager know when you’ve visited they can properly investigate. In the meantime, I hope you're able to make the most of the gym and reach your personal fitness goals. Thanks, PureGym

Hi Peter! Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we always appreciate and take on board member feedback. It's great to hear you enjoy using the gym overall. In the meantime, we sincerely wish you the best in your future fitness goals. Thanks, PureGym
Positive experience: This place at first used to demotivate me simply because of how busy it is. But if you go during the day its a different story. The machines are well worn in but there are a variety of machines here. Probably 2nd to The gym on Shirley high Street for budget gyms anyway. Parking at the back for 2 hrs is a bonus. Lift available. Toilets and showers are fairly clean most of the time and the cleaning facilities are present. All in all a very good gym with nice environment and people.
Hi - Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we always appreciate and take on board member feedback. It's great to hear you enjoy using the gym overall.
Negative experience: Great gym, however, having to pay for an administration fee and a resubmission fee every time you miss an instalment is a joke and costs £37 overall for the month.
Hi - Thanks for taking the time to leave this rating, but I'm sorry to see it's 2 stars. We are always keen to receive feedback so we can improve our service. We'd love to talk to you in more detail, if you can contact Member Services with your membership queries we can help. Thanks, PureGym
Negative experience: I got a membership, last month, moved from the gym (paying £16.99 a month) to paying £21.99 at this gym, because its closer to my house. They didn't "charge" me joining in fee because they had an offer For some reason they cancelled my membership without warning me, so I was not allowed entry and then when I tried "restarting" my membership, they charged me another £15 for joining in fee... Played it nice puregym, nice way off scamming people. I should have stayed with the gym, at least they didn't scam me in the past 8 years I was with them and before "cancelling" the membership they would send a text message and a email, so they don't find a reason to charge for joining in fee. Absolutely pathetic
Negative experience: Don't know never been.
Fantastic experience: Nice gym friendly place no pressure to use machines or move onto something else and plenty of sanitizer and tissues

Fantastic experience: A good sized gum with a few different areas. On the gum floor there is a studio area for classes, free weights area with various racks and benches. There are two large rows of treadmills and elliptical machines with various body machines. There is a body weights section upstairs with a spin studio. Their atmosphere is always positive and it never seems to get too busy, even around peak times.

Positive experience: In terms of variety of equipment, space and location, I can't fault it. It's got everything I need, no matter what kind of workout i want to do. I really like the mantra of inclusivity and acceptance pumped out across the speakers regularly, and certainly you see all body types and various levels of abilities in there, which is is a bonus point for them. For this reason, four stars. There are two gripes I have, one which is easily resolvable and one that isn't: 1. Given the rise in covid cases the country is experiencing, I'm surprised to see that at least half of the hand sanitisers are generally empty, as are the antibacterial sprays. Also, hardly anyone wipes down the equipment after using it, yet these are things Puregym also promote over the speakers. 2. (And this really is a first world problem) There's something about they way it feels in there- it just feels a bit dingy. There is a wall of windows on one side, which lets in natural light to about 20% of the gym, but that's cut off from the rest of the gym. Despite there being lots of space , this makes it feel less so, and as I say, a bit dark and dingy. I certainly don't care enough about the dinginess (is that a word?) to not go there, because on balance its excellent, and I can be extra careful with sanitising before i use equipment, but I do tend to choose to attend the Fareham one over this whenever I'm over that way.
Thanks for the feedback Toby! We're so pleased to hear our members also share our value of inclusivity as this is something we take pride in! In regards to cleanliness, staff do regular cleaning checks in the gym and we have dedicated cleaning teams who come each day to carry out. Of course, during peak times it can be difficult for us to compete all cleaning routines, however as soon as it is possible our staff will complete all procedures and checks. If you have any concerns or suggestions, please speak with your Gym Manager. In the meantime, I hope you're able to make the most of the gym and reach your personal fitness goals. PureGym
Positive experience: A little small, good equipment
Hi - Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we always appreciate and take on board member feedback. . We would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused. We’re afraid it's true, our gyms simply are very popular and so can become busy especially at peak times, but this does fluctuate throughout the day and from day to day. To make the most of the space where possible, though, we are always looking to expand and improve our facilities. Thanks, PureGym
Fantastic experience: I joined the gym about a month ago and am enjoying it so much also the stuff are friendly and it's just a great atmosphere
Hi Jade, thanks for taking the time to leave this rating. It's great to see you're enjoying your time at our Southampton Bitterne branch! If you have any specific feedback, please do get in touch. Thanks, PureGym
Positive experience: Good gym, have added a lot since i was last there. Expanded the free weight area and packed in more machines without being cramped. A few of the machines show the wear and tear of a 24/7 gym but most are kept in good working condition.
Thanks for your great review, get in touch if you’d like to tell us more about your great experience! PureGym.

