I was pleasantly surprised by the standard of the facilities all round. Very clean and modern. The staff were the highlight for me. So polite and friendly and really helpful. As I am returning to fitness after some time away from exercise it made the process much less intimidating.

Hi there,
Thank you for your wonderful 5-star review!
We're delighted to hear that you were pleasantly surprised by the high standard of the facilities at Robinson Pools & Fitness and that you found the centre clean, modern, and welcoming.
It's especially rewarding to know that our staff made such a positive impression. Returning to fitness after time away can feel daunting, so we're pleased that our team's friendly, polite, and helpful approach helped make your experience more comfortable and less intimidating.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We wish you every success on your fitness journey and look forward to welcoming you back to the centre soon.
Warm Regards,

Overall a great gym
Overall a great gym. Needs another fitness studio to run more classes because it’s always a bit of a bun fight to get a space in class.
Most of the staff are helpful and friendly. Fitness instructors, apart from one, are brilliant.
It’s a bit spit and sawdust but you get what you pay for.

Hi there,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We’re very sorry to hear about your experience at Robinson Pools & Fitness. It’s particularly concerning to hear your comments about the behaviour of the lifeguards, as we expect all staff to be welcoming, supportive, and especially helpful to new members. Your feedback will be shared with the management team so this can be addressed.
We’re also disappointed to hear about the condition of the changing rooms and pool areas. Cleanliness and maintenance are extremely important to us, and the issues you’ve described, including odour, blocked drains, and water quality, are not the standards we aim to provide. This will be raised with the relevant team for urgent review and action.
Thank you again for bringing this to our attention.
Warm Regards,
Hazal

Hi William,
We’re very sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
It’s extremely concerning to hear about the behaviour you encountered from our lifeguard team, as well as the lack of support for new members. We expect all staff to be welcoming, helpful and professional at all times, so we’re disappointed this was not reflected during your visit.
We’re also sorry to hear about the cleanliness issues you’ve described within the pool and changing areas. This is not the standard we aim to maintain, and your comments will be raised with the centre management team urgently so that appropriate action can be taken.
Thank you again for your feedback.
Warm Regards,

The teacher is very old
The teacher is very old, not able or extremely slow to explain the exercises to swimmers. They can’t hear, what the teacher wants to say, hence they tend to ignore her and try to copy other swimmers.
Simply put, she is not good fit for this role any more and we as parents, would like to see more energetic teachers around our children, who are able to actively fill the 30mins with valued exercises, what we pay for.
Thanks,
A parent

Very misleading
Very misleading, membership states that it is £6 a month for a junior membership.
It does not advise there is a £10 additional charge for EACH session used on top of this and a £10 charge for an induction.

Hi Jennifer,
Thank you for your review!
We advertise this in the description for our Better Flex Junior Membership, and you can find this in the view details section of the Membership.
This agreement offers 1 free booking a month and up to 30% off on other bookings.
To have the Junior Gym, Swimming, and Junior Fitness Classes included in your monthly payment, you'd need to take out a full Membership, which is currently £25.00.
Thank you again for your review!

❗ I do not recommend this swimming pool.
❗ Bad Review – Robinson Pool & Fitness Bedford
My 10-year-old daughter has had a swimming membership at Robinson Pool & Fitness Bedford for 2 years, but in the last year we have become extremely disappointed with the management and the conditions of the centre.
First of all, they do not have enough staff for all the children. Many times, the kids are left alone in the pool without proper supervision, and time goes by without them learning anything. It is frustrating to pay for a membership and see no progress because of poor organisation.
The changing rooms where the children get dressed are in terrible condition: dirty, with food leftovers, hair all over the place, and dirty floors. Nobody seems to clean them properly, even though a children’s swimming facility should be hygienic and safe.
The area where the children take a shower after swimming is a disaster as well: dirty, messy, and the drain is always blocked, so the kids end up standing in dirty water. This is unacceptable for a centre that claims to maintain standards.
On top of that, they never have swimming caps available for the kids. Every time I ask at reception, I get the same answer: “We are waiting for stock, we are waiting for stock.” The same excuse for months.
After everything we’ve experienced over the past year, I do not recommend this swimming pool.

We completely understand your frustrations regarding the supervision, cleanliness, and organisation of the Robinson Pools & Fitness Centre.
We apologise for the negative impact this has had on your daughter during her time here.
We aim to have 2 to 3 Swim teachers in a class depending on the size of the class.
We equally understand your concerns regarding the safety and progress of our pupils.
Regarding the swimming caps, we apologise for the ongoing stock issues.
Please note that we have passed your concerns to the Centre Team, so this can be reviewed.

Nice & quiet but some equipment needs replacing
I really like going to this gym, it’s never too busy and I don’t mind it doesn’t have a huge number of machines - it has enough. However a couple of the machines are in desperate need of maintenance or replacement. The adductor press is rusty and really wobbly, and the seat adjustment on the leg press gets jammed a lot.
