Services, Machines and Guided Classes
CityFitness Takanini: Opinions
Negative experience: One of the staff was very condescending and very rude.
Negative experience: No one to talk to after hours, if there is issue with access. If by any luck you find the Staff, they do not know how to contact the manager or the franchisee owner. It’s better to go to other gyms and pay $2 more per week than coming to this gym. Avoid.
Negative experience: Heaps of machines, space, amazing staff. The equipment is always free. Did I forget to mention the equipment is always free?
Positive experience: Nice atmosphere
Positive experience: Too crowded.
Negative experience: This is the worst gym, the worst gym I’ve ever been to. I made the mistake of signing up without looking at reviews first etc, they don’t do a trial period because they’re so cheap but that’s the catch. They trap you into a 12 month contract and charge an early cancellation fee and you also have to give “4 weeks notice” so they can keep taking your money an extra four weeks. The gym is always busy, there’s not enough equipment for the amount of members they have there. It’s ridiculous! But the worst part I Of my experience is… One day I finished my workout and wanted to wash my hands, when I walked into the women’s bathroom there was an Indian man standing in there waiting. I had to yell at him and chase him out. When I reported it the staff, he said would go and talk to him. I never heard anything after that. They didn’t follow up with me to let me know anything. It obviously wasn’t a big deal to them that an Indian man was standing in the women’s bathroom where they shower etc!!! CRAZY!! Honestly the worst gym. I wouldn’t do it if I were you. Just go pay the little bit extra somewhere else, it will be better than any city fitness I promise you!
Positive experience: It's ok in here
Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere. Great staff. Good place to work out.

Positive experience: Delightful service and encouragement to train upon sign up.. appreciate the staff and establishment
Negative experience: Soooooooo many people. I went at 1pm today. Had to wait atleast 10 min per excerise. 4 people wating for 1 Machine. No smith machine!!!!. Stuff broken for weeks. Furthermore toilets so dirty. Try another this is the cheapest for a reason. Unless u coming after 11pm everytime not worth the savings.
Fantastic experience: Good setup not to much people
Negative experience: Some of the machines here are different from other city fitness clubs I have been to and they are bouncy(the rope expands it seems) when pulling. The other club machines are more smooth. I hate these bouncy machines.
Negative experience: Less space and more people . Crowded all the time
Negative experience: unfriendly staff, average equipment. because its $7 a week ill give it 1 star. lets hope the other branches are better than this one!
Negative experience: Most useless gym i’ve been to. Machines always broken and not maintained, vending machine has been broken for weeks. Sort it out City Fitness !!

Negative experience: Worst gym i have ever went to in my life its not a gym ( for 2-3 months ) its for the people who like idea of gym but don't like working out . You get it what i mean if you don't . Then don't bother .
Hi Ryan, we are sorry to hear you had a bad experience in one of our gyms. Please give our member services team a call on 0800 348 637 to discuss further so we can ensure this doesn't happen again.
Negative experience: Such a small gym for a developing community The staff have been lovely to talk to however the gym is a mess. Though I think this is due to members having a lack of respect. Weights are never put away and in random orders. So overcrowded even at 10pm have to wait to use equipment at times. No point going in rush hour as everything is taken. I’ll rather drive 20 mins to one of the other branches then go here as it’ll be a quicker workout even with the drive. Management should have found a larger location.
Negative experience: one of the worst city fitness gym ever. No point in getting a membership worth more than $6.99 as this gym has nothing. Half the time the machines are “under repair” for weeks, people don’t know how to re-record weights properly, staff aren’t that great either. Getting in trouble for bringing dumbbells out of weights area when doing a superset?? How are people suppose to know? Maybe plaster these supposed rules around the gym to prevent that from happening? I’ve brought my dumbbells from the weights area to other parts of the gym in other CityFitness locations and staff hadn’t had a problem. Two different staff telling me two different reasons why dumbbells aren’t allowed makes me question how these people are trained. In addition getting told you aren’t allowed in the gym with crocs while others are freely roaming around in them is beyond me. I’m aware this is a health and safety problem so why is it not mentioned around the gym? How are people suppose to know? The only good thing is how cheap it is until you realize how much machines are “under repair” in addition to mundane customer service. Better off going to other locations rather than this one.
Hi Garcia, thank you for your review. Please give our member services team a call on 0800 348 637 to discuss your feedback as we want to ensure all of our facilities are operating and available for our members to use!
Fantastic experience: Probably the most comfortable I've ever been at this gym. The size is amazing and their prices for myself and to bring a friend the best. Also amenities .... clean ! Showers are amazing too.
