Life Time

Marquiee Marie??????? Seriously? Good for them for not requiring to see your papers 1939 German style. We are Americans, it's called trust. Now go watch more television Marie, it sounds like a fun life. Or you know, move to North Korea.

Didn’t fill welcome a man with a blue lives matter face mask was scary looking I felt he was trying to intimidate me and I was lied to about childcare called a liar to my face when I tried to use the service by the childcare manager. The younger staff were exceptional but the manger sucks big time .

I was a real fan of Lifetime Fitness and have an “All Access” membership based at the Old Orchard location since 2009.However, although they repeatedly told me my All Access membership would allow me to frequent the Northbrook location, when Northbrook opened, they reneged upon its actual opening, saying “we admit we told you that you would have access but have arbitrarily changed our minds after the fact in violation of your membership type!” WTH?? Who does that? If that’s not bad enough, they are holding to their pandemic limiting hours even though IL is in phase 5 of reopening. They charge more and yet have gone from 24/7 access pre-pandemic to closing at NINE PM on weekends, even though IL is fully open now!!!! And today, I was told to leave my cardio machine by an employee before the HGTV show I was watching that ends at 9 was even over! Charge less or provide the promised service LTF!! Oh —that’s right, Lifetime blatantly doesn’t keep it’s promises!

I have been coming as a guest with a member and I have been very impressed with this Life Time gym! I've always encountered friendly staff, clean locker rooms, and I love the pool! I plan to become a member myself now!

This gym is not friendly to families with kids. Kids at pool are yelled at at all times and families are threatened with police. Manager din't care about this concern. Young staff at the pool are just incompetent and not wearing masks next to elderly people. Not worth the money.....

I love Life Time. Been a member for two years now. However because of covid I have to start using the old Orchard location instead of the one I signed up for and I do not enjoy my experience here. The location is smaller in size compared to the Vernon Hill club But more traffic which makes it feel even more crowded and nobody practiced social distancing. There are kids who work out in a group Where one person does the workout and a group huddle around and chat. Just annoying and also potentially spreading covid...also, the swimming pool is constantly in use by swimming teams and only from 9-10pm is it open on a weeknight which is not enough time for someone with a job to workout, given that the gym is closed at 10pm.

If you have kids, this place is definitely worth it. Both the indoor and outdoor pools have water slides, and you can leave your children in the Kids Academy for up to 3 hours at no additional charge. The Academy has programs like Arts & Crafts and Gym Games. There are no comparables in the area to my knowledge. But the monthly rate is expensive. If you don't use the amenities ...The weight rooms are excellent. There are a ton of classes at no charge. I love the pilates options, and they've recently starting doing HIIT and Insanity classes. The rock wall is excellent. If I played basketball, I'd respect there was some serious ball being played. The cafe is reasonably priced and yummy.The staff and personal trainers are really nice in general. I've been there several years, so I wouldn't say it's always bright and sunny. However, I never felt uncomfortable dropping my kids off.Cleanliness is excellent overall. Unfortunately, pretty much everybody I know has lost a piece of electronic equipment at some point, so just be careful where you put things. If it disappears, it won't get turned in. The biggest locker room issue is all the dudes who hock loogies and blow snot bubbles. Gross. Apparently $110-200/month doesn't weed these people out. I doubt the women's locker room has the same problem. I go several days a week at different times, and I've never had a problem getting a locker.Two things bother me which brings my rating down to 4 stars. First, I've never belonged to a health club where people don't have to or want to share. In fact, apparently someone can be rotating on equipment and claim 2 or more apparatus as "theirs". Not allowing another person to work in would result in a confrontation, even a violent one, everywhere else I've ever been, period. Oh well, life on the North Shore. (Now, personal trainers holding equipment for trainees is totally acceptable.) Oh, and there's no racquet sports.Everything else is stellar. If you have young kids, you can't afford not to join - especially if you're single.

My favorite Health Club in the USA. Great outdoor & indoor pool. Love the variety of group classes and the weight selections. How about 24hour gym, what can I ask for more. Love the lifecafe for all my favorite meals and lifesaloon to get my hair colored. I cant thank enough the sales manager Andy for taking good care of me and my family all the time

My dad was a member since the club opened .This last year he has had some serious health problems. We jumped throughput hoops trying to put his membership on freeze and were able to finally have it held for 3 months since then they started charging the card again. With several additional calls we finally went in and cancled the membership but because we were past the 1st of the month by 2 days the card was charged again. This is a shame after years of membership.

Good luck swimming here. They rented out a pool to some team. I pay good money and in last 2 months was able to swim ONCE in lap pool, rest has been in baby pool. Not fair to paying members. Its really pathetic to book up the pool at prime hours. If you wanna rent it, do it at hours where paying members are not inconvenienced by this. Gonna try few more times but most likely will go elsewhere. Thanks but no thanks.
