Nuffield Health Battersea Fitness & Wellbeing Gym: Opinions

3.6/5 (144 Opinions)
francine tattersall 6 months ago

Negative experience: Old, dated gym with zero air con in the weightlifting area, saunas are constantly out of order and constant switching of changing rooms to take turns using whichever sauna is working. There are too many members meaning you cram to get on equipment any time outside of 10-4pm weekdays, considering the price it is really not worth it, go literally anywhere else or sign up to ClassPass like I did!

Renato Fernandes 6 months ago

Negative experience: Huge place with tonnes of potential, but overall disappointing. Negatives: * Unfortunately, the gym area as well as the Male toilets and changing rooms need a major refurbishment. * The Gym itself is a bit outdated. * No clean/fresh towel service provided. * Lockers are very outdated and small, couldn't fit my gym bag inside. * Most of the lockers have broken locks or keys missing or don't work at all. * No seating/cafeteria area (being refurbished, apparently). Positives: * Staff were very nice. * Huge space, with lots of potential. * Car park.

Fantastic experience: I was referred to the joint program in Nov 2024 due to rheumatoid arthritis. Swollen joints and pain had reduced my activity and mobility. I was apprehensive at first because I was the youngest attendee, but everyone in the group attend for a variety of reasons. Now in the 2nd phase of the program, I am attending the gym independently and increasing my strength training. Alejandro has helped me build my confidence again, my inflammation is less frequent and the pain not as severe. This is such a great initiative, I would like to see more of this.

S Bee 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: The JJP programme I highly recommend. Guys and girls, if you have any mobility problems, this programme is a hidden gem. I suffered an ACL injury years ago and lost total confidence in my mobility. I couldn't walk properly anymore without feeling pain, and I had no confidence in my physical appearance due to my weight gain. However, if it wasn't for my trainer, ALEJANDRO!!!! Honey, I wouldn't physically be where I am today! Not only did he help me build strength and muscle, but I also I found great confidence in myself again, I now have a total glow up!!! having courage and passion for working out and getting back to my old self. The exercises he does are unique and a great way for you to build back your strength without being too strenuous and designed to your own personal mobility needs. He is professional, kind, and genuine and takes pride in his work and honesty. I feel fortunate to have had THE BEST trainer! I will be forever grateful

Fantastic experience: I loved my time with Ale, the trainer and the others who were doing the joint pain programme. Ale is a fantastic trainer knowledgeable, compassionate, caring, focussed and only wants the people in his care to get better. My colleagues were important to me too, caring and encouraging. We were in this together. Thank you, Ale.

Eva Decardi-Nelson 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: I was suffering from a lack of fitness, and my joints were suffering, so I joined the Joint Pain Program. It was honestly life changing for me, I gained confidence and actually looked forward to working out, so much so I even started going to my local gym as well as the program. It has helped immensely. My trainer Alejandro was so nice and accommodating and patient. He pushes you even when you think you have done enough. I cannot recommend him and the Program enough. Also the facilities are great and staff are very nice.

Stella 8 months ago

Negative experience: Increasing the monthly membership fee when the equipment is in the state that it’s in is unacceptable. Can’t even run on the treadmill without being electrocuted every 3 seconds

Cally Cally 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: Had PT sessions here for over a year with Alejandro and I can’t speak more highly of him. I started the year a floppy inflexible podgy man and he created varied and interesting sessions that has resulted in me being the strongest I’ve ever been at the ripe age of 40. He is a star and I fully recommend him.

Ross Forder 9 months ago

Positive experience: There was a leak as I walked in. But the staff behind the desk were fantastic, new manager Nick (I think) is great and welcoming. The staff were having fun. Old equipment but again, the staff are great, Ryan I think? Men’s toilets need a serious rethink, horrible

Olga Davis 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: Battersea Nuffield receptionists at weekends are brilliant, and make me feel the most welcomed!

Dr Helen A Deane 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough about how different I have been and felt since joining Alejandro’s joint pain sessions. This is both physically, mentally and emotionally. I am fitter and able to manage myself physically better. But even more so, I am happier and look forward to the sessions. It is sometimes hard to get get there but Alejandro has a way that encourages and motivates me. Thank you Nuffield and thank you Alejandro for changing my life for the better.

