Les Mills Christchurch

Fantastic experience: Great facility and good mix of people creates a great environment to exercise.

Negative experience: Would not recommend this gym.

Fantastic experience: Great staff, easy to sign up and great facilities. Les Mils always gives me community vibes and they are active with different promotions, competition weekends and celebrate seasons.

Fantastic experience: Love love love Les Mills Christchurch - such a happy energetic inspiring place with the best group fitness instructors and classes

Negative experience: Amazing gym - however the new parking system sucks! Members who have followed all the steps to setup the system still getting fines and letters threatening to tow their vehicles. Not good enough for a gym of this franchise. Will happily update my review when ALL parking issues have been resolved.

Negative experience: Absolutely disappointing. After experiencing fat shaming I decided to buy myself out of my membership. The buy out fee continued to go up each day there was no communication, instead of responding the day they asked me if I wanted to buy out they delayed responding and wouldn't allow to pay at the counter untill they had calculated ,by this point dragging the days so it came to more. I mentioned I am a Solo mum and that doing this is unreasonable and was met with a laugh.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Les Mills Christchurch CBD is an awesome gym. Great equipment, heaps of space, and a great layout. The sauna and changing rooms are nice and super clean. Great spot to train if you're in the city! Brad Proctor Kakapo Business Sales

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym, great instructors and great facilities! 10/10

Fantastic experience: Loving the new up grades very professional.

Fantastic experience: Not sure what all the negative comments about the staff are about. The two on front desk this morning were lovely. Think ppl need to realise it’s a gym not a cafe. They ain’t there to ask about your life story. They are there to get your ass in the gym. Keep at it team!

Negative experience: My parter was absolutely robbed by this gym, we spent 6 month in Christchurch traveling and using less mills all was good until it came to us leaving. My parter asked to end his contract and pay the hefty buy out fee the member at the desk didnt not process this so when it came to the end of the month the member said ‘that he would sort the contract out then’ so we paid the buy out fee and left then a few weeks later were told that we would have to pay the extra month membership even though it was there error. When we tried to explain this over email we have received no reply and instead been contacted by a debt collector which we have had to pay. Its a shame as its a good gym they just seem to be more money hungry then anything else i would not recommend- i would love a response to my parters email (james wooding)

Negative experience: Only 2 cable machines is outrageous!! Not a premium Les Mills gym, old and outdated equipment. Felt like I was walking into a city fitness gym when they first started out.

Fantastic experience: The reception team are always so friendly! Naomi went above and beyond to help me find my missing phone. Thank you for your assistance! ☺️

Fantastic experience: Total super, sehr viele Fitnesskurse zur Auswahl. Frühmorgens bis spät immer voll viel Aktion. Super nette Mitarbeiter,

Positive experience: Staff at chch are great, saunas are great gym is pretty good but the parking is terrible. Its impossible to find a spot in the evening unless you go all the way up until closing and the app is super unreliable. Canceling membership is annoying to do, fair play that you have to pay an early exit fee but it took a lot of messing around to sort it out. If you are looking for a gym to go to every few days and think you can squeeze a complete lift in 2 hours then sure this gym is good for you. But personally I can be in there for 2 hours before even showering and getting changed so make sure you consider that before starting a membership. Music isnt actually too bad, the vibe is alright and the machines are well kept (Lacking a few that most large gyms have) overall an alright gym.

Fantastic experience: Good gym. And good BodyBalance classes.

Fantastic experience: Well facilitated, large parking with EV charging and disable parking available too. Smiley staffs with various classes.

Fantastic experience: I am always thoroughly impressed with the fantastic fitness programmes and facilities. It's always clean and welcoming. I highly recommend R.P.M.

Fantastic experience: Super friendly staff!

Fantastic experience: The best gym I have been too. And I have been to a lot all over the world. Excellent range of classes throughout the day. Energetic and enthusiastic coaches abound. A spin class with Bevan is not to be missed. Early opening and late closing means everyone can fit their training around their schedule. There is enough equipment so you can do what you want even at peak times. Oh, and i can strongly recommend the drinks at the smoothie bar on your way out.

