GoodLife Fitness Halifax Barrington Place

Fantastic experience: Good gym and usually not busy Do your exercises at your own pace with no worries

Fantastic experience: A great gym with solid equipment, great natural light, and excellent staff. Special shout out to Pam and Jenna, who are always super helpful and kind :)

Fantastic experience: Best things about this place is the staff. I have been to many gyms, and Fahim and the others genuinely care.

Fantastic experience: The best GoodLife Fitness in the province is right in the heart of downtown Halifax! Tons of natural light makes your workouts even better. Free parking and plenty of other perks, too. Go check it out asap! you won’t regret it

Fantastic experience: Great gym! It’s not very busy compared to other gyms and the staff are very friendly. It’s a well kept up gym.

Fantastic experience: It was great.

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, good equipment, not often super busy, plus it’s convenient that it’s on the way to and from university/work. Never had a bad experience.

Fantastic experience: Very warming for my first time in years being in a gym. Ali was amazing. I would have him as my personal Trainer all year! He understood my pain and even offered to train with me on his day off. Very professional! TY for helping me take the journey.

Fantastic experience: Best Goodlife in Halifax. Pam makes the experience all worthwhile with a warm welcome everyday! Love this gym

Fantastic experience: Great location. Not so busy even in peak hours. Group classes are amazing.

Negative experience: I’ve never had any issues with this club in the past — in fact, I’ve always held it in high regard, especially as someone who has previously worked here as a fitness advisor myself. But today’s experience was unacceptable. Without any verbal discussion, written consent, or prior notice, Fitness Advisor Ali Zeid booked me into a fitness class. I only found out after receiving an automated email confirmation. When I called the club to clarify, instead of offering an apology for making a booking without my permission, he casually stated that he had marked me as “attended” so I wouldn’t have any issues in future with bookings. Not once did he acknowledge the mistake or take responsibility. I found this not only unprofessional but completely lacking in basic courtesy and communication. Clients should never be booked into services without their consent — and when mistakes happen, the bare minimum is a sincere apology. This kind of behavior reflects a serious lack of professionalism, communication, and basic respect for members. Booking clients into services without their approval is unacceptable under any circumstance. This experience has left me questioning the level of professionalism and client respect at this location. I hope this feedback is taken seriously and helps improve  members experience in the future.

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience at Goodlife thanks to Fahim. He was incredibly kind, professional, and always willing to help

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Goodlife fitness for a while now, and I have to say it's one of the best gyms I've been to. The facility is always clean, the equipment is well-maintained, and there's a great variety for all types of workouts I love the fact that the staffs are friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to help if I have questions or need guidance. I also appreciate the welcoming atmosphere, it's not overly crowded, and people are generally respectful of space and equipment.I would totally recommend☺️

Fantastic experience: I’ve had a great experience at GoodLife Fitness barrington! The staff, especially the manager, are always friendly and helpful, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The gym is clean, well-equipped, and has a variety of workouts to suit everyone. It’s a great place to train and feel supported in your fitness journey. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Spacious, relatively quiet, and managed by a nice staff. Helps that it’s within walking distance and away from busy streets and centers.

Fantastic experience: Very good gym with very friendly and helpful staff. I visited on a trip with the military for a few days in Halifax and decided to find a gym and this was the one I found. With it being a new environment I struggled to find certain machines that I had in my training program. One of the workers, Pam, helped me get familiar with the gym and was extremely friendly and nice to chat to and gave me some recommendations on places to go since I was new to Halifax!! I would recommend going here and will come back if I ever go on another trip with work.

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere, excellent equipments, lockers and washrooms comfortable and clean and there is a good sauna. The staff Pam and Fahim are pretty friendly. I really recommend this Gym.

Fantastic experience: Super clean gym and lock rooms. Some unique pieces of equipment, and things seem well maintained. Wish the club at home was as well equipped.

Fantastic experience: Excellent Gym if you are downtown

Negative experience: The second dead mouse I found in this gym in three monthsthis one even start getting smelly now I'm concerned that they might run around the dumbbells

Positive experience: The gym and staff is really nice but can you please open it atleast till 10 pm?

Fantastic experience: Great place to have a healthy lifestyle. Perfect ambience for peace and workout.

Fantastic experience: Great spot to get a good workout in while I was visiting Halifax

Fantastic experience: Just started going here a few months ago. All staff are very friendly and welcoming. I always look forward to my morning workout before work and this place has lots of good equipment. Not usually overly busy when I go so no long waits for equipment. Place is very clean too.

Negative experience: What kind of gym closes at 9pm on a weekday?