Sharon Mundy 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: My training is the best his name is Alejandro, when I started at the Nuffield Health in Battersea I could not walk every well is a lots of thing I could not do, but having a training like Alejandro that knows what he is doing now I can do much better than when I came my health is improving better that gym is the best thank for helping me.

Selina Galliers 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Alejandro enough! After having knee pain following exercise I attended the Joint Pain Programme 12-week course with Alejandro, I can honestly say the results have been nothing short of amazing. Alejandro’s advice and the techniques taught have improved my mobility and reduced the strain that was causing the pain. Each session has been productive and enjoyable and I always felt supported and motivated and now feel more confident to make full use of all the gym equipment. Alejandro is incredibly knowledgeable and his attention to detail and genuine care made all the difference. I am sad that the 12 weeks are up as I will miss the sessions but my knee pain has reduced and I feel stronger and confident in my ability to continue this progress on my own. I am so grateful for Alejandro's expertise, patience and encouragement throughout this journey.

Mizan Rahman 11 months ago

Negative experience: This has got to be one of the worst Nuffield clubs out there, the equipment is completely outdated. They no longer provide towels, when I went to buy a towel 9.20pm I was told I couldn't do this as the tills were closed?! Pretty ridiculous considering they close at 10pm. Lockers don't work half them had keys missing so you couldn't even keep your belongings safely away. This gym is just completely ignored by Nuffield really poor standards considering the area and the fact there's a FF and 3rd Space close by.

muna ali 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: I want to thank Alejandro for helping me in this joint pain programme. He has been very kind, encouraging and has given great advice and support. Thank you Alejandro for all the things you have taught me. I cannot thank you enough!

Nick Rowe 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: Feeling my age, 67, and suffering from arthritis and back pain I was slightly sceptical about the Joint Pain programme before I started but was completely wrong! Thanks to the careful supervision of Alejandro, I was able to achieve more than I thought possible whilst feeling completely safe. The course has changed my life and I’m now continuing to enjoy regular gym visits to give every day an extra spring in my step! Thanks again to Alejandro who is passionate about joint health and an extremely competent and inspiring practitioner.

Raho Roble 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: Thank you so much to Alejandro who helped me with exercises during the joint pain program over the past few months. My mobility and fitness has improved so much thanks to his expert help. I couldn't have asked for a better trainer, thank you.

Dorothy Dawson 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: I have just completed the Joint Pain Project at the Nuffield gym in Battersea and can’t praise the course highly enough. Alejandro was our trainer and although we were in a (small) group, it was as if we had our own personal trainer. Alejandro is professional, knowledgeable and very thorough, and would differentiate the lessons to target each person’s needs. I finished the course feeling so much better physically and mentally, and with a much better understanding of how exercise, and muscle strengthening could, and did, alleviate my joint pain. I also feel much more confident using the gym.

Robert Pestell 1 year ago

Negative experience: Staff are great but, equipment breaks and is not fixed for months, thing gets repaired, works for a few weeks the out of order for months again. This isn’t a one off it happens all the time. Sauna broken for 6 months, head office need to sort it out.

Adam Nordstrom 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Before joining the gym, I had injured my knee and had a slipped disc. Having been out from the gym for close to two years, and what seemed like a re-occuring injury every time I picked up a weight, changed quickly after working out with Alejandro. He helped me get confidence back in my lifting, get my form back when lifting, and understand what my body can manage. He helped me understand my limitings and understand how to listen to my body and understand the type of pain from injury. I have now been back at the gym for 8 months and feel like im back for good. Alejandro, I can’t thank you enough! Lifechanging!

claudette jacobs 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent physiotherapist Alejandro, encouraging and empathetic. I had a great session today. 1 to 1 . I walked in for my session with my walking stick and left the session an hour later and only when I had walked halfway down the street away from Nuffield sports centre. I realised I didn't have my walking stick. My posture was so good and I felt so strong walking that I didn't grab my walking stick as I usually do .This is how good Alexjandro My personal trainer is. I recommend him not five stars but 10 stars

Fariah N 1 year ago

Negative experience: Overpriced for the value you get. Old, rusty and limited equipment. Poorly maintained. Cost a lot of money which isn’t reflected in the equipment. It’s annoying that they close around 8.30pm on weekends. I ended my membership and now go to a better chain that is open 24/7 and has new equipment that is looked after and is bigger. Staff are nice though.

