PureGym London Farringdon: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Best puregym for miles. Never too busy and the Staff are great.
Positive experience: On of my fav PureGyms in London! It's like an underground cave you discover something new at every turn lol. But tell me WHY IS IT SHUT AT THE WEEKEND??? WHO DECIDED THAT???
Fantastic experience: Farringdon Pure gym and manager Claudia are awesome if you want a clean gym that's nice and reasonable price
Negative experience: I was robbed twice from the locked locker at this gym . Unbelievable. Lockers not safe - open even when locked with padlock . Sad and disappointed
Fantastic experience: As far as I've seen this might be London's largest gym in the chain (there's an entire 2nd free weights room that is sometimes empty, which is unheard of in some other venues!). Easily accessible via Elisabeth line, spacious and well maintained
Fantastic experience: Great cycle class, as always, with Jesse!
Positive experience: Much better than Holborn. More equipment and less crowded - only downside is they’re closed on weekends. Meanwhile the water dispensing machine at Holborn location still out of order after 3 weeks (see pic attached)
Fantastic experience: Great gym, great staff. Can't ask for more
Fantastic experience: Love this gym! It’s so close to work that I don’t really have any excuse not to go!!
Negative experience: Gym was meant to be open at 6 am on 19th February but did not open until 8 am causing me and many others to miss our session and be late to work due to travelling to Holborn branch.
Fantastic experience: Decent gym, always quiet, goes across three floors so always plenty of spare equipment. No signal but there's wifi
Fantastic experience: Another great double session class
Positive experience: This gym has some really great staff, but is let down by the smelly changing rooms and the overall heat of the entire gym. You will be sweating before you even start your workout. I believe this is an issue they are aware of, as there are mobile AC units around the gym. It gtes very busy after 5pm, but that is expected with any gym
Fantastic experience: Nice
Fantastic experience: The team are amazing! Would love to thank Claudia for helping me today. Such a lovely clean gym with everything you need! Highly recommend
Fantastic experience: Nice and clean well set out very handy if your in the Manor shame it's not open weekends
Positive experience: Would be 5 star but it’s closed on the weekends
Positive experience: This gym has become my second home; I've achieved fantastic results and made lasting friendships!
Fantastic experience: For day pass, Ignore the mess of an app (not available to foreigners) and just use the pin number. Use any local post code, that part also not thought through. Then it's seamless and a good gym!
Negative experience: Terrible. I paid for a 30 days membership for £62 and it never reflected. Then I was desperate to gym so I paid for another 7 days. Came here on a Saturday and it’s closed. DO NOT ADVERTISE YOURSELF AS 24 HOURS IF YOU ARENT OPEN ON A WEEKEND. THIS IS SUCH BAD BUSINESS.
Positive experience: Would be better with more machines for your glutes and tummy. It's usually full of pro gym goers and I often feel a bit uncomfortable going there as its a bit pretentious at times. But it's clean and handy for being literally on my front door
Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere, friendly staff and very spacious! Recommend
Negative experience: Quite unhappy with the experience I’ve had at this gym. I go to the PureGym at Holborn but since it was temporarily shut, I was asked to use the one at Farrington. I waited outside for 20 mins to be let in and nobody showed up. I pressed the button for assistance at the door and there was no response. Unsatisfactory customer service - if the gym in understaffed they should write that outside so that one doesn’t waste their time.
Fantastic experience: Surprisingly nice for a puregym
Negative experience: Dark and small underground gym without hot water through the showers for three weeks. Poor customer service that sends automatic replies or doesn't reply at all. I cancelled my membership.
Fantastic experience: Very good gym, conveniently placed
Positive experience: Pretty decent gym in general. However one thing I would say is that it gets very hot inside especially in the free weights room downstairs, and the fact that it closes over the weekend is pretty frustrating. Apart from that it’s got everything you need for a good workout.
Fantastic experience: Very well managed gym. Always well maintenaded , clean. Staff is friendly and helpful. The manageress is extremely professional.
Fantastic experience: Lunchtime classes in Farringdon are amazing! I feel fitter :) thank you for pushing me to become a healthy version of me @Claudia, Jessie, Jessica and Rachel :)
Fantastic experience: Clean,tidy and friendly gym
Fantastic experience: Amazing place ! Quiter than others and clean
Fantastic experience: Great gym! Spacious, excellent range of cardio equipment, big studio, decent weight room and they have a very wide range of machines all under one roof!
Negative experience: Why are you, as a pure gym, closed at 10pm on a Friday?
Positive experience: Overall good gym for Central London. It's on multiple floors and there is very poor mobile connection. I haven't seen having a free WIFI so it's a bit inconvenient for being contacted during training or/and using internet for music. Has plenty of equipment, however, for almost 6 months one free weight room was closed due to some water leak issue. Could use a bit more equipment such as dips machine, abs machine and some free weight machines for back. Other than thatball good.
