Best gym. Great equipment. Good layout of their equipment and space. Friendly staff. I've been going to gyms for over 20 years and you will not find a better gym anywhere in Virginia.

Best gym in the area. I live on the other side of Alexandria closer to Van Dorn and travel to this gym because it's heads above others in the area. Despite it almost always being busy, there is so much equipment that waiting is never an issue.

Be aware of being scammed at this gym. Stay away from their UltraSlim Package. I have been going to this gym for well over 2 years now. They have friendly and attentive staff. My feedback, as well as others, have always been directly addressed by staff members or the management. You really feel like they put your satisfaction above everything else. So, when they introduced, UltraSlim, even though it sounded too good to be true (lose at least 2 inches in one session), looking back at the history of their customer care, I purchased this very expensive package. The worst investment I ever made in my life. I am usually very skeptical of such offers and have never fallen for a scam before but unfortunately, putting too much trust in the care and services of this gym, blinded me this time. The facts that they present and the paper work they make you sign beforehand puts them in a very safe place to be sued for their lack of delivery on promise. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if they used those same facts to answer to my review here however if you are considering to purchase an UltraSlim package from them, ask them two questions before purchasing. 1- Can you you put me in touch with at least 3 random people who have bought this service from you? 2- Can you show me your survey report from customers that have purchase UltraSlim from you? I am almost certain they will not do it because they will be exposed. We get a survey about almost anything from this gym except for this UltraSlim treatment and if that is not a red flag, I don't know what is. It was a very expensive lesson for me, don't let it be an expensive lesson for you too.

This is the best golds gym I have ever been to! The swimming pool is well kept and rarely used. The crossfit/SGX area is full of weightsleds, free weights, battle ropes and kettle bells is well kept and a great open space to use. The outdoor weight area is great in the summer. Highly recommend the HiiT Spin class! Staff is very helpful and will talk to you if you are looking for a conversation!

So crowded it's hard to enjoy my workout. Good luck finding room to workout in the free weight training section. Would be a great gym except everyone on the east coast decided to pick this particular Golds gym to workout.

Staff denies access to corporate members. That's unheard of with most gyms that offer both corporate and franchise memberships. Why use the Gold's name if your denying access to members who pay the most money for membership to utilize all Gold's gyms.

The gym by it's self is not bad, however the membership is overpriced and the one year commitment is ridiculous. Also their policies are centered about ripping off the customers in every possible way.

Solid gym especially when compared to the others in the area. Kept pretty clean lots of equipment, wish they would replace the deflated speed bag..(couple days after posting this was repaired). There are a number of downsides, first, are the number of entitled douche bags (guys and girls)that can't seem to comprehend how to put weights up after using them. Second, they seem to be trying to turn into a planet fitness... which if you actually care about fitness know that is not a good thing, posting signs about no chalk, no grunting, etc... waiting for the lunk alarm to go up and pizza to show on Wednesday and for them to get rid of any dumbbell over 50lbs. Third, if you want to lift between 530 and 8pm, good luck, it's full, mostly with the 30 personal trainers with clients everywhere.

I love it here. Everyone is so nice and I have talked to a few people and they all seem like great people. Sam, is great. He actually cares about you and makes sure you are getting what you are paying for. The people at the front desk, make a sincere effort to know your name ( even at 4:30 a.m. accuracy is down but still, the effort is there.) I'm so glad I switched from snap fitness.

One issue is some of the tread mills are not very good. But there are more than enough to compensate. I'm sure they will fix them soon.

I have been a member at this facility since 2014. I have come to think of this gym as my 2nd home. They staff is friendly ,respectful and helpful,the personal trainers all excellent. My experience has been life changing to say the least, I've lost nearly 120lbs , have rehabed from 2 knee replacements and 2 disc removal and fusion in my neck all the while dealing with pain from arthritis. My trainers were able to keep me on track with my goals of weight loss and strength training and I must say I'm in the best of health in decades. Because of the benefits I received at the gym it's lead me to pursue a career as a personal trainer. I'm happy to say this past June I received my certification and I hope to become part of this facility's family of trainers. I feel the need to give back, I am so thankful for what was given to me at this facility. I highly recommend this facility for a life changing experience.

Pricey but very nice gym. Recently underwent a thorough renovation, including a huge hot tub and lap pool, new locker rooms, and a large area designed for cross-fit type training. There are lots of free aerobic and swim classes to attend, and the gym has plenty of parking and extended hours. Plus, free child care that includes an indoor play place like McDonald's.

Christy (Cycle instructor) is the most energetic and thoughtful person. She makes love cycling and helps to build your confidence in a way that doesn't make me scared nor frightful of riding. I really enjoy all the love that she spreads in the class. Because of her I love cycling when before I hated it, it's not just exercise for me but a way of life.

