Nuffield Health Cambridge Fitness & Wellbeing Gym - Cambridge

I love going to this gym. The gym floor staff are so friendly and always happy to offer advice. It's not an intimidating gym at all. It has a good range of classes all through the day that are very rarely cancelled (unlike other gyms I've attended).

Sure, it's getting a little worn around the edges now, but the locker rooms are always kept clean. Oh, and contrary to another review I've read, I found Wiktoria very friendly - and she does a great class!

Don’t understand all the negative reviews!
There is plenty of gym machines and facilities for the amount of members. There is 100+ classes on each week; you can literally do a class every hour if you really wanted to.
Reception, gym instructors etc everyone friendly.
There’s a swimming pool, sauna and steam room, a cafe on site.
I’ve never had a problem!
Yes it’s not super glossy and brand new but if you want that go to David Lloyd and pay an extra £150 more per month!!

I did love this gym. However December it was rammed. After 3 membership price rises in 12 months I have decided to cancel. The equipment is broken, only 1 hot tub ever in use and that’s warm, I can’t see where the money is being spent…..the lockers are over 25 years old haven’t changed since Green’s Gym, gym equipment broken it needs to have a really deep clean in the gym just looks small and tired. Monthly memberships over £100 a month in Cambridge it’s not worth it. Classes are fully booked.

Excellent & Friendly Staff - Ian (Lifeguard) Is Awesome!

Huge shout-out to the friendly staff at this facility. Particularly Ian, the lifeguard, who always goes and above and beyond, friendly, helpful, and has even (when asked) provided me tips on how to improve my swimming technique. He is a credit to your team.

Generally, all the staff are really great. At least when I am there, somebody is always cleaning the changing rooms, showers etc...

Thanks to Hannah too for remedying a minor gripe I had a while back, about an old pool timetable.

Really love this place. Well done to you all!

Nuffield Health Gym Cromwell Road Cambridge: Not an intimidating place, hooray. People of all ages from mums and toddlers, teenagers, adults and the mature are here! Good all round gym, with swimming pool and spa. Facilities for changing and refreshments catered for. Very good knowledgeable staff, all there to help and do not mind being asked. There are regular classes if you download their app and book into whatever you require. Those with disabilities or health problems don't be intimidated as there are people just like you there. Good Parking facilities and disabled bays. This is definitely a gym l like

Honestly don’t know why this is a 3.2.
Any restaurant at 3.2 would be rubbish. Although it’s not perfect, it’s perfectly functional.
Positives:
— decent set of facilities
— friendly staff
— not crazy busy. Some times can be but there’s always space.
— booking system is fairly good for classes and penalises members for missing sessions.
— pool is warm (for kids mostly) but it makes it nicer to swim in.
— no problems with parking
— decent opening times

Negatives:
— It’s clean enough, but it’s not spotless
— it’s not brand new and shiny
— hot pools are permanently covered: they covered over the two “hot pools” after Covid to save money. I believe it’s the same throughout all Nuffield facilities now.
— you have to have a physical card with you for access and locker, no digital one.

POOR EXPERIENCE

the staff is unprofessional and the management is even worse. they try to sell a dream experience but it’s simply average or less. the gym is poorly equipped, the staff never smiling, the bar service always slow where you have to beg somebody to be served, the changing rooms is always flooded because of the spool and the lockers often dirty inside.
I had health problems documented by medical certificates and I have been ignored by the head department about my request to cancel my membership.

I strongly don’t recommend this venue

Overall there are good things about this gym: great swimming pool, good sauna, decent weights/cardio area, and quite spacious. The people are mostly nice (staff as well as PTs). That's where the good things end. Here's the bad:
1. They have a new PT, Wiktoria, who is extremely rude and an absolute disgrace. Someone should teach that person some manners and how to communicate politely and courteously to gym members. Definitely an awful addition to what is largely a good team.
2. There's still only 1 whirlpool. At the time, energy costs were the excuse for going down from 3, but now that inflation has gone down considerably and membership fees have gone up, it feels like a total ripoff to continue only having 1 whirlpool.
3. The weights area would benefit from an extra rack and better benches.
