Good Facilities, but Cleanliness Needs Serious Improvement
The gym itself is decent and the sauna is a real positive, but cleanliness and general upkeep need serious improvement. The changing rooms regularly smell unpleasant, and when I visited yesterday, every women’s toilet was completely blocked and filled with toilet paper, urine and faeces. They were unusable and should have been closed immediately.
There is also no cleaning spray or other way for members to wipe down equipment before and after use, which feels extremely unhygienic. I understand the gym relies on cleaners, but I have never seen any of the equipment being cleaned. The cardio machines are dated, and weights are frequently left scattered around with little apparent effort to keep the gym floor tidy.
There are good facilities here, particularly the sauna, but hygiene and maintenance standards need to improve significantly.

Hi – Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we really appreciate your feedback! We’re pleased to hear you’re enjoying the gym overall and that the sauna is a positive part of your experience 👍
We’re sorry to hear, however, that the cleanliness and upkeep of the facilities haven’t met expectations. Cleanliness is extremely important to us, so it’s disappointing to hear about the condition of the changing rooms and toilets during your visit. We also appreciate your comments regarding equipment cleaning, gym floor organisation and the condition of the cardio equipment.
Your feedback will be passed on to the gym team so these areas can be reviewed and addressed.
Thanks again for your honest feedback!

Overpriced and basic
The equipment is the oldest I’ve ever seen and I’ve been using gyms for the past 25 years. I’ve never seen a member off staff, machines don’t get cleaned and the benches are far too close together to be able to workout without avoiding the person next to you. This is not worth £30 a month

Dim lights and changing rooms timing
I don’t agree with the dim light theme also why the changing rooms are locked during night time?? These two things irritates me a lot and I might not consider another month

Hi there - Thanks for taking the time to leave this review. Our Glasgow South gym is open 24hours and throughout the night, our accessible changing room is open should you need to get changed or grab a shower. We do close some areas (i.e the main changing rooms and saunas) for the safety of our members but our accessible facilities offer complete privacy!
Thanks, The JD Gyms Team 💚

changing room, sanitary water, paper towels
Changing room is a bit small.
A sanitary water dispenser is missing. They currently have a water tap, which others can drink from it directly despite the sign asks to fill bottles only.
Paper towels and cleaning sprays can be provided so athlets clean the equipment after use.

Hello – Thanks for taking the time to leave this review.
We appreciate your comments about the water facilities and the need for clearer separation between drinking and bottle‑filling use, as well as your suggestion around providing paper towels and cleaning sprays. We understand how important these are for maintaining hygiene and ensuring members can clean equipment after use.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.

Joined the gym just this week, as I need a decent 24 hour place to train. This definitely ticks the boxes for what I’m needing! The equipment is good, and it’s never been overly busy when I’ve been in - but I am usually in training before 5am. Definitely one of the better commercial gyms I’ve trained at!

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. We’re sorry to hear about the cleanliness issues you’ve experienced in the toilets, as well as the limited availability of glute equipment and the space feeling narrow. We understand how frustrating it can be to wait for machines and not feel comfortable moving around the gym.

Good range of kit and space
Good range of kit and space, could have more glute machines. Water tastes really chemically so tend to avoid it. Female toilets could be cleaner. Great sauna though!

Dirty Gym
The equipment is always filthy and there’s never any cleaning wipes. There has not been a single time where I’ve gone and there have been wipes. Even if there were, only one wipe supply for the entire gym is crazy. The toilets are also always a mess. Paper towels in the sink that clearly haven’t been cleaned recently. I’m likely going to cancel my membership due to these cleanliness concerns.

Constant facility failures and absent management
I am writing this to warn others about the ongoing state of JD Gyms Glasgow South. Once again, there are no changing facilities or showers available, a problem that has become far too common at this branch.
The most frustrating part is that management is non-existent. There is nobody on-site to address these recurring issues or provide a timeline for repairs. As a paying member, being unable to wash or change after a workout is unacceptable.
Under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974, businesses have a duty of care to provide a safe and hygienic environment. If these basic welfare standards aren't met and the facilities remain out of order, I will be formally reporting this branch to Glasgow City Council’s Environmental Health department.
Fix the facilities and get some visible management on the floor, or you will lose your members.

Good size gym with lots of classes and personal trainers available. The sauna is open late till 10pm and that is very feasable if you are coming late from work. The gym is open 24 hours at a good price membership.