Negative experience: The locker room was extremely filthy

Fantastic experience: Fantastic staff and members!

Fantastic experience: They truly brought back the concept of what GoodLife used to be!

Negative experience: Gives us back the free motion chest press please

Fantastic experience: Extremely friendly staff: thank you Barrington Goodlife Fittness!

Negative experience: Impossible parking situation, the gym is very small and crowded

Fantastic experience: The club is clean and staff are friendly

Positive experience: Good customer service and is well equipped

Positive experience: The music in the women’s change room is way too loud!! It always gives me a headache after getting changed

Fantastic experience: Great, clean gym with lovely people.

Fantastic experience: Super clean! Lovely staff and inviting atmosphere

Fantastic experience: Wonderful and welcoming staff Very well maintained and clean

Negative experience: They took away the free motion chest machine which was the most used machine in the gym, very disappointed

Positive experience: Decent gym overall, equipments are relatively new. However the operating hour is one of the worst I have seen from Goodlife fitness.

Negative experience: After they decided to get rid of the free range chest machine I decided that gym no longer slaps and I’m joining the ymca until they rectify this.

Positive experience: I like this location a lot because it's conveniently located however I wish they stayed open later, most goodlifes in other provinces are open 24 hours or atleast until 10/11pm

Negative experience: The machines are all squished together due to its small floor plan. Always have to wait for machines and weights. Opens late and closes early

Fantastic experience: Despite being in the basement and attached to a hotel, it’s a good gym and I usually find a free bench or squat rack most of the time. In fact, it’s ultra-convenient because the hotel doesn’t have a very good gym.

Fantastic experience: I love this Goodlife! The atmosphere is amazing, the staff's energy is unmatched and it's always clean! I would highly recommend stopping by!

Fantastic experience: There are some absolute beauties working at the barrington st GoodLife. Nhan was a g and helped me hit some heavy weight on the bench and it made my day. Thanks for that awesome experience guys.

Fantastic experience: Good facility right in downtown, friendly patrons and friendly manager and staff. I like the big windows so I could get some sunlight and see outside while I am doing my cardio.....

Negative experience: Ok gym overall, parking is hard to find, smaller locker room, some machines need maintenance, most patrons don't clean up after themselves , closes early and open late

Fantastic experience: Friendly and professional staff. Never need to weight for equipment. Best gym in the city!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic place; staff treat you well and it's never busy! Gym has a cozy home feel to it, highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Hidden gem downtown. Small, but never busy, and free of the posers and socializers who dominate the other locations nearby. Bright because of the windows overlooking NSCAD, and sometime enjoyably distracting people-watching out the windows when grinding away on a bike or treadmill. Very helpful staff.

Fantastic experience: Amazing staff, brilliant location, amazing facility, and a well thought out layout of equipment. As a downtown gym, you can’t get much better!

Fantastic experience: I have been to pretty much all Goodlife's in Nova Scotia. This is my personal favorite. Best staff. And best set up overall. 5 stars.

Fantastic experience: This is one of my favourite clubs to work out! The staff are genuinely nice and friendly which makes it even more welcoming. I love the set up and how spaced out the machines/equipment are. Lastly, the club manager - Elena is just a wonderful human being! She is great with her staff and members. Always very welcoming and willing to help! If you are looking for a new spot to work out and are in the HRM, you should definitely check out the GoodLife fitness club on Barrington.

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym in Halifax! Very convenient location right in the heart of downtown. A large spacious gym with an entire weightlifting area, massive cardio space, studio with great classes/instructors & it's own spin studio. Have always had a great experience here with the staff, they are SO kind & friendly! Very clean & well kept. Also, love the new change up of layout recently.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym, I am a person with anxiety who doesn’t have much knowledge about equipments and exercises but this gym is such a vibe. I don’t feel uncomfortable during workouts as a newbie cause it is quite most of the time. And members are very supportive.

Fantastic experience: These guys have been absolutely amazing to us. Liam, the young man working the front desk has been such a blessing to our family unit. We were affected by the flood and have no proper cleaning water still, and he's been our main go to Ina time of need. We essentially just need to be able to shower and get clean, and he's been so helpful in allowing us to use the showers and stay clean. It's people like this that give me more hope in humanity... We do intend on getting setup with a membership soon, but it's just been a tough spot for us at the moment, but we are eternally grateful for the kindness that has been shown at this facility.. It's clean and the staff have been absolutely amazing. They deserve recognition for their kindness. To the management there. Please make sure that man gets some sort of recognition or raise. Something. He's made your facility look morally amazing, and it's only drawn us into wanting to participate further and jump on board with them. Thank you for all the great things you've done for us!!

