McGill Athletics & Recreation Reviews

McGill's gym facilities, open to McGill students and alumni.

Eh, the gym itself and equipment is outdated. They also don't turn on any air conditioning during the summer. Intramurals are way overpriced for the number of games provided. Also beware of thieves, do not bring your valuables here!!

Cheap gym with aging facilities but great value for students as it's only $35 per semester. It has a good selection of classes (extra cost) most evenings and is empty on Sundays.

Staff is nice and accommodating, money gets spent on treadmills and little else

nice place clean and verry good service at the door

A really nice place.
As always it s the goofs that you have to work out with.
Mainly clueless mysoginist gross boys.

Change rooms are filthy, but can't complain much for the price.

A bit of a maze, but nice facility! Well maintained

The staff are friendly and happy to help. The facilities are clean and modern. Great place to get exercise before a day of school.

How lazy you have to be to put information in your system after getting payed for it and being reminded twice. Every time I go to gym they don't let me in because on system my membership shows expired, then I have to go to administration every time before they let me in. I PAID FOR MEMBERSHIP AND I EXPECT IT TO WORK. Now I can't even go to gym cause admin office is closed right now. What a waste...

Nice training facilities, indoor pool and several recreational activities for both McGill students and staff

Low quality equipment but it gets the job done
If you need to use the cables you should just buy your own pulley system and take it with you

I only use the gym, but it gets crowded and some of the equipment needs to be replaced. Very frequently cannot find enough plates of various weights

Needs maintenance work, and more funding for crowded squat rack/platform area

music is too loud! I came to bump to my tunes not yours xD

Great place to do activities that you are a Mc Gill Students or not you can do activities there swin, Dance and many more i'm a Dance teacher there and also the staff is amazing and the students are awsome

Great summer camp in Montreal. My daughter loved the extra tennis hours

Great coaches!.. but pool needs a serious cleaning

Nice facility, a but too far from the university though....

My sons took a March break camp 6 to 10 on march.
I used to bring my sons stuff and meal and my bag from Saint-Lambert to there , as i read i could use cabinet for keeping their shoes ext.. I didn t get information .... but younger of mine enjoyed this camp which provides six of various activities each day, it you early summit it get discount as early birds.

Older gym. Has everything you need for working out but is in need of some TLC. They sometimes play loud music in the gym.

Horrendously crowded from 2pm onward all year round. Summer hours are laughable.

The pool size is nice but could be a touch warmer, wish there was a sauna, steam room and jacuzzi.

McGill gyms are a little too crowded. Possibly the blame comes back to the variety of activities offered on campus but still. In addition to the large amount of recreational space, the training room is constantly renewed for the enjoyment of users.

The locker room is fairly big, but old and thd facility is always clean.

Most of the the visitors spend about 3 hrs here and probably don t have a very good experience.

Solid university gym. Really appreciate the availability of day passes for community members (as a parent of a McGill student).

If you're a Mcgill student this is the place for exercises, pool, gym, run or just move your body. Incredible bang-for-the-buck ratio (for mMcGillians)

As far as I'm concerned this is a huge scam on students. We pay mandatory athletic fees each term. On top of that, they charge us an extra fee for the fitness center. During summer term they want to charge us AGAIN for both the athletic and fitness centers (athletic center NOT included if you're here for the summer). On top of everything, it isn't even that good of a deal for an overly crowded, outdated, and dirty gym. There are gyms all around Montreal that are updated, better maintained, and less crowded for $10-20 per month. McGill wants to charge students $35-47 per month during the summer. Massive rip off even for McGill students! Will cost you way more if you aren't a student.
