Planet Fitness: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Really nice modern gym. Also with super helpful and friendly staff which makes it great :)
Thanks for leaving a review Matt!
Fantastic experience: Great range of machines, very clean too.
Thanks for the great review Trudy!
Negative experience: Water fountains never work, temperature inside the gym is unbearable like working out in a hot box in areas. Machines need to be reupholstered, can’t use them without it hurting and scratching you. This gym is really going down hill. Would not recommend to anyone.
Hi there! We're saddened to hear of your disappointing experience, and we'd like to look into the issue further. Could you please email us directly at your earliest convenience at: [email protected] Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Incorrectly charged $20 for a session for an extra person on black card. The lady behind the counter credited back my account. Good customer service.
Hi Chris, thanks for the great review! We are glad that you were able to get that sorted quickly and easily!
Fantastic experience: Best value for money. Brand new gym equipment and staff are very friendly.
Negative experience: Was once a fervent club member of planet fitness but the recent experience with the membership was horrendous to say the least. After requesting to cancel the membership , I was advised it was cancelled to only be charged later on . Subsequently I am unable to get the fee I was charged due to their mistake and am only faced with inconsistent emails with lies. I would advise caution when signing up and trying to quit this gym. Edit: I have replied to the email provided with the exact events occurring 24/10/24, I have yet to receive any reply. It would seem the response would just be their social team trying to upkeep reviews rather than actually being helpful. Will update this comment if i ever do.

Fantastic experience: Great facilities, helpful staff
Thank you for the 5-star review, Michael!
Positive experience: Kinda good, but don't have scale scale
Negative experience: I signed up before the place even opened and was very happy with it up until this year. In the past 6 months it has gone extremely downhill, the water fountain hasn’t worked for months and the whole place smells like urine. There’s always multiple staff members standing around the front desk when they could be cleaning the filthy toilets and refilling the empty soap dispensers. The previous manager and cleaners were awesome but now there seems to be a never-ending revolving door of employee turnover. Only reason I still go to this gym is because it’s only $5 a week but I guess you get what you pay for.
Hi Gabby! We never want our members to have a less than stellar experience at our Planet. If you haven't done so already, please reach out directly to your local club manager. They will be the best point of contact to address any issues with the cleanliness of our facility. We appreciate your time and feedback.
Negative experience: I've been a member since it opened and it's terribly managed. The water cooler is broken more often than not. The airconditioning has been broken for months. The locker rooms stink of piss because the toilets are disgusting and urinals often blocked. The equipment is mostly well maintained albeit lacking in some areas but that's Planet fitness. Honestly Mundingburra Planet Fitness is so much nicer. The only reason I'm still a member is it's conveniently close and cheap.
Hi there. We never want our visitors to have a less than stellar experience at our Planet. Our team is working hard to resolve these issues as soon as possible!

Fantastic experience: Wonderful staff, wonderful facility. Price is perfect! Don't change a thing!
Hi Chris, thank you so much for taking the time out to leave a review! We are glad to hear you are loving Planet Fitness Thuringowa
Negative experience: Air con is being purposefully turned OFF. Its so humid inside there now. Ive been going there for 1 year and it was great, It use to be cold. I asked the manager and he lied to my face saying the air con was on and that the reason its humid inside the gym is because its hot outside... lol Pretty insulting when they lie so obviously and expect u to swallow it. Clearly trying to pocket some extra money at the expense of the people going there. Ill start looking for a new gym tommor

Fantastic experience: Great service atmosphere
Thank you for the 5-star review!
Negative experience: I have been a member for over a year, tired of waiting for use of machines, due to members on their mobile phones. Not to mention compulsory wiping of gym equipment after use by some members members, hey there is a new covid strain, sanitise after using equipent, looking at another gym.
Hi, Brenda. We never want our members to have a less than stellar experience at Planet Fitness. We'd appreciate it if you could take the time to reach out to our staff or management team, or email [email protected] at your earliest convenience, so your concerns can be addressed as soon as possible. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: This gym is really well appointed and always clean. Good locker room facilities and the black card spa is worth the extra fee. Also the membership is transparent pricing and really good value. Good range of equipment!
We thank you for your kind feedback, Siobhan! We love to hear how much our members enjoy our Planet, and we always appreciate a five-star review!
Negative experience: gunna be honest the staff at night lowkey arent very good at being welcoming but uhh other than that. the gym rocks!!!
