It’s a clean, safe, welcoming environment. Rob is a great person to get your membership from! He is very knowledgeable and personable. Checks in on you, and makes sure you are enjoying your membership. A handful of the trainers are very friendly and welcoming in the gym.

I have not been to other Equinox locations. But, this particular location seems to be nothing more than a over priced Planet Fitness. I found the front staff to be snobby and I found some of the clientele too upper class for me. The place was clean and I never had to wait for a machine. But, this place is not worth the price of membership. But, I will be back here again only because I have a membership. There is no other reason to go. My advice is not to become a member for this location. Maybe other locations are better?

My body hurts so good! 😭✨🤭I am a sucker for great customer service, quality, and sincere energy; and I got nothing less of all three of these BEFORE! the very first moment I stepped foot into the Loop location. Their passion and expertise make staying motivated effortless!

Not offering daily access anymore unless you already have a membership. It makes sense...

This is a wonderful well-equipped gym. They also have a lot of new equipment to let you workout any way you want to. I will surely recommend this gym to everyone!

The maintenance team does such a great job in keeping this gym clean. Everything is always organized I dont have to look around the gym for their strength equipment. The studios are always spotless. The locker rooms are always kept tidy. Every staff member has always been courteous. Love it.

Clean and centrally located. Thats really all im looking for in a gym these days. They have pretty much every machine you would need. I have never used private training but one of these days Ill take the plunge!

Love it so far! The staff is really lovely, and your fellow patrons are super courteous. A gentleman was really chill about sharing the weight bench with me without being too friendly, and a kind young lady was cognizant that her phone was taking up space on the mat without me having to say boo. I go during a really busy time too. The ladys locker room could use more counter and mirror space (thats the only bit than can get mildly Mad Max), but overall its a nice gym experience .

Literally love this gym so much! And having Randy there just makes my workouts so much better ;) honestly though, if you want a place to start at your first gym, Chuze is most definitely the place to go. Its not snobby or competitive, everyone keeps to themselves. Its awesome ! And the staff is incredible !

Great location and great staff. Really cannot say better things. I normally use 3 equinox locations (highland park, 900 N Michigan and the Loop) but this is by far my favorite (assuming I am not swimming that day as they dont have a pool).Only ding could be hours are not as good as the other locations with is to be expected given how the Loop dies on weekends and holidays.

They charge $50 for a one time guest pass. Didn’t bother asking if I wanted to do a trial. Nice equipment but tiny space.

Best gym you can ever find. You literally dont need anything but the clothes on your back when you workout. THey provide towels, shampoo, conditioner, razors! And much more. Friendly staff. Love it. Your truly pampered here.

We got the gym pass from the Talbott Hotel, and the space there is great. The rooms are split into sections so that you never feel like you are working out in one giant room. The only thing that is they dont give you slippers...so bring your own.

Equinox has everything you want in a high-end gym: the equipment is in excellent condition, the place is very clean, staff is helpful and friendly, and there are exciting exercise classes offered. I recommend Equinox to anyone working in the loop that is looking for an experience.

Pros: Location is very convenient. The place is super clean, and the staff is always friendly. The machines are pretty modern and I have very rarely had to wait for cardio equipment. There are also plenty of free weights, so there is almost never a wait for those either. The spinning classes are better than average, but not the best Ive ever attended. You can sign up for spinning bikes online, which is convenient. The locker room is relatively nice and has amazing hairdryers (Super Solano).Cons: I absolutely hate their Equinox-branded shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel. HATE IT. Its so terrible that I have to bring my own products everyday instead. I also dont care for the classes. They are not very high intensity, and they are usually taught by overly bubbly instructors with bad 80s style aerobics music. The classes also get very crowded. Even if you arrive early to claim some space, youll probably get pushed over into a tiny corner spot. My last complaint is that the weekend hours are limited. However, that is not all bad because you can use another Equinox when the Loop location is closed.All in all, Equinox is somewhere between okay and good, but probably isnt worth the $120/mo that I paid (and that was with a company discount).

Oh Equinox, you are closed on Sunday at this location. The space is cramped. There is no pool. Yet you still strive to extract $150/mo out of suckers? And your products are lame. This is like eating at Applebees in the Loop, as far as gyms go, but paying double Applebees prices. Even FFC a few blocks over has a rooftop pool, better hours, farrrrrrr better facility, at less money. You kinda need to do a scan of your competition Equinox and clean this up -- it is a disgrace to your brand, coming from California and Texas where the facilities are actually head above. Here in Chicago, compromise central. Oh mama mia ...

On a quick business trip to Chicago, I did not want to miss out on a workout. Thus, my good old friend Equinox is there to save the day. This particular location is right in the heart of the financial district, and is great for people to sneak in a workout after work. During my visit, I decided to stop on by around 4-5pm. Surprisingly, there was not a crowd, which is always a definite plus.This location is pretty small in comparison to the other clubs in Chicago and across the country, but thats understandable considering the location. The first floor is dedicated to the juice/salad bar, front desk, and the little offices for the membership advisors. The second floor is where youll find your locker rooms, weight/cardio area, and your dance/spinning studios. Right off the bat, I realized that although the workout area is small, the locker rooms are quite spacious. There are plenty of lockers and changing room to accommodate everyone, and there is also a sauna and steam room that some smaller Equinoxs do not have. On the downside, there are only about 8 shower stalls, so I can imagine that during peak hours, people will sometimes have to wait to use the shower.For the weight room, there is pretty much all you need here that youd find at any other club. When I was there, I did not have to wait for any machine, so the lack of extra machines was not an issue to me. There are plenty of cardio machines, and of course, they are right next to the amazing eucalyptus towels! On the downside, there arent a whole lot of free weights, and I couldnt find any kettle balls when I was trying to get my workout in.All in all, this is a great location if you work in the area, or just looking for a quick workout. Id definitely check with your work if you can squeeze out a corporate discount with Equinox cause any saving is a good saving. Although this location is small, it isnt super crowded, and has just about 80% of all the things youd find at a full fledged club. Equinox is Equinox, and in the end, there is nothing that will sway me to another club. I love Equinox!
