Putney Leisure Centre Dryburgh Road, London SW15 1BL

"I absolutely love Putney Leisure Centre. I recently switched from Pure Gym and am so much happier here. While the equipment is a little old and the changing rooms need some renovation, there is a lovely community feel. Great for triathlon training too - clean pool and good bikes overlooking the pool. Only downside is some of the front desk staff. One or two women are pretty unpleasant - always a downer to see them. They never say hello to customers first, seems like we are interrupting them. I would recommend some more training on customer service and etiquette - even if they have been there for a while, there is no excuse. All the other guys at the desk are friendly."

"Mainly using the gym. Good selection of machines and weights. Some equipment is quite old but who cares. Changing rooms & showers are OK. Building is old and it shows it but again no big deal. In terms of how crowded things are: Evenings 8pm and later are fine. No queues for machines. Went a few time in the afternoon 4 to 7 and it’s ultra busy. All machines / treadmills / benches in use, need to be very flexible in terms of substituting exercises. Weekends are fine crowd wise but The short hours on Saturday are a bummer. Affordable."

"I only use this facilities to take my kids to swimming lessons and wait at the stands and cafe area. Even so, I have to give a good rating for the security and variety this leisure center presents to its members and I have always been well received even though O am not a member. Cant talk about the classes or services they provide but wouldnt mind trying them if the chance arrises."

"The staff are kind and helpful but the pool and the changing rooms are derelict; the worst is that each time I have been there, I found hair floating in the water and getting entangled in my fingers. Very unpleasant. Why cannot the management introduce a rule for everyone to wear a swimming cap? Many pools around the world have it as obligatory. No cap no swim."

"It's great for the price. I only use the pool and it's super easy to check what's happening in the pool before you go. There's free parking which you need to validate inside. Sauna and steam room are included in your membership, but don't forget to ask for a band at reception. The staff are always super helpful too."