Hi, Angel! We are sad to hear of your experience, as it does not sound like the level of customer service that we strive for. On your next visit please take a moment to speak with the club manager, so they may address your concerns further.
Fantastic experience: Great Nook
Negative experience: The gym is good, but the air conditioning doesn't work most of the time. I'm cancelling my membership this week.
Fantastic experience: Mmm
Fantastic experience: Awesome place
Positive experience: It was alright, I didn't have a membership, but my nephew did, and what was included in it is really good, considering how cheap membership is. My issue with the place is that they sting you $20 a session, If you don't have a membership. And the fact that they only have Smith machines to be able to do bench press.
Negative experience: I joined during the "No annual fee" promotion. However, 2 days ago I was charged the annual fee anyway ($40). When I called I was given an apology and was told I would be refunded eventually, likely in a few weeks. I know that the person I spoke with was not at fault but when a business overdraws my bank account due to an error in their system I expect the situation to be resolved immediately or to be given some kind of compensation.
Negative experience: 4 months to cancel 1 membership. No one know what they are doing. 4 months extra I had to pay. Plus if you look back at your payments they aren't the same, they change them. So you pay more. 1 star is to many.
Fantastic experience: Boa
Fantastic experience: Great non judgemental place to get fitter in your own time. No matter what size or shape you are
Positive experience: I really love this gym I have been a member since its inception...but lately have noticed little things have been ignored...e.g. NO soap in the ladies washrooms for nearly 2 weeks!...and last week NO paper towel to wipe down your equipment...pretty basic stuff...I am worried the attention is NOW focussed on the new Gym at Rising Sun shops? I hope not...I love it here and would never leave..but hey guys don't forget about your core members.
Negative experience: This place is ridiculous , most of the floorspace is taken up by cardio machines , treadmills bikes etc etc , with not even 1 20th of them being used , the weight machines they have are randomly put around the edges , they look like flash machines but most of them are not ergonomic and not comfortable to use , they just look new . No free bench racks which is the absolute foundation of upper body strength and core stability , instead they have a number of smith machines which are not good for your joints , maybe useful for someone who's disabled perhaps . This place is a waste of time , if your looking for a real gym don't go to planet fitness , there's many gyms in Townsville that are lightyears ahead of planet fitness .
Fantastic experience: Great place to get into working out.
Fantastic experience: Always clean with modern gear. Great shower pressure.
Negative experience: No lock-in contract, I paid upfront costs. And only went for 1 week. Now saying I owe $63.80.
Positive experience: Good
Fantastic experience: Fantastic place to workout. Friendly staff, lots of equipment, no lock in contract with a great price.
Negative experience: Nevir been there
We never want our visitors or members to have a less than stellar experience at our Planet. We'd appreciate it if you could take the time to reach out to our staff or management team so your concerns can be addressed accordingly. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Brilliant. So much equipment! And the relax room is fantastic
Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere, the team are always friendly, and it’s always kept to a good standard of cleanliness.
Fantastic experience: Love love love this gym great equipment wonderful people.
Negative experience: it's $12 per fortnight + 1 hidden fee of $51 NOT $5 per week
Negative experience: One of the worst gyms I have ever went to. This gym is more suitable for cheap people that just started the fitness journey. Not really my style I'm not gonna be quite like a mouse when I'm lifting heavy weight.
Fantastic experience: Amazing friendly staff and great atmosphere
Fantastic experience: Great location, good staff, clean, tidy, lots of extras and a good price. What more could you ask for. Looking forward to 2 locations in townsville!
Fantastic experience: THURINGOWA PF IS GOOD HAS EVERYTHING I NEED BUT CAN GET BUSY DURING THE ARVOS
Fantastic experience: Update: can be difficult to get in for the program development appts if you can only make it after hours. Took only a week or two to work out when the busy times were. The crowd estimates on the app are wholly inaccurate. ≈≈≈ I've been going to Planet Fitness Thuringowa for a couple of months now and enjoying doing my own thing, but am hoping to make it to a Program Design session soon and possibly a class of two. I prefer to go during the quieter times, but even when it's busy, there has been equipment available. I've got the black card membership so can take a friend which is great for motivation. The hydromassage is pretty good too. You have to time your visits if you want the spa area though, as it's only open when the front is staffed. Same for using lockers. Sometimes the bathroom/toilet area can be a bit messy. Says more about some of the patrons than the staff doing the cleaning though.
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff and great amenities. Modern and well kept equipment. Very hygienic. A great variety of equipment to choose from in a safe atmosphere.
