Negative experience: Absolute horrendous people at the reception. They love to Harass whenever see a person of colour.

Rocío 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Very nice courts

Juan Jose Sanchez 3 months ago

Negative experience: Facilities are great. However, if you use the pool, the timetable is very busy unfortunately. The pool is taken over from 7 PM most of the year and limited time during the weekends. Published timetables are not always accurate, which makes it complicated sometimes.

Positive experience: Good gym and nice place for indoor sports

Rémi Speybroek 3 months ago

Positive experience: Nous venons de France et nous avons cherché un endroit où faire du volley-ball Nous avons trouvé le sport center du Trinity College, un endroit mythique de la ville. Le terrain était bien réservé et disponible pour nous avec accès au vestiaire. Cependant nous avons perdu un peu de temps pour trouver une balle, et elles n'étaient pas bien gonflées. Malgré cela nous avons passé un très bon moment.

Rafał Prus 4 months ago

Positive experience: Affordable price for 1 time entry, sauna, old school gym, and a pool.

Katia Polese 4 months ago

Negative experience: I got a membership just to use the pool and it's already the second time I go and find it closed (the first time the sign said it would reopen on September 1st, now there is a new sign with a new date). When you sign up they ask for a thousand data, but they don't notify you when they close and they just waste your time. The membership is too expensive and the service is non-existent.

Trinity College Sports Centre

These works are essential to improve the journey of our users, and are specifically to improve the performance of our heating and water systems.

Tamara Badran Badran 6 months ago

Positive experience: The sports hall manager is very rude with people. Doesn't know how to approach someone without giving out. Shame, as trinity has a wonderful court to play many sports.

Trinity College Sports Centre

Hi Tamara, we are sorry to hear about the negative experience you had in our sports centre and appreciate your kind words about the facility. Could you please e mail [email protected] with some further details on your interaction with the sports centre staff member.

Negative experience: always seem to have issues with the scanners. every time i’m at the centre, those scanners need to be fixed… staff/ security sometimes unorganized. don’t understand why there is only 1 mirror in the gym to observe progression, crowded over that big mirror.

alan c 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: Great gym over 3 floor's

Alismaria Gonzalez 7 months ago

Negative experience: The swimming pool was super cold, when you asked the manager, she only said, she was following Irish guidelines and is a pool for competitions, I don't know why is open to the public in that case, but with my own thermometer, the water was 26 degrees, and you're not allowed to take pictures in the swimming pool.

K J 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: My daughter had a ‘Multisports’ 10th birthday party at Trinity College Sports Centre. The girls loved the climbing, dodgeball and basketball. 4 young staff members stayed with them for the whole 2.5 hours. The staff were really great. Friendly, fun, knowledgeable and helpful. The kids really liked them. Very reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend for kids party.

Oliver Masters 7 months ago

Positive experience: Acceptable gym I used a couple of times while visiting Dublin, but would absolutely not make this my full-time gym. Pros: - Decent number of racks. - Decent number of bars. - A fair few dumbbells and adjustable benches. Cons: - No fully enclosed power racks. - None of the bars have a centre knurl for squats. - Absolutely no organization of the dumbbells, just a complete free-for-all with things like 40s next to 5s. - No chalk bowls. - Strange footwear policy (deadlift slippers apparently not acceptable, so essentially had to do ~1" deficit deadlifts wearing trainers). - Pretty impolite members - in several years of lifting weights I can count on one hand the number of times someone has said "no" to working in. Two of those times were in this gym and I only worked out here twice.

Hugh Plunkett 8 months ago

Positive experience: Fantastic location with lovely staff. There is a surprisingly large number of squat racks making the gym perfect for people doing compound lifts. I'd have preferred a wider range in machines but to each their own. Unfortunately the hours are very unfriendly to people working office hours. I'd love to see the gym open sooner in the mornings. Gym isn't maintained very well, machines are old enough for weight numbers to have rubbed off the plates. Several machines appear to be permanently out of action. Gym is also unclean, with dust building up on machines in corners. Lockers are far too skinny, good luck fitting a bag pack inside without using force

Kevin Mullaney 1 year ago

Negative experience: Used the swimming pool and I got a nightmare ear infection afterwards for the next few weeks. This hasn’t happened before or since when I go swimming in other pools.

Karla K. 1 year ago

Negative experience: Not suitable for anyone working standard office hours, especially for swimming - the pool is always closed for clubs or lessons after 18h, or it is just overcrowded. Gym spaces also small and overcrowded, classes are not designed with any logic or fitness level in mind, everything feels very disorganised. I regretted buying yearly membership, won’t be renewing again.

katya rassadina 1 year ago

Negative experience: I downloaded an app which promised me a free trial. Upon arrival they asked an email confirmation- never received. Did the registration again inform the receptionist - no email received. They said there is a person who could help , but guess what, she is off today. Long story short, no free trial, got charged €12, wasted time sorting out the issue , sauna was closed due to maintenance, pool was overcrowded, I would not come again. Didn’t provide the receipt either. 2 out of 5.

MJ O'Brien 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I am elderly but need to be a bit more active. I want to swim so this works well for me as its in walking distance from my home and I felt safe there. The staff, especially Hannah McGowan, were friendly and seemed to be enjoying their jobs. I am looking forward to using the facility.

