PureGym London Lewisham

Good and convenient for daily workouts. Located near the shopping centre.

- both urinals in men's changing room - out of action for several weeks now- handsoap dispenser in men's washroom frequently out of soap- the other handsoap dispenser is broken- changing rooms not checked - someone just walks in and signs the 'checked' sheet and walks out without looking at the state of the washrooms (or checking the soap levels for example!)- air conditioning in the free weights area has been inactive for several weeks now in the height of summerA surprisingly bad gym overall. And don't even bother contacting PureGym va email - they'll just tell you to sort it out yourself (I've already informed staff there about the issues that they weren't previously aware of)

Good gym with nice kit. People don't seem to re-rack their weights, but if that doesn't bother you is great.

Regularly use this gym, and it's quite good. Worth the price! Never had any issue here.

Nice place to go and workout I've met some real nice people and made some friends

Pretty decent fees and good location. Could use a little more organization but I guess the members are at fault here too. Very good and professional PT's. Good variety of machines and classes.

Pure Gym Lewisham, has its ups and downs, mostly down! I have been a member at this gym for a while. It was much better when it was run by Fitness First, but then Pure Gym took it over. Since then things just seem to go from bad to worse. If it wasn't for the personal trainers who are friendly and professional I would have left this gym a long time ago. The men's changing room and toilets tend to have an awful smell with leaks in the toilets on a regular basis. The hot water, as another member had pointed out, had been out of service for months. Last year the bench in the changing room was not fixed down properly causing me injury and now just a few days ago my locker was broken into. All of my belongings were tipped out in the locker and the cash I had in my wallet was gone. My cards were all still there but as a precaution I cancelled them just in case they had been skimmed. I reported it to staff who seemed to play it down and that a locker theft was rare and that it was the fault of a poor quality padlock. My padlock is of excellent quality! I went to the police and reported the theft. The police said there wasn't much they could do but did state that thefts from this gym was quite regular and they have had a lot of members complaining to them. They said that Pure Gym needs to enforce their security but don't. When I went back in to the gym the next day I had to ask for a locker theft form, which I then completed. I was a bit surprised that this was not offered to me when I reported the theft to the staff that day. Another member of staff then heard me talking about the break in and said not another one! Personally I don't think Pure Gym care as long as members keep paying membership. I now need to seriously think of finding another gym. Just because this gym is convenient and close to my home is no longer a good excuse the remain a member here

Cheap and cheerful. Don't expect the dumbbells to be sorted more than once a month; a couple of treadmills have been out of use for probably 2 years, and so has the second, much needed leg extension machine. Oh, and there's no heating in the changing room. Other than that, it's a gym, it's local and you don't need shoes to train. The staff is really good at replying to feedback, but they have so far failed to address any of the endemic issues this gym suffers from.16 March 2023 update: there has been no hot water since 24 February.11 July 2023 update: all machines are currently working really well. The layout has been greatly improved and new much needed machines have been added.The only thing that still needs sorting, and this has been a problem for a while, is the lockers. Many are broken and at busy times it’s difficult to find an empty functioning one.27 November 2023 update: all lockers have now been replaced. And the current manager deserves a shout out for his bonhomie. Well done guys.

Lots of dust on the machines and also the cleaning liquid that is available for visitors to clean benches etc with is often very low or empty.Other than that a great variety of equipment and a good temperature too.

Very clean, airy and spacious with lots of facilities. The staff and gym members are friendly and helpful. I must take this opportunity to congratulate the cleaners who seem to work tirelessly to keep the whole place exceptionally spotless and fresh. A lovely, lively gym with a great atmosphere. It's the kind of place one would travel to, even if they lived a distance away. It's one of the best gyms I've been to.