Hi there, thanks for your awesome review
Negative experience: Currently a member. And looking at leaving. The members here don't have any gym etiquette. Weights are always in shambles. What they promise and what you get told upon sign up isn't what they offer. Was a member at Anytime Fitness in Takanini. Friendly team out there.
Fantastic experience: Nice and wide place to workout, cheap membership options compared to other gyms. Cool environment with a fuel station and a lot of Machines etc, so we can buy (ready to drink) protein drinks instantly.
Hi there, thank you for the great feedback!
Negative experience: Stay away from this gym, I joined the gym initially on Black membership thought they might have classes here, but since this gym is small they don't have classes, I changed my membership to Basic as there was no point paying extra, the person who was at the reception told me if I change it I wont be on a contract as I am already a member, recently I contacted the gym and told them I am no longer using the gym because I am going overseas, they declined to stop the membership and they will continue charging me until end of membership period, even though I am no longer using the gym and I will be in overseas I have to pay them, really bad customer service.
Hi Qais, thank you for your review. Please give our member services team a call on 0800 348 637 to discuss your queries re membership cancellation.
Positive experience: Have been going for around 4 months now, gym equipment is great. Lots of variety and new machines, the people and staff are also awesome. The only problem is the disgusting middle aged people. The kind to sweat out their crack and not wipe the machine and play dumb when another member asks them to. If you are looking into this gym, do clean after yourself or expect someone around you to say something. Because that’s dirty
Positive experience: I have been in this gym for about a month and i liked it, It's busy and small but there's always chance to do something in the gym. I hope the staff read this note. if you care about your job or the company values only few things you really need to do 1. customer service 2. smile from your heart 3. walk around and ask the coustomers if they need help.
Hi Ali, thank you for your review. We will pass this on to the staff in the gym
Negative experience: Trash gym. Too packed
Positive experience: Need cleaning
Positive experience: Mornings are best Very popular in the evenings
Fantastic experience: This has to be the cleanest Cityfitness compared to the others.
Fantastic experience: Nice Gym
Positive experience: Great service, good and clean environment. Highly recommended to join.
Fantastic experience: Awesome opener today. Nice and plenty machines.
Negative experience: Super crowded not even worth going. Expect to wait 20 minutes for a bench.
Negative experience: Worst gym ever if you can even call it a gym, the management is terrible and its extremely overcrowded. Never coming back.
Fantastic experience: Great. Neat and state of the art latest gym equipment. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Great friendly place to workout app and amazing equipment so nice and clean
Fantastic experience: very good facilities... clean and tidy... but if they contact some group fitness classes and zumba classes it would be an added advantage
Fantastic experience: City Fitness are helpful and very very well equipped. Highly recommend this gym as there's one in Auckland wherever you are!
Fantastic experience: Peak from 5pm-8pm but pretty steady outside of those hours. Well equipped and helpful staff.
Positive experience: Decent gym and so good to have one in Takanini but god it's busy! Way overcrowded at peak times
Negative experience: Trash gym. Absolutely no gym etiquette its actually a joke. People don't unrack their weights so you have to do it if you want to use the barbells. People don't put the dumbbells back at the right place so it’s like a treasure hunt trying to find the dumbbells you need because no one puts it back at the right place. This gym has no gym etiquette and staff don't seem to care or enforce a good gym culture or etiquette. Don't go here unless you want to waste half your workout unracking other people's weights or finding the dumbbells you need.
Positive experience: Good gym, not that big but not that small either, staff are friendly.. toilet and showers are clean, only issue is some of the equipments are short in number especially the mean machine and lots of waiting during peak hours..
Fantastic experience: Extremely busy from 5 am to 10:30 pm. The facility is huge and plenty of fitness equipments available for you. At an average 30 to 40 people always there. Plenty of parking space available here. The equipment’s are clean and tidy and most of them are new.
Fantastic experience: Having used several sites of the gym brand, by far this is my favourite. Staff are polite and welcoming and the gym is clean and well organised. The changing rooms are well equipped with sufficient lockers and bathroom facilities are super clean.
HI there - thank you for your awesome feedback
Negative experience: I was given a bag with my membership, which didn’t even last one month even. It wasn’t not even standard quality and they asked me to buy new bag for $20 again. I used it for gym stuff and could understand that if it would happened after a year so. Point: either give at least standard quality or don’t do that.
Negative experience: Gym has most of the new machines however, the size of the gym is small comparatively to the crowd. Most of the time have to wait for others to finish and by then PUMP is gone. Avoid the bee hive during evenings.
