“Terrible Service, Misrepresentation”
Written on: 25/03/2013
My partner and I have recently signed up to a harpers gym at stoke mandeville stadium because the athletics track available was perfect! We spoke to a guy there and he confirmed on numerous occasions that we could use the track in the evening with no problems and that they would turn the lights on for us even if it was just us two. We therefore signed up to the gym and for the first week was able to use the track as stated. In total we went about 3 times in a week at around 7.00pm in the... (read more)
“Groupon Deal for Willesden Sports Centtre”
Written on: 16/03/2013
Gym has a funny entry system to get in. There does not seem to be changing rooms near the gym and wanted to shower so used the swimming pool changing rooms. People appear to use lockers outside of the gym not sure where the other changing areas are. No atmosphere in the gym. Ok for cardio machines but not very modern ones. I will continue to use the group on deal for 10 sessions but then look elsewhere for another gym. (read more)
“Pool Dirty - substandard eqipment”
Written on: 22/01/2013
The staff at the London Road venue in Wokingham are at best rude! The equipment is not fit for purpose, its often broken or out of order. The gym in full of mould and quite frankly a health hazard. The pool at the other site is filthy and the life guards spend there time looking at women rather than making sure the pool is safe! (read more)
“Dirty”
Written on: 20/11/2012
Was a member at Oadby Parklands for several years - nothing has changed throughout this time. The sauna is still dirty and is very rarely cleaned - I saw a plastic bottle top underneath the bench for 3 weeks before it finally got cleaned! The gym equipment audio system rarely worked and has now been removed completely. The changing rooms need a good scrub. My wife complained of bare wires in the ladies changing room for over 3 months before it finally got sorted. It appears there is no form... (read more)
“Dirty, cigarette stinking staff on front desk.”
Written on: 04/07/2012 by Viking247
I ordered a 14 day pass to try them out. I got there and struggled to find them. There was a swimming pool there and finally I saw it in an obscure location on only 1 side of the building away from the main approach. I walked around the building and spoke to a couple of young men who were having a cigarette to confirm where the entrance was. One told me they were open in 8 minutes 07.00am and to go around to the front (the one with no Harpers sign above it!) I went and stood there along... (read more)

Written on: 03/09/2010
Used North Kesteven near Lincoln where my 7 yr old had to use male changing rooms on his own. There are no family facilities with the exception of a manky looking baby playpen. At 10 am, we were the first in the changing rooms to find dirty floors! Poolside also dirty. Would not recommend this place. The only plus side was free parking and plenty of it...oh and the slide which my son would have loved to go on except it was shut.

“My son cancelled his membership in writing as required...”
Written on: 04/05/2010 by P the P (2 reviews written)
My son cancelled his membership in writing as required by delivering the letter by hand, but he omitted to put the date on it and Harpers billed him for an extra month (£23.50 - a lot for an 18 yr old full time schoolboy). They initially wrote to him asking for the money. When he called to explain that he had cancelled his subscription they said that he could not prove it and that he 'had better not ignore the letter because someone will only come knocking on your door!'Not surprisngly he...

Written on: 06/10/2009 by sachin89 (6 reviews written)
I go regularly to the Harpers Fitness gym and also use the pool. It's good value for money; equipment is reliable & I have a challenging fitness programme to work to. It's too busy from about 5.45-7.00pm, but most of the time machines are available and there's a good choice of different things to do + group activities. Machines are quickly repaired. At times the gym is too hot, though. Gym showers are poor. I wish the pool was available for general swimming more often,but I've used both... (read more)

Written on: 21/07/2009
I was a member of Harper's in the local leisure centre for 2 years. Like most people, I guess I only used my membership sporadically at best. The equipment would often be out of action for long periods, and the AV system was a joke (you'd be lucky to find a working headphone port), and of the 4-out-of-5 working plasma screens, all where misconfigured anyway so the picture was distorted. The 'spinners' class that used to take over the far end of the room was annoyingly distracting, so even at... (read more)

Harpers Fitness are reasonably cheap for use of swimming pool, large swimming pool and learner pool. changing rooms seem to be in a poor condition. Puddles of water everywhere, broken tiles and out of order showers. I think the learner pool is colder than it should be (read more)

Written on: 18/09/2008 by s500kym
The dirty swimming pool is used by teaching too often, two lanes could be left clear so lane swimmers could use it too.
if there is someone serving in the restaurant the waiting time for food takes about 20 mins when we were the only couple in the restaurant god knows how how long if they were busy!
one morning when i went to the gym the young lad who was supposed to be emptying the outside bins was kicking the bin about spraying rubbish everywhere because apparently( he shouted) "there was...
