And £20 joining fee is questionable when pretty much everywhere else is free to join

The extra star is only for the staff member who helped after being stood there for ages embarrassing myself

Hi Jess - Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we are sorry to see this is 2 stars. A joining fee would be applicable in these circumstances unless there is an active promotion available. We would advise checking the website for any current promotions for the gym you are joining, and we do sometimes send offers to past members directly via email. Thanks, PureGym

I've been member of London Monument gym for about 4 months and I have good experience in the gym.
The only issue I got is that the treadmills are very noisy and uncomfortable to work out.
The managers are always around the gym and I dont understand why they don't report to the maintenance team.

Also the urinals are always have very strong smell

I reported the issues to the manager, but he never responded to my email.

Hi Frank, thank you for taking the time to leave this review.

We are equally as disappointed when, from time to time, things go wrong and equipment has to be placed out of order. Regular maintenance checks are undertaken, and any issues identified are escalated to engineers straight away. Sometimes, there may be a small wait whilst engineers attend to fix any issues, but we endeavour to resolve these as soon as possible.

If you have any concerns about specific pieces of equipment in your gym, please notify staff on site as soon as you can. Alternatively, you can expand on the issues that you have encountered with our Member Services team so they can assist with this. You can contact them at member.services@puregym.com.

Thanks, PureGym

Hi David, thanks for leaving us this review. We appreciate and value our member feedback.

Not all gyms will be participating within the offer and we always advise checking the terms and conditions for excluded gyms - https://www.puregym.com/membership-terms-conditions/. We would advise speaking to the Branch and Member Services and they will be able to clarify this.

Thanks, PureGym

PureGym bank still opening late since I joined. Complained in the with online team, at the gym and with the manager on site. Still the same,a few members already moved to a more reliable gym. Everyone you speak to just going to give the same lame excuse. The person opening the gym had some unforeseen circumstances every single day. Advice : don’t wast your money here go somewhere else.

Not worth it for the price

The gym needs more equipment. The heaviest dumbbell is 16kg which is mind blowing and to make it worse there’s no barbells, weighted plates or even a bench press. For £38, the gym is way below par.

We always aim to provide a broad spread of kit to cater to a range of fitness needs and meet demand as it changes through the day, getting the balance right between weights and cardio, but if you have any other/specific suggestions please approach the Gym Manager or leave a note in the feedback box, which is regularly reviewed.

Very poor experience with access

Very poor experience with access, App is too slow, and often it doesnt open my QR code, I was locked in and no one was there for 10 minutes to let me out. I had to ask a handyman who was there to let me out.

Awesome Experience

The gym wasn't busy so I was able to use all the equipment I wanted to. There is a wide range of equipment, in fact some I've not seen in other pure gyms. The gym was clean and so was the changing room and showers. Great experience.

I don't appreciate coming out of the shower in a WOMENS changing room and a MALE member of staff walking in to 'check the changing room' - when there's a WOMAN member of staff also working in the gym and therefore capable to come and check the changing room herself! It is very unnerving when you don't know if a man's going to walk in to the changing room at any moment. I can't get my head around the fact and it ALWAYS happens!!!!!

Good gym Monument & Bank

Gym is good. Changing room is OK. Lockers are small and people leave their padlocks on the lockers when they are not in the gym. So this causes there to never be enough lockers.
