Norfolk Fitness Centre - Simcoe, Ontario

Cheap, but you get what you pay for. They sell you on the features, but the pools shut down half the time. The sauna is usually broken, and the hot tub is now nonexistent. They dont offer any classes, and equipment is becoming very out of date. But again it is affordable.

Love this gym, they have everything you need including the old school equipment you don't see at commercials gym. Wasn't too busy in the morning, highly recommended gym.

I'm from Calgary, just in town for work but I will say this place has 5 star staff, super friendly and helpful, and keep the place as clean as possible, even greet me by name when I come in and make me feel at home. But a critique is that the membership price is far too high for the outdated quality of equipment and hours of operation. Friday/Weekend hours are too short, especially if you have a busy schedule. But if you just need to get a quick lift in and go home, it's one of the only places nearby to do it, so fair play.

No hot tub, run down, false advertisement. Well maybe you should remove it from your photo the hot tub pic

Overpriced, small town charm. For 5x the cost of a gym in the city, you can have all the same amenities. They know there aren't many options in simcoe, and take advantage of that. They do offer outdated racquetball courts. A steam room that has been out of order for years. A hot tub in the same condition and not usable. Once in a while the sauna works. And yet, the price stays the same, if not climbs. So if you are stuck, I can't blame you for going here. If you have any other options, save your money.

the staff are great and the place is kept very cleand, that’s the only reason they’re getting 2 stars. showers are luke warm at best with timer valves lasting 20 seconds at most, machines are out dated but the duct tape on the cushions and lack of indicators on the weights makes that obvious, parking can either be good or chaotic as it’s not lined out. Steam room has been out of order forever with no intent to have it fixed. No ‘referral’ or ‘bring a friend’ offers available which is pretty standard for most places at this point and if you want to take part in their morning classes, it’s extra. But the worst part is that they’re charging $75/month for a membership, which would be fine if everything worked as it should. However, after hearing the same complaints from other members I have to say it’s complete thievery . After going here for a year I can say that I’m ONLY going here because of the lack of options in my area with all the extras (pool/sauna/squash court) if you’re looking for a well priced, basic gym, this is NOT it. It’s pretty disgusting how much the gym makes and how little goes back into the gym itself

The gym has had its "upgrades" but this review is long overdue. I find it extremely frustrating that you are charging $75 for outdated rusted equipment. The sauna is also working 50 percent of the time.

Moving on to your hours of operation on the weekend where MOST PEOPLE have off. Please tell me why is it that your earliest open time is 8:00 am on Saturday and you close at 3:00pm on Sundays? If you are charging $75.00 I would consider staying open longer on weekends.

Lastly, the elderly men here are absolutely vile and unhinged. I understand it's been centuries since you've seen a young women but the level inappropriate staring and commentary that goes on is beyond uncomfortable.

I’ve been coming to this gym for 9 months now, if I could give 6 stars I would! The staff here are very respectful and welcoming. The people there are also very friendly, I’ve never had a bad experience while working out. I’ve gotten advice for working out and even advice for life from the people in there. I couldn’t surround myself with a better crowd.The overall feel of the gym is very friendly and was a great way to start my fitness journey, I’ve been to many gyms since I started here but nothing has quite felt the same. This gym has helped me overcome obstacles in my life I never imagined would be possible. I would recommend this gym over any other around this area, it’s genuinely the best gym you’ll find.
