CityFitness Nelson: Opinions
Negative experience: Went into enquire about joining for a short term as on holiday and had the most unhelpful lady. Wasn't really rude just missing key elements of customer service like smiling, being helpful or even a pinch of enthusiasm. Missed opportunity.

Fantastic experience: Super clean
Hi, Rémy. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!
Positive experience: Received multiple parking tickets for breaching the 2 hr limit. Unfortunately nobody informed me about the parking restrictions.
Hey there, we're sorry to hear about your experience. We have signage located around the car park stating the terms and limits.
Negative experience: Recently been kicked out because of “school uniform pants”. They display zero logos of any school yet still result in me being asked to leave?
Hey Arren, we acknowledge your concerns regarding the dress code. Should you wish to discuss this further, please contact our Member Services team at [email protected] or call 0800 348 637. They are available to investigate any issues you may have.
Fantastic experience: Been at this gym for 4 years now and its got the best gym culture out of all the gyms I have been to in the past, no one at this gym thinks they are above anyone else and has it every bit of equipment that you would need. Always such a great atmosphere here.
Thanks Mike !
Negative experience: This place is a scam. The best advice I can give is to not pay your bill with them and this will get back at them for all the taking advantage of people that they do! Very angry. I have a disability and I had only three showers there when I was homeless. They cancelled my members and sold it to debt collectors. I paid $500 for three showers. I hate city fitness. Please don't pay your debts them them!
Hey Jacob, we're sorry to hear about your experience. We always strive to be clear and fair with our policies, and we never want anyone to feel taken advantage of.

Positive experience: I only use versa-climbers or stair machines. They had the stair machines and then were clean and all the bells and whistles worked. Staff was friendly and helpful. The facility was clean and bright, with plenty of fans going.
Thanks Douglas!
Fantastic experience: Great place to work out
Thanks Samuel!
Negative experience: I'm not one to really review places however I haven't been super impressed with this city fitness. I'm in Nelson on holiday from Christchurch and have been going to the two city fitness' up here and have found that the general quality of the machines is much worse than Christchurch. This is due to the age and the maker of the machines Star Trac which are feel like cheaper machines. In general the building is feeling aged and although it gets the job done not its nowhere near the same quality as the Christchurch ones. I went after hours so didn't interact with any staff, I'm sure they are great but the equipment and building didn't meet my expectations.
Hi Jack, thanks for taking the time to leave a review. We are always looking at ways to improve our clubs, and appreciate the feedback provided. We will take it into consideration.
Fantastic experience: Awesome gym
Hi Trishy, thank you for your great review
Negative experience: Lots of hidden fees when signing up, you end up paying more each week too than advertised. After a couple months i asked to downgrade my membership at the nelson club, i was told i couldn’t and i would have to cancel, and start another membership which included another $50 fee, I then leave and call another city fitness. The guy was easy and helpful, told me it can be done and within a minute he sent me a link to downgrade my membership. No extra fees. You have untrained staff in the CBD working there by themselves, that have no clue what theyr doing apart from dusting the machines from time to time, sort it out.
Hi there, thank you for your feedback. We will ensure this is passed on so all staff members know the process of downgrades and can make sure that it is a smooth process for members moving forward.
Negative experience: Equipment broken and doesn't get repaired for days. No spin classes. I used to belong to Lyall bay CF and much better service.
Hi Jill, thank you for your review. If there is equipment that needs repaired please submit a maintenance request through our CityFitness app so we can make sure this is back in working order ASAP!
Negative experience: $5 gym class, okay, but a small room and it was crowded. But I can’t support a business that refuses legal tender.
Fantastic experience: Having a positive and motivational time with my P/T Leo Voitlander at City fitness. Nice friendly environment all round.
Fantastic experience: Best gym
Fantastic experience: My going on 15-year-old mithered me for well over a yr to go to the gym. As i work shift work and 50+ hrs pw, it wasnt at the top of my list to be heading there after or before work. So when I found out city fitness allows 14+yr olds to go to the gym unsupervised, I was over joyed knowing I would never be asked again. For only $6.99pw it was a no brainer. All I needed to do was sign a waver and obviously pay a fee and commit to a yrs membership. Bargain.
Hi Dawn, thank you for your great feedback
Negative experience: The worst gym I’ve ever been! The equipment is really old, it’s very busy and there’s no enough space for everyone. The treadmill is so old and useless for those who wants to train hard.
Negative experience: I do not recommend. They made me pay 4 weeks to cancel the system, no one told me anything. Terrible, go to another gym
Fantastic experience: J'ai fais beaucoup de gym en Nouvelle-Zélande sur l'île du Nord comme sur l'île du Sud, est pour l'instant c'est la meilleurs gym que j'ai faite ! Le personnel est au top avec un accueil digne de vos plus grands hôtels. La salle est très propre, la communauté est aussi très ouverte. Parfait si vous êtes juste de passage comme moi. J'y retournerai à coup sûr ! Thanks Z

