Gold's Gym Venice 360 Hampton Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90291

"January 2024: we purchased a week pass for $150USD each. Despite the cost it was an amazing and worthwhile experience to train amongst the history of the place. As far as the gym itself there's extensive equipment spread across three main indoor areas, and two large outdoor areas with equipment. Friendly front desk team too! I would definitely do this again when I'm next in the area."

"Always an incredible experience with the popular and trendy location. What makes this a must visit is the great vibe and the fact people go here to work out and break personal records. There is an insane amount of every type of workout equipment. There is no wait on any equipment even though gym is busy at all times. Gym staff are extremely nice and attentive!"

"An iconic gym we had to visit while in Los Angeles on holiday from the UK. We got a day pass which was expensive but we didn't mind as it is Gold's Gym Venice! It was pretty busy but there was still plenty of equipment to use. The staff were friendly and helpful and we had a great workout. Apparently we missed Arnold by a few days but his picture, among other greats were on the walls. If you are a gym fan and in the area, I would recommend paying the $50."

"The Mecca of Bodybuilding. It’s an experience to train in this magic place which offers all machines and equipment that you can think of. Everything is very clean and well maintained. Weekends and peak hours are probably tough, but most members seem to be friendly and supportive. Sharing machines or weights is part of the culture and works well. Be prepared to see half naked, sweaty bodies. People are proud of their achievements and show it. To me it’s again part of the culture of celebrating your body. You may spot some well known faces which makes it even more exciting. I wish they offered an option for semi-regular visitors who go 4-5 times a quarter and where neither day passes nor a full membership is an ideal choice. Overall it’s a great studio and I’ll return for a workout in Venice whenever my schedule allows."

"This place is amazing! Total state of the art equipment and lots of machines both inside and out. It’s huge and very clean. The staff there are so helpful and kind. Jeff the GM there was very informative and welcoming. We don’t live close but my kids want to drive there daily to workout now due to it being the best gym they’ve ever seen. Don’t settle on a bad gym. Workout here!"
