The Gym Group Slough

Positive experience: Tired equipments. Okay for the price.

Positive experience: Not as well equipped as other gyms but plenty of space and budget friendly.

Fantastic experience: Good clean gym very supportive PTs

Positive experience: Good gym with good facilities, but the temperature is not balanced and conditions can be difficult.

Negative experience: Wow, of all The Gyms out there, this has to be the worst I have visited. The lack of respect shown from member to member is a disgrace. Weights left everywhere, nothing gets put back. Whilst doing squats on the rack, I had one bloke shadow boxing behind me! Because he "needed to see a mirror, innit" The staff don't seem to care they're working in a tip. Never pulling members up on their bad gym etiquette. I used this gym in a pinch, in future I'll chose any other activity than use this facility. Awful. The Gym Group sort it out.

Fantastic experience: One of the better locations for the gym group. Clean, tidy, locks working and good staff too.

Negative experience: This gym is just pure convenience when I stay over in Slough. It has barely any staff no matter what time you attend, so you can imagine what state the gym is in, there is nobody on site to enforce any type of gym etiquette and behaviour. The gym group opted to remove sanitising sprays and tissues, that’s something a gym doesn’t need? Anyway! The biggest issues at this gym is it’s members, there is no gym etiquette when it comes to leaving the place tidy/clean, a considerable amount of members sadly cannot practice basic hygiene (not the gyms fault) but if staff were around you can remind members. The gym regularly has a strong body odour issue, so you may find yourself being put off and moving away from one floor to the other. A reminder to the gym users - it’s there for a workout, do your training and leave. It’s not a fashion show, wearing crocs, slides, flip flops is not appropriate footwear for a gym. Staff should be enforcing this on site. Don’t attend with 6 people and walk out like you had a good session. Don’t shadow box/use pads in the functional zone like you’re ready to be the next mayweather you look ridiculous and find somewhere out of the gym for that. The unfortunate truth of 24 hour/budget gyms is the above, sadly that is why I miss the local private run gyms of the past. It’s nice that I have the option of nicer clubs outside of town, but for the residents of Slough, it is a real shame that you go for a stress relieving workout but have to deal with some of the above. Recommendations for gym management: Gym etiquette poster - might not make a difference but worth a try. More of a staff presence to enforce the above. Bring back sanitising sprays, my towel doesn’t clean the machine of someone else’s sweat. It’s not your biggest expense, and if it is so… ask the cleaner who cleans only the floor to leave a mop & bucket for us to clean it for you - and then increase your prices again as a thank you to us. Cleaning of equipment at regular intervals. Ensuring a clean, safe, tidy and hygienic gym is standard, you should manage this.

Positive experience: Gym is good overall however without warning or message they froze my account denying me access because I left weights in the bar in Basildon gym. I had to message them through Instagram. I asked further how is it fair 75% of time I have to remove other peoples weights off then expected to also rack my weights. They did not respond.

Negative experience: The staff that work in this gym seem to have some comprehension issues. I had my membership suspended without warning for 'not re-racking weights'. I remember the incident where I was asked if I had been using the machine in question and that I needed to re-rack my weight. I explained that I hadn't been using the machine but had just taken a weight from there to use on a machine I was using. This apparently translated in their mind as a refusal to re-rack weights. Quite aside from the fact that of this rule was being enforced membership wide about 75% of users would be suspended, it's ridiculous to suspend membership for something this minor without warning, even worse when you havent even done the thing they're accusing you of. Avoid.

Fantastic experience: This is one of the better gym group gyms. I've used a few now and this one is clean and well equipped. There's a good range of kit all in good condition and well maintained. The changing rooms are clean and the staff are polite and friendly. As far as cheap gyms go there aren't many better!

Negative experience: Sorry to say that Your manager is So rude They Dont behaviour Like a Manager She always So rude M trubling from some days With my Pin Nd Try to meet manager Nd i ring Outside of the enternce no one is coming for open nd for help Im trying continue To Long time

Negative experience: Very bad experience with the slough gym manager she is very rude and ignore the customer on face ,my friend rang 4 times half n hour no one come between 8 to 8 pm . Very bad service ,they block the gym membership without any good reason people suffer and no one there for talk .So called manager very rude and disrespect the customer ,who gave her manager position who even don’t know how to manage .

Negative experience: Dirty machines and no cleaning equipment they removed the cleaning station.

