Reviews of David Lloyd Finchley

o.

Great leasure Centre/ social club. Lots of parking space . Staff are amazing very helpful and polite. The facilities are on another level. For example they have a 3 month spa centre which is absolutely crazy. Some parts still are not finished but its an amazing experience. They even have massage guns available I'm the gym. The personal trainers are well knowledgeable. And the outdoor pool and jacuzzi is such a joy . I'm yet to use the tennis courts and book a yoga session . But there is so much to do here

J. P.

I love this place because of their great tennis facilities and the swimming pool. The tennis staff are warm and incredibly accommodating! Looking forward to the newly renovated spa to open soon!

E. R.

I find the gym to be very clean and the equipment it’s great. Although it’s a bit busier in January it’s still the best gym I’ve ever been to. I find the staff to be really nice, especially Charlie from the front desk who is always really pleasant and patient and happy to help with any requests or questions I may have.

B. T.

My tour was impressive, the service and staff all friendly and professional. Will definitely sign up.

P. Z.

It’s one of the best gyms in North London. I’ve been to Enfield and Chigwell too as Finchley takes the cake. The gym floor is well laid out and has equipment that’s brand new and some I’ve not seen in any other location. The spa area is absolutely a must visit and last week we spent around 4 hours just there. Very much worth the membership.

H. T.

The club is going through major renovations so it’s not at its best at the moment, having said that the staff are super helpful to make your experience at the club enjoyable. Gym facilities are fab so much to choose From with personal trainers to help you achieve your goals, thanks Ben for your good advice. Lots of classes to choose from. My favourite place is the outdoor pool in all weathers as it’s a perfect temperature. I’m very excited for the new spa I will be moving in for the winter. Been a member for 32 years it’s my happy place 🙏

L. K.

Lovely outside pool. Most of the staff are pleasant and welcoming. Inside pool and changing rooms are all clean and tidy. Nice clubroom. Easy booking for badminton, tennis and groups. Cant wait for the work to finish on site especially the spa facilities. Family orientated. Large club with lots of tennis courts available. Have enjoyed it so far...

A. L.

The new spa is incredible! Tennis courts are good. Staff is well-trained and friendly. Aside from one or two oddballs.

H. S.

Good relaxing place but not worth £180 a month membership fee. Council run places are just as good for a lot less money. I visited Vigin gym as well who charge £85. Again not worth paying so much just for the "name". The only difference is the type of people you meet there.

L. P.

Great all round gym, lady at the desk could be more helpful rather than depending on colleague to serve all.

S. U.

The gym section is outdated as well as the whole club when you come to think of it. Even cheaper gyms have a better gym area.

R. o.

Very racially biased staff,got body warmer with keys and a phone stolen from the locker rooms,and not a word from the administration,after they promised to investigate and get in-touch.Will still go because it’s a very nice club and one or two staff members are nice.

D. N.

Following on from my review below whereby I was told the management team would contact me, no contact has been made. Last night the bar was closed at around 9:25pm so we could not get a drink. Also the club is being turned into a spa so more outside tennis courts are being lost to this. Since joining 2 inside tennis courts have also been re-purposed so it is hard to book a court. David Lloyd club at Finchley has good facilities including indoor and outdoor tennis courts, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a large gym and various classes. Unfortunately the bar closed early so the social side of the club is currently severely lacking. The current excuse is Covid-19 but the bar closed early before Covid-19 existed. Management say there are not enough people but that is of their own making as when it was busy they started closing the bar early. All other David Lloyd clubs keep the bar open until the club closes and the fees for Finchley are significantly higher than the other DL clubs.

D. D.

Great gym refurbishment. Shame they have reduced the number and weights of the kettlebells and there are on TRXs.

L. B.

I went swimming and had a blast as always with my son. Love you so much Tyler. I Would recommend this DL club to anyone.

D. G.

Nice facilities (gym, tennis courts etc…). The only negative was that the service was a bit slow.

m.

pluses: + good facilities. Large weight room, lots of machines, 2 pools, sauna, jacuzzi, steam room, large cafe. + lots of classes (I don't use but nice to have the option) + lots of regular members - creates a nice atmosphere + big car park. Does get full but only at super peak time (.e.g Saturday morning) + staff are professional and polite minuses: - bit pricey - could be better security. some thefts in changing room (car keys etc.), could be prevented by having more cleaning staff to keep an eye. Same applies for car park.

G. H.

Amazing staff who are warm and helpful, and facilities are so wide ranging there is something for everyone including really relaxing spaces to relax and socialise

U. D.

The new renovations are top quality definitely worth the money

D. T.

Decent enough gym, with good equipment although I wish the dumbells would go up to 50kg like those in Pure Gym. However, there’s a nice atmosphere here, and the staff have been pleasant. Been here a few times with my girlfriend on a guest pass and I do like the gym. Have now recently moved into the area, but unsure as to whether to join or not. This is due to my concern about the massive mountain of a speed hump right before you enter the gym’s car park. It’s high and sharp enough to damage your car, and I believe it’s unecessary as I doubt anyone would be speeding round that specific area. Please do something about this David Lloyd, because this thing is a genuine put off. I don’t want to bring my car here because of this.