Negative experience: Free weights room closed for 2 months with no communication from gym or updates, broken facilities (lockers, hand dryers), almost unuseable during peak hours
Fantastic experience: Great space and really welcoming team.
Fantastic experience: Great place to work out. Never too busy, friendly staff!!!
Fantastic experience: Great equipment.
Fantastic experience: Great Gym with efficient and friendly management - well done
Fantastic experience: Nice, small, not crowded gym. Manager Mitchell was very friendly and helpful.
Fantastic experience: Can't fault them, always clean and always welcomed with a smile and 'hello'.
Positive experience: Its OK. Not the biggest or best of the Pure Gym venues. Has plenty of cardio, some machines and almost no free weights options. Not bad for a quick workout after work but nothing more really. Changing rooms are a lil shabby so prob best to shower at home/office. Plus point is on weekdays its open basically 24 hours :)
Fantastic experience: I came here a couple weeks ago for the first time. It’s on the high street, and there is close parking available (free after 6:30pm). The gym is quite big, and on my first visit, it was a little confusing getting round because of the two stairs going down stairs and having different rooms for different apparatus. But I got the hang of it quickly. Changing rooms are very spacious too. Shower and toilet area kept clean too.
Negative experience: Still not open on weekends
Positive experience: Super convenient location, friendly staff, good amount of equipment and space. The WiFi is useless and there is a perpetual leak in the basement but otherwise a good PureGym.
Fantastic experience: I like this space love the free weights and more squat racks on lower level. My new spot and love it
Fantastic experience: Good little gym and Marcel's classes are the best!
Positive experience: Good selection of equipment. There is enough space and not so crowded during the daytime. The only downside is not opening on Sat and Sun.
Fantastic experience: Easy to find on my stay in London. All usual pure gym equipment and enjoyed training there.
Negative experience: Can you update the google map because I came to the gym and saying it’s temporary closed
Negative experience: There is no swimming pool in this gym and the toilets are horrible and smell.
Fantastic experience: Love this gym, it's affordable and has alot of equipment, and open 24 hours too! Bear in mind it's currently closed in weekends due to the pandemic
Positive experience: Nice Gym, big and lots of equipment. Down fall - there is no wi-fi, as you working out in free weigh area internet connection gone and music in the gym on very low level. Please get the wi-fi.
Fantastic experience: I had issues with the vending machine and Alessandro was extremely helpful and went out of his way to attend to the issue. I would recommend this gym highly as the staff are always there to help.
Positive experience: Has everything you need from a standard gym. However, it is quite claustrophobic due to being underground.
Fantastic experience: Great gym
Fantastic experience: Always spotless and equipment always working. Looking forward to them being open on weekends too
Positive experience: Small pure gym , during pandemic is finally possible to find a free spot. Missing kettlebells/barbells on the GF. very stinky toilets.
Positive experience: Good equipment to the gym but good lord, how dark is it in here! Low ceiling, no much lighting, it really faces the feeling to be trapped in a cave.
Negative experience: A guy was coughing none stop for about 45 min. None of puregym reacted although I reported it. Online customer care is so so slow. Online app does not function properly. Cheap price though. Still getting 1 star
Positive experience: Basic gym, nice staff but did get something taken from my locker
Fantastic experience: É um ginásio super acolhedor, muito agradável, tem as maquinas de exercícios necessárias. Tem um bom ambiente.
Positive experience: It's a good gym, at a decent price, very central... It gets VERY busy after 5 or at lunchtime so I end up going during working hours. The instructors and classes are very good.
Positive experience: Good gym, but sometimes quite busy.
Fantastic experience: Great selection of equipment and reasonable cost for the area
Fantastic experience: Better than average gym. Nice location. There aren't too many members so can use the equipment without waiting.
Fantastic experience: Una muy buena ubicación y una caminata de 5 minutos es una gran distancia de la estación.
Positive experience: Una bellissima esperienza. Sono stato in città qualche giorno e ho fatto che andare in palestra per allenarmi un poco. La palestra è vermanete eccezionale, con qualsiasi tipo di macchinario possibile. Grandissima disponibilità di pesi e attrezzature. Pulitissima. È sopratutto aperta h24. Peccato non poter stare di più...
Positive experience: To small and too full. If I had other options I wouldn't go here
Fantastic experience: Better than my gym. Lots of equipment
Positive experience: Feels extremely cramped
Fantastic experience: Membership here is worthy. Have student discount. Wonderful gym.
Fantastic experience: Great selection of classes, well equipped
Positive experience: Music (way) too loud. Great otherwise.
Positive experience: Cheap and practical in Farringdon - classes are excellent when you can find space on them. Facilities are good and plenty of running machines available at peak times. It's a bit dingey and dark but has everything you need equipment
Fantastic experience: Lovely new gym, with young trainers, enough new equipment , open 24 hours, with normal showers not garden sprinklers like Westcroft and other gyms...
Fantastic experience: My favourite PureGym. Weights room is isolated on the bottom floor with unobtrusive music and dimmed top lights. Best time to go is after the lunch rush around 3pm.