Hassan Abdirahman 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have been on the Joint pain programme with Alejandro and it has been incredibly beneficial. Alejandro provided expert guidance and exercises that significantly improved my joint health and mobility. He’s very attentive, supportive and very dedicated. I highly recommend this programme and Alejandro to anyone dealing with joint pain.

Shirley Ashley 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I started 3 months course with JPP with PT Alejandos. I found him to be a great trainer full of fun and energy. Our sessions were challenging but fun. At the start of the course, I had issues with my knees and walking. I managed to run within the sessions, which is something I haven't done for many years. I am also able to walk longer distances without pain. Thank you so much, Alejandos, for all that you have done for me in getting me more fit and helping me to enjoy the exercises.

Anita Kotadia 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I was very impressed and grateful to Alejandro Gomez to teach me through the JPP for the last 12 weeks. He was always guiding me to exercise the correct way. I had not used some of the machines and he instructed me on how to do it the right way. I also enjoyed the circuit training as it taught me ways to warm up before the exercises. It's got me back into exercising in a nice friendly environment. Big thanks to him.

Kai Macfarlane 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Good equipment and friendly staff! I started with PT Alejandro Gomez Sanchez of Nuffield Health, Battersea, because of a pain in my shoulder that I could not mend myself, but I stayed with Alejandro for his obvious expertise and the undeniable benefits I was observing in my strength and fitness. He has a deep knowledge of the human body and has completely changed my way of thinking about working out for the better. I am now doing exercises correctly and safely, progressing faster, and enjoying working out considerably more. 10/10 - could not recommend more.

william belfall 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have been on the joint pain programme for the last 12 weeks run by Nuffield health and coached by Alejandro!! It has been a brilliant experience and helped me with my knee problems. All the club staff are fantastic and so friendly and Alejandro really made the every session count and more importantly fun!! Full marks from me.

Valerie Lilley 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Had a great instructor Alejandro was very committed. Took on board all our individual issues as a group. Never thought could enjoy fitness training as much as I did. Plan to carry on program with help of some of our group as all feel more motivated when in a group. Sleeping so much better and sure have more stamina to continue improving my general fitness. Highly recommend to anyone with pain and movement issues. Was sad to finish course but know Alejandro Will continue to be on hand to give advice if ever needed.

Chris 1 year ago

Negative experience: Terrible gym. Over priced. Outdated equipment. Squash courts are in poor condition and expensive to hire (£15 for 40 mins for non members). Staff are nice and welcoming but it does not make up for the shoddy conditions.

Nadifa Mohamed Osman 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Alejandro (our trainer) is such an amazing tutor. Before my joint was very painful and he teached me how to release the pain that I had. I've never felt much better. And I am so happy that i was part of it. Very recommended! Thank you Alejandro.

Anna Mendes 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Alejandro was such a brilliant coordinator of the joint pain programme. He took extreme care to ensure that the excercises he introduced each week was the right pace for every member of the team. All the sessions brought a new perspective and challenge and was so enjoyable. I together with the rest of the cohort enjoyed the Salsa dancing class. At the end if the 3 month one to one coaching it was amazing to know how far i had come to understanding the importance of workout. Also my whole body was toned. Thanks a million Alejandro, keep up your enthusiasm and the brillant work you do. Best wishes and regards Ana Mendes

Christos Retsinas 1 year ago

Negative experience: Male sauna hsa been our of order for 3 weeks now. Been told will take another 5 weeks to fit a new one. Prior to that the steam room was out of order for 3 weeks. Equipment often need repair and the yesterday a whole row of male showers was broken. I mean WTAF? Who runs a business like this!??!?!?!?! And to add insult to injury our fees were raised FFS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rachel Smith 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Les Mills RPM with Kenny is a consistently uplifting experience. Kenny's motivational coaching, punctuality, and incredible energy create a dynamic atmosphere. He has a unique ability to read the room and push participants at just the right moments. Kenny's personalized coaching and openness about his own challenges make the sessions relatable and inspiring. His genuine care for participants sets him apart, making him the highlight of the club. While the facilities are commendable, Kenny's classes are the standout feature, making a 100% recommendation well-deserved.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member at Nuffield for a few years. I do a mix of gym workouts and classes - I’d recommend Alejandro’s classes as they are fun, always different and he differentiates for beginners to advanced levels

