Emperors Health and Fitness Club: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Great physio department.
Fantastic experience: Unkompliziert und super! Haben in York einen Kurzurlaub verbracht und waren sehr zufrieden!
Positive experience: Pros: Central location, not overcrowded, good mixture of equipment. Cons: A lot of the equipment is old and worn to the point that it affects how it can be used.
Positive experience: I was in York for one night and wanted to workout. The staff were happy to facilitate. The gym has a friendly yet focused atmosphere. People were there to work seriously. Some of the equipment is worn but they have what matters. I liked it a lot.
Fantastic experience: In York on holiday and contacted the gym regarding a day pass. Quick reply and I was in the next morning to train. Staff very friendly and a great set up in the gym. Will definitely be back next time we are in the city
Positive experience: Cleanliness was a big issue
Fantastic experience: What an absolutely fantastic time I have had the last 4 weeks on the boot camp you have been running at the gym and especially to Karen the instructor taking the classes , 3 a week for 4 weeks lasting an hour each class and not one class the same . Karen you obviously put a lot of thought planning each session and doing the class with us .Working so hard has given results ,my fitness and especially stamina has really improved . The one thing all of it has been is fun ,arriving each morning with a smile and leaving with a smile . I’ve been a member at emperors gym for some years now finding it a lovely and friendly place to come and workout .
Negative experience: Been going to this gym for 15 years when I come to York. Today will be the last time. The customer service was pretty shocking. After paying for my day pass, I politely asked if they still give towels as when I have been in the past they have been provided, he responded "no" I said OK no problem went up to the changing room then remembered I didn't have a locker key so I returned downstairs to the desk and asked if I could have a locker key, the said nothing rolled his eyes then provided. When I was leaving and returned he said nothing, he was generally quite aggressive. I don't know what his problem was. In future I will travel further to another gym where I am.sure they will have friendly professional staff.
Positive experience: Spacious but old equipment - in need of an overhaul
Fantastic experience: Great local gym and really friendly staff
Fantastic experience: Despite the equipment being a little dated, it is all fully functional and enables a great workout range. Aircon has recently been installed in the cardio area which remedies the only issue I used to have. Staff are great (especially Richard) and so is the music. They even skip Sophie Ellis Bextor if she invades the playlist. What more could you ask?
Fantastic experience: TOP GYM TOP STAFF AND BANGING MUSIC
Positive experience: Friendly staffing, Equipment bit old but fully working.
Positive experience: Pros: Great class and PT instructors - Deena, Tori, Hannah that I’ve tried. Classes are plentiful, quality and in a spacious studio Bathroom is pretty good (looks only a couple of years old) with hairdryers, ample lockers and toilets Wide range of gym equipment Negatives: 2 of the showers don’t work No hooks in showers or on doors No shampoo in showers Gym area with cardio equipment is boiling General aesthetics are very late 90s early noughties but not in a good way Gym equipment is rusty and dated. It’s very old and seriously needs replacing. It looks dirty as it’s gone past surface cleaning. The whole place needs replastering, air conditioning, painting, new windows / roof Drinks for sale are processed energy drinks / pre packaged cappucinos
Negative experience: Shocking customer service, overcharged by 150 pound, admitted to it and still haven't given it after 3 months. DO NOT GIVE THIS GYM YOUR CREDIT CARD DETAILS. Do not risk it, Ebor fitness is a far better gym and half the price anyway
Fantastic experience: Recently joined and is a great gym with enough facilities for the majority of exercises. Good vibe of people just cracking on, quite quiet during the morning (6:00-8), same with lunch (13:00-14) same with evenings (17:00-18) Resistance training including machines for back, chest, biceps, legs, Smith machine, benches, barbells + more. Cardio including spin bikes, treadmills, rowing machine, stepper, cross trainer again to name a few. Similar prices to other gyms with multi options and classes are included in membership e.g HIIT sesh in the morning
Fantastic experience: Friendly and with great instructors
Fantastic experience: Love this Gym, ace staff and not too busy! It's great
Fantastic experience: Great gym. Feel super comfortable here and brilliant equipment.
Fantastic experience: Great gym.
Fantastic experience: All your favourite Yorkies in a very clean and no nonsense gym.
Fantastic experience: Great gym that does what it says on the tin. Good value and great location.
Positive experience: Great student membership deal, my favourite yoga classes and very nice staff. Beautiful old building. My two main issues are lack of aircond and questionable hygiene of the floors and mats...
Negative experience: A disappointing gym overall. Location is the only thing that kept me going for as long as I did. Small gym, with limited equipment (3 pec decs is just overkill and could do with another squat rack), members are unfriendly and that also goes for staff. Special mention to the tattooed and bearded member of staff, who is honestly one of the rudest individuals I've ever come across, especially in a customer facing role, where it was too much effort for talk to a paying customer needing a locker key, whilst he was finishing off a text message. £37 a month for a gym where you are having to wait for machines or change your work out depending on how busy it is. There are other gyms within the York centre, who are cheaper and have better facilities. I've now left, choose to drive to another gym that adds on 30 mins on my journey, where I can finally enjoy going to the gym.
