  Gym’s not that big compared to Clontarf and Leopardstown, but it feels homey to me and I feel comfortable here training. Coming here during off peak times means more focus with your training. Downside is they don’t have big functional area where you can do prowler and do some strength training. Receptionists are very good, they are polite and say hello and goodbye compared to other clubs. Some of them too chats with the members which is good. The pool is relaxing, it’s salt water. And they have the best massage therapist here named Edward during Thursday and Saturday.

  499€ just signing fee for second class gym!? Not speaking about horrible attitude of staff. I received free trial for 4 days from friend, I was in that gym before under different ownership but never been with Westwood gyms, I told that to the staf who was showing me around. After the tour he tried to push me to sign their ridiculous contract, which I didn't really want so he switched, that he unfortunately can't let me in as I was in gym before!?! Even if I wanted to sign up, his attitude made sure I would never do so!

  Terrible experience - make sure you know what you are getting yourself into before signing anything. Although it brands itself as a "luxury gym", be prepared to deal with rude and clueless management and appalling customer service and facilities once you have committed to your 75 euro per month membership. Health and safety is non-existent - uber slippery floors at (wet) changing room and swimming pool access. No one to supervise or advise on how to use the machines correctly. Staff doesn't know how to use machines that can actually damage someone for life - but it's ok, because first thing that happens when you set foot there is to be coerced into sign a waiver of liability in case of accidents - I guess that is cheaper than getting rubber flooring in a wet pool area. Hot showers are only hot for 1-2 minutes, after that they go cold. Paperwork is a trap - receptionist will stop you several times asking for paperwork you submitted months ago - a complete mess. They will double-charge you via direct debit and good luck to you trying to get your money back - that will take a LOT of patience. Appalling bike parking and indeed no support for cyclists at all - a shame, considering they claim to promote an active lifestyle. The most basic SPA services are terrible, and even the SPA staff says they go elsewhere when they want to have those services done on themselves.

  This used to be my gym while in Dublin. Super attentive staff, great space, many machines and a great spa with salty water. I'd sign up Again if I were back in Dublin.
