Simply Gym Cardiff Bay

Well equipped modern gym opened in September 2018, plenty of parking. Busy at 18:00 on a Monday but most decent gyms are. Despite being busy the staff were helpful to a casual visitor.

On-site coffee bar selling assorted healthy snacks. Plenty of machines for cardio and weights, with a separate area for fans of free weights. Clean changing rooms and lockers.

Only caveat was the all too energetic background music which easily overwhelmed my personal choice on my headphones. I also saw a personal trainer having to yell to be heard.

Nevertheless it was a real pleasure to visit and I would go again and again.

Really big place, loads of equipment, even in peak times. Great class timetable too, I love going along to body pump and spin. The changing rooms, showers and toilets are always clean and tidy, with plenty of space, and they even have a sauna and a lady's weights room! Very glad I joined this gym.

The staff here are great. Friendly and helpful. The equipment as far as free weights goes is also really good. The machines however are limited and outdated and there is not enough variance.

The music in here is agony, a mix of pop and weird EDM jazz. I wish they did have a better playlist to motivate and be less “commercial”.
However it is an excellent gym wish they had a dedicated bench press set up especially in the pit. Would be useful for the powerlifting community in the gym. the mobile benches are too thin. Barr that good value for money and awesome and helpful staff.

Top quality gym, good staff, good classes, cabt go wrong, would recommend. Best gym down the bay.

Came for a spin instructor's course so didnt actually use the gym, but it looked amazing with everything you'd want in there... Functional area, free weights, resistance machines, synergy rig, good clean changing rooms etc etc. Receptionist was very friendly too.

Visited on a day pass whilst visiting Cardiff. Great facilities, a lovely big gym and was not too busy so no waiting for equipment. Friendly lady on front desk helped us check in. Will definitely come back whenever visiting family in Cardiff.

Oh, day pass reasonably priced at £7 too.

I travel a lot with work, and this is without doubt the best gym I've been to... ever. In the entire country.
