Gold’s Gym

They have really improved since the initial opening. Free weight area flows nicely and the staff seem to be keeping the gym clean which is great! I pay for a platinum level membership for the golds of Austin Hwy and this location makes that gym look like crud. Definitely my new go-​to location!

This is the best of the Gold’s Gyms in San Antonio. The facility is all updated and modern, and the equipment all new. It’s cheaper than the Alamo Heights location as well.
Only issue I have is that they desperately need more than one drinking fountain. The entire second level weights and cardio sections are served by just one. I also wish they offered towel service as in Alamo Heights, but again, this is at the lower priced club level, so it wasn’t expected.
Locker rooms are generally clean, but can get dirty during busy hours. They have a Gold’s Fit cross-​fit type section for those interested, and clean saunas.
Until they build a Lifetime Fitness in Alamo Heights, this is about as good as your going to get for a gym in this area.

I just moved to Texas from out of state and am looking for a new gym to join. I tried to use the free 7 day pass to check out the gym before signing up. The guy at the front said I couldn’t use it bc of my out of state ID, I showed him my (year long) lease with my local address and still wouldn’t take it. He was very rude about it and refused to help me. He was a bald Caucasian dude. Way to loose an almost definite customer as this is the closest gym to my house. I joined the Y instead.

Really really like this golds. Parking isn’t an issue which is big for me. The hours are pretty long, 5am to midnight. The facilities are clean and well maintained. All the front desk employees are very friendly unlike other golds ive been to. Weights are heavy going up to the 130lbs same with kettlebells. Only negatives I don’t like are the space inside is somewhat limited but they do make great use of what they have, and the fact the croosfit area is off limit when there’s no classes, it takes up half the bottom area and it’s rarely in use while I’m there. Would be nice to use otherwise. But still, I really enjoy this golds

So far I have really enjoyed my experience here. The front desk is always well staffed by friendly employees and the others at the gym are pleasant. The options machine wise are almost intimidating since that is not normal for most gyms! It is always clean, not a bunch of weights left out or on the floor where you can trip over them.
My only drawbacks are the lack of classes which I understand is for size reasons but even ones I would like to go to there seems to never be an instructor who shows up.
Overall I love this gym and I am glad I joined. I am sure as it continues to stay in the quarry it will improve!

My favorite golds in town!
It’s not grimy like the others, probably because it’s new but most people clean up and put away after themselves so it hopefully stays that way.
Trainers are always approachable and ready to help.
Everyone greets you with a sincere smile.
I love the golds fit option,
It’s not a bad price compared to all the other crossfit places in town.
The personal trainers motivate you and help you reach your goals, they give options and are not pushy about signing up for futures sessions.
Since it is new there is always room for improvement,
Maybe more water fountains and Tv’s ON in the women’s locker room.
Also more ab machines?
Its great regardless, I like the environment and as a girl I feel a lot more comfortable in the weight room compared to other gyms.
Good job

It’s the least bad gym in San Antonio. Very clean. Good location. Plenty of parking. Decent hours. But way too many cardio machines, and not nearly enough barbells or racks. There are always open cardio machines. It’s difficult to get in a couple sets of a barbell exercise without three bro’s wanting to share the rack with you.
This is becoming the norm nationwide for Gold’s. What happened to this company? It’s no longer about weight lifting. Sad.

Since opening last year, this place has been kept very clean. The staff is always very nice, greeting everyone and being helpful when needed. Machines are rarely ever broken and I am always able to use the machines I need. My favorite golds gym thus far!

I called to get some information and a pricing plan and was connected to this young boy named Roger. I think he was a young boy because an adult man would never conduct himself in the manner he did. He was the rudest person! He came across as a desperate car salesman. He REFUSED to give me pricing over the telephone and said they had hundreds of plans. I asked for the basic and told him specifically what I wanted and he refused to answer anything but we have 50 basic plans. He said I would have to come in and talk to him because they had so many plans! Did he not get exactly what I was looking for? I was specific! What kind of place is this? Are people getting scammed based on what this guy can shove down your throat? Horrible service and I would not join this place if my life depended on it! Awful experience.