Negative experience: I am a regular at the gym. I go at least 4 days a week. On my recent visit I noticed they stopped providing the cleaning station which is hygienic to be able to wipe down the equipment after usage! If hygiene levels continue to stoop at this gym I will attend a different gym that can meet simple hygiene standards.

Positive experience: Decent gym overlay busy for time of night had to wait to get on equipment

Negative experience: The worst gym ever to be in.. no management and no staff after 4 for assistance. I had a friend along me with an invitation so he can come and his pin won’t work absolutely rubbish! Wasted our time as we were really looking forward!

Fantastic experience: Stepping into this gym, you're immediately met with a vibe that's both energizing and welcoming. Ian and the rest of the team have created a fantastic and supportive gym community, there's one standout that truly makes this place shine: Arlyn. As a personal trainer, Arlyn's expertise and enthusiasm are unmatched, making every session feel personalized and effective. Plus, her friendly demeanor as a staff member adds to the gym's charm. Whether you're a gym newbie or a seasoned athlete, Arlyn will help you hit your goals with a smile. A top-tier gym experience all around

Positive experience: Very good place to start gym especially if you are a beginner the staff is also extremely friendly and inviting the gym also has many resources to be able to start off in

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere. Was banned for not removing my plate weights but when explained why I can’t disagree with them. Have now got my partner joined too

Negative experience: The gym is absolutely packed out from 5 pm to 10 pm there are on average 80+ people during these times , every single machine bench is taken you can’t even get the work out in at 10 pm ….

Positive experience: Price is good, abit overcrowded but overall good. No time restrictions You do get some riff raff but thats expected in Slough

Positive experience: The gym is great! They have a lot of equipment and the staff is really nice.

Negative experience: I’ve been a member of this gym since day one…..and sadly as time has gone on it keeps declining. I remember when I first joined staff were hot on members placing weights away, having a word with the odd smelly person and also challenging those in the incorrect attire….those days have long gone….ive seen people working out in shoes, school uniform, jeans, sandals - like what on earth!!! Weights are always all over the place other than during the middle of the day. What was more annoying about this gym was recently they decided to block access to those that left any weights out, I left a 20kg plate on a racked bar which I wouldn’t say is unreasonable, without warning I was banned until I came in to speak to the manager. Email stated come between 8-8, arrive before this time and ‘oh sorry the managers not around, you’ll have to come during the day.’ Why state in your email come between 8-8?!! I’ve always been someone to clear up plates and dumbbells that have been left on the floor and placed in the right place. The manager didn’t care about this stating ‘thanks but that’s not your job.’ Granted, but why block someone who actually takes pride in the gym and looks after it?!!! What takes the P with the recent temporary ban, I feel it was literally a week and only enforced on those using the gym during the day (I maybe wrong) - refer to my pictures to see what the gym has been looking like late evenings - a dump yard is more organised than this!! Also a gym where the manager doesn’t work during peak times?! Shows how much he actually cares about the place!! The only positives of this place are Inga and Shaun as well as the convenience of where it is, otherwise I’d be out of there.

Fantastic experience: I've joined this gym when it opened in March 2019 - it coincided with me moving to Slough - I love it - it has it's ups and downs but it's never been bad tbh. I've been to a few "the gym" premises before and this is probably the best. Comparing it with the other gym in trading estates the gym remains better in my eyes and comparing it to the couple of gyms in central Slough - well I'd say it doesn't smell like dead cats inside and I'll leave it there. Save to say I'll probably won't leave this gym branch unless I relocate of course.

Fantastic experience: The gym is spacious, good ventilation and friendly staff. Location is ideal and a good variety of machines.

Fantastic experience: Inga’s classes are great - Rani

Fantastic experience: Good gym, Inga who is one of the trainers really brings life to the gym

Fantastic experience: I visited this branch a few times recently and really enjoyed the classes with Inga. Very positive and motivated coach! Simple the best so far. Best of luck and see you soon!!

Fantastic experience: Very nice atmosphere and amazing Team. Inga and Seb are always very friendly and helpful. Thanks guys for making the Gym Slough a nice place to be.

