It is only £3 for every visit and there are good prices for monthly membership options. My Dad and a friend of mine go there all the time and introduced me to Dowie's. There is also a dojo next door, but I can't comment as I have never attended any classes. Great place for getting your fitness on.

My hotel didn't have exercise facilities so they suggested this gym. I didn't know where it was…read morebut saw it when I went to Rabbie's Cafe (right next door) Located in the basement of an office building is a self serve gym concept. They had a kiosk where you can become a member, buy a day, 3 day pass, etc. if you need any help there is a call button & someone does come out. I got a 3 day pass for about $16 USD. You use a code to enter and exit. They have an abundant amount of cardio equipment, free & machine (Matrix) weights. I visited around 7:00 on a Friday night and they weren't busy, just right. Equipment was newer and in good shape and the floor/area was clean. They also have showers & lockers (need to bring your own lock) as well beverage vending machines. TVs show health tips mixed in with Ads & commercials. Great place for a visitor to keep the workout routine at a reasonable price!

The gym is in a sort of funky area. You have to enter a building and walk down an odd corridor to take some stairs down to the gym. It feels a bit like you're going to a basement. There really isn't natural lighting so it added to that vibe. The equipment is ok. They had enough machines and cardio equipment for most. The weight area felt a little light and small, but plenty to get a quick workout in. The people were quite nice and friendly, something I don't experience much in the states at gyms. In the states it's a laughably competitive environment where everyone tries to outdo each other. Being at a gym while on vacation, where am I going to get a protein shake, or a caffeinated preworkout? Luckily they had a pretty solid little machine there with anything you'd need pre, intra, or post workout. Def come in if you're from out of town, and if you're a downtown local, not a bad option at all!

A substantial amount of thermal/water amenities, all of which feel very sanitary/maintained. I wish I was able to schedule a massage - however, it is completely understandable I couldn't squeeze in an appointment the day of. I felt completely relaxed after my appointment! My only note is that the aroma mist in the salt room did not seem to work (this may have been user error). Additionally one of the showers in the locker room was not in service. Definitely recommend booking here if you are looking for a relaxing day!

The fact that this spa is roof top just says luxury to me!…read more It puts the spa into Sheraton Grand Hotel and Spa, and just off Lothian Road. Mind you they can be quite pricey, but this has all got to do with the image their trying to project, as well as the various treatments they offer. As usual I haven't heard of most of them, but was particularly curious about the rainforest shower. Thankfully, I have a friend who has actually been to the Amazon (they come in REALLY handy!) and basically it's a room with showerheads all over the ceiling, so it seems as though it's raining in the room. Ofcourse if you'd rather just have a facial and a massage, they do that as well. They've got two pools, one of which is thermal, and a gym for those who'd rather "feel the burn" than relax, though I'd rather get in the sauna when there's that alternative.

Treat their long term members with complete contempt. They are a despicable conglomerate - bought…read moreand sold dozens of times money money money .. but its all about your health and well being isn't it ??? Due to the lack of decent private gyms in Edinburgh they get away with the profiteering and pretty poor experience in relation to the fees. Sycophantic management on a mass scale .. only care about taking your money steer clear give your money to the local authority gyms or other independents ! This club is Very poorly run by incompetent passive aggressive management who turn a blind eye to real problems and hide in offices plonking away on a keyboard writing pathetic nonsense about their members. Staff come and go through a revolving door. However, ok facilities and kept pretty clean although this has deteriorated over the years.. Lounge area is nice to sit in but as others comment is not somewhere you would go to relax or have a quiet coffee as it's always full of children bawling and running around. Unfortunately they have a monopoly on indoor tennis courts which hopefully will change in the future. Tennis wise - you can also never get a court due to coaching and kids tennis unless you can get in during lunchtime. At over £144 for 1 full peak adult per month - Not worth it unless you want to live there. Apparently you can't use the new club in Danderhall as it's an Elite one yet this club is a premier ... they're even inventing new ways to make their crap clubs sound more exclusive. This is in part ruined by their constant 2 week deals throughout the year , you ask yourself why am I paying all this when people can use these deals over and over and not forgetting the 3 months notice period meaning a full racket member will pay £1738 per year and 3 months to cancel - During the school holidays (Easter, summer etc..) they always run promotions so forget relaxing by their outdoor pool as it's Scottish Butlins ! All this is fine I guess but they don't tell you this when you sign up , it's not really an adult environment more for families. Long gone are the days where it was an inspiring environment for youngish professionals/ adults it's a glorified, over priced, underwhelming leisure centre. Gym is just ok- it isn't very big and can feel busy with only a handful of people in it , and certainly is not worth the fee , your also not buying into some sort of better gym etiquette, if anything it's one of the worst I've witnessed people sitting on there phones , lost count of the amount of TikTok videos I'm on without my consent ! Most other local gyms have just as good machines and weights and some have a lot more at a fraction of the price, with same or better etiquette. Changing facilities and toilets are completely inadequate for a place of this size and it's membership. Gym staff pour over you if pay for PT sessions otherwise ignore you and all the people sitting on their phones for ages as well as other behaviour.. Don't do anything to enforce rules and for this reason you'd be as well joining a budget gym as the managers are certainly more in tune with members rather than their ego and being the top performing club ... ie ripping their members off the most. Regional manager is horrendous, bullies the staff hence the reason everyone leaves. Very very bizarre culture. Wish Esporta Virgin active/ Nuffield could take it over. I've was a member for 15 years and left overlapped with new membership at Nuffield and haven't needed to complain once in nearly 2 years.