Fantastic experience: The gym equipment is good quality and the staff are awesome! Special shout out to Nhan Yun for being one of my favourite greeters at the gym. He really helped to make it a welcoming experience for me!

Positive experience: Staff is amazing - manager elena, simar, pam,spencer everyone is great. This gym is nice but not big as other locations. The only thing not to like is the prices (goodlife is overpriced) i wish they could extend their hours, close very early on weekends

Fantastic experience: All the staff are super friendly!

Fantastic experience: Was here for the second time the other day and have to say so far the best GoodLife gym, the staff are super friendly and the amount of the equipment is really good. My only complaint and it is really silly but I wish things were all together and not in multiple different locations of the gym

Fantastic experience: I have been to four GoodLife gyms in the HRM now, and Barrington is by far the best of them. Firstly, it is the cleanest and most organized. The male locker room and gym itself is always clean. Staff are always doing their best to keep that way. If the paper towel dispensers are finished, staff are quick to refill them, if towels are left behind by patrons, staff clean it up in no time. Staff also make sure weights are not unevenly distributed between machines. One staff even polishes the nooks and crannies between dumbbells! Lastly, the staff are the friendliest. From day one and beyond they have made me feel like I am welcome. Special shoutouts to Nyun, Abby, and Emma. Y’all the goats.

Positive experience: Visiting from Ottawa. Visited this location today. Seems like weight and squat area is an afterthought. Wished there were mounting spots for trx and bands. Big space for personal trainers but they didn't use the space when I was there which is a waste as they took up space in other parts of the gym. Space beside PT area could have turf and mounts installed.

Fantastic experience: Picking up heavy stuff

Fantastic experience: Was here for the second time the other day and have to say so far the best GoodLife gym, the staff are super friendly and the amount of the equipment is really good. My only complaint and it is really silly but I wish things were all together and not in multiple different locations of the gym

Fantastic experience: Convenient location with all one could want from a gym. I enjoy my workouts here.

Fantastic experience: Best GoodLife in the HRM! Always pretty quiet inside even at peak times. Lacks some of the equipment other GoodLifes have but has most of the stuff you could need! The staff is great, and unlike most locations, this one always seems to have an abundance of clean towels. It’s also very very clean, and maintained very well.

Fantastic experience: Best gym ever.

Fantastic experience: Amazing friendly staff. Absolutely so happy with this gym choice. Super conveniently located at the bus stop - staff is beyond amazing friendly, facilities are clean, and just an all around great start to the day. Been to some other Goodlifes in the HRM but Barrington is def my fav. Highly recommended.

Positive experience: Compared to GoodLife at Spring garden, it has less equipments. For example, only one Bench Press, one Leg Press, area for Barbell Squats… Overall the facility is good. The staff is very welcoming and helpful.

Fantastic experience: Staff still keep distance as you are a stranger, not that "friendly" as at other clubs, but perhaps it's new COVID normal

Positive experience: The equipment is in great condition, and the facility is clean and inviting. Shout-out to Roman for the great PT sessions! However, please stop reminding me every single time I'm here at 7:30 for my 20 minute workout that you're closing in half an hour. Not just when I come into the door, but when I'm doing my sets. The hand gesturing of numbers through the mirror is downright obnoxious too. If you advertise a specific closing time, please make good on that promise and not hassle your customers multiple times leading up to it.

Fantastic experience: Great gym Great space ans equipments Staff nice Clean and organized training area Accessible

Fantastic experience: Very friendly staff, A large clean gym with everything that you need

Negative experience: They are such a thief. I called them because my account was charged despite of putting freeze. They said they wont be able to reimburse me. My account was charged on July 4th for the month of June, July and August. I don't know why for three months all at once. When i asked why they said it’s our policy. I don’t understand this at all.

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff and a clean gym with great view.

Fantastic experience: Best place to workout downtown. Staff are friendly and helpful. Everyone cleans the equipment when finished.

Fantastic experience: The staff are great! Tons of equipment. Wish they had more lockers available and towel service again. But overall really happy!

Fantastic experience: Clean and has great views for a GoodLife!

Fantastic experience: Great spot

Negative experience: Staff seem nice, some decent classes... But constantly people on their phone while using equipment, and treadmills randomly time out.

Fantastic experience: Great place to workout; great staff; neat environment. Staff got to know my goals and they made it their responsibility to help me achieve them. Kudos to the management and staff of this gym

Fantastic experience: Big, clean and complete gym, they just could play different songs, every day the same playlist...