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym, always spotless and very tidy. Great atmosphere. PT Inga is outstanding! Very knowledgeable and always willing to help. Whether you take one of her classes or one-on-one session, be assured- she'll squeeze everything you got out of you. Definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience: Amazing facility, top equipment and great environment. Good service with friendly staff and super clean and comfortable gym. Best trainers especially Inga, Arlene and Seb. They have amazing group classes def recommend it

Fantastic experience: Inga from The Gym is a standout personal trainer, known for her warm and professional approach. Her energetic and motivating presence makes her stand out from the crowd. With her unique ability to push clients to their limits, she's in a league of her own.

Fantastic experience: Been working with Inga for a long period of time, and she has been everything that I have asked for in a personal trainer. I wanted to be pushed but she knew my limits. She kept me in check when I got distracted and above all I saw the results. She made me feel comfortable, as I felt quite conscientious of myself. Added bonus is that being at the gym group Slough, it is quite spacious and also supports the different types of workouts that Inga has put in place for me.

Positive experience: I moved to this gym from PureGym, simply because Inga trained me for a long time and wanted to continue seeing her on the gym floor. She brightens up everyone’s day and really gives everyone the motivation to work out and achieve results. Days when Inga is not around, the gym is full and the atmosphere is off. She is always on hand to help everyone even if she is not training me. Thank you very much Inga for always looking after me and teaching me so much!! Unfortunately, the gym gets really busy and there is not enough space to park my car. You need more parking available.

Fantastic experience: It's the best place I think this place has become my best friend to be honest where I can workout physically and mentally. It helped me bring back my confidence. All the instructors are so professional and friendly and very helpful

Fantastic experience: Inga is a wonderful coach

Fantastic experience: The Gym is very good and Inga the trainer is super she.If you needs help she will always help to you. Well done

Fantastic experience: Great 24/7 gym, always very tidy and clean. Big props to coach Inga, doing amazing job all around. Best coach I've ever had.

Fantastic experience: Great gym and friendly staff! The manager is a cool dude!

Fantastic experience: Well equipped gym, great machines and not too crowded The staff are beyond friendly and the gym is kept immaculate at all times. Inga and Iain very professional and very knowledgeable and patient - will take time to answer all your questions both within session times and if you’re working out on your own.

Fantastic experience: Nash is amazing trainer, I booked all the classes with him, treat everyone with respect, correct us when making wrong exercise, feeling the class vibes and adjusting the exercise accordingly. Love the gym, especially that you have the women training room separately. I would love to have more classes from 4.30pm.

Fantastic experience: Nash is coming along amazingly well. Getting more confident and I really enjoy his sessions now. Go Nash keep up the good work. .

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy coming here I am a regular attendant for the 9:15 classes , I love it the atmosphere is so relaxing and the instructor are amazing and professional, 5 star to seb Inga and Arliny

Fantastic experience: Great class good motivation

Fantastic experience: I have been using this branch of the gym group around 6 months. I travel with work a lot so have used a number of the branches. When I first started using the slough gym it was good from a gym point of view but terrible by how members just don't respect the place. I noticed recently the layout changed upstairs and it made the space so much better. the class area has changed giving us more space if we are wanting to use the area whilst a class is on. I am so glad you moved the cable machine away from the changing room doors. I also noticed that I was asked to not have my bag on me whilst I trained, which I thought was odd as no one has asked me before at this branch. I do understand why I should not have it so am happy to just place it in a locker. I then see loads of signs everywhere in the gym regarding different rules and have heard from other members they had been suspended due to not removing their weights from the machine. I thought something had changed so went in to the office. I met the new manager who was happy to explain the changes that are happening to improve the site. Since speaking to the managers I have noticed an improvement in weights being replaced, rarely do I see any bags and the car park litter has been cleared (I was watching the manager clear it himself whilst I was on the upstairs treadmill). Reading some of the comments on here(recent ones) I can see that members who don't like the rules being enforced are complaining or have left. There was a notice which has been removed now about the cleaning station being removed. I was surprised that to see the cleaning station as the previous 3 gyms in the gym group I trained at no longer have them. I always see people just using it to wipe their phone screens and rarely see it being used on the equipment itself. It would be nice if there was an option for us to be able to wipe the kit down if we want, however I do know times have moved on from the pandemic. Thank you to the team at Slough for the changes happening it is massively improving and less inconsiderate people using it. Keep up the great work Ps Arlyn the PT is great and so energetic!