Fantastic experience: Love my visits there while on holiday in Christchurch

Negative experience: Four levels and one of the smallest most over crowded gym floors in the country. Staff are only friendly if on duty and will look at you like you're a weirdo at any other time. Gym manager is lovely though.

Positive experience: Nice gym with a lot of machines and passes to choose from. Don’t forget your mat though since there are none.

Negative experience: Just another money hungry business praying on the less fortunate. Signed up but unexpectedly had to move where there wasn’t a Les Mills gym close. Despite never actually setting foot in the gym or even setting up the access card they charged me the exit fee anyway (over $300) and sent me to debt collectors when I explained I couldn’t pay that as moving to care for the family member/moving costs took financial priority. Claim to care about your wellbeing but that doesn’t include your mental health. Do not recommend, there’s plenty of other small businesses that have a lot more empathy, stay away from the corporate soul suckers.

Negative experience: I found the young male staff member incredibly rude when I entered the gym to ask a question about the EV charging stations, initially, he was far more interested in the conversation he was having with his mate to acknowledge me. He was quite dismissive when I explained there were two cars parked in the EV charging stations that were not charging - he said they were probably in a class and it was ok for them to park there - I explained it is for charging cars, not parking and attending the gym especially as there were numerous other car parks available. Staff need to be taught some customer service/manners.

Negative experience: This is a great gym but if you want to go 'elite' as this gym markets it's self as an elite fitness facility you will be greatly let down. For starters the sauna heat temperature rarely exceeds 80. Internationally the temperature for heat exposure is minimum 80. This sauna fluctuates between 68-80. The sauna also gets turned off during the day for a whole hour. Further if youre training requirements mean you'll be at the gym for over two hours.. After a very intense long duration training when youre pushing yourself and trying to be elite.. You get hit with a flipping $85 parking ticket. So far this month has cost me over $240 to park at this gym. This leaves a sour taste towards the gym and is bs

Fantastic experience: OMG- I just found my new religion. This branch is awesome. The front desk staff are excellent, the equipment is really well maintained and the women’s only workout area is well laid out. The instructors are first rate- especially Vui Suli Tuitaupe- he’s very welcoming, fun, and inspirational.

Positive experience: Been here a few years now. Great staff, music, and classes. Have definitely stayed due to the classes. There are always classes happening throughout the day and they are great exercise and motivation. The negatives are the price, more expensive than most gyms but if like me you do the classes it's well worth it. Probably not worth it if you just want the weights. The limited hours are annoying for those that like a night or early morning workout, but still bearable.

Positive experience: Lovely staff and good facilities

Fantastic experience: Great gym with a great sauna. Overall amazing experience

Fantastic experience: Visited LesMills Christchurch whilst in town visiting family. Great staff at reception, large change rooms, great classes and instructors. Overall good gym floors too. Thanks team for making me feel so welcome! I will definitely visit again next time I’m in town.

Fantastic experience: Never attending a gym before, Les Mills Christchurch CBD has been absolutely outstanding! With knowledgeable guidance during rehabilitation, I have now continued my professional development in sports training & fitness goals without hesitation.

Negative experience: Christchurch gym has highly aggressive behaviour from some staff. There has been a lack of follow up on complaints to management about this. It is completey unacceptable in todays world for this to happen. Any complaints lodged - with witness details sent to management - went unanswered and were then 'filed.' Average at best. This review only applies to the Christchurch gym.

Negative experience: Visited Les Mills Hamilton and one of the most prestigious fitness studio at the crossing. I tried the virtual body pump 30. One of the best part of the trail is the virtual body pump 30. The quality of the release does reflect to the "investment" and brand image. Worst ever reception, felt much discriminated and weird thing is you would definitely get a much better service/treatment from your local fish and chip shop's part time high school student.Thanks, Jay and Naomi.

