Reviews of Glenfield Pool and Leisure Centre

R.

The gym feels more modern after recent refurbishment. The new state of the art equipment on the main level made it more appealing for gym goers. Love the new treadmills with virtual runs of cities around the world. Definitely worth a membership.

K.

I have been going to this place for at least the past 35 years. In fact I helped tile the baby pool with my father when I was about 10 years old. (recently been retiled). I now take my kids to swimming lessons every week and have done this for the past 4 to 5 years. My father still meets me up here most weeks. The tutors are excellent, have had several over the years. Great times, great memories.

C.

Meh you get what you pay for. Not the nicest public pool but gets the job done. Council tends to take their time with repairs on broken things. However the gym is very decent with nice equipment and a pleasant atmosphere. Close parking is hard at peak times (in the carpark outside the entrance) but the mall is just next door.

S.

Very big, can get busy.

L.

This has a fab gym, spread across two floors. Also nice to have two saunas (don't forget your towel). I've always found it to be clean here. Exercise timetable changes quite frequently which is good and bad. Evening Pilates is going which makes me sad. Olga who runs the Pilates class is fantastic. If you can go in the day there is lots of classes. Some evening ones but finish quite early. In the evening there is children's swimming lessons when I'm typically there, so not all the pool is available. Check their timetable if you want a quieter swim/hot soak. Can be hard to find parking in front but there is mall parking next door. Really close to Glenfield Road bus stop too.

E.

Great selection of gym equipments. Plenty of classes to choose from. Highly recommended!

S.

This place provide's everything I wanted. Gym, Fitness classes and the swimming pool with Aqua fitness classes as well, sauna and reasonable prices. Thank you!!

Y.

Hydro slides were closed in school holidays. Really disappointing. Otherwise friendly helpful staff and good life guards.

a.

Fitness classes are amazing all teachers have a good vibe and energy, specially I like Sprint with Todor and Body pump with Dael.

L.

Great swimming pools for kids and adults! Highly recommended.

g.

Over all great place, recommended to go early mornings when less people around.

S.

I would highly recommend the group fitness classes at Glenfield Pool and Leisure. In particular the pilates class. So popular that they almost need a bigger classroom to fit us all in. The class membership is fairly competitive. Costing me currently around $5 per class since I do a minimum of 3 classes per week. Staff are helpful and friendly. You do feel welcome there. The gym and pool are ok but I decided against joining up for those extras. The classes are enough and have enough range. The instructors are excellent and encouraging.

N.

Have been taking adult swim less at the swim school and it's been an amazing experience. I wanted to do it for years but felt embarrassed about taking lessons as an adult. The teachers are so kind and helpful and never make you feel bad about not being able to do things. I've made so much progress and I am confident about achieving my swim goals soon. Everyone in the class is warm and supportive and it's a great atmosphere. And such good value for money! If you are thinking about signing up, I cannot recommend them enough.

B.

Was my first time in a Gym, thoroughly enjoyed it, will be a regular thing from now on

T.

Julian the fitness instructor there is very helpful. He makes fitness fun and enjoyable. He is organised and knows a lot about different exercises. To be honest the whole entire Glenfield fitness team is great, all staff are helpful and kind. I really recommend doing your induction there and getting help from the Glenfield team. It is also the largest gym in the North Shore. Great gym and a wide range of equipments. Clean and well set out. Thank you for such an amazing experience!

D.

Great price for all the facilities, massive sauna with plenty of space, well equipped gym with plenty of double ups on popular equipment and friendly approachable staff. Could do with some better quality Barbells though, the current range are not very good for Deadlifts or Olympic Lifting and considering they have Bumper Plates and a platform they could get a Barbell to match.

Y.

After renovations place is great especially sauna and Jacuzzi

S.

Love this place, such a large expansive gym across multiple floors, Les Mills group fitness classes, and the big pool area with sauna and steam room and spa pool. It has absolutely everything and all memberships are under $20 per week!!

H.

Great pool and spa. Loved it.

a.

I signed up to the gym membership. My trainer was very thorough with my training. Fitness classes were so fun to join. I didn't feel out of place and Staff were great to deal with, I would go to the spa pool and sauna after a work out and rinse myself. It was very relaxing and rewarding :)

A.

Love this place but find the big pool is colder than other places. The little kiddy pool is really nice! Loads of people like the diving boards too!

D.

A great arvo out with the grandkids. They loved the dive pool and hydro. Spa nice for the adults. Parking good. Paid $7 a child for dive and hydro.

A.

The men's changing rooms / Toilets need a bit more of clean (although they are better condition than they were last year) Takapuna Pools Men's changing rooms are still much cleaner in comparison. Hopefully health and safety will visit Glenfield Pools often and be on top of this ;) Staff at the front counter seem friendly, so they get one star!

A.

