I was a member for a while but the facilities didn't live up to expectations especially considering the membership price and constant increases. The steam room was often out of order or dirty. Once I saw that someone had stuck their chewing gum on the walls in there. There was a hole in the ceiling above the showers for a while and the changing rooms felt quite unhygienic. The monthly fees suggest luxury but unfortunately it is far from that. Parking is a nightmare. The gym upstairs has black mold on the walls by the cross training machines.I did like however that when I was swimming in the evenings, the pool was quite empty. The staff are also really helpful and friendly.

Great place but a let down for swimmers as they seem to pack in every day with family swims and kids lessons to earn. More. This wasn?t the case years ago. You end up having one slim lane between loads of people. Thats exactly why i chose a club gym over a council run one. For good pool access. Everything else is fine but its just too much. Only quiet times are way before work and way after.

I had a free pass for 7 days, was super excited as i have visited the Nuffield in Abridge. I am a member of a budget gym and was considering upping my £20 a month fee for something more.I turned up and the staff wasn't very welcoming, was expecting a hard sell or even a quick show around to show me where everything was. None of any of that! Swimming pool looked like it was subbed out to swimming lessons leaving a tiny lane for members to swim in. Went upstairs and was in actual shock at how small and dirty the gym was. The lack of equipment was appalling, how they warrant charging over £80 per month I will never know. Hats off for how they managed to get any members at all for that price! I wouldn't actually go again if they paid me £80 a month.

The parking is out of control, massive 4x4s lumped all over the curbs and in disabled spaces. The gym is nice however and staff are lovely, if the changing rooms and showers were updated it'd go a long way.

I would avoid signing up to this gym. Not worth it - feels basic. Doesn't feel clean.

Complete lack of any proper investment for several years now, cardio equipment is outdated and shabby, breaks down often, and it generally takes between a month or two (or more) to get anything fixed. Shower areas particularly grubby. Must be the worst, and most expensive, gym in Hertford.

Changing rooms really need an upgrade. Every shower broken. When you visit in the evening especially bins are overflowing and needs a good clean by that point. Air con units covered in dust etc. Wouldn't become full time member because of this. Pool is actually ok but it doesn't have the feel of premium price gym.

Offers good facilities but is now incredibly tired with large swathes of various equipment often out of order.

I have been a member of this gym for a year. Everyone is very friendly, the gym is very spacious and offers a lot of various equipment. Georgina has been my personal trainer for almost a year now and training with her is incredible. I have had personal training many times before in my life, but never have I felt so comfortable, safe, and none of my previous personal trainers have been even close to how friendly, professional and thoughtful Georgina is. I would recommend both the gym and Georgina as a personal trainer.

Took them almost 5 weeks to get back to me regarding a cleaning job I'd applied for in Hertford. Those seeking work - AVOID.

Terrible pool/spa the steam room had no steam and smelled like urine, the pool was tiny and full and the sauna was a tiny room also full up. Old out dated in 2023 they have a lot of work to do to catch up with other gyms

A nice gym; however there seems to be an increase in young kids 13-16 attending and messing around a lot. Also should implement a ban of phones when using machines as quite often find yourself waiting 10 minutes to use a machine where someone is just sitting on it using their phone and not actually exercising.

Been coming here for five years now and unfortunately the quality has dropped over this period. Constant issues with the boiler and air con, very few of a new equipment, cancelled sky sports... Hoping for an improvement

This centre has great cardio, sauna and pool facilities. The staff and trainers are super friendly and there is a really nice atmosphere here.However the gym side is of sub-standard quality. This Nuffield seems extremely undeveloped and underfunded when compared to other nearby centres. The equipment is quite old and very limited. The gym is quite small on space and therefore basic. It can be a pain to train here when busy.The centre is great for overall ?fitness? however I?d expect a little more considering the prices and when comparing to other Nuffield centres (let alone other gyms in the area).
