Albany Leisure Centre, Enfield - (Near Enfield, UK)

3 /5 D Dee “ParisLondonNewYork”: I visited the leisure centre today and had a pleasant experience at the gym, which is well-equipped with numerous facilities. The pool is nicely sized for swimming laps; however, the sauna and steam room are on the smaller side. There are also some safety concerns, such as broken tiles in the steam room and a damaged bench in the sauna. Despite this, they are functioning well. Please note that you need to bring your own padlock for the lockers in the changing rooms, as the centre does not provide or sell them. As a result, I carried my belongings around. Overall, the cleanliness of the leisure centre was satisfactory. I paid £15 for a day pass, which is reasonable considering you can enjoy the amenities all day, and parking is free.

1 /5 Safa Omari: My children have been going for a year now and stay in the lower side of the pool whilst I’m watching, i had no problems but today all of a sudden they decided to change the rules and do swimming tests (I was 40 minutes into the hour session) to see if they could swim including the DEEP ends. My daughter obviously couldn’t do the deep ends and so the lady rudely said “get out” and didn’t even let my other daughter try; which still I proceeded to follow her instruction. She was rude, rolling her eyes and kissing her teeth when I told her why it changed all of a sudden, whilst she was being rude her coworker was laughing as well for no reason. Firstly I asked them why they changed the rule and which they said they changed “2 months ago” which they’re clearly lying because I’ve brought my children before and this did not happen. Secondly the staff is incredibly rude and unhelpful, I even asked for her name to complain to the manager but instead she got even more rude about why I asked for her name, she didn’t even have a name badge on. BAD STAFF!!

4 /5 S S: Very good size swimming pool. Changing rooms were clean and the main building is air-conditioned which is great. I have seen comments saying that the pool is cold. It was a great temperature today. It is not a bath or spa, and people need to be able to swim and exercise for fitness without getting too hot. Nice community atmosphere too.

1 /5 Maliha Ali: FIRE BOZ! Disgraceful, disrespectful, racist and discriminatory treatment -. My autistic (well behaved) brother has been swimming here for 1 year with no problem until this so called lifeguard comes to pose some made up policy to not swim and to only paddle in the paddling pool? Keeping in mind my brother can swim and had 2 people swimming with him. We paid for 3 tickets for 1 hour and got 20 mins of disruption and left. We’ve requested a full refund but his behaviour warrants immediate dismissal. - I will be taking this further.
