I just wanted to say how wonderful Lamia was during my visit. She was incredibly kind, welcoming, and professional from the moment I arrived. She handled everything calmly and efficiently, even while clearly busy, and made me feel at ease straight away. It really makes such a difference when youβre greeted with warmth and patience. Sheβs a real asset to the team and truly represents the service in such a positive way. Thank you for the excellent care and customer service!
π Family Action Verdict
Best for families committed to regular swimming lessons or lap swimming in a well-maintained aquatic facility. The children's pool and multi-level lessons suit a wide age range. The gym suits parents wanting to train alongside kids' sessions, with solid specialist equipment for its size. Visit off-peak to avoid the gym becoming crowded.

βI took my son to the centre for a tour of the facilities. Staff were all very welcoming and friendly. Facilities are great. Following that we had an issue with the parking. I emailed the centre that day and had a very quick reply from Lamia. She sorted the issued immediately. Prompt, very polite and supportive all round. Thank you for excellent service.β

βI want to mention the staff member Lamia at reception who is always helpful and supportive to everyone who comes into the centre. I am always happy to see her as I know I will be greeted with a lovely smile and excellent service. The only thing that needs improving is the Air con schedule in the studio for the classes. Other than that very good centre.β

βI have been going to this gym for more than 3 months now and can say that itβs actually a very good gym with quite a lot of specialist equipment for itβs size - loads of pull up bars, an assisted pull up machine, punching bags, skipping ropes and even a curved treadmill! Itβs a great place to go if youβre into functional training. The staff there are all friendly, polite and helpful - readily engage clients throughout the day. The male changing rooms are quite spacious with good showers. Iβm aware that copthall is renown for itβs swimming pools as it contains an Olympic size pool; a second pool for adults and one for small kids as well, though I havenβt used them of lateβ
