Our comment from FitFit Australia about Blacktown Leisure Centre Stanhope:

Blacktown Leisure Centre Stanhope is a spacious facility that offers a wide range of amenities for fitness and recreation. Many users appreciate the great indoor pools, perfect for relaxing and swimming, particularly noting the wave pool that provides a fun experience for families.

Families particularly enjoy the kids' activities and swimming lessons, with several parents expressing satisfaction with the instructors and the swimming facilities. Moreover, many users find the clean and well-maintained facilities to be an added advantage.

Negative experience: "Regarding ROWED management, I strongly advise against visiting their swimming pool. The staff there are unhelpful. When my kids were in distress, they did not offer assistance. I had to rescue my kids myself. The management informed me that the staff's responsibility was to watch the pool, not the kids. I highly discourage anyone from going there. The staff is very grumpy and uncooperative."

Samuelafroditu Benyam 11 months ago

Negative experience: I visited Blacktown Leisure Centre Stanhope this afternoon and witnessed a concerning incident. A mother was struggling to rescue her children from drowning, while the lifeguards were standing and watching. Some strangers jumped in to help the mother, but the staff at the leisure centre were unwelcoming and treated my children poorly. My family and I felt very unwelcome and the staff was rude and unapologetic. The manager, Brenda, spoke to the struggling mother and showed no sympathy for the situation, stating that it was not the lifeguards' responsibility to help the children. This experience was very disappointing, and I strongly advise against taking children to this leisure centre.

arnie umayam 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I went here on Sunday around 3 in the afternoon, and there were heaps of people lining up in the cafe, and there were only two ladies working. It is quite surprising that they can do their job properly but it took them a while, and I understand that. Kudos to your staff.

Fantastic experience: We go for our infant's swim lessons every week. Staff at reception is very helpful, and always answer the phone without long waits too. The instructor is lovely and very sweet with all bubbs. I'm happy with all of them.

Afshin Forghani 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Clean, warm water, the best for early morning swimming, and most importantly, no need to have membership.

Hope C 1 year ago

Negative experience: I do not recommend taking your child here for swimming lessons. Myself and several other families have had continuous issues with the temperature of the water, it is FREEZING! Multiple employees have admitted to it being too cold but say they’re working on it, which is a white lie. On the note of employees, they’re horrible grumps, not friendly, not approachable. In regards to water temp, I’ve seen babies scream from the temp, including my own, deterring them from being able to become accustomed to water. I’ve also seen babies swimming without swim nappies, and no staff member has told them the regulations of a baby not being bare bottomed in the water, the health risk in regards to that is shocking. The swim teachers are on a high horse, yelling at students like they’re training for the olympics, unsure what their motivation is. This establishment never answers their phones, communication amongst staff is terrible. My final note, DO NOT TAKE YOUR CHILDREN HERE.

Ankur Chauhan 1 year ago

Negative experience: I wish I could take video of this… Hope Blacktown leisur center Stanhope check cctv for instructors 2, 9 & 4 for wed 17/07/2024 between 530pm & 6pm. Instructors constantly talking to each other, hardly paying any attention to kids swimming (almost like kids swimming unsupervised), all kids get to either ends of the pool and wait for few minutes before instructors finish talking and instruct them further. Council has increased prices however the quality and dedication of the instructors going down. Most instructors hardly pay attention and barely instruct kids. I raised this concern with their supervisor in past and I was told the kids should be swimming independently and we (parents) should be bringing our children more often to swimming pools.

Michelle Abboud 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I mostly attend the aqua aerobic classes and the gym. Love the fact that this centre is only a few mins drive from me, and right next to the shops too. Carpark can get busy sometimes if a lot of events are on, and sometimes there can be a wait for the showers as theres only 4 showers. But all in all, i love my membership

Sonia P 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great place on a rainy winter day. The pool is heated and it was nice and warm. It has a nice lazy pool which is perfect for kids especially toddlers and babies. The price is reasonable too.

Michael Norrington 1 year ago

Positive experience: Wish it was a 50m pool. But 25 will do... Gets pretty cramped when lessons are on in the afternoons. They usually take half the pool which is a bit ridiculous and cram everyone into 5 lanes.. Which they expect 10 people to be able to swim per 25m lane lol. But when its quiet its pretty solid. Lockers sometimes don't work which is pretty annoying as i am very wary about my valuables. All in all its a good venue thats ok for a pool. Defs better in sydney but its the only decent pool near me so it will do.

Fantastic experience: Centrally located with state of the art facilities (one stop shop) where while family can spend quality time with a wide range of physical activities like swimming, workout etc Feather in the hat is the staff there. They are just wonderful with a helping attitude all the time. A special mention to the lady Alannah who helped me in the registration process this afternoon.

