Positive experience: Everything available and tidy

Fantastic experience: Great little garage style gym. Everything you need for a top workout.

Fantastic experience: Nice gym. Need to upgrade equipment.

Positive experience: I gym here every week, it is a decent sized space, fairly open and with good equipment. The membership prices are much more affordable then anywhere else in town. The staff and people are friendly and it's pretty easy to make friends if you want to. This gym is not as flash as the other gyms but if the appearance of the gym doesn't matter so much to you as the actual purpose of the gym then you'll be sweet.

Negative experience: I'm knowledgeable on both nutrition and fitness. Have been lifting naturally for over a decade so have been to many gyms over the years. From old school to new school. This is going to be a very honest review. First of all lets cover the biggest con that I have not seen anyone here mention yet. THE MENS BATHROOM & TOILET. This is the dirtiest and unkept bathroom facility I have ever seen in any gym. The showers were grimey and didn't look sanitized or cleaned. The toilet had an old smell like it hardly gets disinfected. The dust and dirt accumulation reveals a lack of maintenance. I understand its an old building but this is no excuse. Very poor hygienic maintenance which for me is the biggest con of all. The next con is the lack of update in machinery. As a learnt lifter I can make it work with what little there is, but the simplist things like no grip handles on dip bars that are torn off. Uncomfortable to use despite being an easy fix. Equipment is outdated which does not bother me, but again the lack of maintenance and care is no excuse. And the last con of course is the pricing and forced contracts due to pricing. When considering the first two cons why is the price so high? I can go to City Fitness for so much less or even to another gym with higher standards, clean facilities, better quality in machines, more equipment, and all for the same price or even cheaper. I recognize that there are bills to pay but for the last time, there is no excuse what so ever for any of these cons listed in my review. However, the staff are friendly, the members are friendly, the music isn't loud compared to some modern gyms who have turned there gyms into a night club. Not everyone who works all day wants to have loud drum and bass music drilled into there ears. Some of us just want to relax or train hard with our own music. I guess they have crossfit classes but that does not interest me, you dont need it if your self taught in this lifestyle. Another pro is the free trial, which is good because most gyms dont offer it, but overall I would not hang around, too many negatives then there is positives.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in rotorua

Fantastic experience: Best gym ever to work out in no judgement at all always open and very comfortable there best gym ever

Fantastic experience: Great gym, great facilities, high energy atmosphere and awesome staff.

Fantastic experience: Im a brain injury victim through an assult so i have anxiety, anger, fatigue memory issues which makes it hard to enter public filled places. This gym was perfect for me as its not overwhelmingly big so I felt welcomed, staff and other gym users are very down to earth and friendly. Yes some equipment aint state of the art but they do get the job done and thats what counts.

Fantastic experience: I have been coming to the heart of gold for 7 years now it's a been a great help after suffering a heart attack and meeting so many people who have been through the same things as me it's so good because we get to use the gym as well taken through a series of exercises with Raewyn Best thing I have ever did.

Fantastic experience: Been coming here on and off for years, and will continue to keep coming back, staff are always so friendly and happy to help - especially when I hit a plateau and need to change up the routine to achieve my goals.

Positive experience: This gym is awesome, has everything we need and more. Allows our rangatahi to attend the gym with us. And is responsive to requests. Recently they have been very supportive towards the World NZ Elite Womens Waka Ama trialists. They come from all over NZ and are basing a number of their camps here in Rotorua, before they head to London in August 2022. Very appreciative of continuously supporting whakawhanaungatanga, connectedness and wellbeing in our community.

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym has real weights

Fantastic experience: A little cold in winter, but good Facilities

Fantastic experience: Went to the Heart Of Gold class. Raewyn gave an enjoyable fun class. Everyone has a great time.

Fantastic experience: Awesome all round gym for all shapes and sizes. Great place to train if you're a beginner, intermediate or advanced in your training as they have everything you need to get the job done. Nice friendly staff and even better they also have the crossfit gym in the back that have classes running morning and afternoons. 5 stars

Positive experience: It's alright ae

Negative experience: Staff are friendly enough but the whole place is really old and tired :/ (Don’t know how it got 5 star reviews?!)

Fantastic experience: Heaps of machines and plenty advice. Great customer service. Friendly environment.

Negative experience: Old equipment, messy and just generally very tired. Would be better to go for a run than spend 20 minutes trying to match dumbbells and work out the mismatched equipment. Even if you're desperate for a workout on holiday wouldn't bother.

Fantastic experience: Excellent location, friendly staff members. Lots off car parking. Clean & tidy place. Open 24/7.

Positive experience: Great Gym, Steve and the team are great to deal with......Anaru behind the reception desk is friendly and accomodating, nothing is a problem, Tania is friendly always checking up on you to see how you are progressing...

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Golds Gym and Heart of Gold for about 5 years now since recovering from heart surgery. I have meet some super people and made some great friends. The exercises with Raewyn have helped me get to where I am today. The sessions are help on a Tuesday and Thursday, and on those days we are able to use the main gym and some of us go on a Wednesday which is a great help. The gym is the last place I thought I would go but it has been a real help of the last years.

Fantastic experience: Great gym to workout in! Staff are fantastic and very helpful.

Fantastic experience: We attended this gym temporarily over the xmas holidays 2018/2019. The atmosphere was refreshingly friendly and Steve and the team hooked us up with a great deal for 24/7 access. They have all the equipment you need to get a solid workout in and also have a crossfit gym out the back. This will now be our gym every time we stay in rotorua!

Fantastic experience: Love the staff and great environment, so many people there to help you feel motivated and it also caters for all ages

Fantastic experience: Heaps of machines and plenty advice. Great customer service. Friendly environment.

Positive experience: Appreciate the cross fit set up.

Fantastic experience: Grate place. Extremely friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!!!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication

Fantastic experience: Great gym. friendly people

Negative experience: 절대 가지 마세요... 계속해서 거짓말만 하네요...

Negative experience: The gym hasn’t been updated seems like since the 1970s. The machines were old, broken or so limited it was hard to get a descent workout. The gym was messy and weights were all mixed up where I couldn’t find matching dumbbells. Calling it a gym is a loose use of the term. Calling it maybe a CrossFit gym would better describe the gym layout .

Fantastic experience: great gym

Fantastic experience: Cool gym, cool people

Fantastic experience: I currently train here, loving it so far, friendly staff and sufficient trainer, cheap deals and its 24/7 not bad and no negative vibes being there its great no one interrupts me

Fantastic experience: Perfect place to workout and meet new people, staff are always incredibly helpful and nice

Positive experience: Bit cramped moving from machine to machine, lots of weights options to push heavy,

Negative experience: If you want to come to this gym to get a pump from the music you might as well not go, this gym has lack taste of music in a gym you would want to hear beast music not boring music or music you want to listen to when you want to chillout, bring your on headphones the music when hitting the gym the music puts you off, well puts me off.

Fantastic experience: Looks great i joined up 4 months ago but hvent trained yet lol
