Gym is in a dangerous location! Front windows have been shot out in past.

Sent in a request to see the gym and that’s where communication stops… general manager doesn’t respond to email after sending the original email to you, nobody picks up the phone on multiple calls, ring doorbell nobody answers door. Asked someone out front and it’s $60 a month. You should higher that man because he was more useful than any employee pf this location.

I’m sure someone will respond to this review quicker than they will the phone or doorbell

UPDATE: GM called me within minutes of this review. Told him I was no longer interested and hung up. The owner then called me within SECONDS from a different number. Told her I wasn’t still not interested as well and then she started rambling off sooooo I hung up again 🤷 I assume everyone that leaves a negative review is the ultimate bad guy/girl.
This is the best crossfit gym I've been to. Coach Julia is amazing! She is very helpful and patient. The community is great. It was my first time there and everyone was very supportive of one another. I will do another drop in next time I'm in Nola.

First time going to a out of state Anytime Fitness and I must say this is the cleanest one I have been to. I have been to a lot of them in Florida but this one is by far the cleanest.I don’t know if it alcohol or other cleaning products but you can smell it. Huh love it. Not to small nor to big. The thing I like about this one is you don’t see a BIG poster that’s right in your face once you come in on what you can and can’t do. I do recommend it.
Very big for a hotel gym. Fantastic!

Love this place! Just joined last week after walking by a hundred times, and I’m very glad that I did. Jake and Bridget, the owners, are super friendly and helpful, the place has a very welcoming feel to it, the natural lighting is awesome, I’ve never had to wait for a machine, locker room is sparkling clean, just overall pretty awesome. The best gym I’ve ever belonged to, by far. You’ll love it too!

A hidden gem in New Orleans. Phenomenal owner, hardcore equipment, outstanding environment, and great members. Highly recommended .
Totally disappointing, I went at 10:35 today, Tuesday, April 16, and I rang the bell and no one answered me. What's more, they had given me an appointment to go see the gym and sign up and the schedule says 10 a.m. to 6 on Tuesday

Dropped in for a WOD on a Saturday. Was stunned by the size of the gym and equipment. I work out in NY so every gym is tiny compared to this one. Friendly staff, great WOD. Hope to be back one day!

Trained here for a week while in town for work. Great experience and the most kind owners! They truly care about their members, but also show the same warm welcome to their day/week pass holders! Would be my home gym if I resided in New Orleans. Thank you for great conversations and the welcoming spirit!

I have absolutely nothing wrong to say with this gym yet I've only gone three times. The owners are super awesome. Nice! I don't know any other words for it, but it's awesome! Gym is a little small in the setup but it is what it is. It has a lot of equipment in this little small setup. I mean the bars they have there won't even compare to the major gyms that I've seen and I've come from xsport in Chicago, Illinois I'm absolutely enjoying the environment. It's well worth paying in advance. The 45 bucks a month. Again, awesome little Gym

Dropped in for a great workout during my trip to NOLA. Jeff and all the attendees made me feel welcomed and gave me great tips and corrections. The space itself is amazing and complete with all the workout gear imaginable. Highly recommend trying it out.

You can't run out of toilet paper in your restrooms on the first day of a long weekend, leaving a sign saying y'all are taking the day off. Please make sure your guests have the bare minimum. Thank you.

This is not your standard Anytime Fitness.

Newly expanded space (and all CLEAN!) with new cardio & weight machines (great variety!) and an engaged, customer service-focused staff available to guide you as needed, plus 24/7 access.

Starts with a fitness evaluation to measure BMI/muscle/fat/metabolism baselines to help set your goals.
Monthly isn't cheap & you have to commit to a year to join. BUT, if you want to work-out on your own schedule (instead of classes or only with a trainer), this AF has some of the best equipment, staff, & vibe I've found in NOLA. (Their trainers seem great, too!)

Specific s/o to Sean!!! His genuine interest in understanding my goals to help me hit them, obvious expertise, professionalism, and friendly/ welcoming style, made joining an easy decision and re-motivated me to get back at it!!!!!

No more excuses!

Thanks Sean!!!!
They have a lot of amenities for weight training and cardio. If you're staying at Hilton, you can get a 10$ day pass. It's much better than what amenities you get typically in other hotels

I dropped into CF NOLA regularly for 7 weeks in the Spring of 2022. They were incredibly accommodating, kind, knowledgeable, and flexible. The coaching staff was excellent, the members treated me as family, and the facility was clean, well stocked, and professional. Whether you're in town temporarily or live locally, I'd highly recommend you consider calling CF NOLA your home.

I’ve visited a lot of New Orleans gyms and this Anytime Fitness in the Garden District is by far the best club for the price in town 🙂
They have just the right equipment and I have personally seen their professional cleaning crew while I’ve done my Thursday early morning workouts. Check out all the photos here and then go see for yourself in person. Ask for Sean, the manager. He’s awesome!