Aum Thacker 1 year ago

Positive experience: Passed through here on an uncharacteristically sunny yet frosty January morning. Easy enough to get a day pass, nice amenities and never too busy - the steam and sauna, as well as general state of the locker room amenities however left something to be desired. Overall 71 points out of 100

Jan Jan unstoppable 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I attended the joint pain programme, not only did rehabilitation specialist's karoline and Alejandro teach us to exercise safely, we were also taught about diet and stress management. If you suffer from joint pain but your too scared to exercise, then this programme is for you.

Victoria Hodgkinson 1 year ago

Positive experience: Excellent training on the Joint Pain Programme with Alejandro and Karolina but the whole gym is in need of updating/refurbishing. JPP should be more widely known eg GP surgeries.

Sagal Omar 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I was on the joint pain programme with Alejandro and with occasional support from Karolina. It was outstanding! The exercises, the fun vibe and the actual recovery were fantastic! My before and after was like night and day..such big leaps in overall fitness and joint improvement! I would wholeheartedly recommend this FREE 3 month programme! You can't beat it! The gym is great too! Loved the steam room and sauna and all the staff are so friendly and helpful!

Maria Antunes 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I started the JPP in May and it has helped me a lot with my flexibility and general fitness. Alejandro and Karoline were so knowledgeable in teaching exercises for joint & muscle pain and how to apply these to every day life. Alejandro still continues to give me so much support and always willing to help everyone.

Corina Outterside 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Back to fitness with amazing direction and support from Alejandro! I gained movement I never thought I would ever again. Amazing course and even more amazing instructor! Thank you Alejandro

Deborah Wing 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Joined the Joint Pain Programme a year ago which was led by Alejandro and Emily. I cannot thank them more than enough (both) but in particular Alejandro who dealt with our group twice a week for 12 weeks giving each of us our confidence and purpose back. Although we was dealt with as a group we was also dealt with as individuals and our individual needs giving us the tools, confidence, knowledge to improve our movement, pain and understanding and just the kindness which gave a sense of purpose. Thank you so much Alejandro and Emily for all of your hard work and giving back the confidence that had been taken away just from being unfortunate to have an injury or illness that had destroyed mobility but made to feel that it was your fault. Also - what a great bunch of ladies that I met and became friends with!!!

Marion Ford 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I'm part of the JPP (joint pain program), which finished before Christmas. I had a great time on the course. It helped me to learn how to move correctly, and Alejandro, the team leader, made the sessions really enjoyable and welcoming. This environment was new to me, and to others on the program. I met some lovely people and we made friends and all supported each other. Thanks Alejandro for introducing me to a way of moving that I can do despite having pain and restricted movement.

Mark Hodgkinson 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve recently completed a (free) 12 week Joint Pain programme. Less painful than it sounds. Alejandro was a sympathetic, considerate but quietly demanding instructor carefully tailoring exercises to ability but bringing everyone, myself included, forward by leaps and bounds over the course. These things aren’t meant to be fun but he somehow made sure we all enjoyed ourselves despite some occasionally demanding sessions. It has re-fired my enthusiasm for this kind of exercise and as a pretty old man I’m more than grateful to him for that! Thank you!