I have to agree with the other reviews on here - David Lloyd is a fantastic place to keep fit with…read morewhat seemed like million of machines. I actually felt a little like I was in an American Movie when I walked into the gym (clearly I have been going to small gyms for far too long). I am not a member but was given a guest pass which I really enjoyed using, the gym was great, the pool was great (indoor and outdoor), sauna, steam room, Jacuzzi - need I go on. The one thing I did notice was that no one spoke to each other (unless they knew each other) which made it feel a little unfriendly. Despite all this I do think the prices are a little high, but then this kind of gym is aimed at people with money (in my opinion) having said that if I am ever in the position where I can afford £80 a month then I will definitely join too.

This is a well equipped gym for all shapes and sizes. You won't feel out of place here no matter…read morewhat age you are. There are regulars who are 70 years + and those at various stages in their journey to get fit/lose weight/be healthy. I have been a member now for over a year. The membership fee is extremely reasonable at £30 a month basic and £36 a month for 6 weekly reviews with a personal trainer. They have up-to-date exercise machines and use new technology such as the amazing and addictive vibro-gym to offer a wide variety of exercises to challenge your body. There are a number of different classes you can attend which are included in your membership fee. Non-members can attend these on a limited basis on a pay as you go basis. Classes such as body balance (yoga and pilates mixed together), spin, body combat, body attack, box a fit and many more are all there to give you a bit of everything. It's recently started opening at 6am so that people can get a full workout before a day's work. There are showers and locker facilities as well as a sauna in each gender's changing room. The staff are extremely friendly and supportive, always ready to give advice. The best thing is that this place has a good atmosphere. There are LCD screens on the walls and on some of the exercise machines which show different channels. You can plug your ear phones into the machine and watch eastenders whilst you run 5 miles if that's what takes your fancy. Definitely good value for your money.

THE BEST gym I have ever stepped into…read more I joined a month before it opened, having seen an add on Facebook and it's been one one of the best decisions of my year. The staff are amazingly friendly, it's not cliquey in the slightest, amazing selection of cardio and muscle machines. Full selection of Les Mills, Kettlebells, Spin, Yoga, Muay Thai, TRX classes etc, all included in your monthly membership. I took the plunge and got a PT to help me get into shape and lose body fat, I can't praise Jim highly enough for being pivitol in my (so far) shifting 3.5st It's a family run gym, so you're always guarenteed a warm welcome from Steven, the gaffer, or any of the rest of the ever growing team of top notch staff. If you're looking to get fit, have fun and feel amazing, New Age is definitely the place to come!

What I especially like about this gym is that there is always at least one member of staff on hand to ask questions if needed and they build you a personalised plan of exercise based on what you hope to achieve. At first I was nervous about this but the staff built me a plan that wasnt too difficult to stick to. The facility also has a pool and jacuzzi and runs a lot of classes, they also do client incentives such as prizes for high attendance. This is nice because it feels as though they want you to succeed unlike some of the bigger chains who just seem to want your money. The only downside to the Edge is that it is quite far out of the city centre but it would be ideal if you work at the Gyle or Edinburgh Park.

YES! Finally a 24…read morehour gym opens in Edinburgh. Pure Gym is situated on the new up-and-coming quartermile in Edinburgh, just a stones throw away from the Meadows and a short walk from the University - ideal for everyone. It only costs £17 a month to be a member of the gym, with a £20 initiation fee which is such a bargain. The gym is a really decent size and is filled with lots of workout machines and weights without being overcrowded. Every member is given a pin code which is used to enter and leave the gym, as well as enter the changing rooms. Classes are available at the gym, such as spinning, and there are plenty of personal trainers on hand to help you with your work out. Pure Gym is purely a gym - there is no swimming pool, sauna or jacuzzi, but there is a sun bed! The gym is never too overcrowded and there are always plenty of machines meaning that no one has to wait in line to use one - amazing.

So I gave Pure Gym a go…read more I've never been a member of a gym, nor have I ever been on any of those mad machines. I tried it for three days to learn the ropes and (since I'm not sure I'll have time for gyming for a bit) to try out a gym while I have a bit of free time. Applying for membership took about 5 minutes, all online and I was good to go immediately. The next day I showed up for my induction which was given by a lovely, relaxed - and most importantly completely not intimidating - lady who was patient in showing the machines, how to use them and explaining the ins and outs. After induction I was left to my own devices, so I tried out some machines. I was there at rush hour (but maybe some days are busier than others) and it was fine. There was no waiting for anything and everyone was friendly. I made the most of my brief membership and had fun. The gym itself, though I can't compare to other gyms, seems well equipped and there seems to be a relaxed atmosphere. The classes look like fun and apparently rarely fill up (even when the online thingy says they have, apparently they recommend you try showing up because there's so many no shows). There's a few rules such as: your stuff needs to be locked up (padlocks are available for £4), you need to carry a sweat towel when you're using equipment (again, available in vending machines) and there's no opportunity to bring friends (you're paying very little so I guess that makes sense!) Overall it was a good introduction to gyming. I had fun. The facilities are adequate, the staff are friendly and the atmosphere is fine.