Garden Technology 1 year ago

Negative experience: We've been years with their swimming school, no problem, until they changed payments to derict debit last year, from the first payment they started taking penalties for every child, checked with the bank no problem plenty of Funds, check with them they don't know, passed a whole term or 2 with the same problem. When we asked refund for our unfair penalties they said to contact derict debit! Waw is that my job? Though We did contact them, they referred us back to the centre.... Did a complaint, unfortunately they did nothing, what they did is stealing unfair money from a family of 5 kids while they are still confused about their new payment system, we left with no return after being customers for 7 years!

V T 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great gym/ awesome teams.. however I don't much like going to their spa/pool area. It can feel a bit not so hygienic.. The Badminton courts are great if you are on court 1-4. Court 5-8 have very poor lighting and you can end up hurting yourself if they don't install blinds to fix it.. Otherwise this is a blessing in the neighbourhood..

Thuan Nguyen 1 year ago

Negative experience: Hundreds of people filming their children learning swimming lesson. The lifeguard only stopped me from filming my daughter swimming alone, not even other children around her. While he's asking me to stop filming, other adults were still filming their children. 12/04/2024 03:50 PM on the first swimming lane. When having the waved pool, most of the adults filmed, no one stopped them, but this lifeguard told me that the policy is not to film in the centre. There's no "No Camera" sign as well.

Brett 1 year ago

Negative experience: This place is filthy, hot and unappealing. There are adults swimming in clothes that look filthy (long pants and t shirts), and presumably the same underwear they’ve worn all day, which is against the rules but no one ever directs them to wear swimwear. There is a man who swims in the leisure part of the lap pool every Thursday afternoon in his filthy clothes and he is always filling his mouth with water and spitting it out. Again, no one ever says anything. My children caught that nasty bug that is going around from the pool.

Shai 1 year ago

Positive experience: Always busy. Enjoying the classes and hoping to get our kids swimming classes there soon. Like the library and we have often gone for Rhyme time which is always fun for kids. Love the concept of having many activites in one spot and conveniently located for shops too.

Fatemeh Noori 1 year ago

Negative experience: Big center, not very clean swimming pool and change rooms. Pool is full of chlorine to the extend that ur eyes burn. Sport salons don't have much ventilation and they are very hot and suffocating inside as there us no cooling or air conditioning system not even fans. Very big sport halls though and many restrooms available throughout which is great and they are clean.

Positive experience: Having a kid lane could be nice for the people who wants to exercise in the slow lane… Next time I’ll know that I need to come over in the early morning… Otherwise good indoor swimming pool.

Cheryl Keane 1 year ago

Positive experience: With the heat it was very busy, however the staff were great. They kept a watchful eye on all the patrons and even evicted unruly and troublesome teenagers. Appreciated their efforts.

Shey G 1 year ago

Negative experience: They said wave pool will be open by 4.30pm. They charged the same. They Should honestly have a maximum capacity in these pools especially when they close the wave pool and toddler areas. It was disgusting to see so many people just a metre or less apart in the pool. Most of them were fully clothed, we also caught a few disgusting things around the pool and people clearing their noses and mucus in the pool. Disgusting!!!

Sidrah Olla 1 year ago

Negative experience: RUDE STAFF! I totally agree to ALL the people who have complained about the rudeness of the staff members! And YES the life guards are for display purposes only as they are not even prepared to jump if there was an actual emergency. Bathrooms are disgusting! Staff are most likely to tell you off rather than doing their jobs! NO family rooms anymore coz it’s now CHANGE ROOMS where a single person can take forever while the actual families are waiting. SINGLE mums you are somehow expected to supervise your child in the men’s bathroom if your boy is over 8 “for your child’s safety” or be prepared to wait forever for A change room is available which in most cases 2 out of 5 are out of service. They’ve increased the price but then there should be improvement in service too. Staff no need to be friendly but at least be kind!!

Kristina N 1 year ago

Negative experience: Shutting at 5pm on the weekends in Summer is so bizarre and results in so much overcrowding and frustration. It’s literally the peak time people want to use the facilities why do they close so early? Even Riverstone pool shuts at 8pm. The gym layout is pretty terrible too and so overdue for a revamp/extension. There is nowhere to do free weights or stretching.

Positive experience: My review is in particular with tennis courts. Need a lot Of improvements to be made and required cracks to be filled up. Dangerous to play with couple of courts very slippery. Also need clear directions of parking near the tennis courts.

Positive experience: As a support worker I was disappointed by the way the reception girls reaction. I brought a customer there 1st time. He forgot his companion card but still has Ndis number I explained to the girl the situation and she still made me pay. As if I am lying. Omg sometimes U guys need some compassion. On that day my client was very uncomfortable. That's why I let it go. U Guys you don't need to be friendly but nice to people.

