Absolutely impeccable gym. Check-in was fast and easy. Great facilities and a good ambience. The only issue was the parking. There were no spaces when we arrived so we drove down the hill and found a space (free at the weekend, not sure what you do in the week). I would 100% train here again.
University of Sussex Falmer Sports Complex says:
Many thanks Sam for your positive comments always appreciated and yes sorry about the parking it is limited sadly based on the facilities it caters for. However it sounds like you found our oveflow parking which can be found via this link http://www.sussex.ac.uk/sport/facilities . Thanks again for your feedback and hope to see you back again soon Sussexsport Team

great gym - car parking and availability of spaces is the only issue
University of Sussex Falmer Sports Complex says:
Thanks Thomas for the feedback and yes you are right car parking is an issue especially when we have matches on. To note we do have an overflow car park at the bottom of the hill which i respect is a slight walk however it would help take the stress of finding a place each time when we are very busy. thanks for your continued support of sussexsport

All good in gym - just outside in car park that isn’t so good as no spaces most days, no telling best time to go. Facilities at Falmer sports has grown over the years but the tiny little car park hasnt
University of Sussex Falmer Sports Complex says:
Thanks Thomas for the feedback and yes sadly the car parking is limited however there is parking around 10 mins away at the bottom of Pavilion Road if happy to walk up the hill. Thanks for your continued support of Sussexsport Sussexsport Staff Team

Good range of equipment - plenty of squat racks, bumper plates, several cable machines. It was insanely cold in one of the s/c rooms when I visited - colder than outside (and it was a really cold day!). To the point that it was uncomfortable to be in there. You have to pay for parking (£2.50)
University of Sussex Falmer Sports Complex says:
Thanks Bella for the positive feedback and sorry to hear about being too cold; there are heaters in all the rooms so please do let our staff know and we will ensure they are switched on in future. There is a charge for parking sadly weekdays 9-5pm only which is controlled by the university. Thanks again for your review Sussexsport Staff Team

Great gym but as said before car parking bad. Went in the afternoon & car park rammed, inc 2 coaches. I managed to put car in a ditch clearly off the road and out the way but got £30 car parking ticket although i paid car parking for my spot in the ditch, not impressive
University of Sussex Falmer Sports Complex says:
Sorry Thomas for your experience sadly car parking is at a premium on campus based on the student population increasing over the last few years. Wednesday afternoons are particularly busy being a sports day on campus. One option on busy days is to use the car parks listed in the link below which although are a slight walk do mean more opportunity to find a parking space www.sussex.ac.uk/sport/facilities Sorry again for any inconvenienced caused and thanks for your continued support