Nesha Baltic 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Thank you Alejandro for the 12 weeks of training. You are a star. When I first started at Nuffield I was in so much pain - especially my upper arms and shoulders and also problems with my balance. Now I can lift my arms above my head due to your wonderful training. I can also report my balance has really improved. Even though the group was doing the same exercises you got us working at our own level. Most of us ached afterwards but gradually our pain subsided. You inspired me to continue exercising which I realize now is good for my own well-being. Thank you for your kindness, gentleness and encouragement during the weeks I attended the course. Thanks for impressing upon me the importance of continuing to exercise after the end of the course, after all it will only be beneficial for me and my whole well-being now and in the future. Thanks again Alejandro!!☺️ May I also say, that the course is brilliant and I would encourage anyone who needs help with pain management to join the course.

maria lozada 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I was very happy with the experience in my 12 weeks Joing Pain Programme. I was very impress with the knowleged, pacience and understanding show by Mr Alejandro towards everyone of us, the gym was something new for everyone but he, (Mr Alejsndro), encourge us to learn to use all the equipment whithing yhe gym and I notice that my wellbeing has improved a lot.

Jenny Thomas 1 year ago

Positive experience: I have been on a ‘pain course’ which has been brilliant. Guidance and support has been excellent and very supportive over 12 weeks. Individual analysis was very helpful to go forward with a training plan. A great range of classes to chose from

Elizabeth Richards 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I was fortunate to join the Joint Pain Programme @Nuffield Battersea and was lucky to be in Alejandro’s class. He was a patient and thorough leader, he ensured that we all had a one to one experience in all the exercises. I thoroughly enjoyed my 12 weeks programme with Alejandro and would love to return to Nuffield Battersea.

Jennifer Bainbridge 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This is a review for the joint pain programme at Nuffield Battersea. Shout out to Alejandro for his patience and adaptability in running these sessions. Our group had varied conditions to be catered for. The programme is a great help to stabilise, strengthen improve balance and add flexibility where possible. It's also fun and gym is less scary in a group!

C J 1 year ago

Positive experience: I joined the Joint Pain Program run by Alejandro and Karoline in the summer which was a great reintroduction to the gym for me after a period of non-attendance during Covid. Really enjoyed the program which was a mix of gym and cardio, also various classes inc Pilates and Dance. The twice a week regime really helped me get back into gym routine, lose some weight and improve fitness. Alejandro and Karoline are excellent trainers. The only reason for 4 stars not 5 is due to the condition of some of the facilities, e.g. the men’s changing room which needs a refurb, as noted by others.

Grace Ayanfalu 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I attended the Joint Pain Programme with Alejandro and Karoline as our expert trainers in 2022. Both are excellent trainers as I was shown how to manage my joint pains, through various exercises, to maintain flexibility without injuring myself in the process. I will highly recommend them and the centre to anyone wanting to learn how to exercise without stress.

Sheila Hare 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have to recommend the Joint Mobility Programme I took part in last year. Excellent 12 weeks of sessions with Alejandro and colleagues who changed my life and set me up for feeling I could join a gym, gave me confidence to exercise in the right ways. I was apprehensive about using the machines but the excellent instruction and care of the Battersea staff encouraged me to overcome all these fears. I can’t praise this facility and the staff enough. Thanks so much. Particularly loved the circuit training and the yoga class run by Gideon - so much more than a generic yoga class he really helped me see and change my spine stiffness. Thanks to all for the help.

Sarah Hope-Walker 1 year ago

Negative experience: It’s such a shame when you get newish young, arrogant staff who have serious control issues and lose complete sight of the fact that you are a paying client! The assistant manager thinks he’s running an institution not a gym and can boss clients around. Before literally interrupting someone’s workout and telling them that they can’t take their small bag containing water, lip balm, tissues etc into the gym, perhaps he should ensure that the non stop use of people using mobile phones, non wiping down of machines and leaving of equipment all over the place are adhered to especially after Covid! How unprofessional and rude!

Dave Selkirk 1 year ago

Positive experience: I'll start with the good: I like that's theres parking, and I like the spa music played in the change rooms. Emily was at reception and she is amazing! It's because of her helpful, 5 star attitude this isn't a 1 star review. She really went above and beyond, thank you Emily! The bad: It irks me that this is the same gym as the city branches, they are just worlds apart. I would appreciate more clarity on where offers towels and where doesn't, this is the second gym I have come short at. The toilets and hallways are freezing! The shower cubicals are tiny with no doors, there is one squat rack in the whole gym. The lockers are a different system to the city gyms but you don't find that out till you get there. Again, thanks to Emily that was sorted, but more clarity before arriving!