Fantastic experience: Great gym never short on spaces even at the busiest times there’s equipment to use, and the PureGym app gives access easily with a QR code to enter. Everyone has been friendly as long as I’ve been there, since last October. Big clean changing rooms, clean toilets and lots of shower cubicles. Only thing to note is you need your own padlock for the lockers.

Fantastic experience: I wasn't much of a gym fan. Went to puregym and now I love going. All the staff are friendly and very helpful. The classes are suitable for beginners as well as experienced people. I won't go anyway else now! Thank you to all the staff!
Hi Pamela, thanks for your great review. Get in touch if you’d like to tell us more about your great experience! PureGym.
Positive experience: Well equipped gym with plenty of space. The showers and locker rooms could use with some cleaning, at least more often. Also the PTs could be more friendly and advise some of the members on when they are doing wrong exercises, no one should injure themselves while a professional is watching them( saw it a couple of times).
Hi Adrian, thanks for taking the time to leave this review. We appreciate and take on board all member feedback. It’s great to hear you’re enjoying our gym! Thanks, PureGym.
Positive experience: It is all about location, I used to be a member of The Gym in Southampton central. It is larger less busy more equipment and cheaper than this pure Gym. But this gym is 5 minutes from my house.
Thanks for the feedback, Edward! We have over 220 bits of kit in each gym and aim to have a broad spread, getting the balance right between cardio and weights. If you have any queries on the equipment at your gym, or any suggestions, feel free to get in touch with the gym team by using the e-mail link on the gym's website. You can also plan your sessions for quieter times by checking the busyness of the gym on your PureGym app. We're pleased that the gym is convenient for you to use! Thanks, PureGym.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym for the price. Changing rooms really clean.
Thank you for the great review Matt! We hope you continue to enjoy your time with us. Thanks, PureGym
Fantastic experience: Good facilities. Lots of equipment
Hi Scott, thanks for your feedback! Great to hear that you are enjoying Puregym and our facilities. Thanks, Puregym
Fantastic experience: Very safely setup and still plenty of kit to use. Cleaning stations throughout and good to have changing rooms and showers available. Other members were considerate, so very happy indeed.
Positive experience: I've been going to Pure on Bitterne for a month now and it's really well run. Could do with a punch bag but I may not have found it yet. I haven't tried the classes yet, but the gym is very well stocked with kit and machines are regularly cleaned.
Thank you for your review! We hope you continue to enjoy our gym. Thanks, PureGym
Positive experience: Need to replace some of the grips on some of the equipment, also during its busy hour it can be a pain to get on some of the machines/benches. All in all though great environment to work out in and excellent hygiene
Hi Ryan. Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we always appreciate and take on board member feedback. It's great to hear you enjoy using the gym overall. Our gyms are very popular and can become busy, especially at peak times! The busyness does fluctuate throughout the day, and from day-to-day. We have implemented a section to the website and the app which informs our members how many people are in the gym at that time and a graph to show the previous busyness of the gym on certain dates for comparison which we have found has really helped our members plan their workouts. On the equipment, staff do regular maintenance checks and work hard with our equipment providers and facilities team to ensure that if there are any issues they are resolved as soon as possible. We are equally disappointed when this happens and sometimes need to wait on engineers or specific resources to resolve the issue but will have everything back up-and-running as soon as if safely possible. Thanks, PureGym
Positive experience: Clean, plenty of kit, helpful staff

Negative experience: I don't use gyms, I must have walked past the place
Positive experience: Gym with plenty of space and machines. Free weight zone should be bigger compare to rest of this place. Changing rooms has social distancing style
Fantastic experience: Clean with a lot of equipment. Only downside is that the staff could be a bit more strict regarding covid guidelines but I can appreciate the hassle that may cause. Also, the late cleaner does not wear any ppe
Fantastic experience: Grear
Fantastic experience: Very clean and professional. Friendly staff Great atmosphere 5*
Fantastic experience: Had another great session at Bitterne on Sunday. Very quiet so no problems moving amongst the equipment. Lovely and spacious compared to Central.
