Imax 3 years ago

Positive experience: Great place to workout, good layout of the place. Staff are friendly and have suggested to use cycle room as the cycles are taken. Women are thirsty as hell here- if your good looking or taken I suggest wearing a face mask as to not get distracted. Stay hard don't simp sigma lifestyle.❤

Neil Ravenscroft 3 years ago

Positive experience: Been training here for a few years now. The staff and PT’s are very friendly. Although the machines are a few years old I love training here. Better than some of the up to date machines found in the newer gyms. The atmosphere in the gym has greatly improved from a few months ago. Although it can get busy in the evenings you can get a decent workout in. Keep up the good work.

Jacob Hampton 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great gym, great people!

David McLellan 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Bloody good gym with good range of free weights. Make it 24/7 though please! I go to the Gym in London (Angel) and the 24 hour times mean you don't have to race to finish a workout late at night or have to wait if you want to go super early. But nonetheless, a quality gym.

Jordan Carr 3 years ago

Negative experience: The gym was quite dated compared to other gyms of the same brand. My main problem was with one of the staff members. Don't have his name but he was working on the door 29/09/2021 early evening, a white guy with a zero-fade hair cut. Made me feel uncomfortable from the moment I walked through the door with his fake, arrogant persona. He was definitely on some sort of power trip and made it very difficult for me to enter the gym with my guest pass. I was considering joining the gym as well, but 100% will not be now.

Daniel Volak 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Class gym - got more facilities than most, not been at peak times yet so can't vouch for how busy it gets but was almost empty when I went in during the day today.

G R 3 years ago

Negative experience: My boyfriend got another membership for my friend, who’s visiting Manchester only for a month. In other worlds, he has two memberships, one for himself and one for my friend. The staff found out. And forced us to open another membership for my friend. That makes none sense. JD’s fine but their staff are so annoying

Mohammad Sufyan 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best gym in central Manchester

Laura-Anne Kitt 4 years ago

Positive experience: Rejoined the gym after lockdown, good range of equipment, friendly staff. Needs more classes available, but in fairness I'm guessing g these are reduced because of Covid restrictions

Brian Jacobs 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Everything as it should be in a great retail store . In all departments and the restaurant.

Saxon Christopher Whittle 4 years ago

Positive experience: Generally a good gym. Can be very messy at times and hard to find equipment, but front door has been broken for weeks and beginning to get annoying

anthony quinn 4 years ago

Positive experience: A wide selection of gym equipment at a very reasonable price

Seif Kamal 4 years ago

Positive experience: Overall it's fine, does the job. The staff are friendly. The facilities are usually in decent condition. The music is terrible, either cheesy pop or mumble rap, sometimes you'll hear two songs at once, one in the main area and one in the classes room, so bring your headphones along.

Levente Kálmán 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: This is my favourite gym in the city with good and plenty of equipment. The equipment here I think it's even better than in other gyms of the Gym Group. It's shame that it's not open 24/7 as many other gyms from The Gym Group, but the team and the management is doing a really good job managing this venue.

Hellins Sommeil 5 years ago

Positive experience: Good gym set up but the place can be busy

Vincent JP Marchello 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: This is my second home along with its sister The Gym on Portland street.. Both gyms are the same group but very different machines as deansgate was one owned by another group. If you're serious about your training do what I do 2days at 1 and 2 days at the other, I find this way I can hit different muscle parts

Dave Mac D 5 years ago

James Poyser 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms I’ve been to, wide variety of machines, plenty of space for free weights and staff always available to help if needed. Changing rooms are clean and water is easily available too. 10/10

Quin Smith 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Really good gym in Manchester City centre. Can be very busy at peak times, but with the space available, there’s a great range of machines and lots of free weights, much more than typical chain gym.

Abdul Kalam 6 years ago

Positive experience: Gets really busy but it's got a larger free weights area compared to other gyms.

AA Stevens 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Can't complain really, so big that it's never so busy where you can't get on things! - staff are helpful and overall just a good gym. Been swapping gyms in Manchester for 6 months before here but last 3 months I've not needed to as it's spot on.

Tom 6 years ago

Positive experience: Good gym but it's very difficult to get on anything between 5 and 6, unless you're doing just cardio

Jay Lau 6 years ago

Positive experience: Good gym, older decor to some of the Gym Group venues but I actually prefer the machines they have here as I find them more function. Very dark with no windows but again personally I like that when I'm training. Only down side is the showers are a bit scummy but they recently fixed the broken showers so that's good. There's also no water fountains in the gym which isn't great but you can deal with it with a bottle with you. Atmosphere in the morning is fine, no attitude.

Vernon Wroe 6 years ago

Positive experience: Good gym, plenty of equipment and good staff. Being in the town centre though it is very often busy, even off-peak time are quite crowded. Great for general fitness but for working on routines etc it can be hard to access equipment more often than not. Otherwise great city centre gym.

Georgi Valyukov 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Very spacious and well equipped. And the PTs are spot on.

Georgi V 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Quite spacious and a good choice of equipment and classes. PTs are top class.

Renny Jobi 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: It's located on the 3rd floor of the Manchester Odeon building. They have fitness classes around 6.30am, around lunch time (12noon) and after work periods (6pm). They offer HIIT classes, spin classes depending on what your goal is. If you're not interested in classes, you can just have your workout sessions. You can get personal trainers at an extra cost (from £30). There is no registration fee, but you pay a monthly charge. The gym is only accessible by your pin number after you have registered. Great people and easy to use machines.

JJ Saddleton 6 years ago

Darius Kasanardjo 6 years ago

Positive experience: Good price offered by The Gym group. I am a live it member where I have multiple gym access. I have to say that The Gym Deansgate has the worst machines conditions,quite old and different branded/types compare to the other ones in Manchester/Bolton

David Ross 6 years ago

Positive experience: Pros: Staff are helpful, cheap £20/month, has everything you could possibly need, free exercise classes and spacious. Cons: The machines are old, it's not very clean and is not exposed to any natural light.