Fantastic experience: Having been at ‘The Gym Group’ for over a year I have seen some positive changes especially in recent months. I have built a great rapport with some of the staff and members, which has allowed for more open dialogue in the expectations from members. This has been reflected in recent changes to the gym floor space, which has greatly improved on the first floor with a better layout. The equipment is well maintained and the cleaning is done very frequently to maintain good hygiene levels. All the staff members at Slough are friendly and professional and always on hand to listen and help. Out of all the staff members Inga shines the most brightly with her great enthusiasm and energy, which is very infectious. I look forward to seeing the gym evolve further over time, and I am more than happy to have committed to a years membership.

Fantastic experience: I love the sessions with Inga ❤️ hard and strong

Fantastic experience: I really enjoyed the sessions with inga she is professional and funny , give us a good entertainment, thank you inga you are my ⭐

Negative experience: Dirty & unhygienic establishment. Avoid.

Negative experience: Parking at this gym is terrible, the gym is dirty. The toilet floor is always wet and dirty. They recently done a reshuffle of the machines upstairs and it’s rubbish. Some of the people at this gym have no manners and you very rarely see any staff about. To top it off whilst working out the paint on the ceiling came peeling off. This gym is literally falling apart.

Fantastic experience: Best value for money gym in Slough. Very spacious, plenty of up to date equipment and very good atmosphere. Peak hours expected to be busy of course but still able to complete your work out.

Negative experience: The gym group is something i would call a travesty . Whilst some of the equipment was usable to an extent , the entrance and exit for a newcomer is quite exhausting and essentially a nightmare. It took me,a newcomer, several tries but I still could not open it because of silly little videos ,which to a newcomer may seem a bit odd but even when activated it still did not work . Another issue was the parking , as there are no signs for a parking entrance and exit which is a nightmare especially in the rush of whitby road . All in all whilst the equipment was okay, I am giving this gym 2 stars .

Negative experience: Unfortunately The Gym in Slough suffers from a number of problems which out weigh the good. They have had 3 managers in 2 years, so no consistency in the way the place is run. The toilets are disgusting, several times I have trained in the morning; weekday or weekends and found the mens floor covered in water/urine. The toilets themselves filled with excrement or stuffed full of toilet paper. There are machines that have been out of order for close to 2 months. It's full of people filming themselves using tripods and on occasion seen men take videos of women working out. It regularly runs out of anti-bac sprays or tissues so you go to a machine to see sweat residue stains. The current manager is not even responding to emails. Finally, I've approached two PT's when they were not training customers to enquire about their services to be told to pick up one of their business cards and email them rather than chat in the gym! These are my experiences in just the last 12 months.

Fantastic experience: Monday, Tuesday will be the busy day even if you pay for off peak. But late nights in gym are worth.

Fantastic experience: A very nice gym but some members leave weights all over the floor

Positive experience: £9.99 for a day pass. Visited at 14:00 on a Saturday. Wasn’t too busy. Environment wasn’t great… decorated incredibly clinical so felt like a hospital visit. Pretty easy to get in and out. Just not a nice feel inside.

Fantastic experience: Nice gym . Lot of space and enough equipment. Enjoy workout there.

Negative experience: I have the Ultimate where I can use multiple Gyms. Slough has always been on my list of 5, however my code was not working and neither was the camera to pick up the QR code? (Not what I am annoyed about) I was waiting a good 10 minutes having called the buzzer for assistance from a member of staff. Whilst waiting, a member of staff actually just pocked her head around, looked at me and laughed carrying on talking to whoever they were talking to around the corner totally neglecting me but was quick to laugh about it. Luckily the QR code then worked, but very unhelpful staff and unprofessional…

Fantastic experience: Has all equipment for a great workout.

Positive experience: It will be nice to have a jacuzzi

Negative experience: Good gym. Relatively empty outside of peak period 6-8pm on weekdays. Only negative is only two functional bike racks which is quite poor. Usually a lot of bikes parked up. Should encourage people to cycle rather than drive to the gym by fixing broken and adding more bike racks. The wooden thing in the photo has been there for 3+ months as well as some rubbish… please try keep area outside gym clean. UPDATE: Have to update to 2 star because the bike rack situation has not improved and can be quite ridiculous at times, see second photo.