Positive experience: Friendly trainers and modern facilities. Would be five stars if the parking wasn’t a nightmare at peak times.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Quick and easy sign up with JW, awesome classes and equipment.

Fantastic experience: No comments

Fantastic experience: great gym. experienced staff. neat and clean. really liked the group classes. quite reasonable with student and early year offers.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic classes and facilities! Staff are super nice and welcoming! Best gym I have signed up for :)

Fantastic experience: Loving my time at les mills, rejoined after 20 years somewhere else and it's better than ever. Lots and lots of classes and so much variety on offer! Very reasonable membership rates too!

Fantastic experience: Nice equipments for gym and lots of options for exercise class. The receptionists are quiet friendly:)

Fantastic experience: Fabulous facilities, awesome classes.

Positive experience: People are great and friendly but it seems they have tried to pack in way too much equipment into the rooms and it now feels less organised and messy overall. I was a member many years ago and then it seemed spacious and more calm. So it has all you need and more but it’s just not as well put together as it was.

Fantastic experience: Love the classes, instructors and staff are friendly! I just wish they were open for longer on weekends, but a great gym!

Fantastic experience: The best gym

Fantastic experience: Super nette Leute und coole Gruppenkurse. Fühlte mich sofort zuhause und hatte noch lange Muskelkater

Fantastic experience: Nit my usual, but great facilties

Fantastic experience: Very friendly team! Wish I lived closer so could return again.

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, great classes and facilities

Fantastic experience: Very friendly, wide range of classes. I have not used the gym but looks well equipped.

Fantastic experience: Solid gym with all the equipment and classes needed for a good workout. Clean and friendly.

Fantastic experience: Been with Les Mills for some time now. Brilliant atmosphere, modern purpose built gym facilities. The Personal trainers are awesome. While not fully 24 hours access their hours are more than adequate - open from 5am. Recommend this gym

Negative experience: The gym itself is great, the staff are great, and the instructors are phenomenal. The members services team however are a real downfall... For the past 2 months now I am having issues with my billing and have got no clear answer from them. Last week I had $60 taken out of my account for some unknown reason and I still have not heard anything as to why? This comes just the week after I had to pay $45 for a billing error on their end... have tried to get in touch with them multiple times via email and phone but nothing. Reception even marked the case as urgent and still nothing...

Positive experience: Generally a great gym with good changing rooms, shower cubicles and a sauna. I’ve been going here for just over a year and just renewed my membership. Lacks some basic equipment (eg. abductor/adductor machine). The gym is by no means dirty, but equipment gets a bit dusty. Lovely, welcoming front desk team which really makes a difference, with the exception of Claire who gives me the feeling she feels better than the rest of the team as well as Les Mills members

Fantastic experience: I’ve just started at Les Mills and am loving it so far! Welcoming and friendly staff, awesome weight and cardio facilities. Also loving being able to have a sauna after each workout! Couldn’t recommend more

Fantastic experience: Awesome club. Excellent facility and class schedule

Positive experience: I have been a member since 2003. I have used other gyms during the chch earthquake and nothing compared to the amazing classes offered by Les Mills. Most of the staff are reasonably friendly. Equipment is excellent and clean. Club manager is a good communicator and looking to give the members the most out of their memberships.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym:)

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff and great facilities

Fantastic experience: Best Gym in Christchurch, great facilities, classes, attentive staff, value for money.

Fantastic experience: Great to be back at one of the most complete gyms in Christchurch.. Something for everyone here

Fantastic experience: A great range of classes and a well equipped gym. Friendly staff to help with any issues you might have

Fantastic experience: Great location a few hundred metres from the city centre. Up to date equipment and awesome group fitness classes. Excellent sauna also.

