About Life Time
Life Time Bergen County is an upscale athletic country club offering a range of amenities, including an expansive fitness floor, unlimited yoga and studio classes, eucalyptus steam rooms, and indoor and outdoor pools. The facility is clean and well-maintained, with plenty of equipment and personal space. Members appreciate the daycare for tots, classes, and individualized attention from staff. However, some members have expressed concerns about registration policies for seniors, which they feel are restrictive and discriminatory. Despite this, the gym remains one of the best in the area, with well-spaced equipment and excellent customer service. The locker and shower areas are spotless and fully stocked, and there are many classes and resources available for seniors. While some suggest improvements like hotter saunas and a cold plunge, the overall experience is highly positive, especially for those seeking a high-quality fitness environment.
I really loved the gym and the classes at Life Time Fitness, but the Kids Academy really threw me off. My 2-year-old was often sent home for typical toddler behavior, which made it hard for me to finish my workouts. I ended up canceling my membership because I couldn’t rely on the childcare experience, even though I enjoyed everything else about the gym.
Only visited on a guest pass, but overall it was solid. There was a good amount of space, with plenty of machines, racks, and equipment - even with how crowded it was. It worked well for a one-off workout.That said, when you consider the price, the value is questionable. The bathrooms were the only negative really, space was not kept well from a quality perspective. I didn't use the pools or anything else. You’d really need to take full advantage of the amenities and services to justify the premium. Right now, I don't see the ROI with the state that it's in.
Gym is always overcrowded, parking is terrible and it’s a one way so you have to go all the way around the whole place just to exit. The bathrooms aren’t clean, the sauna has nails sticking out of the wood, towels aren’t clean. It took them two years to fix the rims and right when they fix it I’m on my way out. The pricing is simply not worth it, I’m joining drop fitness which is right down the road.