Fantastic experience: Nice gym and equipment
Positive experience: Genial!!!
Fantastic experience: Lovely staff, always helpful and friendly. Clean equipment, plenty of space to work.
Fantastic experience: Good monthly price, not really busy, have all the equipment you need, clean changing room with showers, friendly staff
Negative experience: Some of the classes get regularly cancelled with the instructors going MIA and you're not inform about this until either waiting for the class to begin or they don't bother to tell you even then and you have to go down to the desk, losing more time. Staff is hit and miss, although common with all of them is that you never or rarely see them going pass the desk, if they are there to begin with. It often happens you come to the desk and there's no one around and you have to get the key for the lockers from them, as well as your membership card as these are swapped when you enter/leave.. There's no cleaning as necessary, paper rolls and sanitisers can be out with staff present but you have to go and point out that out of 3, two paper rolls are out. Music seems not to be their worry either. it's either really low or really loud, depending who's behind the desk and it seems to be dependent on staff's personal choices which means you might end up listening to all sorts, this was something that sounded like heavy metal at one point. Staff is also often oblivious to temperature levels and the fact that it's boiling in there but they can't be bothered to turn on the fans or open the roof/ windows. So while the location is great, gym is okay...the whole experience is dampened by the lack of interest in actually providing a service.
Fantastic experience: Great gym with all the necessary equipments! Brand new changing rooms, good classes and so happy to have Sara as my PT! She is incredible!
Positive experience: Need some new kit but good gym and friendly staff..
Negative experience: They have Shit thing for sport
Negative experience: No single day pass available how pathetic useless
Positive experience: Great instructors but would like more weekend classes!
Negative experience: Prices have become extortionate in the last year, the changing rooms are disgusting and something really needs to be done about the temperature and humidity. It would all be tolerable if the equipment were up to date and in state of good repair!
Positive experience: Regular gym. Lots of weights, few machines. Lovely studios. Decent prices. It's a shame the management don't care about maintaining equipment. Breakdowns are frequent on the old 2nd hand equipment and things stay broken for weeks on end. Staff are friendly and on hand when you need them.
Positive experience: Although the gym equipment is limited, there are plenty of amazing classes and the staff are lovely
Fantastic experience: Love that it opens at 6. Clean gym, friendly staff, great monthly price.
Fantastic experience: I like yoga and pilates classes there.
Positive experience: Tough Fat burn class!
Positive experience: Been a member here for years. For what is available, its very good value for money. Good range of free weights. Loads of classes available. Resistance swimming pool. Cardio equipment could do with replacing with newer models, needs more car parking spaces!
Fantastic experience: Been a member for years and I don't think there is a better gym in York! The atmosphere is one of a kind and the members are great.
Positive experience: Great staff, great classes, fun atmosphere. Lots of options if you want to workout on your own or if you want to try a class. The classes aren't too long and the teachers are excellent.
Positive experience: Good gym with a nice mix of equipment.
Fantastic experience: Loved the step classes on Wednesday nights! Really fun and affordable!
Fantastic experience: Old school gym at a decent rate
Positive experience: Fine variety of equipment to hit all parts of the body. Staff seemed nice as well and the gym was overall fine if you need a quick workout. I will however say that a lot the hand weights were very worn to the point of me being unsure about using to hand weights at once. Since I'm only in York for vacation I don't want to buy a full membership, but willing to pay for a day/week pass, however they only offer monthly subscriptions which I think is a shame. Overall a fine little fitness with a good variety of equipment.
Fantastic experience: Great gym!
Fantastic experience: Very good
Fantastic experience: Fantastic bang for your buck
Fantastic experience: Only needed it for a week but it was perfec5, had everything
Positive experience: Good range of free weights. Also lots of weight and cardio machines if that's what you're looking for. In case you're not looking for a long term subscription you can subscribe on a monthly basis. I suggest to go in the morning as it gets really crowded around 5-6 PM.
Fantastic experience: Love the vibe of this gym. Feels bespoke not corporate and a good range of free weights :-)
Negative experience: Hola!!!! Soy de Argentina y en su página de Facebook ofrecen el Acai Berry, el suplemento dietario para adelgazar y la cara de la publicidad es SUSANA GIMENEZ. Quiero comentarle que el 04/01/2014 hice una compra de tres frascos + tres sin cargo y aboné con mi tarjeta de crédito la suma de 97,02 dólares, que hasta el momento no recibí el producto y ninguna información de la compra, ya que la misma será cobrada por Uds. por medio de la tarjeta. Espero sean Uds, los de la página de Face ya que mi condición económica no es de la mejor y no me gustaría perder esta suma. A nla espera de una repuesta y con la ilusión de no se ESTAFADA saludo a Uds. Atte.
