Gym's in Limerick

    Just wondering if anybody can recommend a gym in the Castletroy/Dooradoyle/Raheen area of Limerick?

    I know there are older threads on this subject but I have heard that some gyms have closed recently and that others may not stay open for much longer.

    I would be interested in paying up front for 12 months in somewhere that has good equipment but that is not overly busy each evening (ie somewhere I won't have to queue for machines regularly). I would also prefer to sign up somewhere that will probably be open in 12 months time!!!

    Any suggestions?

    I work at one side and live on the other side so I would be interested in gyms at either side of the city. I don't go through the city on a daily basis so would prefer something in one of the area's I have mentioned.

    I joined Dooradoyle Leisure Club for the summer, was out there last night and they're after getting a truckload of new weights! Everyone was walking around with a big smile on their face. Nice atmosphere out there, they've got a good selection of cardio and nice pool too, everything I need anyway. Never too packed out there. Think they run exercise classes upstairs as well.

    I was going to suggest the gym in the Maldron Hotel for convenience but you cannot get to it anymore from the Southern Ring road. :mad: If you normally head up Childer's Road then it might be an option.

    I'm in the Maldron hotel gym, to be honest the toilets and showers need a good cleaning but it has a nice pool/sauna/steam room/jacuzzi. The gym has lost a bike and cross trainer that haven't been replaced but its pretty well equipped.

    They have an offer of €299 for the year of you pay up front before July 31st.

    Clarion hotel doing a deal at the moment too but haven't been in for a look...

    Im a member of the MK gym on windmill lane, it has a load of weights, plenty benches and theres never more than 3 or 4 in there at a time so no queues.

    i pay 30 euro a month and this includes all the classes that they do like abs blast and fitness secessions etc