Beautiful Clean Pool ! Great clean & tidy changeing room and family changing rooms. Lovely HOT Spa pool and Fabulous BIG Saunas - One warm & One Hot ! Great Steam room !! Plenty of Free parking and Friendly & Helpful staff !! And you can get one week FREE trial too !! Great Facility !! Thanks Glenfield Pools and Leisure! Youre AWESOME !!!

b.

Nice and clean. Friendly staff

I.

They provide a wide range of facilities including gym, squash, pool and yoga classes. Staff are friendly and welcoming too!

N.

Nice sauna (two rooms- a hot and a warm one) and steam room. Nice clean pool, but gets very busy in the evenings. Sometimes only two lanes are available to swim in, with private bookings and aqua classes in the others. Check lane availability online. Aqua fitness class looked fun and very well attended when we were there :)

N.

Good swimming class for kids

K.

It is a pity that most people do not shower before entering the pool. Worse, some jump straight into the pool with sweat dripping after sitting in the steam room or spa. As the day progresses you can taste more and more salt from sweat. It will be more HYGIENIC and SAVE MONEY for all of us as chemical and filtration costs will be less if people take a shower before entering the pool. Other than these, great facilities and great staff.

М.

Such a shame they've demolished the family spa. Considering kids pool being used for swimming lessons nearly most of the time, the little ones get frozen in the main pool (which only has one lane for all the kids) and stay under the showers forever - what a waste of water

T.

This is a great Leisure centre. The pool is great to take the family. It also has a childrens pool area, adult spa and steamer. The changing areas are very large. There shop is a great touch and the staff are very friendly. There is plenty of parking which is right next to the mall.

L.

Love the group fitness classes and instructors. Glenfield gym is very community like. If you're a Glenfield local, I'd recommend making this your gym 👍

H.

This pool is among the dirtiest in the entirety of Auckland. I have seen more things that should not be in the water than I care to admit. The Chlorine level, despite being so high it burns your eyes after mere minutes in the water, is seemingly only just enough to keep everyone from dying in the waters. But still, you go there enough, you begin to remember some familiar faces :)

R.

Facilities for little ones under 5years of age is limited and I found that the small pool was too crowded. It would be great to upgrade with a bigger facility for smaller kids. Otherwise there is a great area for older kids and nice spa pool for adults.

C.

I love it there. Great gym, awesome staff and facilities for a reasonable price. Yoga room need air conditioning or better ventilation though.

S.

Great People! Awesome facilities and classes! It’s my ‘happy’ place! 😁😁

N.

Me and my friends always come here!!! Very very friendly staff, a hydroslide, 3 diving boards (1, 3 and 5 metres high) and lots of space to swim in and enjoy with ur friends, including lanes. Theres also a spa and sauna for adults. Kids will love this place, cause its free and very low fee for sliding and jumping Best ever fun place

C.

Use to be good. I know this isn't the facilities fault but there is so many creepy old guys that use the spa and sauna, there needs to be a way to reduce harrassment. High theft rates during school holidays, had my jandals stolen twice in a week.

F.

Good local facility. Main pool not as warm as birkenhead though. And kids pool mostly closed for bookings and lessons when we've been.

U.

Great place to work out although some machines are quite old and arent usable when theyre being maintained. Never tried the pool but it always looks very crowded. Heard that the group classes are awesome. Has boxing and squash as well.

S.

Workers were friendly and helpful and the facilities were up to standards. Theres seperate cardio and strength training area so that's great if you like the privacy. Haven't tried the pool but it seems a little small for all those people.

N.

Glenfield Pool and Leisure Centre has a great variety of facilities and also provides multiple options if you'd like to become a member with them. The gym is clean and laid out well, but the group fitness classes are the best! They are frequent with a great variety (and Les Mills trainers!) so they offer great value for money- affordable, and overall has a great environment.

M.

First time visiting the pool ...just here in the Shore for a couple of weeks. Nana duty. So I went for my swim after having googled it. The pool was comfortably warm, the attenders very friendly and quite helpful. Friendly people swimming... Very disabled friendly.... I highly recommend the Glenfield Pool ...

J.

Long opening hours. Quite a large facility with enough lanes for the amount of people there at 9pm. Tiled floors felt clean and changing room benches were also clean. There are public showers for washing off and cubical showers in each gender’s changing room.

E.

Great gym, haven’t been to the pools yet but they look great too! Charles is a lovely trainer and man, enjoyed meeting and working with him.

Y.

The slow swimming lane was wide although it was pretty cold. The spa was hot and the sauna was not very hot.

J.

Everyday I visit this place to do my swimming, it's okay to visit, however most of the times there are many closures that are expected as there are injuries or something like that, There are no likes or hates on this review, it's 50/50 which makes it half half.

C.

Feels a bit dated and in need of an upgrade. Hydroslides are dangerous. I always hurt my head on the blue one. Diving pool is great though.