I truly love this Place the staff makes you feel at home everyday and cater to your every need. The classes and trainers will help you reach all your goals.

Big reason I joined Golds was to avoid the overcrowding at other gyms in the area. Even at peak hours, this Golds is never annoyingly crowded, never people in your way. I'm sure that will change as this gym continues to expand and improve while maintaining competitive prices, but for now it's great.

The Alexandria Gold's is a great gym that is becoming even more great! The remodeling and updating is almost complete and the improvements to date have really transformed the gym. The weight room is larger with more equipment and enough space for everything. The Sled area is so fabulous, two sleds and space to do some alternating conditioning work. There is a new piece of equipment in the center area that has a trampoline and wall for ball bouncing, arm straps for leg raises, pull and chin up bars, cable machine and many different exercises. There is an area for rope drills. All of the new equipment is really fun to use and has allowed me to ramp up my training and is just more fun. The women's locker room is spacious with many more bathroom stalls, a designated changing area, enough showers and a sauna. There's more room to maneuver around the lockers. I haven't used the pool, yet, but it looks great and the classes look really inviting. The new group class rooms are bright and spacious and the lady gold's area is larger than it was before. There is also a new spin room that everyone seems to like. About a third of the gym is still in the renovation process. I am not currently training with any of the trainers, but they are all great - really helpful and positive. They always encourage me by complimenting my workouts and have offered assistance at times. I trained in boxing for about a year and really loved it. I am planning to return to boxing training shortly. The maintenance/cleaning crew all work very hard to make sure that equipment is in good repair and that the gym is clean. Everyone including the front desk staff is helpful and friendly. When my son was younger, he went to the day care - the day care staff is wonderful. My son really liked them and they are very good with the kids.I really enjoy training here and will continue my membership. Thank you Alexandria Gold's!

This gym is my second home. I have absolutely nothing negative to say about this place. Great staff, great equipment, very clean (not stinky like some other gyms), and constantly renovating and improving. The new salt-water pool, additional studios, and new locker rooms are amazing. I love being around others who take fitness seriously, and this Gold's Gym is the perfect place for it. No basketball court, but hey, can't win them all :) Still 5 stars. Keep up the great work!

I began working with a personal trainer at Gold's Gym Alexandria in 2012, it has been a wonderful experience. Over the time I have worked with 2 trainers (Carmen & Suzy) and they have helped me far surpass my fitness goals. I have lost about 70 pounds and fit into sizes I have been in before in my life! I am stronger and healthier than ever.

I've been a Gold's gym member for about 18 years and have belonged to several Gold's in the NOVA area and this is one of my favorites. The staff seems very friendly, there's a variety of different equipment to use and the upgrades to the facility thus far are very impressive. The gym is very clean and in my opinion it maintains the Gold's gym standards. I always look forward to my workouts here.

I have visited different gyms on and off all of my life. This is the first really positive experience I have had. I have felt comfortable using a variety of equipment and classes over my 30 pound loss journey. All of the staff, sales, front counter, trainers, house keeping and class instructors are all friendly and have a no pressure attitude. I am always greeted with a Hello or by name and never feel like I am going to have to sign up for something extra or buy something to maintain that friendly atmosphere. The class instructors are always amazing and I have always felt welcome despite how new I am to a class type. This location is large and still expanding, is always clean and has great people. I began as a shy novice and now visit 4 to 6 days a week with confidence :)

I've been a charter member since Gold's opened on Richmond HWY/Alexandria. I love it there, but I don't take advantage of it as much as I should!! What I do find is that if I'm in a "program" with a challenge or a trainer....it motivates me to go more often. RIght now I'm doing the 12 week Challenge with Chantal as my trainer/motivator...she is awesome and "Team Bikini" is going all the way! GO TO GOLD'S! It's clean, personal or confidential whatever you prefer and no matter how "fat" you are they treat you like a superstar!!! Lots of "buff" people there I'm a minority! Thank Goodness!

I have been going to this gym for over five years now (as well as the Lorton Gold's Gym) and have had nothing but positive experiences! The gym is clean, the machines in good working order, the staff polite and helpful, and the instructors in the GGX classes are amazing and inspiring. I regularly attend and love Body Pump, Spin classes, Body Combat, Body Flow and CXWorx. I have also had TRX and personal Training. Alexandria Gold's Gym is now a part of my life I could not imagine being without! Thanks Gold's!

I like Gold's in Hybla Valley because it is large and diverse. There are many classes offered and a multitude of workout machines and free weights. The people that attend and the staff are friendly and focused. There is mutual respect and tolerance.

It is also clean.

Since I have been working out with my trainer, Chantal Demers, I have lost 25 pounds. I have also toned all over. Most importantly I have a stronger core, which is helping me in my cycling and my yoga activities.
