The gym should seriously consider placing a hold on new members. Waiting over an hour for a piece of equipment like a squat rack is common during peak times and quite frankly difficult to justify.

Great Uni gym, economic prices that do not mean the quality of the equipment is subpar (only problem is some machines break down and are not replaced 1mkntj and half and going)

Good price for student and Many good programs in here. But difficult to book. I wanted to use swimming lane but never succeed to book.

I’ve been going here for 3 years (almost every day out of lockdown for the last year) and I’m not exaggerating when I say I think it’s the best gym in the UK. I’m moving away from Edinburgh soon and I will miss this place terribly. AMAZING equipment range/access and facilities, is split up over lots of different rooms so is less intimidating and you can really focus on what you’re doing. Lots of bathrooms (including gender neutral) and friendly staff on hand. They do challenges every month or so so there’s a real gym community feel. Because there’s a lot of students it’s generally a comfortable and progressive atmosphere and I absolutely love it. Also have been really really considerate and on the ball with upping hygiene standards since Covid. I love you Pleasance!

P. H.

Excellent gym overall, one of the best I’ve been to anywhere, huge, clean and extremely well-equipped (a shame some rooms are closed now for renovations). One weakness is that the signage is really poor, especially for first time (or second, or third-time) visitors. The layout is a maze-like labyrinth of corridors and staircases, it’s very easy to forget how to get to a room or just find it purely by chance. Visible signage with pictograms, rather than just long lists of room names which mean nothing to a new user, would be more helpful. The signage which does exist also isn’t in places you would want it, like under a doorway or hanging from the ceiling, when you turn a corner, or at the staircase you are thinking of going down or climbing so you stop, perplexed, because you don’t know where it will lead you to. Red is not the best colour for signs if it's also the main colour of walls inside the gym. A map might even be handy. I know this isn’t an airport, but it would make the place more user-friendly.

One of the best gyms of the country. It has a LOT of machines and even when it is full, one can still find a spot to do one's own exercises. The gym also offers Squash courts for rent as well as an array of equipment. Also has a nice climbing venue and a fairly decent multi-purpose hall. The classes are also really nice and the bathrooms are always clean.
