Re-Creation Health Club Brighton East

Fantastic experience: Great gym.

Fantastic experience: Awesome place. Has a great variety of gym equipment, vibragym (dont see this often) massage chairs to recover and just to relax.

Negative experience: A nice one

Fantastic experience: Great gym members..friendly bunch

Fantastic experience: What a great team here at Brighton East. Everyone is so friendly and nothing is every too much trouble. During Covid Re-creation Brighton East streamed and shared fee exercise classes with their team of instructors and encouraged members to share with family and friends. This was such an uplifting experience and healthy attitude. It was great to see the instructors performing live in their homes and in their outdoor verandas. Love the Zumba classes here and at Hampton. Looking forward to coming in to see you all again soon.

Fantastic experience: best reformer pilates and the friendliest instructors highly reccommend!

Positive experience: You get what you pay for

Negative experience: Attended this gym for many years mostly due to convenience. I left at the beginning of the year as I had seen a steady decline in the gyms quality. The machinery was very old and poorly up kept, and the staff had poor customer service. I now pay the same amount for a much better gym in the area. I would not recommend Re-creation, spend your money elsewhere.

Positive experience: A lot of equipment, but everything is very aged, worn down and needs TLC.

Fantastic experience: Free car parking underneath. Lots of equipment and hot showers. You can relax in the lounges or massage chairs after your workout.

Fantastic experience: Very well equipped gym. Staff very welcoming when walking in. Clean and sanitized. Feels great to be back.

Fantastic experience: Terrific gym and easy location. Massage chairs & a sauna. Terrific customer service. Love it!!!

Fantastic experience: The best gym. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. The price is amazing and they have so much equipment so you don't have to wait around.

Fantastic experience: Great gym for all ages

Negative experience: Very rude staff

Fantastic experience: Great sweat!

Negative experience: The gyms equipment is outdated (but its a cheap membership so thats what you get) but the girls at reception have got to be the worst at customer service, .they're rude, they literally say "they dont care" and not at all solution focused... shame for the owner...these girls are the face of the business...

Negative experience: Member for around 6 years. Mostly because I'm too lazy to shop around :) Pros: - Lots of space - Not busy on weekends - There are a few massage chairs for those of you who go to gym to sit in the massage chairs. Can't comment on the quality because I never used one of these. Cons: - Too expensive to begin with plus raising fees without proper notice - Old equipment that is not being properly maintained - On hot days the AC is not coping (or gym is saving electricity bills) and it gets very hot inside

Negative experience: All they care about is making money. This gym has no idea how to retain loyal customer and all they want to do is charge and or increase their fee. They have charged me ridiculous dishonour fee of 14.80 and because I'v now moved to a month to month contract I have to pay a $20 dollar activation fee every time if my contract runs out. Gonna stick to Anytime fitness next door. Much better \ cleaner facility and im sure they will look after their customers. I have asked the manager to waived the $20 charge but said "NO" . Sad as i have been a customer over a year .So much for being a regular .

Negative experience: Dodgy business. This gym increased the fee after we signed the contract without any information about the price increase even after we asked for the reason for several time , all they said was there’s a term in the contract that allows them to increase the fee . However, at the time they increased our fees they lowered the advertised fee for new members. All it seems to me is that they are using low price (which is actually not that low compared with other gyms) to trick new members in and secretly increase the fee charged without telling members who think they are being charged the fee written on contract until they check their bank statement.

Fantastic experience: What an amazing gym! It's not busy, it's packed with everything you need, the classes are really good and not crowded, it has got massage chairs, tea and coffee, sauna ... And it's cheap! Perfect

Fantastic experience: Awesome place to hang out with mates and get gains

Positive experience: Ah East Brighton, what an interesting place you are. I have enjoyed lifting weights, but I have not enjoyed the staff. I believe that a conspiracy is at place, whereby young people have agreed not to actually serve the people, but to just get paid for doing the bare minimum. It's as if they just gave jobs to their mates, imagine! I'm not entirely sure, but I do know that there are better gyms for the money you pay. Farewell, kind people of East Brighton, may your gains be true and plentiful.

Positive experience: Lots of great facilities. Loved their massage chairs. A few issues though. It is a big gym so getting up and down the stairs, parking, etc. do add a bit of time. The training area is clean but the ambience is pretty ordinary. I probably favour a more community type gym and this one was a bit alienating. The classes vary in quality and although some are good, the high number of people in a class mean that as an individual one is ignored.

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym, with fantastic instructors

Fantastic experience: Great gym!! Wide variety of classes. I'm really enjoying my membership

Positive experience: Signed up with this gym after I moved nearby, price is reasonable, they have everything and every equipment for training especially The multipurpose room have different size boxing bags I like very much to train karate.

Positive experience: Friendly staff, reasonable rates, underground car parking a major plus, overall gym looking a bit tired and most of the weights machines need some TLC or replacing

Negative experience: Equipment is very old and run down. There are so many better alternatives around the area that are actually cheaper. Terrible customer service also

Fantastic experience: Love it

Positive experience: Quit a few of the machines and equipment is pretty tired or doesn't work properly

Positive experience: Wide range of equipment, big space, professional trainers if required and many motivated fellow clients

Positive experience: Good balance between price and customer service. Is it perfect? No. But it is my preferred gym because the price point is good and it has all you need to do your workout without any unnecessary extras you don't want to pay for.

Negative experience: The equipment is great. However, the customer service need to be improved.

Fantastic experience: Good value, large, open 24/7. I'm a member there.

Positive experience: 24/7 100+ fitness classes per week