Jon Frank 1 year ago

Positive experience: I was a member here for a decade, finishing 20 years ago. Went back over the weekend and was amazed at how nothing has changed. Same cardio machines that I saw installed 25 years ago, now looking more tired than I am. Staff were great but the place looks and feels a bit run down - really needs some money spent on it, which I suspect Nuffield will not do under the current circumstances. It used to be a good up market club - now sadly a shadow of its former self.

Ash Phipps 1 year ago

Negative experience: I purchased a day pass to assess this gym and its facilities. The entrance and reception were nice, hence 2 stars. But this is the first private health club I’ve visited with no towel service. I had to buy a towel for £8! The gym was bog-standard and there were a couple of squash courts. That’s it! The women’s locker room contained a sauna and steam room, again standard kit, but no other spa facilities. Sauna was adequate but the steam room wasn’t hot enough. The lockers have metal keys - not something you’d want to bring into the sauna! lol! And weirdly, although the area was large enough to hold a number of sunbeds, only 2 deck chairs were provided for members to relax! lol! There was gel in the showers, I presume was a body wash, it wasn’t labelled. But no swim suit spinner. No tissues or lotions. No sanitary bags in the toilet or dispensing machines. Only 2 bins for a large changing room. They did at least have hairdryers. Honestly this place is super strange for a health club - there’s quite a lot of space but it’s just weirdly laid out and sparsely decorated with lots of creepy corridors. I would never pay health club prices for a membership here! It’s bog-standard at most, community leisure centres are similarly or better equipped - avoid!

J ats 1 year ago

Positive experience: Great customer service but sadly an outdated gym. The equipment needs a serious upgrade. Changing rooms could also do with a refurbishment. Steam room and sauna are big and spacious

Nick Brown 1 year ago

Positive experience: Friendly staff but the gym area is quite tatty and many of the machines need to be replaced and the overall experience updated. At this price point, it doesn't compare so well with other gyms but it is convenient for me.

Positive experience: Overall a pleasant gym but some tweaks could make the experience so much better! - steam room & sauna are great. Shame they closed the jacuzzi which was a unique benefit (and justified the high pricetag considering the gym area doesn't feel particularly premium) - the lockers are quite annoying. Why can't we just bring our own lock instead of fiddling with greasy keys that have been in someone else's sweaty hands/ pocket. I'd say it's unnecessary and cumbersome to carry them around plus not hygienic (also how do you expect us to carry these keys into the shower etc?) Gym area looks dated but is fine and pleasant to use. A more friendly pricing would make it more palatable otherwise an added benefit like a jacuzzi would help justify it. Overall nice gym but getting rid of those annoying keys and just letting us bring our own locks would make a huge difference. A towel service would also be a nice extra. The pricing doesn't really fit the dated gym unless there's an added perk like a jacuzzi.

Fantastic experience: Nuffield Health Battersea's weekly classes offer a variety of cardio, HIT and yoga/pilates classes. They are starting to update and replace the facilities & new spin bikes just arrived. Most importantly it is a friendly gym :you are always greeted with a smile when entering, special mention to Pamis for always being pleasant and helpful.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training at Nuffield Health Battersea for years now. I just want to point out how amazing the staff are. The front of house staff is always a pleasure to see. I am always greeted with a smile, this goes a long way to setting your mood. Lamis, Cash, Emily and Charmaine are so welcoming. I always walk in with a smile and leave with gainzzzz and a smile. A great gym and place to train ❤️

Fantastic experience: I went to Alejandro (PT) at the beginning of this year due to a long-lasting shoulder injury (of 9 years) where I’d seen so many physio’s and osteo’s and had many treatments which didn’t really work. After having regular sessions with Alejandro my shoulder mobility and strength has improved for the first time in years and I was able to climb Kilimanjaro last month (with the backpack) which was my goal. He has a great understanding of the body and adapts exercises in a creative and effective way. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Alejandro and Karoline my rehab specialists on the Joint Pain Programme were amazing. I started having done very little regular exercise and suffering from chronic pain and lack of stamina. I was also very new to working out on gym equipment and felt self conscious. With their very sensitive and intuitive encouragement over the twelve weeks of the course I am now pain free and confident in my new fitness regime. They offered specialist advice and help and adjusted the programme to suit my mobility needs. I thoroughly recommend them and Nuffield Battersea.