Fantastic experience: Friendly environment. Cheap and clean. PT are nice and their class will make you work out for sure easy to use app

Positive experience: This is a very good gym overall as it is cheap very hygienic . The only thing that would be helpful is for a few necessary machines such as cable rows as 90% of gym groups usually have them but this one doesn’t, and also seated hamstring curl leg machine would be way better then lying hamstring leg curl . Maybe another bench upstairs as usually it takes ages waiting for bench press and try get some important equipment like hammer strength maybe

Positive experience: The female only room is tiny Otherwise a good gym

Positive experience: A good Gym to workout! It can get a bit crowded at times, but otherwise it has the right set of equipments to do any sort of workout from Cardio to HIIT to Body building.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym in slough. Loved it

Fantastic experience: Very nice, busy during afternoon

Fantastic experience: Good, clean, adequate for my needs. Over two floors with plenty of machinery and space to suit everyone’s needs. Car parking both outside and rear of the building! Would recommend if you don’t mind training with people wearing jeans , bear feet, flip flops and or sandals

Fantastic experience: Hi, Can I come with my Mom if I'm under 16?

Positive experience: Brilliant value for 24/7 gym access. Well equipped with all equipment you could need, showers on site. Facilities are reasonably well maintained, with lockers and equipment sometimes damaged but usually fixed in a few weeks. Can get packed at peak times but good range of equipment can help with finding alternative exercises as required. Studio floor space can be very scarce when classes are on. Range of local PTs available and the associated app is quite useful as well. Great value for money

Fantastic experience: Early Morning is good here. No issue with parking at that time. Though once I faced bit of weird smell in change room, however, overall it is fine. I enjoy and happy to join.

Positive experience: Not bad , just missing a lot of machines for workouts.

Positive experience: Nice clean Gym...very busy in evenings..friendly staff and not over priced...very good range of equipment.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym, lots of equipment to use! Staff and trainers are all lovely and classes are really good!

Fantastic experience: Great place for a workout, multiple pieces of equipment for a variety of training. Locker rooms with showers. Free parking available. Best in town.

Fantastic experience: Friendly and helpful staff and loads of equipment to help with workout sessions.

Negative experience: The gym is dirty , bathroom and showers are in a terrible state. Weights are all over the place. No organisation and gym staff are never seen . I had a little visit to the Slough gym. Wasn’t impressed

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym Seb is very helpful and always there answer questions

Fantastic experience: Helpful and excellent trainers (Seb and Inga) Great knowledge and support while training. They deserve a raise because they are dedicated to their work. Keep it up

Fantastic experience: Nice place to get energised .. Gym is huge, the equipment is first class and kept clean. 5stars for Yanga water section Staff members are very friendly, helpful and always smiley faces. My PT is the best in the game.. motivates me to continue when I feel like giving up... Overall is awesome highly recommendble

Fantastic experience: Professional and friendly staff that is always willing to help. Very clean and spacious! Convenient to get to and an added bonus of being open 24-7.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful spacious gym and great kit! Lovely friendly staff always willing to help

Fantastic experience: I have been going to this gym for approximately 3 years. This is one of the best gyms. I enjoy my workouts at this gym because the environment is friendly especially Arlyne who’s very helpful. I definitely recommend it to my family and friends.

Fantastic experience: Great equipment and absolutely amazing trainers.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, reasonably priced and always clean. I've been training with Inga for 3 years now and I can definitely say I'm fitter and healthier as a result!

Fantastic experience: I’ve had a great experience training with Inga and noticed results in my overall fitness and figure in a short time period. Would definitely recommend Inga to anybody who is looking for a personal trainer!

Fantastic experience: I've joined The Gym two years ago and I now feel like I'm part of a big family. The trainers are super helpful and friendly. There is plenty of equipment for any types of workout and even on busy times you can find availabe the machines you need. I've made lots of friends at this gym. The communication is always on point keeping the members informed if any changes are happening such as closers due to technical issues or holidays. The environment is clean and there's enough cleaning stations around the gym. What's great is that there is a ladies only room which I personally used on the start of my fitness journey because I wasn't confident enough to train in the weights area.

Fantastic experience: I really love the classes at The Gym Slough, I’ve been going for the last few months. The instructors are great and Inga especially has motivated me to get on track with a lot of my fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: Really great gym with excellent classes and instructors that care. It’s a good value gym !

Fantastic experience: I have being going to this gym for a couple of years now, Inga pushes you till you can’t go anymore! She also becomes a close friend and will be there for you every step of the way on your fitness journey! Couldn’t ask for a kinder soul but only wants the best for you
