I had difficulty getting into the gym due to me having just moved to Oxford, but the staff were patient, understanding and helped get me into the gym. Steph was especially lovely, helped me through the processes, and was overall very kind and bubbly.

I would like to share my sincere appreciation for PureGym. From the moment I joined, I?ve been consistently impressed by the professionalism and friendliness of the staff. They are always approachable, supportive, and ready to assist with any questions or guidance. Their welcoming attitude creates a very inclusive and motivating atmosphere for all members.
The gym environment is exceptionally clean, well-maintained, and calm, which makes every workout more enjoyable and stress-free. The equipment is modern, in excellent condition, and there?s always enough available, even during peak hours.
I also appreciate the 24/7 access, the user-friendly app, and the overall great value for money. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced gym-goer, PureGym offers a fantastic space to train comfortably and safely.
Thank you to the entire team for making fitness more accessible, welcoming, and enjoyable. I highly recommend PureGym to anyone looking for a professional, clean, and supportive gym environment.

I have been going to this gym since it re-opened from Covid. The gym is friendly and well-organised, but suffers from really poor building management.
Pros:
- Decent price, student membership gives you access to other puregyms during the vacations
- Well organised equipment, staff do an excellent job keeping it tidy considering how little space there is in Oxford.
- Well-attended and energetic classes.
- Not busy in the mornings, or late at night. (Gets extremely busy from 4-7pm though - I avoid these times entirely.)
- Easy to use app for membership and class organisation
Cons:
- Hygiene: this is a big one. The men's toilets rarely have hand soap (and people then use the equipment - gross!). Sanitisation stations for wiping down seats exist but have been reduced.
- Facilities: showers are pretty grim. Men's toilets are almost always blocked.
- Temperature: over the last year, the air conditioning temperature has been set very high (regardless of the season). It's impossible to wear anything but a thin t-shirt without feeling sick, and I don't do cardio in there anymore.
Update 04/25 : The temperature downstairs is still a massive problem - it's absolutely sweltering in there.

the worst gym, there are no machines to train with because you have 5 big and wide, but otherwise you have so many for cardio. and you have the gym membership of 24.99, it seems absurd to me,,, that's why you don't have customers at the gym because the machines are missing. and notice that everyone goes to buzz because of the few machines. what a shame this company is big but the services offered are rubbish.

Genuinely one of the worst gyms I?ve ever been to, cables feel uneven when pulling. Hot water has been out for over 2 months too? Hand sanitiser is out all the time as well, it?s disgusting. I?ve seen a review below which details the hygiene issues? 2 months ago. Nothing has been done, yet it?s a GYM.
The bar rubber slips off of the attachments and is ultimately dangerous to use with straps (lat pull-down is a prime example of this).
Only pro is for the times I?ve been there it?s been pretty quiet and I haven?t had to wait long for equipment.

Using a shower after a workout seems a very basic expectation. Again and again not provided to customers in this place.

Good gym but it stinks of damp

I switched from a different group of gyms and I wish I had done so sooner. This is a great gym choice: affordable, fantastic location, safe lockups for bike, good kit( machines, weights etc) , plenty of space for stretching and free weights, all round spotless: the lockers- showers all usable and useful. I also really appreciate the online classes, the chance to use other gyms when I travel. Altogether I am getting much better value than my previous gym membership. This is by far the best gym option in Oxford.

Big but for what? Only has a handful of capable machines (I think two?) And like a million treadmills and steps and cycle machines. Why too little space for strength building

A bit busy but good price and facilities