Georgia Clarke 2 years ago

Positive experience: I joined this gym around two and a half years ago - despite the high turn around of PTs, usually a good bunch of classes available. Highly recommend Emily’s spin classes - nothing more satisfying than completing the 6.45am class on a Tuesday morning - as well as Alejandro’s classes, which are always challenging but fun, incorporating all kinds of exercises.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of Nuffield for over 10 years and I can honestly say that the PT sessions I have with Emily are by far the best I've ever had anywhere in London or even around the world. Her professionalism, knowledge and enthusiasm for her clients keep me coming back. In fact, I'm a member of another gym too, but I keep my Nuffield membership because Emily get results! I can highly recommend!

Negative experience: Truly awful, was dirty, poor selection of equipment and even though I had membership which included towels, they said didn't apply to them. Oh well... I would avoid.

Hi Adam, thanks for your feedback and apologies for any elements of your club visits that were not to standard. Complimentary towels were discontinued during the pandemic and unfortunately, we are not in the position to reinstate this service at our club. To confirm, no membership guarantees towels, although some Connections locations (e.g. City/Barbican) still offer this as a complimentary membership addendum.

Alejandro Exequiel Peralta Santos 2 years ago

Negative experience: Still the worst and useless management in whole London. Between having a machine at the reception and them, the machine would be 3 times more useful and helpful than the team at reception. No solutions, no answers, no willing to help... Just doing hours behind a desk. Just to collect payments. Not even a hello and good bye from them. Still waiting to someone to give a s.... about what we claim as members. No one takes responsibility to come and speak to you. Today i'm cancelling my suscription, Again, these guys not being clear with this, they want you to cancel before the 15th of every month because the bank agreement. Then it's one month, and at the end 45 days of notice to cancel just to get you 1 more filthy payment of 71 pounds, (the one that they increased because the electricity bills, but they removed the Hot tube. So they charge you more to cover the cost but they give you less).

Bruno Manganelli 2 years ago

Negative experience: Went there for a year. Old equipment, machines sometimes out of use for weeks without repair, many of the male lockers broken / with missing keys for the entire time I went there. Most keys now don't even have a keyring anymore so they are annoying to carry and you have to remember the locker number. Worse yet, they "temporarily" closed the jacuzzi (which to me was virtually its only saving grace and the reason I originally chose this gym) during the autumn and winter periods blaming energy costs, but keeping the membership fee the exact same. As they decided to permanently close the jacuzzi, I decided to switch to the adjacent gym for half the price.

Negative experience: They closed the jacuzzi all through winter to save on costs, price remained the same. They’ve now permanently closed the jacuzzi and increased the price £10 a month. It’s basically a community leisure centre at a huge monthly price.

Nina B 2 years ago

Negative experience: For such a massive venue and great location in the heart of Battersea, it’s a shame Nuffield doesn’t bring this location up to par with the other city-based studios. The gym does have an expansive number of machines but all of the small details really impact the experience, like no free towel service. I was told renting a towel for the day was 8.50, which is an absolute joke. The yoga mats for the class likely haven’t ever been replaced. And there was not a single sanitising wipe in the yoga studio. There’s just some small tweaks the studio could make to really turn this around: 1. Bring back towel rentals free of charge for members, like every other any Nuffield location does 2. Replenish sanitising wipes in the studios and main gym 3. Get new yoga mats for the class studios

Hi Nina, thanks for this feedback and apologies for any element of your club visits that were not to standard. The towel service is now only available at a handful of locations, across the network and I am afraid we are not able to reintroduce this at the Battersea location. We will however look at the other areas highlighted. Thank you again for this feedback. With regards, the Nuffield Health Battersea Fitness and Wellbeing Team

Marc Ortega Gomez 2 years ago

Negative experience: One of the worst gyms in London. The facilities are very old and with a poor maintenance. The staff is like they don't exist. Once the boy’s jacuzzi broke down and it was closed for almost two months. There are leaks everywhere when it’s raining. Definitely it’s a too expensive gym. I do not recommend it to anyone