Positive experience: very good just wish it had more leg machines. Had to wait aaaages to use anything. Everything else fine
Hi Samuel, thanks for your feedback. We will pass it on to the club
Positive experience: Decent size city fitty. Will find most of what you need, if it gets busy you'll be waiting a minute!
Hi Luke, thanks for your excellent feedback!
Negative experience: The staff were not really interested in showing me around. Too much effort for them, in both gyms. The extra fees are well hidden in small print rather than up front. No problem with the fees. I don't appreciate the dodgy dated attitude of hiding the info. It's cheaper than some other gyms and you get what you pay for....however basic customer service should not have a price tag. Just not for me.
Hi Tina, thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear this was your experience with our gym. Please give our member services team a call on 0800 348 637 to discuss your concerns so we can ensure that members don't feel this way when visiting our clubs.
Positive experience: I'm a regular here, the atmosphere is great with friendly staff. The equipment is generally modern and works well except for the cross trainers which can't hold a programme for more than a few minutes. They are a pain in the butt. Most people do not bring a towel but instead use the paper towels provided.
Hi Steve, thanks for your great feedback! We're glad to hear you're enjoying our gym!
Positive experience: Not bad.
Negative experience: Rude staff among other reasons
Fantastic experience: Less crowded specially in morning time. Best trainers
Hi Ashish, Thank for your great feedback!!
Negative experience: They have the worst customer service. When I subscribed and went to the gym there was no one at the reception during the staffed hours. I called the number but no answer. I wanted to cancel the contract but they said no. What a service.
We're sorry to hear you had a negative experience. We'll be sure to address this with our Nelson team. You can also reach out to our Member Service team for help: [email protected]
Positive experience: Very good. Staff are friendly and helpful. They have 2 new massage chairs.

Positive experience: Good gym, needs a few more newer machines that other gyms have.. but good overall setout
Positive experience: Very modern feel to it - not like the city fitness gyms I'm used to. Staff was proficient and they are very hygiene concerned which is good. Quite small but I believe there is another one in town. It was good.

Fantastic experience: best gym ever!

Negative experience: Only members. Couldn't get in for a single entry because "unstaffed". Bad service.
Thank you Kevin for your feedback. We do offer a one off casual visitors rate of $20.00 during staffed hours, as long as you are over the age of 18 years.
Positive experience: It's fine. Hours are not good because you don't have time to take shower
Positive experience: I was visiting nelson and it cost 20 dollars to enter, the space was great and service was good
Negative experience: Blonde dude that works there was on a power trip or something and made me and my mate go buy sweat towels or we couldnt train. (Did a quick browse on the website after that and found it doesn't actually say towels are part of the gym etiquette) 2 other people waiting with us didnt have towels either but didnt get told anything. Went and bought the towels and got inside finally only to count out at least 5 people without towels... ginger dude was cool, staff pretty friendly besides that
Negative experience: Nice clean equipment, employee told me at sign up that I dont have to worry about 30 day cancellation fee/notice as I am travelling and wouldnt know when I'm leaving. Money is still be taking out of my account after cancellation. Kind of a bummer when they lie to you to get you signed up.
Fantastic experience: Good place for gym
Fantastic experience: Amazing, nice staff, good equipment. No judgement.
Fantastic experience: best gym ever!
Fantastic experience: Great gym good classes and friendly staff.
Fantastic experience: Bloody great
Positive experience: Great gym
Negative experience: Bad contracts that are a pain to get out of, whilst they do tell you about the system of signing up and fact you have to stay on for a year or get ripped off it is not an exuse. It makes you feel used and the faft that otehe gyms do so is not an exuse but makes it worse. Whilst the equipment is good it's time to stand up for oursleves and not put up with this.
Hi Lachlan, We are sorry to hear you had a negative experience. We have both contract & no contract memberships that all require 30 days notice to cancel. The terms and conditions are in all membership agreements.

Positive experience: great facilities, loads of trainers and not a lot of peacocks!
Positive experience: Very spacious with great classes and instructors. Front desk staff leave something to be desired.
Positive experience: Good gym, good classes, but pretty small in comparison to the other city fitnesses. It would be plus if we could use the upstairs training area. That's sectioned off for pt sessions.

Fantastic experience: Great staff
Fantastic experience: Everything is here to keep up your fitness regime.
