Our comment from FitFit UK about 1Leisure Medina:
1Leisure Medina is a fantastic leisure center located in Newport, United Kingdom, offering a variety of facilities for fitness enthusiasts and families alike. With a spacious gym equipped with modern equipment, a large swimming pool, and various fitness classes, it provides excellent value for members. The OneCard membership allows access to multiple activities, making it a popular choice for both children and adults.
Visitors have praised the center for its cleanliness and friendly staff, who are always willing to help. The facility is well-organized and hosts engaging events like model railway shows and fitness workshops. Many users appreciate the free parking available for members and the variety of activities offered, from swimming lessons to gym workouts.
However, some reviews highlight a few areas for improvement. Guests have noted issues with the men's changing rooms and the cold temperatures in the pool. Additionally, some users have experienced delays in gym inductions and reported that certain shower facilities may not meet hygiene expectations. There is also feedback indicating that peak times can be crowded with children from the nearby high school.
Overall, 1Leisure Medina is regarded as a great place to keep fit and enjoy family activities, but addressing the highlighted issues could enhance the experience even further.

1Leisure Medina: Opinions

Fantastic experience: Clean , well run leisure club.
Thank you so much for your feedback Chris!
Positive experience: It is a shock and a shame that after looking at 1 leisure facilities that almost everything on premises is excellent, until we get the mens changing rooms, the biggest oversight I have ever seen in modern times that for approximately 100 clothes lockers they have a matching and inappropriate shower arrangement you could squeeze maybe 4 people in, and question maybe is it hygienic. Please improve this facility as it falls well below par.
Thank you for your feedback Martin. We've passed this onto the team.

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback Sam!
Negative experience: Incredibly poor experience unfortunately - walked to get here only to be told I need an induction to use the gym & they're fully booked. I appreciate health & safety rules but I don't need an induction to use a leisure centre gym.
Thank you for your feedback Jack. We've passed this onto the team.
Negative experience: Poor gym. Advertised a day pass… went to purchase one. They said they’re unable to as need to give an induction… said it only takes 2 mins to do but they’re really busy all evening? 3 members of staff sat around reception doing nothing just chatting? Lazy attitude
Thank you for your feedback Tyler. We've passed this onto the team.
Positive experience: Great gym , friendly staff but a daily abundance of children from the adjacent high school aged what look likes 12-15 in the gym , unfortunately they seem to be there right on a time that i and most others need to use the gym... 5pm, each to their own but if im paying £40 per month to use a gym i feel i should be able to use the machines and not have to wait for 20+ high school children to leave (especially at that time of day) , i dont think its appropriate at that time of day to have them in there throwing weights around( do they know the risk of lifting such weights at their age?) and taking selfies, i will be cancelling my membership
Thank you for your feedback Captain Quint. We've passed this onto the team.
Negative experience: Went to take my kids swimming here as it's one off the biggest swimming pools on the island. But only opens for 45 minutes on a Tuesday at the cost off 10 pound for 1 adult 2 children. Bye the time we jump in it's time to get out very sad.
Thank you for your feedback James. We've passed this onto the team.

Negative experience: Bad school
Hi James, thank you for your review. We think you might have meant to leave this for Medina College rather than 1Leisure's centre. We're not a school. If you have visited our facilities, please feel free to leave us any feedback :)
Fantastic experience: The water in the pool was clean and well staffed with lifeguards. The fun session had a good variety of floats and balls. I've been back recently as previously left a 3 star 2 years ago. Now absolutely brilliant pool and staff. Thanks for all you do

Positive experience: Good place to get fit
Thank you for your positive review, Simon!
Positive experience: The facilities are great but the major factor letting this place down is the cleanliness of the changing rooms. First glance is ok but behind the shower and cubicle doors aren't nice. Also there aren't any hooks in the cubicles so if you hang your clothes over the door they'll be covered in dust. I have brought this to the attention of staff before but nothing changed
Thank you for your review, Lisa!

Fantastic experience: A reasonably small theatre, it has no gap between the stage and the seating area so it can be a chance to get close to the act! Although it says no photography no one seems to stop anyone from doing it!
Thank you for your positive review, Michele! Apologies about the photography incident.
Fantastic experience: Half decent gym, friendly staff just needs more pro active trainers

Thank you for your review, Judy!
Positive experience: enjoy going to medina leisure center for racket sports and swimming on my 1 card however, somedays its almost impossible to get through on the phone to make an appointment because they must be so busy. The nature of my partners job means he has evening jobs at least one day a week which switch to different days so a booking at medina after our sports session just can't be done. An online booking system would be so good! other than that the staff are friendly and the place is nice I just wish I could book up more often over the phone.
Thank you for your review, Bethany.
Fantastic experience: Good atmosphere. Friendly staff. When You want start your adventure with fitness, come here.
Thank you for your positive review, Marek!
Positive experience: A nice leisure centre filled with your basic swimming pool, gym, sports hall etc. All up for renting or purchasing sessions in them. Nice staff and prices are never too high. More recently, I joined the gym and the facilities are all really nice. Wide range of free weights and machines. Nothing too out of the ordinary or special, yet everything they have is everything you'd need. Don't hesitate to sign yourself up to a 'OneCard' plan!
Thank you for your positive review, Oliver!
Fantastic experience: Aqua classes excellent
Thank you for your positive review, Jill!
Negative experience: Good pool and health suit. But everytime i go something seems to be broken down and the same excuses given. Showers where freezing with no hot water. Hot tub broken down again ( waiting for another part. Again) Gym is ok. Changing cubicles gone now in male changing room. If you like your privacy you can forget it. Given up going now. Such a shame, it used to be great there .
Thank you for your review, Keith.
