Rice Recreation Center Reviews

Has most of everything required. A little small and very crowded a peak hours. Two pools, one recreational. Also pool tables, ping pong tables, dance studios, and other fun things

I LOVE THIS PLACE! During the weekends its so clean,the Staff are so nice,especially the custodians,the guy its always on duty and he is so Helpfull,Totally recommend it.Love working out here!

Beautiful pool and recreation center on Rice University campus.

I visit it twice a day. Weight room meets all my body-building needs ( arms, shoulder, chest, legs, back, abdominal..). The indoor basketball court is professional, and it's free to borrow a ball (and the ball feels very good). Staff are warm and helpful. Outdoor swimming pool is large and very clean.
Last but not least--it's very cheap, just $53 for grad student one semester. I would still go there even if it's $530 :)

Few buildings at rice can satisfy all 3:
-wasn't built 100 years ago
-Is made of brick
-looks nice

Also a functional, sensible gym

Not nearly enough equipment for all students to be able to use at all times, but what's there is decent.

After a couple of months enjoying the Rice Recreation Center (and especially Rice Aquatics!), I can say it is a bit of an oasis for those seeking sports facilities beyond your neighborhood gym. Very friendly staff, good locker accommodations, excellent basketball courts, abundant equipment (balls, ropes), all operating in generous hours and in pretty much mint condition. Love the black/gray towels, and kudos to Bonnie at the front desk - earlier riser she'll always greet you with a smile :)

Great place to relax in this Rice student gym. It's as well open to public. The gym facilities include, swimming pool, badminton and basketball as well. There are more ways to relax. I fully satisfied with this facility.