Viral Mercy 1 year ago

Negative experience: Terrible pools if you want to swim! Went today to do laps & got kicked out of the lanes as they were doing swimming lessons. So only 2 lanes to do laps with about 10 people trying to swim per lane. Just ridiculous. Rude staff, would not bother going again

Michael Herne 1 year ago

Negative experience: Went here with my Mrs today. Honestly did not enjoy myself. As many people have stated the staff are rude and arrogant. I understand that they have a job to do but get off your high horse. The pools and bathrooms themselves feel very unclean. By the time we got out of the pool and getting changed I was already coughing my guts up and went home with the flu this very evening. I'll take my business back to Olympic Park.

Video Webb 1 year ago

Negative experience: Asian guy in food area with glasses worst customer service of my entire life. embarrassment. He needs to get out of the industry as he doesn’t even have common manners. Many have complained already, he needs retraining or find a new career path. Ruined my day with his antics. Bye.

Javana Lankatheepan 1 year ago

Negative experience: Went to the place about 2 weeks ago to enroll my kids in swimming.Was advised by staff that the enrollment is on the 4th Jan. Got there at 8am only to be told that it's all taken up and has been booked by existing students. Similar thing happened in the previous enrollment attempt as well. It's a bit misleading to have flyers and everything printed and advice people to enroll when there are no spots. There's also no waiting list available.

Daniel Grech 1 year ago

Negative experience: Absolutely disgusted in this centre. Went from Hawkesbury Oasis to here as this is now my local and I never thought a kid could go backwards in learning how to swim. They cancelled my sons membership as the payment had failed after he’s been there for 6months and than when I ring to pay it I came across a woman who was from reception who didn’t put me through to the swim centre and just told me it’s bad luck and my sons spot had been taken within the half hour of cancellation email being sent out. Mind you when I called I was on hold for 25mins. So they apparently filled it straight away. Good luck ever finding a parking spot here too. They need to fix that. It’s a nightmare. Looks like going back to Hawkesbury for the extra drive is the way to go.

Sara 1 year ago

Negative experience: asian guy with the glasses that works at the cafe is very rude and needs re-training or to be fired. he sold stale chips that were 3 months out of date yet refused to exchange them due to “policy”. absolutely disgusting, this cafe needs to be shut down or sold to people who actually care about customer service. I wish I had his name to report him to management.

Balaraman R 1 year ago

Positive experience: Used to be my favourite local swimming pool.. but unfortunately the place feels aging / rundown, it needs some renovations. The price for casual entry still good though but the members is not

Rosita Juniper 1 year ago

Negative experience: JAN 29 - Poor customer service by young asian man with glasses in the food kiosk, me and my young niece were laughing after he had served us and he immediately came to conclusion we were making fun of him acting as if the world revolved around him. He stormed up at us and shouted WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM and shot us dirty looks, we were confused the whole time and he came back another time and said WHATEVER YOU ARE SAYING ABOUT ME YOU BETTER STOP, I tried to explain we were not laughing about him and he stormed off, when he gave us our food I tried rectifying the situation by asking him what makes you think we were talking about you and he stormed off yet again. Rude rude service and no professionalism what so ever. I suggest you change your attitude and stop thinking the world revolves around you. Disgusting behaviour, I am not one to talk about others especially a hospitality worker I do not know. I will not be returning to this centre after this experience.

Mathew Gafa 1 year ago

Negative experience: I've been training at the gym for a number of years and things never change. It was located conveniently for me, but have since found better gyms in the area. Broken equipment takes forever to be fixed, weight equipment is old and been updated once in over ten years. The only reason I didn't give it one star is the classes are good.

S Muralitharan 1 year ago

Negative experience: I have been doing Lab swimming every morning fr 12 years in this pool . Was kicked out of Lab swimming today because it is 20 years anniversary. The Manager of the pool is rude does not accept complaint well . This is not the first time , she is rude seen her rude many times with others . She is asking to complain to Mayor . The Manager needs more training on courtsey . Mayor pl note how long term members are treated in this facilities

Hemanta Sapkota 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I go to the Blacktown Leisure Centre Stanhope every day for a swim, spa, hot steam, and sauna. It’s an excellent way to destress and has become a daily habit for me. The leisure center itself is well-maintained and clean, with plenty of amenities to keep me coming back. The pools are spacious and well-heated, making for a comfortable swimming experience. The spa, steam room, and sauna are all great for relaxation, and I love spending time in them after a swim. The staff at the leisure center are also fantastic. They’re always friendly and helpful, and they go above and beyond to make sure that I have a great experience. Overall, I would highly recommend the Blacktown Leisure Centre Stanhope to anyone looking for a great place to swim, relax, and destress. It’s become a regular part of my routine, and I can’t imagine going without it.

