Les Mills Dunedin

Negative experience: If you’re looking for a gym that prioritises getting as many members as possible and overpopulating a gym, that doesn’t enforce regulations to keep saunas clean and safe and doesn’t take your feedback seriously, then this place is for you! Incredibly overrun, classes are hard to book and the gym floor is constantly busy (unless you go in the middle of the day or after 8pm). Instead of ensuring they’re not overcapacity, they put up signs encouraging you to share your machines between sets. Sauna rules are not enforced and there’s people going in with phones / AirPods / dirty gym gear / shoes all the time. When these are mentioned to management, along with the issue that machines are hardly ever wiped down by members, they stated that they would encourage enforcement / signs, yet this was never seen. The trainers there are fantastic but the overall management and running of the place is disappointing, and they seem to value their new members more than the loyal ones.

Fantastic experience: Very good fitness, with plenty of squat racks, deadlift platforms, hip thrust machine, ski erg, rowing machine, chest supported T-bar and much more !

Fantastic experience: Awesome G/F classes and instructors.

Fantastic experience: Love the new gym. Easy parking. Really enjoying personal training with Tere

Fantastic experience: Great facility! Excellent classes. Came with a friend for a free pass.

Negative experience: Unfair that women can train shirtless in just a tiny sports bra with everything popping out but men have to wear a shirt. Gender discrimination much? The sauna smells like feces and some of the old men sit there completely naked. Yikes! Glad I only paid for a casual entry.

Fantastic experience: Well equipped gym. Huge space that does not easily feel crammed. Great opening hours. Vast array of classes, however some of them are unfortunately virtual. Staff were very nice and accommodating. They do offer day passes for guests/tourists, which at 30NZD are decently priced.

Fantastic experience: Good spacious gym

Fantastic experience: My happy place. Great gym. A wide variety of classes and a large weight room with racks, free weights, machines, treadmills, exèrcycles, rowing and ski machines. You can chose between electronically opening lockers, or padlock-opening lockers (you can even borrow a padlock). Super friendly staff. If I had the time I'd spend all day and do every class on offer.

Fantastic experience: I absolutely LOVE this gym!! Very clean, modern, with a professional and friendly staff. And never gets too crowded! Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: I have nothing but praise for the new dance classes! I love the idea of having two instructors!! They’re incredibly enthusiastic!

Fantastic experience: The new gym and facilities are impressive. For gym members there’s 90 minute free parking in the Meridian. Loved contrast therapy, sauna and cold shower for no extra cost. The showers are hot with good pressure, nice touch that they have eco body wash in each cubicle. Loved the GHD hair dryers and straighteners. There’s plenty of classes on at all different times and the gym floor, machines and equipment are all new. There’s a great variety and something for everyone. A little busy at peak times to be expected but everyone is friendly and considerate. I also thought the lockers were a game changer, no more having to bring a padlock in as they are all opened electronically. Staff are super friendly too!

Fantastic experience: Lovely staff and great facilities. :)

Fantastic experience: Loving the virtual classes and the staff are very welcoming and friendly.

Negative experience: Friend told me he used the free trial they offer 2 days ago. I went there today and they wouldn't let me use it because 'I'm not from Dunedin'. My friend is neither. Their website states free trials are possible. I guess you have to be lucky with the people working at that day.

Fantastic experience: Best gym I have been to Hot suna

Fantastic experience: Brand new premises in a central city mall. Clean and inviting. Extremely helpful staff. Great timetable of in-person and virtual classes. No padlock requires for lockers - all operated by a touch screen.

Fantastic experience: Really nice facilities, clean and tidy. Staff are incredibly nice and friendly, as are most of the people you'll meet there. Did a 3 day trial to see how it was and enjoyed each group session I did :)

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere and great equipment

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere and great equipment

Fantastic experience: Nice place , great studios and classes , great functional fitness with alot of squat racks which is a nice change .

Negative experience: Terrible!

Negative experience: Wouldn’t let me use promos as advertised online with no reason given. Left a complaint on their website, no reply received. Facilities look great shame about the customer survive..

Fantastic experience: It's good time, love it

Fantastic experience: Love it. It feels so good to be back in the gym

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, clean and great equipment

Fantastic experience: There are so many group fitness classes which is great with lots of space.

Fantastic experience: Great gym awesome supportive people. A shout out to Georgia who has got this 'old girl' back to the gym!

Fantastic experience: Such a awesome place to go and workout/recover or even just destress.

Negative experience: $370 just to cancel a 12-month contract after going once and realizing the limited operating hours are not suitable. Sure, that's in your contract, Les Mills, but you don't have to be a**holes. Doesn't your reputation matter to you at all? Buyer beware! If I can convince one person not to join by this posting, I'll consider it a huge success. Just don't join - there are loads of better gyms in Dunedin that allow you to go any time you want.

