JD Gyms - Bristol Reviews 

This is such a great gym. Open 24/7, very nice and tidy, very professional staff. All great 👍

Really great gym! Very clean and nice I feel very comfortable there x

Great place, friendly and helpful team,good vibe, clean and tidy

Really spacious and clean gym.
Very impressed and will be my new gym going forth.

Only thing that is slightly inconvenient is the changing rooms being locked until 6am, meaning I can’t put my coat / bag away when I go gym before 6 (usually 4am), unless you have a PIN Code, which they no longer provide..

I think this place need to get some more cable handles as they are rubbish and no where near enough a lot of knee pads are broken needs to sort it out really

Overall it’s an admirably well equipped gym and seems to be very well looked after.
There are a few things however that need improvement:
1. Temperature - seems to be quite cold most of times.
2. Music - it’s louder than I would like and it’s hard to listen to music when I’m using headphones.
3. Internet - mobile data signal is struggling a lot when I’m inside the gym. It may be affected by the metallic structure of the building. There is Wi-Fi available but it seems to struggle when the gym is fully busy.
4. Lighting - I feel the changing rooms are quite dark. The gym area is also dark but it fits with the style of the gym. The fitting rooms though don’t have to be that way as it’s hard for the cleaners to see if surfaces are dirty.

My intention is to provide constructive feedback from a user’s perspective, as in all fairness the gym looks amazing and it seems that a lot of experience has been put to bring it to life.

Very friendly staff and couldn’t have been more helpful when looking around. Has everything I need at a beat in class price.

Was a member of the Bristol Gym for a short time.
For some reason any communication and cancellation means contacting the customer service team directly, meaning they will try to draw out the process and cheaper you for an extra month, which is the main reason for the score.
However, the Bristol gym had below average equipment, a low ceiling rendering some pull up bars useless, and the cable machines were in questionable order. Most equipment was dirty and I do not believe is regularly cleaned properly.
Poor car park spaces.

Ceilings are fairly low which makes skipping for a 6ft3 male hard but that is as I like ro skip prior to using the punch bag.
Peak times means not many free areas to skip

Great Pilates class with Rebecca. She really works us hard, which I love. Thank you.

Great gym, clean, convenient location and parking. Good price, especially with benefits from JD+ and 24/7 access. Plenty of free weights and squat racks.

It’s literally the best gym in Bristol like fr it’s worth it.
Tho the price it’s a little too high but I guess it’s worth it!!

Nice space but the Internet connection right at the door is very bad so hard to get in most of the time

Like the location near my home and plenty of classes
Dislike the loud music and the rooms are too dark having difficult to read the instructions

Very good equipment, very helpful staff, I am so glad to join, I made a good choice

I have been a member of JD gym over 3 years, and as a loyal member I would like to draw your attention to their staff issues.
As I was finishing off my session, I was coming off the leg press machine which I was using at the time.

A member of staff who claimed to be a manager and
always on steroid has no communication skills, was so rude towards me shouting across the room saying..

Oi did you just use the machine?
I replied back saying yes I have.
He then shouted aggressively saying if you don't put the weights back you know where the front door is! He also had an attitude as if he owned the gym. Without knowing facts he accused me of something which I didn't do. I didn't react to his foolishness I then put the weights back.
Tried explaining to him that the machine that I was using already had weights on but he was having none of it. As a loyal member it's a common sense thing to put back your weights I've never had an issue as I always put back my weights! I then asked to speak to a manager to resolve this matter he then said he was the manager. After several weeks I felt uncomfortable being there so I decided to cancel my membership and started searching for a new gym.
I have decided to write this review only because I have found many others left the gym because of this poor attitude staffs. This degradation of service is unfortunate because I greatly enjoyed exercising at JD.

A women’s only section would be great and quieter music.

Really cool gym, has all the equipment you need, very reasonable price!