Positive experience: Have been using this gym for a few months now, and it's great value for money! Really big free weights area downstairs which is great, and looks like the offer lots of classes too. Very good value for money if you're after . a simple place to work out.
Positive experience: I used this gym while on a work trip in London and it worked perfectly fine. Convenient, open 24/7, Inexpensive, and didn’t have to talk to any staff. Several of the lockers are broken and no one re-racks the weights, but for the price I don’t really care.
Positive experience: Bonito
Positive experience: Equipment is far better than any other Central London Pure Gym I have visited since they inherited the SohoGym one. Lockers are way better than any other. The place is darker than usual, low lights in the bottom floor where the free weights are, are very annoying as they dub spotlight in your face. Also, downstairs is way more humid and smelly and workout isn’t pleasant. Plenty of dumbbells and barbells downstairs. Plenty of modern treadmills and steppers on the main floor with LCDs. Water dispensing and vending machines on main floor. Some cross-fit equipment available as well in the main floor. Clean place and friendly staff. Main advice - improve air quality downstairs. Very hard to breath, dumpy and smelly. Ground Air cons could be optimised not to blow on the equipment where one works out, same applies for lights.
Positive experience: As the name suggests it is just a gym. No extras included like sauna, towels, etc. In general it is good with good equipment.
Positive experience: Pretty much as you'd expect from a central London PureGym. Gets busy in the evening
Positive experience: Pros: Surprisingly big Good range of equipment Visible staff during the 9-5 hrs (I've not been outside of these hours so won't vouch for any other times) Easily accessible products (water / bars) Everyone in the gym seems nice! No Gymbox posery types (yet!) Cons: Changing rooms are a bit tired
Fantastic experience: Changed from Soho Gyms to Pure and it's SO much better. They kept all the best bits and improved on it!
Fantastic experience: Renovate pure gym good staff digital machines. Nice plqce to training, bad no have parking.
Positive experience: Always enjoyed working out here staff are very friendly but too young not sure I feel safe trusting many of them if I lost control of a barbell but generally good atmosphere easy to get on with your workout. More office workers from out of town use it so watch lunchtime if you want the cables nice little pool clean showers changing rooms. Now Pure Gym have closed it and taken over with their reputation I,m pretty concerned as it's my local gym not that they care about quality just quantity that's my main concern with these mega chains moving in. I don't mind paying more for service and good machines and facilities £15 a week not much now it's down to £26 I think. Who knows what they,ll do in the long term I wish they'd just stayed in Holborn till they got that one right we'll see.
Fantastic experience: It may look small, but has a lot of machines and good facilities. We have been using this gym for more than two years now and can not be more pleased. The locker room is also very clean and well kept. The only one problem I faced was that the cleaner in the ladies room was very rude (more than once and asked us to leave about 5 minutes before the closing of the gym). But still the gym deserves 5 stars!
Fantastic experience: A little expensive but worth the price. The treadmills and elliptical had touch screens with info and TV that you could connect to your Soho app to track your workout
Fantastic experience: Excellent gym and location. Clean friendly and more importantly has no ego (so nice to be able to focus and not worry about attitudes).
Positive experience: Not bad, felt it was looking a tad tired. Staff friendly and the included swimming pool appreciated.
Negative experience: Worse worse and worse .trainer was giving training to some one he forced me so many times to leave gym equipment for his client .We pay for gym as well and we have equal right to use gym but he gave prefrence to those peoples who booked session with them . Gloves are full of nasty disgusting smell .
Positive experience: Nice equipment and layout
Positive experience: Has great facilities for central London including an indoor heater pool and saunas. Its well staffed and is not too expensive too. It can be a bit smelly in certain areas and is not as fancy as some other gyms but its great for its purpose if you're looking for somewhere to go during lunch or after work. Never too busy either...
Positive experience: Gym is a bit cramped but I mostly go at 9am when everyone else is at work so no big deal for me. Facilities are clean and showers are awesome.
Fantastic experience: Cant ask for more for the price and location. Staff is really helpful and friendly
Fantastic experience: A great gym right next to Farringdon Station. Considering the facilities and classes available it is great value for money. It can get quite busy after work between 6 and 8, but what gym doesn't. If going in the morning (which I normally do) it is manageable and people are more than happy to share if there is high demand. Plenty of lockers, a sauna, good showers and to top it all off a 15 meter pool.
Negative experience: Had my private locker opened and all my belongings taken. The staff and manager were completely unhelpful. All I got was a "sucks to be you" reaction. I've had to go hunt down the manager every time to get a response and still nothing even though the whole damn place has CCTV and my bag is very easy to spot. Don't waste your time here. Go to MOB45 down the street instead.
Negative experience: Music too loud and invasive. bored of telling the staff so resulting to the internet. why oh why when most people are wearing headphones do they have to play the music so loud.
Fantastic experience: Cheap,good functional area with monkey bars and rings, not too busy. Small swimming pool.