Positive experience: Great facilities and value for money, friendly helpful staff, but the music videos seem highly sexualised to me (scantily clad women bumping and grinding) not my preference at the gym

Positive experience: Gym is good, tons of equipment and the space is clean. $30 drop in for a gym in Dunedin, NZ is silly though. We wanted to find a place to train for a week while visiting- first gym I’ve ever been to that was unwilling to make something work rather than just stick with $30 per person per visit.

Positive experience: Biggest gym in Dunedin with the most options, so for me it is the best

Positive experience: Great gym lots of equipment room and variety just on the high price of side

Positive experience: Not bad. Abid behind compare to other less miles I been too in New Zealand. For dunedin it a good gym

Fantastic experience: Great gym with plenty of room in all areas. Even during busy times, almost no waiting for machines. Very friendly staff and a great atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: Fabulous as always. Staff are fantastic And great classes

Fantastic experience: Loved it good people and great exercise equipment

Positive experience: Nice equipment.

Positive experience: My daughter goes to classes and she took me to a couple.... Sore for days!! but was enjoyable

Negative experience: This place may have the required equipment someone needs to work out with, however the management here is appalling. I was advised incorrect information numerous times via email, they broke my contract more than twice, they direct debited funds from my bank account without agreement and then the manager Peter Lee attempted to blame me for those mistakes stating it was my responsibility the direct debit had not worked, therefore leaving me in the lurch with no empathy or understanding provided whatsoever. Peter had told me that there was no way I would get out of my contract no matter how high I go, which made me feel helpless and disparged. The only great service i did receive is from the national marketing manager in the north island that helped me get a refund and a membership cancelation at no cost. Thank you Elizabeth.

Positive experience: Pretty stoked with the men's changing room up grade. I'm getting huge so their services must be working. Though I dropped a star because I max out the leg press. But I have a 40inch girth in my thigh so it's not surprising really

Fantastic experience: I loved this place. I went in real early, I think it was at 5:30. They have classes from 6 am, ladies restroom has hairdryers and I saw some straightners, and the staff was real patient with me asking questions and there is a woman's section. That's a lot of information, but that's the things I liked

Fantastic experience: It's definitely a gym

Positive experience: The best gym in Dunedin before they moved to the current location now not so much

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism

Fantastic experience: Love this place staff are always so friendly and welcoming, great facilities, classes and equipment :))

Fantastic experience: Great reception staff, very clean

Fantastic experience: Love their range of classes and the varying times of classes to fit into people's days.

Fantastic experience: Really good gym, showers really nice , heaps of equipment and rooms and options and stuff

Fantastic experience: Lovely staff and amazing facilities. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Loving the new gym, the spaces available are amazing. The new classes Ceremony and The Trip have reengaged my love for group fitness and I never leave feeling like I haven't worked hard. The trainers and staff are super friendly and always pumped to see you. The 90 minutes free parking in the mall carpark makes it easy to access, and the electronic lockers mean no more physical padlocks and fumbling for keys.

Fantastic experience: Superb place to workout. A bit pricy for a one time session 30$ Excellent machines

Fantastic experience: Gr8 gym

Fantastic experience: Love body jam

Fantastic experience: Great gym, fantastic Pump instructor

Positive experience: Good

Positive experience: Fully loaded gun for all ages from 5 years

Positive experience: Pretty great place, my only compliant is the mens room could do with more frequent cleaning (more a fault of the bozos using the area, than of the cleaning quality)

Positive experience: Get sweaty. Here the grunters who have to show off.... cause let's face it. They make those movies so everyone will look at them... obviously they love themselves

Positive experience: It's got everything you need equipment wise. It's quite large a few floors with a shared gym, a weights area, a women's gym, a couple of studios, and a cycle room.

Negative experience: Dont get me wrong, it's a great gym but they are very misleading and rude when it comes to dealing with memberships. I got told one thing but had to do another. Very very disappointed in the management of this gym

Positive experience: Ok gym. Friendly staff, plenty of weights and machines. Cable machines are not the best, cables feel a bit sticky - perhaps in need of adjustment. Excellent sauna. No designated parking though, which is an issue if you're driving.

Fantastic experience: good place for a workout

Fantastic experience: Les Mills Dunedin is a very deceptive-looking building - it appears small on the outside, but you discover once you start exploring that it's huge on the inside. It's a bright, colourful, light and airy interior with multiple spaces to enjoy your gym experience. Staff are super friendly and welcoming, with expert trainers available to answer your specific fitness questions. It's a well-equipped space with multiple weights and cardio areas, including a separate women's gym and circuit room, spin class space and two spacious studios for classes. Additional sauna options and roomy changing/shower areas with personal locker spaces. It's a great spot with something for everyone!

Fantastic experience: Good reception .
