1 / 3Hurstville Aquatic Leisure Centre
📍 Hurstville, NSW
Community aquatic centre in Penshurst with pools, gym, group fitness, learn-to-swim, spa, sauna, steam room, and creche. Recent visitor feedback documents significant hygiene and maintenance problems throughout the facility.
Great gym facilities. Popular classes can be quite crowded(BodyCombat, BodyPump) - more classes would be nice. Lovely staff and instructors. I find the music is too loud for some classes. If you can put a safe decibel limit on the speakers, our hearing won’t be damaged. A booking facility for the spa, sauna and steam room would be good. Great to see so many elderly people keeping fit. It’s hard to get a turn on the rowers as they are always occupied. The Spin class is very exclusive - why? Suggestion: More rowing machines More bikes for the Spin class so that more people can enjoy the class. The room is large enough to hold more bikes. The reformer pilates room is under utilised. Perhaps trade in 4 -6 reformer machines for the above?
🏆 Family Action Verdict
The on-paper facility list is comprehensive, and the group fitness program has genuine fans. For families with children, the cleanliness picture documented across recent reviews — cockroaches in toilets, pool debris, dirty change rooms — makes this a difficult recommendation until management addresses the underlying maintenance issues.