This was probably the nicest Gold’s that I’ve ever been too, yes it has been only open since January, but it has a great layout. The girl at the desk was very friendly too.
They had new equipment, they even had those hoist machines as well.
The only 2 drawbacks I would say is:
1. No cardio cinema
2. You have to pass by the cross fit area, which is almost like a blatant way to peek interest into it. But if I was in there I would feel like a zoo animal with everyone watching me.
But if I lived in SA, I would definitely choose this place over the concord location, and it’s cheaper!

So far, so okay — here’s why:
I signed up to access the lap pool, the women’s fitness area, and to dabble in classes. To be honest, I have enjoyed my other gyms way more, but Gold’s is the only one with the hours I need and the showers I need.
The service is … okay. I don’t like how I have to hand an entry attendant my card to get in. Can’t patrons simply swipe a reader for entry or something? The process of handing over your keys instead of flashing a card is just weird. On the plus side, the staff always greets with a happy hello and says goodbye in a sincere-​sounding manner when you leave.
POSITIVES:
Women’s Fitness Room
Board to Report Aching Equipment

Decent Price
NEGATIVES:
Odd Towel Odor
Not Enough Water Fountains
Long Time to Adjust Squeaky Machines
Bad Weekend Hours (close too early)
Sun Beating Down on You in Treadmill Area
I have been to worse gyms, and I have been to better ones. This Gold’s (platinum) is A-​OK.

Nothing is more irritating than getting up for a 5:30 a.m. workout class and the instructor doesn’t show up. This is the second time this has happened at this gym. Ugh!

Well if you want to wake up and make the drive for Sandra’s body pump class don’t bother. She is either 30 minutes late or a no show. We will not be going back to this gym.

Been coming for 4 months now and it such a great facility with great view of the Quarry. I wish they had a pool but I like coming here.

I’m crazy about Gold’s Gym at the Quarry. I HIGHLY recommend the Gold Fit membership and the Gold Fit team at the Quarry location.
I recently moved to San Antonio from Washington, DC. I needed a new gym and walked in to discuss membership possibilities. Corey, the General Manager, took over an hour to talk to me and go over my membership options.
I wanted to figure out how to work with a personal trainer but my budget wouldn’t allow for individual personal training.
Corey talked to me about the Gold Fit option and for about $ 100 per month, I get me unlimited personal training in a group setting. There are 3 – 5 classes daily Mon-​Sat. Personal trainers and other GoldFit instructors work out with us. It’s like working out with your family and classes are anywhere from 3 – 10 people.
I’ve been to Boot Camps before and this is a much more enjoyable setting to me. Every workout is different and as intense as you can and want to make it. I’m a little sore and very sweaty after every class I attend. I go 3 – 5 times per week.
Steve and Christian are the instructors I most often go to and they have been AMAZING helping me modify all the exercises that aggravate my runner’s knee and chronic plantar fasciitis. I use a rowing machine when others run and there’s no shame. No one judges me because I can’t run. Whew!
I feel and look better already. I’m getting stronger, as well as being encouraged and supported by both the teachers and other classmates who all pump up each other throughout each class. They also hang out together after class.
With this membership I still have unlimited access to the whole gym and other group classes, as well as other Gold’s Gym gold standard gyms, like the Bandera Trails location, where I go to Cardio Cinema to watch movies while in a dark room full of cardio equipment! My favorite!
This is the best money I’m spending on myself right now. I’m grateful for Gold Fit because it is the most affordable way I’ve ever found for me to meet my fitness goals.

Brand new Gold’s at the Quarry Market… what more can you ask for! A good location next to theatre, restaurants, & shopping. Of course the facilities are clean airy & well lit. Check in at front desk when you walk in. You can buy Gold’s merchandise, bottled drinks, but no smoothie machine. There’s a nice kids club to your right. Walk over to your left & this gym added what’s called a Golds Fit sought of like cross fit room. This Golds Fit is extra added to your monthly membership payments. You can do it for 6,9, or 12 months with trainers included within a class setting. Locker rooms are downstairs with big mirrors lots of showers & some lockers. Upstairs are the GGX & cycling rooms. GGX room is very spacious but no stage for trainer to stand on. Cycling room is small so get there early for a class. Lots of machines & new weights in an open area room with big window views of the Quarry area. It has a sauna but no swimming pool I saw. But it’s a great facility & it’s a Gold level gym… so what are you waiting on?!
