Village Gym Aberdeen

Having moved home, I joined my local Village Gym after being a member of another gym which I loved and it's always hard moving. I was immediately made to feel welcome and given a fresh programme personal to my needs. (PT) Chloe was really good at listening to my limitations due to surgery issues as was Aimee one of the trainers running classes. Sophie too was so lovely when I purchased my membership. Thank you for making it an easy move, never easy!

A well equipped gym more cardio based than free weights. One complaint is the temperature it's far too hot!

My first impression was wow as I didn’t expect a modern gym with a name “village”. So I went comparing this to it’s rival David Lloyds (DL). The village has better gym equipment that’s newer if not the latest. The treadmill and elliptical has huge screens. The wet area e.g the swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna & steam is a little smaller than in DL especially the jacuzzi. I like the changing room with the magnetic band in village as it’s so convenient to use the locker without having to bring your own padlock. However the space was rather cramped and I had to wait to use the shower and even the hairdryer which I never had this problem before in DL. Plus part of this changing room are they provide not just bodywash but also shampoo in the showers and have hair straighter together with hair dryers at their vanity counters. Not too sure about the full packages here as I only managed to try this gym out for a day hence can’t compare fully in terms of value for money. The convenient part of this gym is the spa next to it, Starbucks coffee and the restaurant in the hotel which serves delicious food presented in a lovely rustic style.
