Busybodies Lifestyle + Wellness: Opinions

4.8/5 (52 Opinions)
Thao B McCoy 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Having visited numerous gyms in the past, I can confidently attest to Busybodies being among the top choices. A key factor in this distinction is their consistent utilization of high-quality Technogym workout equipment, always maintained in excellent condition. Despite the gym's more than 10 years of existence, I am pleasantly surprised by how well-preserved and immaculate it remains. The classes, particularly the Pilates sessions I have been attending for the last three weeks, are well-organized and offer a diverse range of exercises. Additionally, their user-friendly workout app simplifies the process of booking classes. Overall, my experience at Busybodies has been exceedingly positive, and I am eagerly looking forward to continuing my fitness journey there.

Positive experience: Great gym and love how it is near the station, however isn’t 24hrs and can’t get a key unless you’re over 18. This is annoying since there are so many people and have to wait for machines

J S 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Unfortunately had to cancel my membership today due to being stuffed around by debitsuccess (payment plan company). Josh made it all a super easy process and was very sweet. Soon after got a call from Craig (the gyms owner) apologising for it all. He really looks after his clients and I am so grateful. Not at all the gyms fault, everyone there is lovely and the facilities are great (Also love seeing the pups when I come in, definitely a bonus). I definitely will be back in the future once things settle

Fantastic experience: best gym going around. a bit pricy for what it is but can get a good work out in as the gym is pretty quite. staff are always friendly and helpful to. when my membership elasped they stil let me in for a good sesh and let me fix up the fee on my next sesh!

Erika Rezkallah 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Lovely atmosphere and staff. The gym caters to all fitness levels and membership is very reasonably priced.

Kieran Allen 6 years ago

Positive experience: Good prices. Usually not too busy except the after work rush. Not yet 5 star worthy because they have advertised themselves as a 24 hour gym but are not open 24 hours! The staff are really friendly and will always help you out if you need. Classes are included in the membership cost (currently $18 a week as of Dec 2018). Plus, I like that you can cancel at any time and suspend your membership if you are going away for a while.

Leilani Gibson 9 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great value for your money. The gym has a beautiful pool, spa, sauna, boxing area, hot yoga, all the typical gym equipment and classes. They also have a creche which is really handy for me. The ladies at the creche are lovely and take good care of my 3 month old son. There are no contracts. No fees to cancel your membership ( must provide 2 weeks Notice)or to put on hold.

Billy Ip 9 years ago

Positive experience: Great price and no need for any contracts and just need a 2 weeks notice to cancel anytime. Has gym, pool, spa, sauna, a great martial arts/boxing area and a range of different classes included with the membership. Some equipment might be a little old but overall the membership and what is included is great value and would be hard to find another gym that can beat it in terms of value for money.

Fantastic experience: Great gym really cheap friendly staff everything you need in a gym

Kim Flowers 9 years ago

Positive experience: One of the only Gyms in the surrounding areas that is open at 5:00am for those of us who commute and has a reasonable casual price. Pool, sauna, hot yoga, group classes, cafe and the usual gym gear. Locally owned (non-chain) store gym in a converted squash courts building. A few of the staff aren't terribly friendly but they might not be morning people. Only thing that really irritates me is that they don't have disinfection spray nearby equipment for after single sessions. I have seen them clean at night but it would be good to have it for once you've finished on the cardio equipment for the next person.