G. T.

Very Happy! Moved recently from a Better Gym membership and it really is a world of difference (quite a price difference also it must be said!). Fantastic, clean facilities and I've found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. The pool is clean and not too busy, changing rooms are clean and the gym large and kitted-out enough to never feel over-used. Late opening hours are great also. Very convenient. DL is the only gym I've found that allows 12 years + teens into the gym space at controlled times, which is great for my daughter. All in all a really good experience so far and a really family friendly place.

A. M.

I joined the club recently and only then did I look at the reviews and was quite shocked by some of the negative ones and was thinking to myself that I may have made a wrong decision. But I can honestly say I have not had one single negative experience since joining - in fact quite the opposite. Super friendly helpful staff, a really good cafe, loads of great classes for all levels and I was really impressed that when I joined someone met me to outline what all the classes meant and what would be best for my fitness level. I did my first circuit class last weekend and the other members in it were also really friendly and helpful. So far, so very good!!

R. B.

I used to be a member 10 years ago but joined again recently. The gym was refurbished a few months ago and is really inviting. I enjoy going there with my family. Although I am not on the tennis membership we used the badminton courts regularly and my children have tennis lessons there. The courts are excellent and we don't have a problem booking to use them. The indoor and outdoor pools are clean if not very chlorinated , but nothing a pair of swim goggles can't sort. The club gets busy in the morning but after midday there are plenty of parking spaces. Overall I am very happy with my membership and the staff are polite.

R. T.

I love this gym it's a bit pricey but you pay for what you get. It's very clean and all the facilities work and the gym is very spacious. Has a lovely outdoor pool and indoor pool. They have a nice spa with steam room and sauna. The staff are very helpful, and there are lots of classes you can book online which is good from yoga to body pump. They have have a lovely restaurant and this club is very kids friendly. I enjoy it as I've been to budget gyms and there not for me.

M. B.

The above address is wrong. I really can't get why there are negative reviews on here. I've been a member for 3 years, plus my 7 year old daughter has swimming lessons there and can't see what there's to complain about. It's a very good club, all I can think, is that these must be from competitors of David Lloyd, as looking at the information within the negative reviews, these on the whole are giving fake/false information. The gym is spacious, loads of equipment, (all nearly new, Spring 2016) , two pools (indoor and out), proper Jacuzzi as opposed to Plastic tub, Sauna, Steam room etc, Staff are super friendly and very professional, very customer service orientated. Excellent chill out areas or to grab some food, Changing rooms are large and spacious, never over crowded as one person suggested, and I've been going for 3 years. Huge free car park, no way can you not find somewhere to park...it's huge! There are tennis/badminton courts there too. If you're looking for a top of the range gym and facilities....you've found it. Although it is a little expensive at around £100 per month. There's a good vibe around the place, If you don't enjoy going here - then you won't enjoy going to the gym anywhere.

O. F.

Gym is great with high spec facilities. Swimming is also excellent but hygiene could be improved. Tennis is incredibly over subscribed and unless you book way in advance you will never be able to get a court. My biggest gripe is the extortionate membership costs which don't even include free towels. If it wasn't on my doorstep I'd much rather go to Bushey which is quieter and a little cheaper.

T. I. V.

Parking right in front of the gym as expected which was a must for me. Easy sign up process with good staff. I try to avoid 5-7 pm as it’s always busy during the week, would appreciate if the steam and sauna rooms were bigger as it can get quite busy and tight for space, also there is 4-5 heated beds you can lay on but I don’t think this is enough for the capacity of a facility like this.

J. A.

I have visited a number of DL clubs this year and Finchley is by far the best club in terms of atmosphere and customer service. The front line team are just fantastic. The spa is amazing especially after the refurb. Credit to the management team for creating that buzz. A little pricey but you won't find a better club around north west London.

A. A.

Great club. Could get a bit too busy.

p. k. b.

Overpriced, but saved by good customer service, gym lacks functional space. Given functional training is popular, the gym is somewhat out of date

M. C.

The new gym is amazing! All the equipment is easy to use and it isn't intimating to walk into now as I am not a gym bunny. As for the staff they are all lovely and I managed to sort a Personal Trainer out within my first week being there and she is great! I have no idea what the other reviews are about as I love this gym

O. G.

This is a family oriented gym, I like it because there is a lot to do for a person of any age and interest, from different sports clubs to kids activities, from tennis and swimming lessons to jazz evenings and BBQ days. The staff is very friendly and caring. The restaurant has a good variety of healthy food and there is a good small bar. The club is looked after well, always very clean and updated on a regular basis.

A. P.

Staff are friendly and helpful. The gym equipment is easy to use. The changing rooms are clean I always see cleaners in the changing and shower rooms and also in the gym cleaning the equipment. So far I am happy with my experience. I have recommended it to friends and family and taken them in to DL and they signed up. The crèche is good and the staff and activities for the kids are great. Kids love it.

