Fantastic experience: I like this place because it has a very large weight training area, swimming pool with toboggan, bathing area, dance classes, but I think they should improve in cleaning, a lot of dust in the weight training area

Fantastic experience: Been using this leisure centre for over 20years. Newly refurbished. Nicely laid out. Good variety of activities for all ages. More homely than the bigger leisure centres.

Teodor KInov 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I'm happy with my experience, kids are running around and sometimes being noisy, but there is a study room where it's very quiet there. Helpful staff, I was using only the library so I don't know much more, there are PC's if you need to use and also adapters where you can charge your own laptop, mobile phone and whatever else you have. The membership is free if you're just using the library, you can rent CDs and DVDs, books and even download songs using one of their features.

Susanna 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: First time I have visited this Leisure Centre and really enjoyed it. There is a small free car park to the side of the building and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The changing rooms and showers were clean and the pool well managed. The only down side was the lack of air conditioning, but given the age of the building it probably wasn't something considered at the time of the build. So, free parking, friendly staff, clean well managed pool and changing facilities, good atmosphere, will definitely return.

Grace Jin 2 years ago

Positive experience: I've been going to this leisure centre for years. There's always been a friendly atmosphere from all the staff and a wide range of classes on offer. Even during lockdown they offered outdoor classes to accommodate some of us fitness fanatics and it was a welcome relief. The pool and gym is always readily available and clean, and queries are always answered really quickly if necessary. An environment suitable for friends and family and it's handy with a carpark just to the rear

Olivia Kennedy 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I wasn't aware how many things are on offer at Thamesmere Leisure Centre, as I was travelling further away for the gym. I love the classes, they have dance, spin, body conditioning, Aerobics, HIIT ect. The favourite for me is dance as they have great music and its so fun plus all the trainers, staff and members are so lovely and welcoming when it's your first time going. There is also the gym and swimming. I have done adult swimming lessons and they have really helped me get better at swimming. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to join a gym for fitness classes, swimming or the gym.

TIM LAVALLIN 2 years ago

Positive experience: Not the best pool in the area but the prices reflect this. The training pool was very cold and my 2yr old was shivering as soon as we got in. After some time though he did adjust but it was still cold. The showers were OK and did get warm enough to warm us up after the pool. They do have free hairdryers which is a plus but the changing rooms were freezing and had no heating! This is something that needs to be sorted out.

Marc 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: We used take our daughter to Shooters Hill for swimming lessons but didn't see much progression over nearly 12 months. Since moving her to Thamesmead Leisure Centre, the teachers been excellent, they look for ways help her improve and as a result, we have seen her move through the grades very quickly. We are very pleased we made the switch.

Samantha C 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I am not local to the area, my phone had run out of battery, and I was hopelessly lost! Were it not for the amazing Rosie and Lydia in the library section, I would still be wondering around lost in Thamesmead. They were so kind and helped me on my way. They are a real credit to Better Thamesmere Leisure Centre.

Fantastic experience: Lovely pool, very warm. Flume looks excellent but currently shut due to COVID. Great, friendly staff. Smooth booking and check in procedure. A little confusing if it’s your first time as you’re not meant to use changing rooms but overall a great experience, looking forward to returning.

Robert Howe 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Considering the time of day and with a wheelchair user. All staff members we encountered blew our expectations. Lewis made sure we where shown to the changing rooms and the pod was ready to assisted him into the pool. Nothing was too much for all members of staff we where made to feel welcome. The staff where all very supportive and made the nervous wheelchair user feel safe and support all the time we where in the pool. Credit where credit is due keep up the good work guys. Looking forward to our next visit
