I am in my 60s joining a gym for the first time of my life. I immediately hired Charles, who is an amazing trainer. He has done more for me than all these years of physical therapy. With three spinal fusion and two hip surgeries, I feel I’m finally ready to strengthen my body with weights and it’s working! I feel stronger and more confident and I’ve lost weight. Charles is so patient and encouraging and pushes you to do your best. I did 2 12 sessions with him And now continuing on my own, but will rehire him as a refresher again I highly recommend Charles, especially if you’re a beginner like me!

Although it was a positive membership specific experience that prompted me to write this review; it's the overall atmosphere that Julia has created @ Equinox Darien that wows me! Thanks again, Julia & Equinox!

It really is a cool place, since it is a smaller gym, you get top notch customer service, the gym is never packed, there's enough equipment for everyone and it is a chill place. There are people that are just starting to work out and the big gym bros but, it doesn't get overwhelming at all. I do personal training and Robert, he is just so knowledgeable and cool and he listens to my goals and how fast or slow. Also, another extra perk is the parking area. There's always parking space available! Which is a must compared to the Greenwich location which is always difficult to find parking. In general I really think you get what you pay for and more. Another thing, the classes are really cool, cycling and Pilates are the only ones I've taken and I loved them!

My favorite Equinox in the tri-state area! It has the best equipment, space, layout by far. And God bless them for having such a spacious locker room. Such a pleasure compared to the Greenwich branch

I’ve been working with trainer Charles Lomanto and in a short time have made progress towards my goals. He is professional, knows what he is doing, and has thoughtfully and consistently challenged me beyond expectation. The staff are welcoming. The steam and locker room are great. The space can feel tight to navigate at times but the equipment and overall vibe make up for it. I highly recommend personal training with Charles and Equinox in Darien.

In 25 years of training in all types of gyms, I've never been as insulted by the staff as I was today by Marcus (trainer). While I was in a deep stretch, he pushed past me to put away his client's mats and bumped into me, causing me to strain my upper left calf muscle. When I popped up and uttered "are you kidding me?", Marcus DOUBLED DOWN and said sternly: "YOU'RE BLOCKING THE EQUIPMENT, BRO". When I then asked for his name, he turned his back and muttered something about his name tag.
I don't know how long Marcus has been working at the Darien Equinox or how solid/secure his client roster is, but he is WAY too comfortable out on the floor to the point that he's walking around bumping into patrons while they're stretching and mouthing off to them when he's confronted. Entirely unprofessional and borderline criminal behavior. If you're a client of his, I sincerely suggest you stop paying him to remind you to breathe while he watches you lift.

I was a member here for a year and I loved the facility, the staff and the trainers. I was never warned when I signed up that biological men would be allowed in the women’s locker rooms. Sharing a locker room with a biological male who is allowed to sit on his phone for the entire duration it takes me to undress, shower, blow dry my hair and leave for work was sickening. For three weeks I watched this person with phone in hand and eyes on women in the locker room. I have never felt so uncomfortable or violated in my life. Really hope that person wasn’t taking photos when they saw me undressing the last three weeks. If you’re a female and you’re okay with sharing locker rooms with biological men then you won’t have any issues here. Everyone is awesome and the facility is amazing!

If you’re a female stay very far away from this place!! They allow men into the women’s locker room to do as they please, to watch women change and shower. Management won’t do a single thing about these disgusting occurrences. Give up your memberships if you have one here and find a gym that respects the safety of women.

I took a tour of the gym with Steven and he was very helpful and nice. He answered all of my questions in detail as well as many follow up questions over text. Above & beyond customer service! I’m excited to use my membership

I'm a long time member of this gym. There was a recent management change and I'm very unhappy with the new manager, Christian. Customer service has gotten terrible since he took over. I will be looking for a new gym to join.

I have been a member at plenty of gyms and this is by far the best one. I love the steam room, showers, locker room and everything that comes with the gym. My favorite part (although there are many) are the eucalyptus towels 😍. Everyone that belongs here the members and the staff are incredibly nice and everyone is super respectful of each other and sharing machines. I’ve never been more motivated in my whole life to go to the gym other then Equinox!

Amazingly run health club! Impeccably clean, friendly staff, every type of weight, prop, or machine you could need. They also have a variety of classes. Always adding something new and different.

Decent, clean gym, I like the available towels and that it doesn’t seem to get too busy. Locker rooms, steam room and showers are top-notch. Mid-size space, tall ceiling on top floor, but not so much on the lower floor. There’s not a lot of workout equipment in comparison to much more affordable gyms in the area. Seems to have a ton of class offerings though. The membership is pricey, so to each its own. The biggest downside for me are the working hours, which are absolute worst than any gym in Connecticut currently. (Closes at 8pm Mon-Thurs, 7pm on Fri.) I hope they change this soon, or I may look elsewhere because of these bad hours.

Poor layout with redundant and dated machines crowding the space. Decent facility but one of the lesser Equinoxes I've been to and gets very busy at peak times. Management has no sense of urgency to modernize the gym.

I was a member for about 8 months. Be careful with what you sign up for. The app never worked and the front desk took message but the management never responds to your phone calls or attempts to contact them. Every time I went there I spend 20 minutes just trying to set my app up could never do that. I froze my account but they kept posting charges on my credit card stating that was the first time I found out that it was a 12 month contract. I spoke to the manager Megan after 14-15 days of leaving messages. Half the days she was out other half she was in one meeting or the other. She almost never calls you back. She mentioned that she will take the charges of freeze period off if we continued for atleast 6 months. Cancellation was another horror story. Last time we went to the club was May 23 and I notified them by email that we no longer will be able to come on June 6 but the charges on on my account kept posting till July. The manager is extremely hard to reach.
They sold it to me stating it is a month to month that could be cancelled at anytime and did not explain the 12 month requirement for new Please don’t make the mistake that made. You will not get the promised service, the dealings are unclear to start and closing your account will be another challange.