J. T.

The staff could not be more friendly, helpful and attentive. The customer service and facilities are both of a very high standard. The creche for babies and toddlers is excellent with regular staff who clearly care and are very professional in attending to every detail. Could not recommend more highly.

S. B.

Changed for the better since the new manager took over. He is clearly a professional who cares about his product and reputation. The tennis courts are hugely improved and so is the gym. The new attitude is percolating through to the staff who are utterly charming and helpful. Keep it up because you now have something to be proud of.

V. B.

This is much nicer than my local David Lloyd. Has huge well kept and new facilities

H. H.

I have been a member at David llyods for around 2.5 years. Overall the gym overs a variety of activties, a huge swimming pool indoor and outdoor, a lovely jacuzzi, tennis courts lovely gym with very modern equipment. the family changing facilities are in need of modernisation, its a very pricey gym so be absolutely sure before you sign up. my kids love going and are signed up to a number of different lessons swimming, tennis and karate and absolutely love it. The lead instructors are great and very pleasant in their manner, infact all the staff running these lessons are superb. I like the option of using the restaurant which offers really nice food.

r. k.

Been here almost 8 years this gym has gone only 1 way down - its extremely over crowded - you will not get a minute peace. Changing rooms always smell and your always being nudged by someone using the lockers or standing in a puddle, the spa facilitates are closed at least once if not more times a month - my girlfriend left she only went for the sauna since they made it mixed not only most evenings barley any space to sit, she is constantly been spoken to and to avoid being rude just goes home. I cant wait for the day someone opens a decent clean gym in Finchley or if this Finchley branch just open another one to stop this over flowing! They sitting ducks for a good quality gym to open around the area.

S. D.

My new favourite gym, definitely pricey but the standard of the facility is fantastic

U. A.

Friendly staff, visited at off peak time, plenty of space to train undisturbed.

l. x.

amazing i love it! the gym has all the equipment one could possibly need, staff are really friendly, facilities are incredible. you have to join it is the best!

F. S.

Variety of equipments to use. It has the advantage of having a outdoor pool which is open all year round. Virtual spin classes are fun and no one really goes so it's amazing to go crazy with the stationary bicycles! Male showers smell every time I go :( Comparing it to the clubs in its price league it has the advantage of the outdoor pool and virtual spin classes. I have to warn you that atmosphere of the club is not very active; it's more like a social club than a health club! Also on Saturdays it's like a massive kindergarten! Other than this it's a 3.5 or 4 out of 5 stars. #Justdoit

L. A.

Blade and Aaryan on reception are great, really understood the issues I was having with the head office procedures of emailing, went out of their way to help me and my sons with membership problems which was a fault at head office.

V. P.

I go there cose it's best club in my place ,not cheap.Manly for swimming pool,sauna . Giving 4 stars cause needed to clean a bit more.But over all it's recommended place from me

C. B.

Can be very busy at times so best used when you have the time. Some members arrive with suitcases on weekends, perhaps there is a hidden hotel I have been missing out on. Nonetheless good value for a family of 5

B. C.

Went there for a birthday party for a three-year-old, who had considerable difficulty in getting up all the stairs to the nursery area. It should have been on the ground floor. Good facilities but the hostess of the party was not impressed with the food or the "entertainment", games which would have been more suited to older children.

P. J.

A great gym with many cardio and weightlifting machines and a wide variety of classes available all throughout the week such as group cycling, pilates, zumba and many more. There is an indoor pool, sauna and steam room and a jacuzzi. Outdoors there is another swimming pool which is heated and open all year round (unless there is lightning). However, personal trainers are a little intimidating and distant but that may vary from person to person. The showers are spacious and shower gel/shampoo is provided. Spacious lockers (but you must bring your own lock) and hairdryers are also provided. Overall a good place to spend a few hours a week.

R. R.

Amazing gym and a fantastic team who run it. I've been there for just over 3 years and am very pleased. I really don't know why there are negative reviews on here (guessing they are from nearby gym owners / managers). Dimitris Demetriou

G. H.

Another great Legs, Bums and Core class in regards bag.

P. L.

Pricey but has many facilities. As a member I can say it is very busy. You have to book classes a week ahead to be sure of a place. Some David Lloyds have quite a relaxed atmosphere. This one doesn't. Dominant demographic is 30 somethings.

I. G.

Looks great after the new refurb

S. N.

Amazing refurb and lovely gym to use it is not my home branch but hands down the best DL I have used before. It has made he consider moving over to this location just because of the staff, refurb and facilities for kids.

R. T.

Mostly nice staff, the new spa is amazing I haven’t really checked out the other facilities yet but the spa is to die for. The only ridiculous thing is that they close at 21:45 on a Sunday which is genuinely absolutely ridiculous, they really shouldn’t close until at least midnight and even then. PureGym is open 24/7 and I understand David Lloyds can’t do that for safety reasons I guess but 21:45 is still so so early.
