Battulga Tsogtbaatar 1 year ago

Positive experience: Average gym. Friendly members and clean toilets but lack of mirror and equipment

Naoki Takehana 1 year ago

Positive experience: Overall it’s average gym at least they have minimum equipment for exercise. Machine and Bathroom is always clean and stuff is nice. However, I didn’t satisfied with cancellation process because I required them to send me the cancellation email more than two or three times so it wasn’t smooth.

Positive experience: Showers used to be very clean, now you can spot moulds everywhere. Staff very rude at the reception and not very keen to answer your questions.

Melissa 1 year ago

Positive experience: The QUT Aquatic Centre has friendly lifeguards and I liked the clean indoor pool and toilets. If you want to borrow a kickboard, you can. I recommend bringing a cap and goggles. This is one of my favourite pools in Brisbane.

Fantastic experience: Great gym and pool in the heart of KG Urban village. Plenty of cardio and machines, good free weights and wide range of classes. Finish session with smoothie or meal at one of many cafes outside.

linjin bhang 1 year ago

Negative experience: YMCA used to manage the pool much better than QUT. Ever since QUT took over, soap dispensers in the bathroom/shower booths are always empty and pool tiles on the edge of water are filthy with moulds

Positive experience: My favourite swimming pool. If closer to my place I would definitely keep going there.

Mitra Fakour 2 years ago

Negative experience: The worst gym I’ve ever gone , I wanted to cancel my membership I paid 110$ for cancellation and 40$ more for last payment and they still send me last payment and I have to pay 50$ more , I’m so sorry for your company

Liezel 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great pool. 25m. Showers are fantastic. Very friendly staff. Very helpful that they are in Kelvin Grove Village. So one can combine a swim with some other tasks!

Julie R 2 years ago

Positive experience: Today was not as good as other times that I have been here. There was a local high school here learning how to use scuba equipment. So, some of the lanes were blocked off, and the noise level was loud. Also, the water was colder than normal.

Tracy Lowis 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Terrific aqua aerobics class. Currently run by the YMCA, ownership is returning to QUT in a few months time. Hope they keep the staff because it's very well run.

Scott Smith 2 years ago

Positive experience: Good gym for the price. Pool is usually pretty available. They moved all the clocks forward 10 Minutes and took soap out the showers when new owners came in… a bit weird.

Ross van Haeringen 3 years ago

Positive experience: Too cold

QUT Kelvin Grove Fitness and Aquatic by YMCA

Hi Ross, sorry to hear you were cold during your visit! We know how tricky it can be to stay warm and comfortable during winter workouts. If you have any feedback about our pool water or gym centre temperature, please let us know at https://ymcafitness.com/contact-us.

QUT Kelvin Grove Fitness and Aquatic by YMCA

Thank you for the five stars :)

Paul Willow 3 years ago

Negative experience: One star for Kali and her lacklustre effort to help resolve a payment issue on their end. I'd cancelled my membership so I guess she felt there was no need to make the effort and do her job because, why bother? One star with your name on it, that's why.

QUT Kelvin Grove Fitness and Aquatic by YMCA

Hi Paul, we have followed up your concerns with our Centre Manager and are happy to hear that the payment issue has been resolved. However, we are still sorry that you had a negative experience when trying to get the problem fixed initially. If you have any feedback about the situation or suggestions to help us improve our services, please don’t hesitate to email us at [email protected].

Nic 3 years ago

Positive experience: Only used the gym not the pool. Accepts fitness passport. Gym was OK with fairly new equipment, however equipment availability was limited. There was only one bench press, a couple of fly machines, but many unused treadmills. Could use the space more wisely. Also a bit of rigmarole getting in with fitness passport, they want you to sign into their system as well as FP which is not done at other places. This wasted a bit of time.

amjad ali 3 years ago

Negative experience: Worst experience ever Old rusty gym devices. Horrible receptionists especially Kaly or kale. They have no idea how to deal with customers. Today due their stupidity that lost a long term customer. I won't recommend it for anybody.

QUT Kelvin Grove Fitness and Aquatic by YMCA

Hi Amjad, we have followed up your concerns with our Centre Manager and it is our understanding that the experience described was in regards to our towel policy? We have strict hygiene rules to keep members safe and healthy, which is why it is so important for all gym-goers to use a towel at the facility. We welcome any constructive feedback you may have to help us improve in the future, via email at [email protected].

Q Z 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I only joined last Wednesday and what impressed me most are the staff here, Olivia, Ve, Ellen, Evie and my instructor Emma are all super nice and helpful. This is the place I will do my workout for long-term.

QUT Kelvin Grove Fitness and Aquatic by YMCA

You've got us smiling with your review! Thank you for the kind words, we will pass them on to our amazing staff :) We are so happy you're a part of our Y fitness community!

N W 3 years ago

Negative experience: Terrible customer service at the swimming pool. The so-called 'lifeguard' guy called Michael (something) didn't do his job of 'lifeguard' but keep annoying people in the pool by saying that people cannot learn swimming with a friend - excuse me? Since when, there is a rule saying that people cannot learn with a private coach in the pool? The receptionist called Wee (an Indian-like guy?) also invented his own rule saying that people after swimming lessons, need to pay extra $5 to access the pool for practice? We used other lanes for practice after swimming class, then this guy charged us extra money. However, at all other times, other receptionists were all fine with our practice in other lanes after swimming class. Also, his accent is so difficult to understand what he is talking about. Completely terrible customer service by these two guys. The manager should speak to these unprofessional staff members or send them to somewhere for training before serving. NOT RECOMMENDED.

QUT Kelvin Grove Fitness and Aquatic by YMCA

Hi Nancy, our lifeguards take swimmers’ safety very seriously, which is why we cannot allow unauthorised, private swim lessons in our pool outside of our dedicated swim lesson sessions. Casual swimming in our pool is also separate to swim lessons, which is why there is a small fee for pool access outside of dedicated lesson times. We welcome your constructive feedback at [email protected] to help us improve our services and facilities in the future.
