Nuffield Health East Kilbride Fitness & Wellbeing Gym - Glasgow

Ewen A. F.

Below average gym, moving to PureGym. Staff are great, had PT sessions which were immensely helpful reaching goals but beyond this below average gym. The facilities are tired and have needed renovation for years now. The pool was renovated recently but other than the ceiling paint flakes being removed nothing obvious has changed. The jacuzzi has been shut for over a year now and seems to be indefinitely as it’s been covered up. Gym is very small and lacks some equipment, free weights area often too busy to get a work out done within a reasonable amount of time. All this considered I think the membership prices are too high and this is why I have decided to move gym. Very poor from Nuffield who I hear have decided to raise the prices of membership in 2025. Better gyms in EK, go elsewhere

I signed up very excited in the beginning of the year. It has been very dissappointing to say the least. I go there for the pool, steam room specifically. The steam room has not work properly on and off since I joined. It has been down for the last two weeks. When I inquire, it is always the same story, awaiting a part...where is the contingency and maintenance management. Furthermore the amount of times the pool is closed is astonishing for the rate I pay. If it is not refurbishment, it is simply a message saying pool is closed, you will be notified when it is open again. The water is also really cold. I am actively looking at joining another gym.

I read reviews before signing up and its not too bad in my opinion. Visually its fine. But for £58 a month I would expect something better, better service.I signed up only so I can attend aqua aerobics and couple of classes. Every time Ive been to the pool it was cold so I stopped going. The class I wanted to go to was always full and by full I mean uncomfortable to exercise. To book a class you need to do it at 7am otherwise you might not get it as there is always a massive waiting list (for most popular classes) really strange not customer friendly booking system.wanted to book gym tour and that was cancelled on me few times and once no one showed up as it wasn’t booked in the system.so I gave up. I got signed up for Health Personal Best programme where I suppose to receive personal action plan which never happened. By that time I lost my interest in going to the gym . Manager (or assistant manager) woman who has blond bleached hair and ridiculous eyelashes is rude and cheeky. Looking like this and behaving like she does I wonder how did she get this job and how is she keeping it.

For the money they charge it really is poor. I’ve used a number of Nuffield gyms and this is by far the worst of them all. Very small gym filled with old equipment, changing rooms are tired and the pool area no longer has a jacuzzi and the temperature in the sauna and steam room has been turned down. Only thing I will say is the staff are great.

The place is falling apart, in dier need of a full refurb.
I’ve been a member of this gym for a few years now, after moving from another Nuffield when I moved house. The drop in quality between gyms was shocking. Opening hours were much better in my old Nuffield too (membership here is slightly cheaper).
In the few years I’ve been here absolutely nothing has improved- yet membership costs have increased. Nuffield have not spent a penny in this place for years and it shows, equipment is run down and tired. Multiple treadmills out of order every time I’m in (taking up space that could be used effectively with other machines).

The full gym layout desperately needs to be assessed and rearranged, too many members to justify only 3 benches and limited free weight section. No stairmaster, no ground pulley.
The jacuzzi has been closed for over a year and now covered up with some drywall to hide it.
The only reason I have stayed is for the pool but I’m not sure it’s worth it, as the pool lacks quality too.

The only good thing about this Nuffield is the staff, who deserve 5 stars. I feel for them having to work/manage such a low quality facility (especially compared to other Nuffields close by). Polite and friendly group of people who do their jobs well.

I’ve been a member here with for just over a year. The negative reviews really didn’t do justice for this club. The staff are always welcoming and accommodating, the kids classes are well run with great varieties compared to other Nuffield clubs or even David Lloyds in Hamilton. Some parts of the decor can be refreshed, however that doesn’t affect the use of the classes or facilities.

I’m posting this under another name however It’s an honest review of the facility at my home gym. I joined the Nuffield in January along with my wife and for what we paid it is “adequate “….if you are a maintenance manager you will see that it’s a tired place from the UPVC panels in the guys shower areas needing cleaning (the girls are apparently just as bad)… carpet tiles which are threadbare from when it was “Cannons” with water damage and if your in the pool look up at the ceilings peeling paint.The locker room requires a good amount of updating and don’t ask how
lockers work 😂
We actually went to the Tier 3 gym in Edinburgh which is “supposed “to be the same standard as ours…..OMFG…HUGE gym with superb touch screen cardio machines and fantastic facilities compared to the EK and its got a great cafeteria area and pool ( please visit if your in any doubt)
With over 4000 members we should be able to get something much better than what we are currently experiencing.
And lets not forget the state of the worst pot holed roundabout directly outside that has had nothing done to it since goodness knows when

Members will know exactly what I mean….take a trial visit and see what I’m talking about

Gym is decent although a lot of equipment is old/worn. Backing up what a previous review has highlighted, I also had a good watch stolen from a locked locker which had been opened using the override code. Very little contact from the staff/management since the incident and despite requesting other members be made aware of this, no changes to security in the gym. Please be aware there are thieves using this gym.
