Reviews of Nuffield Health The Oxfordshire Health & Racquets Club

j. p.

Great equipment, size and range- the outdoor pool is lovely. But, sometimes one specific member of staff can be rude and I was made uncomfortable with a man in the steam room who said "don't be shy" in a creepy way when I opened the door, which made me weary. Obviously, that's more on the man rather than the gym! But overall, the gym is very big with clean changing rooms, majority of staff are friendly, gorgeous outdoor pool and indoor, as well as a sauna, steam room and hot tub :)

Review of the Nuffield beauty suite: I keep meaning to leave a review about the beauty suite! I’ve been coming for a few years now and every time the experience is fantastic. It is by far the best place to get beauty treatments in Oxford, not just in terms of the skill of the team but the actual environment and surroundings which is clean, relaxing, and very quiet. I have had massages, eyebrow shape/tint, nails etc and the quality is always excellent. I would highly recommend. The website for booking can sometimes be temperamental so it is better to ring.

Very mixed feelings about the gym. This is a totally different experience to the ones in London that are professional and clean with professionals in attendance. It's almost always full, they kick members out of some parts at specific times even though they pay the highest fees in Oxford for access monthly and they don't provide towels like their other tier ones in London plus close earlier and open later. London is a better experience imho

C. G.

Litrally has everything you need in a health centre. Inside and outside pool. Inside and outside tennis the list goes on

Great for training, group classes, swimming and relaxing with sauna/steam room.

Best gym in town. OK--not cheap, but if you join you'll get so much for your money. Outdoor heated pool, indoor pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, steam room, racket courts, excellent gym equipment, hi tech spin studio with colour zone coaching and virtual video options, amazing personal trainers, discounts on physio, lovely beauty salon, healthy food and decent coffee, peaceful terrace area, kids space, clean and calm changing rooms, and above all the best classes I've ever been to, arranged perfectly to suit any schedule. Pure gym and buzz are good and much cheaper alternatives in town, but if you're into group exercise you'll get the best instructors around. People of all ages and levels are members, and I've never once felt awkward like I have with more pretentious places. Overall my membership here has changed my life massively. Highly recommended.

Been a member here for nearly a year now and the club has excellent facilities. The outdoor pool is a real treat, and the gym Is well equipped. The staff and members are all sociable and friendly and everyone seems to be having a good time getting fit.

I used Virgin Active primarily to take my young son swimming. They have 3 pools - 2 indoor and 1 outdoor. They consist of a wadding pool for under-5s, a full indoor swimming pool and a full outdoor swimming pool. He loves it. The staff are friendly and helpful and having a lifeguard about gives me a better feeling of security. They provide towels, waddles and a floating mat, and sometimes can drag up a few water toys on the weekends. If you are looking for a kid friendly club I recommend Virgin Active. They have a creche (not used yet as he's going through an attachment period), cafe with kid-friendly foods, and a small soft play in the cafe for kids to expend the last of their energy. There is loads of events for older kids. They have clearly posted adult-only areas and times for those not wishing to be visited by sticky fingers, though my only niggle is that the locker rooms aren't designed for strollers - everything else is fine. In comparison to city centre gyms, yes, they are more expensive. But, the price isn't very high and the everyone welcome focus is far more preferred for me as the city centre gyms are primarily focused on students and adults.

Pretty good gym; definitely recommend the Beauty centre, which has great treatments with very good products.

A well equipped gym area and reasonably sized indoor pool, as well as an outdoor pool. Reasonably good tennis facilities but courts are in a need of surface renewal. The place suffers from frequent malfunctions of various pool and shower facilities. Pools may be closed or access may be limited, and showers are quite temperamental with frequent temperature and pressure changes. The jacuzzi is small for the size of the club; some days it is too hot, sometimes quite cold. Steam room is cold, and one cannot throw water on the hot stones in the sauna - only dry heat. Cleanliness is a perpetual problem. Showers range from dirty to filthy, the smell in the steam room is foul, and the tables in the cafe are sticky. Benches in the men's changing room have been sourced from a skip or a dump site, and, despite cleaners milling around the changing rooms, they are always dirty. The management of the club just doesn't get the basic notion of hygiene.

Nice gym and changing facilities. Friendly staff. Decent squash courts. Tennis facility massively overpriced and elitist (typical for tennis though) . The club does suffer from recurrent problems- running out of towels for instance. Overall a decent place.

S. P.

My local gym, and one that i have been going to for the last 5 years. The two pools, steam room, sauna and free parking are really the cherries on the top of a lovely gym, with all the equipment you could ever wish for. Well worth the price, especially if going to gym is a lifestyle choice rather than a chore!

A. C.

Brilliant gym, lovely free weights section but could do with some more benches as it often is full. Nice staff, would recommend.

J. R.

Have been in this immaculate gym for a year now. Great facilities, great environment, great trainers, great receptionists and great salereps. Let down by a pretty poor renewal team with poor reliability and poor communication. A bit more work and this could become the best gym in the area.

M. P.

Superb club, best facilities in Oxford and wonderful staff who are a credit to the company. The Reception staff are always warm and friendly as well as all staff on site. I am always made to feel welcome and they go out of there way to be of assistance. Sarah has been excellent in her role and has always been quick to help with our St Clares students. Highly recommended.

C. W.

Nice health club with an indoor and heated outdoor pool. But you have to be a member. The changing rooms are spacious and you can borrow a towel. The indoor pool is quite dark, but nice and clean. There's also a hot tub to relax in afterwards.

G. J.

Great facilities and love coming here. Wide range of classes, nice pools and a big gym area. Food is delicious as well but takes such a long time to come out! Ordered a wrap and some fries and waited for over half an hour when it wasn't even that busy.

P. D.

excellent gym with a full range of freeweights, barbells, kettlebells and machines as well as more than enough cardio equipment. generally friendly staff and clean facilities. bit pricey for my taste, especially since ALL services are included in a membership, rather than splitting them up and have members only pay for what they use

The new gym equipment is perfect and in a nice open layout, both swimming pools are perfect for both leisure and for doing laps. And both the tennis and squash courts are clean and lively.

S. C.

Massage was a Christmas gift, lovely! Had a jacuzzi,swim and a steam room treat. Was so disappointed with the food looked lovely but lacked flavour, ordered the piri piri chicken and avacado bagel so tasteless and so so dry! Please try and season your food so off putting and disappointing, will never eat there again unless standards on the food are improved!

G. S.

A decent gym with enough equipment, although it gets pretty busy. Rather expensive in my opinion. Some reception staff could appear a little more friendly.

J. C.

Rip off. Gym and facilities are great but workers are usually unfriendly (especially the older male receptionist) except the personal trainers, and price is ridiculous for what you get. Go to buzz if you can.
