World Gym 世界健身俱樂部 台北站前店

This gym is big, we never had a problem getting on any of the cardio or weight machines. There are enough benches in the free weight area to not have to worry as well. I found that the equipment was in good condition and didn't have any issues. Dean was also ultra friendly and we had a good experience talking to him. The location is also good and there is a subway entrance right next to the gym.

such a good gym

This place is definitely a scam. True, it is the biggest gym in Taiwan but they also have bad reputation for their ways to half force their visitors to buy their membership/personal trainer packages.nn1. They advertised 7 days trial online, but they don’t let you do it. They spend hours explaining their membership and REALLY want you to buy membership the same day WITHOUT trying out their facilities.nn2. The way they force your mind into buying their minimum 24 months membership contract is that you get a price that is way cheaper than their normal price if you purchase the membership without the trial period.nn3. They offer different price packages to different people. The monthly fee can range from NTD 1588 to NTD 1288. They decrease the price if you are more unwilling to join the gym. I think it’s ridiculous and unfair that people join the gym for different fee and use the same equipments just pouring based on their willingness to join the gym.nn4. After you join the gym, they call you nearly every single day to let you make appointment for the 2 free persona training session. After that, they do the same tactic of offering different prices with the packages. If you purchase on the day, the price will be cheaper againnnI’ve talked to their employees and cancelled my membership free of charge within 7 days. Their employees stated that since their employees commission rules are pretty unfair, their employees really have to work hard to get a reasonable salary. I definitely think this is a company that we should avoid to stop this unreasonable treatment to their employees and their customers.nnEverything was purely just based on the experience I’ve had with them and also comparing their service to other gyms I have experienced.

Cool place

Everything seems to be brand new. New Hoist and Hammer Strength machines. Weights are all new. From what I understood from the guy at the front desk, sounds like they got all new equipment in the last year or so. Club was clean. I did not see the bathrooms. One day pass was $650 NT or about $21-22 USD. Would say this is comparable to the US, maybe a bit higher. Definitely more than I expected.
