I've been a member of the Pleasance for 7 years and I can say, having been to other gyms across Edinburgh, that it is by far the best in the city. The Pleasance has whatever you need: heavy weights, archery, shooting, pilates, circuits, rock climbing, yoga, martial arts; you name, they'll have it. The sheer scale of what they have to offer is matched only by their expert physio team who are considerate and informative in whatever injuries you have. Their changing rooms are well equipped with showers and saunas, and have a high standard of cleanliness. Some minor points: -It would be great if the Pleasance was open later. The UoE have taken on board this idea within the last few years, and extended hours from 8 to 10pm on weekdays, but an 11 or even 12pm finish would be great especially given the erratic time people finish work at. -It would also be nice if the reception had such a thing as manners, given their consistent impoliteness. Most of the time I visit I feel like they don't want people in with the way they treat customers. -The gym can get very busy, especially after 5pm. This is the drawback of being one of the best gyms in the city.
One of the best gyms of the country. It has a LOT of machines and even when it is full, one can still find a spot to do one's own exercises. The gym also offers Squash courts for rent as well as an array of equipment. Also has a nice climbing venue and a fairly decent multi-purpose hall. The classes are also really nice and the bathrooms are always clean.
Best gym ever. Extensive cardio equipment. Multiple free weight rooms. Pool, squash courts, climbing wall and archery range. Daily organised classes. Very reasonably priced for students and staff, as well as outside members.
Lot of cardio equipments so the wait time is less but make sure to avoid going at 5/6pm. Renting a swish court is a little expensive. Would definitely recommend it given that there are many floors at the gym and a lot of options
Fantastic facilities and lots of sports clubs, although most are only available to Edinburgh University students. Membership available to all, just not the sports clubs and the gym facilities are fantastic. Parking can be difficult and it is by permit only in the car park, but there is plenty of metered parking nearby!
