Equinox West 92nd Street

Overcrowded, not enough strength equipment and overpriced. The main benefit is that it is kept clean.

I love coming to this location because it is convenient from my home. Front desk staff are always friendly, and sometimes will even acknowledge you by name. The store employees are always helpful and friendly when you need to buy new clothing or a new water bottle. The women’s steam room is top-notch and perfect temperature to get a nice steam on but unfortunately the showers and locker room overall is very small. Unlike other equinox locations that have big showers on one side and small showers on the other side, this location unfortunately only has small showers. The lockers are extremely small. Fortunately, I don’t notice this location having a problem with members leaving towels everywhere. Everyone does a better job putting away towels here. The cleaning/maintenance worker Olga works very hard and does an amazing job despite other members thinking that they can talk down to her as I witnessed in the locker room. Other members need to treat cleaning/maintenance staff with the upmost respect and disrespect should never be tolerated.

This location needs an upgrade, the facade is terrible. I hope Equinox corporate can support and let this gym improve and raise the bar for the neighborhood. If the West Village Equinox can have a major improvement from inside/out, why cant this location have it too?

Be aware that tier in this location thinks you are hitting on them and they will always complaint with the GM and in general, they are not friendly at all. The gym is clean and have a nice distribution in the equipment.

While I’m a huge fan of equinox as a gym, and I’ve had great experiences at other locations, the staff here is extremely stuck up and rude. It’s a huge turn off to the experience when the check in and front desk folk act this way, and speak condescendingly to members

This is a good gym in general, very clean, stuff is polite, however, the choice of equipment is average. If you have a leg day, work out will be long: equipment is always busy, you need to wait even
at 9pm (people don’t share). Equipment variety could be wider; it would be nice if machines especially for leg workout is doubled, especially some machines on the basement level. The gym is also gets overcrowded often. Hours of operation could be longer.

Here is my truth about Equinox at West 92nd. First, the folks at the front desk are marvelous, friendly, and attentive. Many of the trainers, those not obviously distracted, are first-rate, bargains at any price. The place is fastidiously clean. And, there are issues. From a former fitness manager there, this branch of Equinox accepts 300 new members a month, actually more. Why? Obviously they lose almost as many or the place would be bursting at the seams. Question: Why do they lose so many members? Answer: No one pays attention. NO ONE PAYS ATTENTION! Neither to machines that are overused and need additional machines nor to those underused and need replacement. Nor is it noted when a member cordons off a machine with a bench and uses it for 30 or 40 minutes, the entire length of one short stay at the gym. No one pays attention. Not to members to whom "may I work in" is an affront. Not to those members who claim a machine and are most of the time on their phones. Sharing is not done, decorum is absent. I have voiced my opinion at the club several times. I have reluctantly cancelled my membership.

I love this gym, my favorite gym - Instructors are amazing except for Pamela Newkirk. Extremely unhelpful, doesn’t check if people are signed up to her class, can’t even talk to her or ask her questions, not sure if it is targeted hate towards me or what is her deal but I haven’t been able to get in a single class with her without her kicking me out when there is clearly still room in her class.

Most unfriendly receptionist I’ve come across yet when enquiring about a membership. Makes the choice easy to join another gym. Thanks

Great gym, the staff is super friendly and helpful. Everything is clean and the classes are great.

Front desk are extremely nice and helpful. Some of the good managers that were there have moved up in position to other gyms and have been replaced by not so friendly or helpful managers. I have recently found some trainers to take over equipment and working out during peak hours and interrupts workouts of clients. Many are working out together

I’m a first time Equinox all-access member and I absolutely love it! I do group fitness and I lift weights. I think it’s worth it if you go often (5-7 days/week) and use the gym. This location is clean, has friendly staff and trainers, is home to a gorgeous barre (and other cycling/yoga/boxing/strength) studio, and I appreciate that they have a SoulCycle bike with a monitor + access to SoulCycle on demand & selected livestream classes. Alex was my membership advisor and he was helpful with answering questions I had about different types of memberships and my experience felt very positive/personalized with him (not pressured in talking to him) - highly recommend working with him if you have any questions about membership or Equinox in general!

This gym is crowded, quite often it's messy, and the air inside can feel stuffy.
The layout is nonsensical - it's spread across 4 floors, and if your workout involves weights, you'll probably have days where you need to walk from the top floor to the basement, and then back. And even though the equipment is spread across these floors, there's somehow LESS equipment here, than I've seen at other smaller gyms.
If this is your main gym, you're being ripped off by Equinox - the experience here is absolutely NOT worth the membership fee.

Very clean showers, locker rooms and equipment. Can get busy but otherwise, helpful staff. Very chill gym environment

Excellent Equinox location and way better than any other gyms in Manhattan. Review is being given because the hours are wack.

This location is cramped and you wont be able to do deadlifts or even find a place for pullups. But 1000s of cardio machine, maybe even too many compared to stuff to actually work out. Extremely cramped at certain hours making the gym basically unusable, and the steam room smelled funny. (although none of the other eqx steam rooms do). I left it after 1 min because it smelled so bad like sewage. I dont think I'll be coming to this location again even though its the closest one to my house crunch on 86 definitely beats this spot

4 floors of fitness! Every type of equipment or class you can want. From yoga to boxing. Locker room has everything you could want, towels, face and body wash, shampoo and conditioner, face moisturizer, body lotion, deodorant, Q-tips, hairbands, razors, and shaving cream. (Kiehls’ products) this location is closest to me, but I use a lot of EQX locations and I am a very happy member.

Pros: clean facility, nice staff at checkin, decent variety of machines for cardio and strength training

Cons: there is only one of most weight lifting machines so most days I have to wait a bit or just give up on using certain machines (even at off peak times), there are fewer classes post pandemic (and most don’t fit my schedule since most are offered only in the mornings and evenings), and the early weekend closing hours are a joke (closes at 8pm on Friday and 7pm Saturday/Sunday). All of that combined makes me question why I’m paying $300 a month

Great gym, just wish they had better childcare hours. Right now, they don’t have kids club hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays and it’s not open til 9 am. If you go regularly, the classes are worth the price if you add up boutique-type classes.

Great tanning beds, clean and modern, complimentary spring water from water cooler, conveniently located (just two blocks from a major subway station), nice staff.