Trinity College Sports Centre

Hi MJ, we hope you are well. Thank you for your kind feedback- it is much appreciated. We hope you enjoy your membership with us!

Positive experience: Bit dirty swimming pool and toilets/showers are old and nasty, gym is small and crowded in a school year. Lacking cable machines and steppers - only 1 there is always a queue there. NO MIRRORS in the gym

Fantastic experience: My grandson loves the activities

Trinity College Sports Centre

Thanks! we love to know it!

M O'Connor 1 year ago

Negative experience: Gym is good but often very crowded, could do with reorganising the machines so there is more space at the back for people using kettlebells and smaller weights. Fitness classes are also very geared around student timetable - earliest is 8.10, latest is 6pm and very few at all on weekends so it is not suited to someone working Be aware if you are joining for the pool as a non student - its essentially never open/free. Always closed completely at bank Holidays and then constantly in use for sports in the evenings and most of the weekend so again anyone who works during normal office hours can't use it. Will not be renewing my membership. Showers and changing rooms are very grim

Fantastic experience: My son really liked the sport center, even if he only did 1 week of summer camp.will definitely come back next year and do 2 weeks this time! He really like it because they were doing activities from 9AM to 4PM, spacing from tennis, to fencing, climbing, basketball, kickboxing and swimming. The staff was very attentive, funny and kind to the kids.

Sorcha De Brunner 5 years ago

Negative experience: Opening hours are not great at the weekend and it doesn't open at all on public holidays. That meant it was closed for three out of four days over the Easter weekend and every bank holiday Monday. This is not mentioned at all when signing up.

Stefan Baychev 5 years ago

Positive experience: Swim every day there. Good pool and sauna/ steam room. One off for the hours open to usage for swimmers. It has way too many extra events.

Lina Wang 5 years ago

Negative experience: The lady at reception was so rude. I called to book lessons and there is some misunderstanding about dates and time. Because of this, I got shouted so many times “ didnt you say Tuesday??? What a mess!! Now I have to cancel and re book everything!” I was treated so badly, more feeling like she was the boss and I was just her employee. As a customer, I was showing my understanding throughout. But don’t I deserve some respect and understanding on your end? very upset experience.

wilks john 6 years ago

Negative experience: joined in May but ive canceled my membership, the gym is tiny and by 5.30 is packed to capacity, to much time waiting for benches, the pool floor is to shallow on the top end, I was actually hitting the floor with my hands, very uncomfortable to swim in such shallow water. Finally... the toilets are constantly out of service, I thought it was a one off but it was continuously happening. The complex feels tired and needs money invested in it. I've moved to Crossfit Perpetua Dublin, not far away and MUCH better bar the pool.

Positive experience: Absolutely brilliant sports centre, especially after the renovation on the gym area. It would be helpful if a timetable would be displayed when the main sports hall is free for us. There is a sauna and swimming pool along side a climbing wall and many more.

Cindy Santos 6 years ago

Negative experience: I've never been so badly treated in my entire life. The old lady at the reception is rude and extremely racist. She just answers questions coming from students in Trinity. If you are interested in membership she simply doesn't give you attention. Rude and horrible attitude for someone at a front desk. Never will go back there.

Kate Pallis 7 years ago

Negative experience: It has smelled so bad in the fitness center for the past couple of months. By the time 7 pm rolls around you can't even breath because the room is so packed and so poorly ventilated. I'm not saying the place isn't up to code, but something is definitely up either with maintenance or how the place is being cleaned. Other than that the fitness classes are really great and so are the people who work there! I honestly think funding might have been cut to keep the place hygienic and comfortable, which is really messed up.

Ylva Zauberpony 7 years ago

Frank Slyne 8 years ago

Positive experience: Staff always attentive. Facilities good, but maybe should be fixed quicker when things break. Closed on bank holidays!!!

Eoin Cahalan 8 years ago

Negative experience: Don't join, it's theft. Students can clear out any area for their classes, there's no warning of this either. There's no ventilation in the changing rooms of the pool so you'll leave saturated. It's dangerously packed and there's been holes on the floor of the weights room for years! Holes!!! They also charge for any classes they do. Trust me its not worth it.

Rob Ryan 8 years ago

Positive experience: Everything you need

Brandon Ferguson 8 years ago

Positive experience: I've been a public member of the Trinity Sports Centre for about two years. I primarily use it to go swimming, although sometimes I do use the Fitness Centre too. I go almost every day, at different times of day, so I think I have a good sense of what goes on there. It can get crowded at times and I do wish that there were better opening hours on Sunday, but in general, I've been very happy with my experience there. I feel that the Sports Centre staff are excellent - very friendly and helpful. The 25-metre pool is very clean, minimal to no chlorine, and it is kept at a nice cool temperature for lap swimming. Sometimes when it's busy the changing area could use more upkeep, but overall, for what I pay annually I think it's pretty good value for money. My only comparison in Dublin is Club Vitae at the Maldron Hotel on Cardiff Lane and Trinity is far better.

Marta Piqueras-Brunet 12 years ago

Positive experience: I like that they have a climbing wall and pool and it's conveniently located by a train station. However I'm not crazy excited about it. Service could be nicer.
