My dream gym

Advantages: Really good place to relax and raise self esteem as well as get really fit
Disadvantages: A bit pricy and minimum one year subscribtion

...Where is it: Esporta Kingston is situated in a 3 minute walk from Kinston train station, the bus stop is near by and next to Sainsbury’s. There is a massive car park in front of it. It is pay and display sadly. How did I join: I went to get some milk in Sainsbury’s and thought why not check this place out. so I went in and asked how much was the membership. Before I actually got the answer I was shown the whole gym and told all about it. Next ...
...costs £49 a months. It is a one year contract, direct debit payment. Membership can be frozen if any valid reasons given like broken leg, long holiday or no money to pay. My joining fee was around £80. Plus I got the rest of December free. Now the prices are like that: joining fee £69. Monthly adult membership also £69. Students £49, under 17's £29 Generally they do some freebies when you join like free private trainer sessions. Induction There ...

Sports Club in Kinston upon Thames

Advantages: good facilities and not too busy
Disadvantages: quite expensive compared to other sports clubs

...and are members of the Esporta gym on the Richmond Road. When they told me that I could get a days free membership trial if I entered my details on their website I jumped at the chance. The gym is in a good location, approximately three minutes walk from kingston train station. I made good use of my days trial, had a swim in the pool, used the steam room and sauna and afterwards even did a quick gym workout. The swimming pool was very nice and I ...
...weekend. They had designated swimming lanes in place for those wanting to do a good workout, aswell as plenty of extra pool space for those just wanting to relax. I was told several times by my friends that there was loads of equipment in the gym and there is, although a number of the machines (weights and cardio) are repeated and so the total number of different machines is significantly lower than on first inspection. It appeared to me that they ...

Esporta Kingston is Very Poor

Advantages: Children friendly including baby pool, creche and other kids pastimes, food in cafe, free towels to use.
Disadvantages: Price, Gym equipment, Changing rooms, cleanliness, pay for parking, membership contract

...certainly would never have joined Esporta except for the childrens creche and other children facilities enabling our family to be able to use a local health and fitness club with this reasonable facility. As I said in advantages the only way I think that anyone could consider joining this club is if you have children under 16 especially very young ones which you can leave in the creche or a class whilst you work out. Even though they provide facilities ...
...suspect it could be if Esporta pay low rates. CHANGING FACILITIES: Layout and design of changing rooms beggars belief. Very difficult to utilise when a number of people using. Showers work by a sensor making use a problem as often the sensor keeps turning off and you often have to wait for shower to come back on with temperature fluctuating. Cleanliness of the changing rooms and shower area leaves a lot to be desired. They hardly seem to have anyone ...

Quick review of Esporta Club, Kingston-Upon-Thames

Beware of signing up. The are not honest about the contract you are signing - they want three m onths notice to cancel membership (the OFT says this is unreasonable). They claim they haven't received notice of cancellation, and when you cancel your dd after a year, they sell the debt to debt collections solicitors ARC who use bullying tactics to get money. Beware and avoid like the plague. ...

Review of Esporta Club, Kingston-Upon-Thames

Esporta - Don't do it

Advantages: Looks smart
Disadvantages: poor service, expensive, staff aren't really interested

Esporta will get you to sign a credit agreement without telling you it is a credit agreement. If you don't find their services suitable or up to standard they will make half an effort to address the issues then cut off contact. You will then hear from a Debt Collection Agency threatening to take you to Court. Currently we are having to use our solicitor to sue for breach of contract. I seriously advise you go somewhere else. We were told our daughter ...
...signed we were told this was not the case. The todler pool was always broken, the hot tub and main pool freezing and the toliets never had any soap (how often were they checked?). My experience are based on Esporta Norwich and the Esporta Head Office. ...