Fantastic experience: Love PF!!! Everything you need in one spot to make you feel good avout yourself! Ive tried it all and must say always walk away feeling awesome. Staff are friendly too
Fantastic experience: Awesome staff
Positive experience: Decent size place with plenty of cardio machines. Good value for people looking to keep fit and/or try out a gym
Positive experience: Very good. Still see a few collect all the equipment they need next to a bench and there exercising on a machine. Makes lack of equipment at times.
Fantastic experience: Great Service. Reasonable price. Good gym equipment and variety. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Friendly helpful staff
Fantastic experience: Very well designed, equipped and staffed gym. Could do with more towel hangers in the showers and changing rooms but that is not enough to lose a star.
Fantastic experience: First visit, was impressed, joined up and going regularly
Positive experience: Great place for beginners. Would love to give 5 stars, but the number of people sitting on their phones on the equipment makes it difficult to train. You dont need 10 minutes' rest between sets.
Fantastic experience: Best gym ever
Positive experience: I recommend Planet Fitness in Townsville! The weekly payment is reasonable, providing good value for the high-quality services offered. The equipment is top-notch and always well-maintained, ensuring a great workout experience. Additionally, the staff is friendly, professional, and always ready to assist with any needs. And I like the massage chairs and hydrobed at the end of my exercise. Overall, it's an excellent gym that offers great value for your money.
We are so happy you're enjoying your experience with us. If there's anything we can do to make your PF experience even better, please give our front desk a ring or stop by to speak with a member of our team!
Negative experience: Not member anymore but when I was there they have great facility for everyone. Just sucks that they don't do creche rest why I left. I rang up how to cancel my member and service was terrible like the lady made me feel like bad person and just said come into the gym to cancel your membership. Coming in to do so as easy and hassle free thankfully.
Fantastic experience: Love the atmosphere in this place
Negative experience: Worst gym ever, I have been trying to cancel my gym membership since March but they never let me.
Fantastic experience: Clean, friendly and so much room. A huge amount of machines and choices.
Fantastic experience: Was here for almost a year. Staff and other members were always nice, and the gym was always clean. Would stay if I wasn't moving to the other side of town.
Fantastic experience: The black card membership is so worth it! Access to everything 24/7, water massage beds, endless amounts of equipment including a 30min circuit workout!! 100% recommend this gym over any others in Townsville.
Fantastic experience: It's awesome. Am now cancelling other gym membership and jumping across to PF.
Positive experience: Good service, reasonable rates and extremely clean always.
Positive experience: First class to come
Fantastic experience: Lots of machines and people seam freinly
Fantastic experience: A truely free judgement gym, every one is friendly especially the staff.
Negative experience: This rating is purely based on how difficult it is to cancel a membership if you're not able to do it in person. I had to leave town abruptly and Planet Fitness request that you send a letter via post to cancel.... its 2022, no reason it can't be done via email or phone. I won't be rejoining....
Fantastic experience: I love this fitness centre, because the staff are friendly but don't harass you like in some other places. Its a great place to work out and also relax.
Fantastic experience: Very rewarding ,massage chair, hydro bed ,all that I need I have here,lovely staff,
Fantastic experience: Great gym. Always clean. Lots of equiptment. Plenty of lockers and the bathrooms are nice. Very affordable membership, easy parking out front. Definitely one of my favourite gyms I’ve been to.

Positive experience: Great gym. Friendly and helpful staff. Good amenities.
Fantastic experience: Love it
Fantastic experience: Clean and convenient
Fantastic experience: Such a diverse and inclusive non judgement environment, I feel incredibly safe here. A great array of equipment and machines. The black card membership is absolutely worth it and has so many benifits. Staff are always helpful and kind. Amenities are always clean and tidy and staff are regularly checking on them. Did I mention the female amenities have hair straighteners and blow dryers available? Plenty of lockers with inbuilt phone charging ports. The hydro beds are incredible, I've never woken up the next day sore after using the hydro bed after a workout. An all round relaxed atmosphere with no pressure or expectations. Such an amazing gym.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic environment! Very positive and friendly staff too
Fantastic experience: It's the cheapest and good gym in the Townsville.
Fantastic experience: the staff are so lovely, they place is always super clean. it’s a really good environment to be in, i love it!
Fantastic experience: Very clean, organised and reasonable price
Positive experience: New opening, new equipment, new facilities including hydro massage, massage chair, fitness sessions, huge ample space and various excercise segments and areas makes it a best place for fitness and daily excerxise.