In New Orleans for the holiday and needed a place to work out. Could not recommend 504 Fitness any higher. Great space with lots of exposed brick in a classic building. They had all the free weights I needed and there were only two other people working out. Staff was super friendly as well.

CrossFit NOLA is amazing. I have worked out in several crossfit gyms and CrossFit NOLA is undoubtedly one of the very best ones. The coaches are truly committed to our health and fitness. They are super friendly and highly competent. The 3 gym locations make it super convenient and accessible. So much variety in types of sessions!

This location has a very special touch. The people that manage it are very personable. I feel that I can ask the manager anything and receive great feedback. If he can’t answer my questions he always goes to the next in charge to find out information for me. They also respond well to emails. The new renovation gives such an open and bright vibe which is very motivating and refreshing for my workout. I love when they post tips on their social media and feel that they are always updating me on current gym info there. I am so glad that I found this gym. Thank you for your commitment to help me grow in my health journey!

I visited New Orleans with my girlfriend and some friends a few months ago and wanted to have a healthier active vacation so my girlfriend and I decided to do one drop in class and 2 one on one sessions at CrossFit NOLA. This gym is absolutely fantastic, the staff are wonderful, extremely pleasant, and incredible coaches! I highly recommend this gym for anyone looking for a great workout with some good quality people!
CITY SURF is a workout experience like nowhere else. It is quite challenging but engaging and fun. I had a shoulder injury and almost every coach I met took the time to tell me how I can adjust some movements and be safe.
Taylor in particular AMAZING is amazing and I just signed for all of her class, 6am or 6pm if she is teaching I will in.

Still the best Powerlifting gym in the city. Jake & Co are an amazing family and make you feel welcome.

Plus, tons of specialty equipment and lots of competitive lifters to learn from!

This gym has what you need to get in a good strength training session. The outdoor courtyard is AMAZING. Staff are friendly and helpful. Locker and bathrooms are very clean. Definitely check this place out if you want something a little off the beaten path.
Great learning environment that’s set up by the teachers. Quality instructors that give clear guidance on the layers of BJJ.
City surf is a challenging but very unique workout. Taylor was an amazing instructor and made the class fun and enjoyable even though balancing on the surfboard was challenging at times for me. It definitely takes a couple of classes to get the hang of it but don't get discouraged because everyone is very nice and happy to assist, and I am definitely feeling the soreness from the workout and looking forward to the next time!

This Healthclub is amazing, and if you are a Silver member and above with Hilton, access is free, and worth taking advantage of. There are Yoga classes offered on Saturday mornings, and there is an amazing selection of exercise equipment, tennis courts, etc. Additionally, the locker room has a hot tub available.
I liked the place. It was clean and well maintained. The staff for the most part was helpful and kind of friendly.
I started training with Eric last year and he has changed my life. I feel so much healthier, stronger, and happier. Eric is professional, knowledgeable, patient, and super accepting. Whether you're just starting out or have been exercising for years, Eric has a ton to offer you. He works with you to achieve your goals, supporting you all the way.

I found Pro Finess Trainers (Eric Capers) four years ago, and it changed my life. Arthritis in my knees had been getting worse for a long time, and my doctors just said I should walk more. Eric is a physical therapist as well as a personal trainer, and we started working on my strength and mobility - baby steps because I was so out of shape. Over time, I started to lose weight, regained my balance, and got so much stronger that after the first year I was able to walk in the Saints Kickoff 5k race. I could not believe it!
After two years I'd lost 40 pounds (slowly - I'm not into crash dieting- just adding healthy foods and reducing bad stuff), and felt like a pro in the gym.
Pro Fitness Trainers offers a free assessment to give you an idea of where you are, and there's a free bootcamp on Saturday mornings in the park.
If you're having trouble finding a trainer who you can trust, and who can really make a difference in your life, give Eric a call. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain!
P.S. I just turned 75!

The gym is incredible. It is a health club attached to the hotel and free for guests. It is a full on gym with dozens of cardio equipment, a full range of weights and machines, rooms for tennis, pickle ball, racquetball, boxing, rope climbing, etc. There’s even a pool and sauna! Everything is free to use, however renting equipment for some of the sports does cost money.
Front desk staff are super nice and gym is clean and not crowded.

On a serious note, everyone was friendly and willing to teach a newbie. Matthias is very nice, patient, and a great instructor. Highly recommend to anyone interested in learning a martial art or sport.

I started training with Eric and Pro Fitness Trainers in June 2020 in preparation for my wedding in October. In addition to wanting to look great in my wedding dress, I also had a goal to learn to lift weights safely.

Eric is an incredibly motivating trainer that genuinely invests in his clients. His training sessions are informative, challenging, and worthwhile. I’ve seen so much progress in terms of how I feel, the way I look, and my own personal strength. He pushes me to be better every session and I am truly loving the results.

