Thornton Recreation Centre

Positive experience: Staff are always so lovely but unfortunately the gym is small so you can struggle to use what machine you want

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym with plenty of exercise equipment.

Fantastic experience: The staff are always a laugh but it can be really busy between 5-7!

Fantastic experience: Great place for keeping fit. nice layout up to date, freandly staff

Negative experience: Dont bother booking the 3g pitch. Abysmal customer relations and almost double the price (£60 / hr compared to £35 / hr) less than a mile away (with it has to be said better facilities) Teething babies dribble faster than the showers, at a height of 5 feet and 9 shower heads in a space approx 6ft by 6ft they are embarrassingly challenging to use, add to this the absence of temerature control you are either scalded or frozen, pot luck. FOH staff are lovely. Management and building are both significantly lacking. Dysfunctional and would be shut and finished if the school wasnt next door.

Positive experience: Okay gym. Has all the equipment. Has good halls for basketball and badminton. Decent prices. Clean and friendly staff.

Positive experience: I booked badminton court during an evening. The lighting is not suitable for playing badminton. The light which is placed downward from roof will directly fall in to our eyes when high lifts are performed.

Fantastic experience: Excellent service, friendly staff and quality for badminton

Fantastic experience: we go every weekend friendly staff especially the manager on Sundays.

Fantastic experience: The gym is really well laid out .instructors are excellent always have time to help

Fantastic experience: Excellent staff very helpful. Excellent facilities.

Positive experience: Great gym, especially the classes (pump and TRX) instructors. My only disappointment is with the online booking system (this is an overall Bradford council issue irrespective of the gym you attend), nothing to do with the staff. It frequently crashes, it's extremely frustrating and sometimes by the time it does come back, it's too late to get on a class. The system has been like this so for quite some time. Just wish someone within the council would resolve it. For someone like me who lacks motivation, it's the only excuse I need to skip the gym . If It wasn't for this, I'd give 5 stats as I can't fault the staff or the instructors!

Positive experience: Friendly staff clean environment

Positive experience: Due to the Covid still around the place is slowly getting better.

Positive experience: There's a great exercise class for women on a Thursday evening , run by two really motivated and friendly ladies who also have a running group on a Tuesday . It's been a while since I've been but if the exercise class is still going i would highly recommend it if you want to get fit .

Positive experience: I really like this gym but is in dyer need of some new machines though! They need to branch out with what machines they buy instead of just the basics, also wish they wouldn't let as much school kids in that just mess around on machines whilst you're there.