Fantastic experience: Ticks all the boxes. I enjoy going but do miss the older RPM instuctors. The instructors that have been around for a while are fantastic. I seek them out as you feel like they are engaging with the class not just presenting a package. The gym gets crazy busy so seek out off peak times. 7am crazy busy. After 8am better Car parks can be a challange at times. Park 1km away and warm up by walking to the gym

Fantastic experience: I was next door at the old CTV site of big earthquake hit 22 February 2011. It was the 11 year anniversary I was here 3 weeks prior to the earthquake in 2011 at Canterbury television studios with a friend it's amazing just looking around today listening to birds and cars thinking what it would of been like on the day of the earthquake

Fantastic experience: A friend went to the gym and I used the charger to charge my EV

Fantastic experience: Well maintained facilities. Heaps of classes to choose from. Lots of parking. Absolutely love RPM class, if you don't know what it is, look it up on YouTube. They also have mixed gym (male and female) and female only gym.

Fantastic experience: Clean, tonnes of equipment and the ladies only gym is brilliant

Fantastic experience: Large premium-quality commercial gym. Always clean, well ventilated, great equipment and classes.

Fantastic experience: Very popular please for gym-goers. Men's section has lockers, toilets, washrooms and a sauna room. Has different sections of the building for different exercises like HIIT, cardio classes and aerobics.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in city

Positive experience: It was nice experience visiting the facility. Good to see that have such a big space.

Positive experience: Great gym, great showers and changing facilities, friendly staff. Lots of classes and a try for a week free option.

Negative experience: Signing up with Les Mils was easy and effortless. Surprise surprise, the same could not be said for terminating the membership. It takes at least 5 days to hear back from them and you can not get through via phone. I'm incredibly disappointed in how the process was managed. It really tainted what was a great experience for me. In terms of facilities, it would be great if the women's gym could have some proper maintenance (rather than the duck tape solution) and be a bit bigger. The other facilities were amazing, loved the Sauna and the classes. Like I said im really disappointed at how my termination was managed and the poor communication. A phone call could have gone a long way to clearing up these concerns.

Fantastic experience: Great group classes, gym, sauna and other amenities.

Fantastic experience: No better gym in ChCh. Amazing classes both instructor led and virtual. Fully equipped changing rooms including sauna. Cafe in-house with lots of yummy options. Staff friendly and helpful. Premium gym, you will find cheaper options but not better.

Fantastic experience: We came to LM CHC on a casual pass as we were passing through CHC. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The gym is a good size with two group fitness rooms. The changing room has a good size sauna and plenty of showers.

Fantastic experience: Great gym good classes great staff

Fantastic experience: Lovely facility with everything you need for movement and exercise.

Fantastic experience: Great place to workout and get going. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Joined for the large range of early morning classes. Stayed because i love every single thing about the place. Everything.

Fantastic experience: I've been a Les Mills member for 20 years. Definitely the best gym in ChCh.

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Instructors are energetic and really welcoming

Fantastic experience: Good facilities, trainers and environment. Parking can be a pain at peak times

Fantastic experience: More affordable than other gyms in the city with really good classes and facilities. The parking might be an issue if you go in busy hours though.

Fantastic experience: Love the classes, the workout options, challenges, the gym locations and Les Mills on demand of course

Fantastic experience: Great facilities and space.

Fantastic experience: Great facilities and PT

Fantastic experience: Great classes

Fantastic experience: Good to be back.

Fantastic experience: Amables en la atención, instalaciones lindas, amplias y buenas máquinas. Tienen un gym solo para mujeres. Clases de todo tipo a toda hora

Fantastic experience: I enjoyed my body balance class

Negative experience: Wouldn't recommend it, unsavoury staff.

Positive experience: My girlfriend is really hot so she needs more fans in the gym.

Positive experience: this place has terrible wi-fi signal during the rush hours over the years I've been a member of the club. and they've done nothing to solve the problem.

Negative experience: Trainers are great, rest of the gym is questionable. Lack of parking & abrasive receptionist/admin staff. Poor management.

Positive experience: I love the gym, the classes and my PT there, but I feel it is massively overpriced compared to other gym's and there is a hudge lack of car parking. Could do with another location in Christchurch also.

Fantastic experience: More affordable than other gyms in the city with really good classes and facilities. The parking might be an issue if you go in busy hours though.