M.

Good facilties, good staff but needs better access in and out of pool area. Ventilation or extraction system would make the chlorine smell tolerable

M.

cheap prices for the pools adult $1.00 and kids free would definitely recommend to families they have 2 pools 1. a warm 32 degree kids pool and 2. massive 10 metre long lukewarm pool the depths 1.2 metres to 4 metre

S.

The pools themselves are pretty good. The changing rooms and showers could do with frequent cleaning. It's not pleasant to find pubes everywhere.

C.

Especially good since the renovations. It is incredibly spiteful that someone who has enough self-awareness to describe themselves as a 'germaphobe', then goes on to complain about the clientele's behaviour. NEWSFLASH: People are gross, don't go out in public.

J.

Kids pool is a little dull, perhaps some more floaties or tiring toss etc. Could be on offer. Would rather suggest Albany pool for kids

E.

an old establishment, it does not have adequate sun light in swimming area due to the fact it is half underground. But good enough for a casual work out. I quite like the new membership structures.

A.

Fine for kids. Fine for swimming. Fine for old men swimming in their undies, oggling the local mum's without remorse, and hocking/ spitting everywhere.

E.

Bit too crowded for me, takapuna is a lot less busy so I find that more enjoyable.

P.

Have been using the gym and sometimes the Pool and saunas for about four years. Great place great people value for money.

J.

Great place to swim & exercise. Reasonable prices.

S.

Really well worth getting a membership, gym, sauna and pools. Saunas and quite new and nice and clean, gym had all the equipment you need and the classes are amazing and will make you sweat.

T.

Love swimming here and enjoy the depth of the pool. I like the waterslides too. But the Chlorine is way too much! Even just sitting there burns your eyes!

S.

Pretty good pool for the cost, Loads of things to do there and many courses and classes available if you become a member (plus members can use other council centers too)

M.

Clean, not over crowded in the holidays. Enough lifeguards, spa, saunas main pool for swimming lengths and a section for play + a toddlers pool as well

R.

The pool is very good to swimming. Could be a better space for kids and for fun.

P.

Great staff at this council run facility. They've definitely upped their game in the last few years. I only use the pool facility and I can't complain.

E.

Kids pool is a hit! Temperature controlled water and fun experience..and its free!!

M.

The pool was great, staff always friendly, great facilities of hydroslides and diving pool. One of my favourite public facilities in North Shore. Come almost everyday.

M.

Great place for family and fun for swimming pools. Right next to the Glenfield mall and easily accessible.

E.

Great service for kids and fun to go to with friends. Nice little cozy cafe for when you need to refuel your energy

J.

The pool and spa is fantastic great people great place

D.

Staff is extremely friendly and the public pool is what you expect. Good for casual swimmers and divers alike

S.

A great set up for a daily routine of exercise, swimming or relaxation in the spa or sauna. They have facilities for all age groups

A.

Great friendly staff. Seems a little dated and not clear on times when you can just go and swim or relax rather than do lane swimming.

M.

With children or family you can enjoy if there is nothing booking others, if you have membership you can do another activity like gym

s.

Diving boards are great fun, and seems less people use the pools as a public toilet like Albany

K.

Loved that it's all electronic with the entry and your pool card and also tells you how many tickets you've got left.

P.

Pools are pretty nice. There are also slides that are safe but exhilirating at the same time. There is also a large gym there.

K.

There's a small pool for kids. And spa for adults as well. You can't use small pool during the swimming class, Check the website for swimming class schedule.

M.

Its a great leisure center. The gym, group fitness sessions, swimming pool and sauna are all up to the mark.

A.

Made some good changes to the gym and entrance which has been good, and pools are good for all ages. Parking can be tight. There is a cafe onsite also

S.

Good facilities however those stairs always kill me after exervise and sauna...dislike those steps so much!

J.

Good fun but showing is age a bit - and the main pool is heated for swimmers not kids

N.

Great place to take the kids on the weekend to burn some energy. Clean, good atmosphere, staff are helpful.

L.

Nice warm showers. Good vibe. Feel comfortable in my togs here! Main pool is quite cold though

M.

Love that it's open till 2200hrs during the week. Nothing like a relaxing swim and sauna at the end of my day. Great staff, thank you.

P.

Awesome staff. Facilities are a little dated. But it's got a great pool.

E.

It is a nice place for swimming, but it will have bigger pool that will be great.

M.

Steam room hasn't been repaired yet

F.

Rated 4 star because the showers are dirty. Would rate it 5 star if they cleaned it more frequently.

D.

They need to allow a bombing part. A lot of young and older people are wanting to bomb but are scared that they may get kicked out or punished.

P.

The best gym on the short by far, great staff, clean, currently up grading the weights room

That's a nice place to go for a swim to exercise whatever you like to do