Sagar Kumar 1 year ago

Negative experience: The person is Andrian, so rude he is. Staff is not good, No sense how to speak to anyone, always speak with abuse language. And the quality of pool is such a rubbish, if you go that means you waste your money. So, plz don’t go in this pool, choose another pool for enjoying… Literally, I waste my precious time to go in this pool.

Jacqui Pendergast 1 year ago

Negative experience: WORST POOL I HAVE BEEN TO. If you wanted to do lap swimming this pool is not for you. Kids blocking off fast/medium lanes to stand and play in, while lifeguards watch and do not tell them to go to the other spaces available. Very unsafe as I collided multiple times with different children who were crossing my lane and playing because they thought it was okay.

L W 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great place to learn to swim, both for kids and adults. The instructors are very nice.

Maggie Camilleri 1 year ago

Positive experience: It's not a bad pool, they have a baby pool and a toddler pool and then they have 2 lap pools at different lengths and heights and a wave pool which goes off once an hour for about 5 minutes. Only bad thing is that most Sundays all the kids pools and the wave pool is closed in the morning as they "don't have enough staff" so if your coming with kids and those are closed they really have nowere to swim unless you plan on getting in the deep pools with them, and even then most of the pool lanes are taken up with swimming instructor classes so there's like one lane left for everyone to squish into which isn't the best when you have little kids

Brianna Lewis 1 year ago

Positive experience: The cafe is a hidden gem for food! Not a lot activity wise but the wave pool is fun! Swimming lessons are great here my kids love it!

Nettie (Nettie) 1 year ago

Negative experience: Took advantage of the kids program trying different sports and skill, they had the kids on the tennis court the whole time. Tennis was just one activity, hockey, basketball, soccer, cricket... hard to learn how to play those on a tennis court. Waste of active voucher, should have just chosen 1 sport, but tried to give my kid a chance to learn a few and see what they liked. Gave up after 4 of 8 weeks, not worth it! Rest of complex might be ok, but not sure i want to bother with their half a-- attempt at sport on this occasion.

Jannat Khan 1 year ago

Positive experience: Went to the swimming pool, the website says closing at 9:00pm, after buying passes for all, the counter lady says they are closing in less than an hour. Didn't get any answer or a refund for not disclosing the hours prior to buying a ticket. The kids were really disappointed. More pool options for kids, compared to the one at Blacktown (Devitt St) one. Overall experience, average.

Positive experience: So far, every member of staff I've met has been quite pleasant and helpful. The facilities are modern and spotless. In the winter, the pools are warm and comfortable to use.

D Mac 1 year ago

Negative experience: I've sign up there previously with my fitness passport and when I tried accessing the gym my pass wouldn't work so the lady told me to go to reception to resign with my fitness passport. When I went to the receptionist the guy said I needed my physical card which I did not have. I had went onto the fitness passport website with my details showing him that it's active and also got my wife to send me a photo of my fitness passport which he said nah not good enough and was completely rude. All I wanted was to train with my mate who was already inside and they still made me pay $22.50 for an entry fee for the gym. They weren't even reasonable as I was willing to come the next day to bring my physical card. I know for a fact with other big gyms like Riley's, plus fitness and world gym, if you forgot your pass and your a fitness passport member, all you need is to show them your fitness passport number and they'll let you in. Please train your staff with better customer service.

Man Reviews 1 year ago

Negative experience: Mediocre experience! Before visiting this facility, be prepared to do more lifeguarding than the actual lifeguards themselves. I was scolded repeatedly for not being within an arm's length of my daughter, who is already in swim squads and a proficient swimmer. It's baffling that the lifeguards were completely ill-equipped to handle any potential emergencies. No floating devices to throw, and they were even wearing sneakers – not exactly ready for a swift rescue. It seemed like the lifeguards were only there for decoration. To top it off, the pool was disgustingly dirty. Save yourself the frustration and go elsewhere for a safer, cleaner, and more enjoyable swim experience!"

Nila Ganesh 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have 3 of my children attending swimming lessons at Stanhope Leisure Centre and, I couldn't be any happier. Especially with the staff at the swim school front desk. Exceptional service from Christine and Natasha every time, pleasant, friendly and helpful going above and beyond. Keep up the good work, ladies.

Tracey Quinn 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: The swim centre was surprisingly good. There is a ramp to get in the pool and the water is warm. They have a kids play pool, a wave pool and fountain, a pool for learn to swim classes, a pool to do walking and gentle exercise as well as lanes to do laps. The change facilities are clean and there are disabled and baby change rooms as well. There is also a cafe to grab a snack or lunch. There is also a spa and suana for extra fee. In the centre is also a gym, a library and conference rooms. There is plenty of parking too and bus access. I was very impressed with the facilities.
