Equinox Century City, Los Angeles CA

Even though it’s not the biggest gym with the most equipment, the layout is great because it feels like there’s a lot of space & it’s one of the nicest locations in LA. The combination of high ceilings, an inspiring view, and always being super clean makes the $300+ per month price tag worth every dollar for me! Highly recommended

After having just joined Century City and upgraded my membership after 18 years at Equinox Westwood, I can only say that I am sorry I did not do so sooner. This is everything that I was looking for in a club. It is uncrowded, the women's locker room is immaculate, beautifully designed and appointed, and there is the right balance of equipment, so I disagree with some other reviews on that. It also has a zen atmosphere-no blaring music! - and a full range of classes, especially yoga. Not all classes are Vinyasa and Power, but Yin and Gentle too, which suits me well. Great club! And with this membership you can visit other clubs if more convenient on a given day or if you have been working with a trainer elsewhere.

Despite Equinox having a strong reputation as best-in-class gyms, this location falls very short of this. The gym is clean and organized but my rating reflects the unbalanced distribution and insufficient quantity of equipment. This comes along with Equinox forcing you to enter into their top tier "Destination Access" in order to access, which comes with a hefty price tag.

This gym is also very small relative to over locations. While it is well maintained, it is significantly under-equipped for weight training. It's almost hard to stomach the cost for such a small and ill-equipped gym. They gym feels like they only cater towards cardio users, which is ironic given how busy the weight training area compared to the cardio area at peak hours.

I seriously hope the management takes this into consideration as it's almost laughable to pay an absurd rate to get access to a tiny, sparsely equipped gym. I really hope they make changes going forward to have more of a balance.

Title: More Cardio than Muscle at Equinox Century City

As a gym that generally has a reputation for providing top-notch facilities, it's disappointing to report that Equinox Century City falls short of the standard. Despite the cleanliness and well-maintained nature of the gym, my 2-star rating reflects the unbalanced distribution and insufficient quantity of equipment.

This gym, although compact and tidy, is significantly under-equipped for weight training. The cardio machines are abundant, almost overwhelming the floor space, while the weight-lifting section feels like an afterthought. It's as if the gym has been specifically designed to discourage serious weight training. This puzzling layout choice restricts workout variety and could potentially deter a significant portion of fitness enthusiasts.

In line with my experience, I've noticed that this location is one of the lowest-rated gyms in the LA area. For a brand like Equinox, it's quite surprising to see such disregard for a balanced workout environment. I sincerely hope they take note of these issues and take the necessary steps to rectify them.

Elnaz has been an absolute delight to work with! She has been extremely professional, courteous and welcoming!

I have been to multiple gyms and can conclude Elnaz’s service is second to none!

Just what I needed. Balanced acai bowl, well made by happy humans.
2 Lane lap pool. Good culture. Great views. One of my favorite Equinox locations.

Great environment to improve your personal health

Equinox Century City sets a high standard for excellence offering convenient locations and good value for the amenities.

While it does not have the most amenities of all Equinox clubs; I appreciate the Executive plan which includes laundry service for $700 initiation and my grandfathered total monthly rate of $350 per month. Not having to bring in your own gym clothes is a total game changer.

Situated in the improved Westfields mall is generally a plus and in some ways compliments the mindfulness aspect. Have yet to try the spa therapy or personal training but I imagine it would be A-tier. My experience with the staff is great and I think they are all polite and professional.

Opportunities:
Executive membership used to mean they offer complimentary valet service.
Some group classes would be nice if they were also offered towards the end of the week
Outdoor area is nice but lacks outlets to charge laptop
Would be awesome if eqx offered cold plunge and massage chairs

I have a California all access pass and apparently this is one of those elite locations that you have to pay extra for. That’s fine, but I didn’t know that and recently moved and was considering upgrading my membership to use this one. They wouldn’t give me a free one day pass to try it out. And honestly, doesn’t look that different or better than the regular clubs. Horrible customer service!

The staff are fantastic, the facility is good and equipment is nice, but the hours, in particular on weekends are a joke! 6pm regularly with reductions to 4pm on holiday weekends. 3 stars for the terrible hours alone unfortunately.

I do want to call out exceptionally good positive service from Brian Holtby. He has consistently gone out of his way to help with any questions I have and to help with the membership any way he can. Five stars for Brian!

My daughter and I have been destination members (century city since December 2018) and we have repeatedly put requests for an additional class to be added on Friday evenings with an instructor other than the present one on the schedule but have been given weird excuses by the management in general and the result being we seldom use this location for our workouts as their class schedule and instructor level is not equinox standards.