I also wanted to note that Eric’s prices are very affordable and he offers free a bootcamp class every Saturday morning at the Fly. If you have goals you want to achieve whether that be strength training, stamina, or just making the switch to a healthier lifestyle, I highly recommend taking a free fitness assessment with Eric and starting your journey with Pro Fitness Trainers! 10 out of 5 stars ⭐️
Really enjoyed all of my classes at City Surf so far! It is a really great mix of a cardio and strength workout. The first class can be a bit challenging in adjusting to the feel of the board. However, you DO get used to it, and by my 4th or 5th class, I felt like I really got the hang of it. I also recommend buying the socks with grips on the bottom (they sell them at Walmart). Everyone is different, but I personally felt like that really helped me feel more stable!

Better than nothing. After LSU won the national championship, this gym is quiet. There were a few ambulanves passing by coming from the downtown area. Anyway you can see that off this street by tchoupitoulas street. Basically this is a good location. The gym has decent equpiment for a party town and it appears clean. A
City Surf is such a unique workout! I do tons of group classes, and I was pretty surprised by how challenging the balance aspect of the board is. I also like the variety of classes they offer (some HIIT, strength training, etc). All the instructors are great - Becky is really invested in each client to have a great experience. And I had one class with Zac and burned a ton of calories and left super sweaty, which was a nice plus!

This box is one of the best ones I have ever visited worldwide! I attended their classes for one week. Also, the boxmates were extremely friendly and welcome. I had a great experience while visiting Crossfit NOLA: excellent coaching, great programs and great mates. They made me feel at home. I am looking forward to coming back soon and training again there!!!

First class was this morning and I highly recommend it! My instructor, Megan, was great and encouraging through out the class. Can’t wait for my next class 😁
I have never been one to like group workout classes, but City Surf has changed that for me! Provides a great but also fun workout.
These classes put every muscle to work (some you didn’t even know you had)! Great workout, upbeat/fun classes, highly recommend!!

This is THE MMA and Brazilian jiu jitsu organization of the area. The class selection and times are second to none because there are four schools to choose from!

Matthias is the most down to earth guy you could expect. Come in with rage, stick around, and notice your rage turn to zen and acceptance of whatever life faces you.

Thanks Matthias for starting all this. Has changed my life.
My favorite fitness studio I have ever been to!! The instructors are motivating, the environment is extremely welcoming for people of every fitness levels, and it doesn't get any cooler than doing fitness on a surf board. I have seen so much improvement with my strength, balance, and overall fitness level since I have started. 100% recommend!!!

I only go here for eskrima. Did 3 classes this week and the instructor, James Wilson, is great!

Although, I wish the schedule for weekdays started earlier. As well as adding more classes for the weekend.
I love City Surf! They offer a variety of different class options and each class has been very different (and challenging) based on the instructor and class type. Don't be intimidated by the surf board, it's easy to get the hang of within your first class, and the instructors check in with you to offer suggestions and help when needed as well as a quick tutorial prior to class. I would recommend.
I have loved absolutely every class and all of the instructors bring their own style to the classes, which make them all a little different. Before my first one I bought an unlimited month pass at the intro price, DO IT!! You will love the classes (they’ll kick your butt, in a good way) and be glad you did. I’m bummed I’m leaving town and won’t be able to come to the classes anymore. Becky, the owner, is seriously the sweetest and makes you feel welcomed immediately!

Love rhe folks here...great workouts, always changing and making you sweat hard...its a small space and I cant wait till they move across the street to their new building...should be more room and hopefully they add more options ( equipment ) for even better workouts.
Do yourself a favor and go sweat at HourBlast !

Fantastic facility with even greater staff. I put on 15 pounds in 2 months with a trainer named Scott. I've tried every gym in New Orleans and this one is easily the best.
I CAN'T MISS my weight training. I can tell the difference in not only my strength, but also in my agility, balance, and most of all my confidence.

My experience with Kelly Personal Training has been exceptional.

Their workout is designed to build muscle mass and core strength. You only go once a week for 30 min to work with a trainer who assists you in your workout. The sessions are vigorous, deep and totally effective. Its a safe space where I feel fully supported. I love that they don't have any mirrors in the room as it helps me to relax into how my body is feeling.

After a few months of consistent training my body feels amazing. My core is super strong and the aches I used to get in my joints and back are gone. My trainer (Virginia) is super professional and really does a great job getting me to work at my limit.

I totally recommend this gym and their unique training system. Their prices are very reasonable, you even get 2 free sessions to try them out when you sign up.
The BEST 30 minutes I spend on myself every week!

I cannot tell you how much healthier I feel since I began working out at Kelly Fitness approx. 3 years ago. My low back pain is gone – I feel stronger – and at the end of the 30 minutes I know I am done for the week! What can be better?
