Virgin Active is the best gym I’ve gone to in Manchester. Wide range of machines, very rarely have to queue for one, friendly atmosphere. The best bit is the classes. Completely free to do as many as you want a week and the instructors are amazing. Then, you get to relax after in the jacuzzi, steam room and sauna. Basic shampoo + shower gel + conditioner is provided which is nice in case you’ve forgotten your own. You do need to bring your own towel but they can be rented too for £1.50 a towel. You need to bring your own lock for the lockers but I prefer this over a system where you have to bring a pound coin every time. You get free 4 hour parking with each gym visit too which is really handy in the Quays as parking is scarce and expensive. Two tram stops

I have been a member here for over a year and a half. As a regular gym-goer, this gym is good for me. I haven't visited poolside so I cannot comment on that end. Pleasant members who don't bother you and staff members who seem friendly enough. The cons are that the gym equipments are kept unclean and that there aren't many of them, so you are often left to improvise or hang around.

Absolutely abysmal. Classy and premium service, and now they have introduced kids session where by new and rules have been applied on using your phone within. Sorry but isn’t this what leisure centres are for? Public place where anyone can use a phone….. Get a grip!

Avoid. Overpriced for the aged and worn equipment. Go elsewhere. Staff are also rude and lacking in professionalism. Sauna regularly has steroid-pumped men eating food in it; not classy. Pool is massively overcrowded and super short at 20m. I recommend any of the proper gym brands that exist in close vicinity. This club is massively overpriced for what it is.
