Reviews of Royal Roads University Recreation Centre (Gym)

Jeff Phila

What are you looking for in a gym? Have you asked yourself? What is your philosophy of use? Reflect and ask yourself what you are looking for. This University Based Gym on the Campus of Royal Roads University is a small medium gym with free-weights, cable machines, treadmills, stair climbers, stair-masters, personal trainer access, squash courts, 1/2 basketball courts with access of badminton, pickle ball, separate aerobics room, hosts events like boot-camp, yoga, spin classes (sign up required), they also offer bike rentals to explore the historic campus, this gym has access to showers and fresh towels, squat racks and bench press. Times vary, however, I've never had to wait for a bench for types of workouts. Staff here are very nice, friendly, it's service with a smile. You may borrow locks as well.

I love this place nice and spaced out the staff are amazing very helpful. I also like how everything is seperated and you can play some basketball very spacious!

Despite covid restrictions staff have excelled and worked hard at making this space ridiculously inclusive and a supportive exercise environment. The kinesiologists on board are amazing … helpful staff is an understatement and each time I visit I am inspired to gain more knowledge in functional movement and feel even more comfortable in what some could find to be an intimidating environment. Weight training is actually becoming something I look forward to thanks to Corbin and colleagues.

Small, quiet, with all the basics. If you like the GoodLife atmosphere, stay away; we don’t want you here. :P

All right guys. Get ready. This is by far THE best gym ive been too in the past month I travel full time and shower at gyms. GO TO THIS GYM. Shower feels like your floating in the clouds with God himself okay. Like a waterfall, in the clouds. The gym is big with tons of quality new equipment. FREE TOWEL RENTALS

Pelle Agerup

Great location hidden away in the RRU forest. Old and rustic building but all the equipment you need is there. No line-ups or waiting. Awesome friendly staff and I love that sometimes there is a dog helping with greeting the customers. Reminds me a little of the gym in Dodgeball.

Beautiful University

Evan Reid

Gym is pretty good, could have some newer weights in the weight room. But it's nice because it's rarely very busy. the aerobics studio is a great size, staff has always been friendly. The change rooms are nice as well.

Nazmus Sakib

Clean environment, never too busy, and free for the Royal Roads University students!

Helpful staff, high quality equipment. As for today you should still wear a mask except from cardio.

Kimberly Cook

I take roller skating lessons here. Great facilities and a nice layout. In a lovely area as well.

Mark Denny

My dog and I like to walk around the grounds. We meet a million other dogs, with people at the other end of the leash -- there is enough space for all of us. Dunno about the University facilities ( my wife loves the gym) but the grounds are great.

Spacious with all basic equipment for most of the exercises and good court for indoor sports activity

Ryan Fyfe

Overall a good place to workout. The squash courts need to be refurbished as there are too many dead spots on the walls and floor. Plenty of gym equipment to use.
