Nearly all class instructors are excellent! Class diversity is great! I have enjoyed the classes and most members are very courteous and considerate in the equipment room. But the lady staff in the locker room was so scary— yelling at me for not knowing the pool on Friday ended half an hour earlier (I smiled at that first yelling and said thank you to her) and yelling again 2 minutes later while I was naked, showering (which got me scared). The second yelling was about why I didn’t hear the announcement about the gym closing earlier. I have been going to this gym for five months but this was at most the second to my husband and I swam on Friday. And there was another member who was swimming until 9 pm. There was a male staff cleaning before then but he didn’t tell us that the pool closes at 8:30 pm Fridays. We didn’t hear any announcement at the pool. I was trying to be understanding at the first yelling but the second yelling while I was naked was too much — I was trying to explain to her that I really didn’t know and didn’t hear the announcement. But she was so mad :( I guess

This gym is a great place to stay motivated and active. The facility is clean, organized, and has a wide variety of equipment for different workouts. The trainers are friendly, supportive, and always ready to give helpful advice. I enjoy the positive and energetic atmosphere here. It makes working out more enjoyable and helps me stay focused on my fitness goals. 💪

Equinox Sports Club DC is the best gym in the area. The group classes are great, particularly the schedule and instructors. I’ve been working with Caroline, a fantastic trainer, and she’s already helped me meet and exceed my fitness goals. She helped me get stronger and improve my form. I love this gym and highly recommend for everyone!

Equinox Sports Club Washington, D.C. is simply not worth its premium price. The experience here falls far short of what one would reasonably expect from a so-called “luxury” or “wellness-oriented” club. The facilities feel dated, the overall atmosphere lacks refinement, and there is nothing distinctive enough to justify the cost - especially when compared with truly upscale wellness clubs emerging in major cities around the world. This location does not meaningfully align with the image Equinox promotes elsewhere. Rather than incremental updates, this club would require a complete rethink - or relocation into a modern space - to meet the expectations of its price point. That’s unfortunate, because Washington, D.C. would genuinely benefit from a more innovative, thoughtfully designed, and truly high-end wellness club.

I was able to access this gym for my workouts while staying at the Ritz Cartlon that is adjacent. The area was clean the front desk staff was very kind and polite. Some of the trainers seemed snobbish and unwelcoming. The layout is awkward as the main gym is on the second. I wasn't aware of until ended my workout downstairs. Pros: Front desk staff is pleasant TRX suspension training apparatus are available Lots of treadmills High ceilings Cable systems Towels available Pre moistened wipes Access with stay at Ritz-Carlton (restrictions apply based on your room) Cons: Poor layout Mean looking trainers who don't greet guests
