Equinox Sports Club Los Angeles

Wonderful desk .check in and no problem. Got service at spa,amazing experience, wow 👌. Don't understand why they would have any bad feelings for this place. Beautiful and the employees are very kind and nice. I don't understand why I have seen bad reviews of yhis club? …

Great gym, best in the area IMO for diversity of equipment and facilities. Upstairs (rooftop) turf and bars w/ 40yd dash and outdoor equipment, multi lane pool, basketball court, squash courts, all the studios you could ask for, jacuzzis, steam room, sauna. Can’t think of anything else I’d need any many more machines than most other gyms. Yes you pay for what you get- but if you can afford it and you’re serious about fitness & want a range beyond just basic weights and presses, it is worth the price. Also very clean in my experience with friendly staff.

As one of the most expensive gym options, this location and Equinox more broadly leave much to be desired;- Extremely busy. As COVID restrictions have started to lift in the region, the after work crowds have grown substantially. Because of this, many of the other amenities that are sold to new joiners are almost unusable. Expect to wait at every machine/bench/rack in the weight room. You will have to adjust your workout in order to leave within 1.5 hours. The basketball court is consistently occupied by pickup games that cover the entire gym; no room for shoot around, if you want to play it will take a couple games. Sauna is always full.- Poor class programming. Limited classes that often occur during the middle of the work day. No options for evening classes. In my experience, the classes themselves are disorganized and non-motivating. As an example, during one class I attended, the instructor showed up late, recognized me from a previous session, and asked me to setup the equipment on their behalf, while facilitating the warmup for other class members. With the emphasis on the new Equinox+ platform, focus on programming, and the restrictions involved in booking classes, the product needs to be better. The programming is especially limited for HIIT and weight training focused classes.- Pay for parking. Every time you drive to the gym, you will need to pay for street parking ($/hour up to 2 hours) or valet ($3 flat up to 3 hours). There is no parking reimbursement. Other (significantly cheaper) gyms in the West LA area offer parking reimbursement.- There are no food or beverage options in the gym. However, there is a very large, completely desolate, kitchen space in the entryway of the gym. Equinox stopped paying their outside vendor at the beginning of COVID and have made no effort to replace that service or find an alternative for gym goers.- The gym contract is extremely restrictive. If you are moving within the 1st year of your contract, you cannot terminate the contract unless your new location is outside 25 miles from the nearest Equinox location (for reference, this range covers the entire greater LA metropolitan area and, probably, most metro areas in the USA). Furthermore, the price you agreed upon in the contract is not fixed. If you move to a higher price region, not only must you transfer your membership but your dues will also increase accordingly. If you wish to cancel for medical reasons, you must have a doctor’s note proving you’re unfit for the gym for at least 6 months. Be aware, the salesmen are instructed to underplay the restrictions here when you are signing up.

Horrible management, they steal from you and make you beg for a refund. They have no idea what they are doing, they've owed me over $1100 for a while now, and they keep having new reasons why it's delayed. Honestly this is the Anna Delvey of gyms. Cheronka Townsend is an unprofessional, classless person, who, when she told me my refund would be delayed by another two weeks, started laughing. Absolute dumpster of a human being.

I used to work in the gym. Their machinery was very clean and very well organized. I thanked the coach who helped me to get a fit body. He's showing me the best ways to work out.

Best secret ever, Bball court is really nice

This gym makes me feel good in myself again and they're just doing their job of teaching newbies, so they're going to give you advice on how to build confidence. The gym is sterile and has various types of machines used for workouts. But if you're looking to go here, I promise you're going to be their happy customers.

The new manangement team and the Group Fitness Director are really awesome. The facility overall is the 'cleanest' and the staff truly tries to meet membersrequests.!!!

Management is terrible, with very poor quality of service, they care lot about your money so watch out, they're always pushing to sell something and if you don't buy it the staff becomes rude.

I have been a member of this club since 2006 and it has enabled me to stay healthy and increase my flexibility and strength. There is a wide variety of classes which are taught by experienced instructors who always modify for those that need it (like me!) There is an enormous amount of equipment and the locker room is well maintained. I love getting facials and massages at the SPA. It's like going to a country club!
