CityFitness Mt Wellington

Not busy during working hours, didn't have to wait to use machines, and used the sled push. Parking was easy to find. The changing room and bathroom area are enormous. They have a HITT room, cycling room, and group fitness room. The Hitt room is unlocked, so you can follow the screen and do the workouts in your own time.

Huge value for money gym. Parking was difficult but have never had a problem since they expanded the carpark recently. At 6:30pm it's 80-90% capacity and you will experience waiting and asking if people are finished. Unfortunately there are those who unashamedly use two equipment during these times, or chat away while you wait, or check their socials ‍

I have been a member of City Fitness since I moved to New Zealand and had to temporarily leave for a year due to my pregnancy. During my time there, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience—the trainers, staff, and other members were all wonderful. However, since 2023, I have noticed the gym has become quite overcrowded, especially during peak times, leading to parking issues. I often had to park in neighboring business spaces, which became quite inconvenient. Additionally, many of the machines have been under repair, and it’s often difficult to find an available machine since some members tend to occupy them for long periods while spending time on their mobiles. As a result, I decided to leave City Fitness. That said, if these issues are addressed, I would be happy to rejoin and continue my fitness journey there.

My happy place. Love the instructors who do spin. I work out there 4 or more days a week, one of the nearly seventy year olds you see there. There are some massively big fit people there but they’re not intimating. Then there are all body types, you see all are welcome. AND it is very good value for money. Also the showers and toilets are always very clean. Great range of work out gear.

My go to CityFitness this side of Auckland. Maybe a recommendation re where the glute thrust machine is situated… facing front on to the mirrors can be quite uncomfortable, especially when other members are using the floor space in front of it or machines adjacent/forward to it. Maybe facing a wall is better … Similarly to the adductor/abductor machine facing the bicep machines … another awkward positioning … Other than that, I enjoy my sessions
