I've been working out at Meridian since 2006 when I moved to Hamburg. I've seen my share of gyms…read moreover the years and I have to admit, after working out at almost all of the Meridian locations, this one is most ghetto. Unfortunately, after changing jobs, the Wandsbek studio is the nearest to me. Hence I'm forced to go here if i want to get in lunchtime workouts. I prefer the Eppendorf studio as it seems to be the cleanest and City was quite good. I am sure the newer the studio, the better. Nevertheless, Wandsbek is getting on in years. Further, the crowd that works out there is not really high-end, if you know what I mean. You definitely have a different crowd in Eppendorf. One positive is that the ancient weight room in back is still great if you are really into lifting heavy weights. Although the stuff in that room is dated, it still remains far better than many of today's modern machines. You have a solid squat rack as well as shoulder press rack and the ability to go heavy. The locker rooms and showers are also getting older and it's downright ridiculous if you have a locker upstairs and have to go downstairs to shower and then back up. Total waste of time. The spa area is OK but not the best I've seen and if I ever want to hit the steam room or swim, I prefer Eppendorf. That's rare but again, somehow this location has lost its luster. If you can, make another gym your home base. If you're forced to work out here as there aren't that many options in the area, try to get away and hit the other studios when time allows.

After 15 years being a member of Meridan Spa Wandsbek its time to write my first and only report…read moreabout this facility: Its gettting worse over the time ! Nowadays its a place where mostly foreigners from southern europe or other non-german nationalities are the visitors, with all kinds of negative side effects for those who just want to do a work out. Anyway, this is probably the new trend in Germany anyhow, but in addition to that the customer service is lousy ! Most of the time Meridian Staff is present, but instead of inspecting training equipment they just walk around to show their presence and at complaints a reaction is not seen. I complained about the breach of Meridian Bylaws by some of these visitors, but ignorance is all I received as response. I tried over years to find out if there might be a reaction from the office staff, so when canceling my membership I thought to get a reaction - no reaction, Meridian is just pushing to get more new members of a specific kind instead of keeping customers. Talking to other long term members I heard the same complaints. Just because there was no better SPA around, me and my friends where forced to stay. Now its over and I strongly recommend anybody who wants to do sports: Look for any other Fitness studio elsewhere - unless you prefer a oriental flair. Paul J. wrote a review on 3/19/2013 and I fully agree to him: Meridian has become the most ghetto of all Meridians in the city of Hamburg !

Crossfit in Hamburg is much cheaper than NYC, and if Crossfit people in NYC were as nice as the…read morepeople here I might even think $350/month is worth it... I took an intro with Chris which turned out to be just me and him. He gave me a super bangin workout and I loved crossfit at first sight. The on-ramps were less personalized but I really really really recommend you take 1 or 2 or all 6 with Michael who is the owner here. (He is Canadian so he speaks English in class.) Super talented/nice/strong man with a phd in physical chemistry. Too bad I didn't stay in Hamburg long enough to continue with a membership after my on-ramp but I have mad respect for what the people do here and would return any time I go back to this city.
