Robert Burlui 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great customer service and great gym to attend to Also a big thank you to carolina. She is just amazing when comes to customer service

Aaron O'Kelly 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I was totally confused by this place. It says it's a leisure centre but I couldn't find anyone doing any leisurely pursuits. Instead they were using gym equipment, swimming, spinning and various other sporting activities. I think it should probably change its name to sports centre!

Fantastic experience: Great nights swimming for Herts Swimming Leqgue

Mark Tipper 2 years ago

Positive experience: I've used this sports centre for years and although there is nothing wrong with the venue it could be a while lot better, the swimming pool is very cold and the showers run hot and cold after your swim which is painful in the winter. Overall its a great place to keep fit and stay healthy. Will continue to go here as its local to family.

Andy W on Gower 2 years ago

Positive experience: Always good to enjoy a swim in the outdoor pool in Hemel. The indoor changing areas have always been a bit smelly here, and our visit was no exception. It's a problem that has beset this Sports Centre since it was built in the 1970s. Other places do not have this problem. It lets Hemel down, and it is a great shame that it has never been dealt with.

Fantastic experience: Excellent visit. Can't fault the place. Helpful staff. Brilliant gym equipment. Had problems signing into my phone app but a member of staff helped me finally log on to the app so that I can make bookings to use the gym or swimming pool from the app. The gym is spacious and comfortable. The lockers are good. You pay a refundable £1 to lock up your belongings in the gym. There are clear directions on the floor of how to get to the gym or swimming pool. On the whole a nice friendly helpful leisure centre.

Alina Matei 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was doubtful about joining this centre, but I must say that I love it. Great variety of classes, even though I never seem to be able to join any as they overbooked, great gym with awesome equipment and is nice and clean. Also it just feels different from all the gyms I have been to, and I have seen loads, and is very bright and relatively quiet when I go.
