Beautiful atmosphere. Friendly staff and lots of activities. Pricey but worth it if you can afford it.

Love this gym. It had everything you will need. RICHARD is the best in the business.

I visited this club on a road trip from Maryland. I was amazed at the quality of the facility and the staff (they were super kind). The steam room was the best that I have ever experienced. My whole family had a blast (15 year old boy and 74 year old woman).

The staff is always friendly and helpful however I'm very disappointed with how often their Lifetime Cafe App is down for food ordering. I live in the building and attempt to order food almost daily. It has been down for the last month and it's never up for more than a week without it going down again. It doesn't tell you it's down until you already selected the items and are ready to place the order. Extremely frustrating...For the love of god...fix the app and I'll fix this review!

A pony tailed man screamed in my face after hitting a game winner in pick up basketball. He then proceeded to the locker room and slipped into his uniform to resume his cleaning duties. His palpable rage on the court is a telling sign for how much the staff at Life Time loathes working there, and how fed up they are dealing with the customers.

Also, way too much time spent arguing in the pick-up games. Developed varicose veins from too much standing, waiting for them to recount the score for the 100th time.

No complaints about this Gym. Well if you guys can provide all the amenities then why not "After Shave" ? just a suggestion if that matters to you.

Needs to be better maintained!!!
Printer wasn't working and everyone complained about it, so how did they fixed the issue? They just removed printer!!! Looks like a better solution. Its like a going to the car dealership to fix your car and they tell you that they just got rid of your vehicle because they can't fix or solve the issue otherwise.
I was holding up for an year to give a review and am finally doing it. So far, this facility doesn't deserve anything more then 2 stars.
Staff needs to enforce more regulations to members for walking topless!
Members need more attention!
Entire floor needs attention!
Plus classes getting canceled constantly!
Plus, they are playing F.... music at pool whole night and wont let us sleep!!!

Was visiting from Toronto and as I'm a member of one of the clubs there I decided to try it out.

Being in Manhattan, it definitely has a unique charm to it. I enjoyed the indoor pool, and while it was (understandably) small, the indoor spa, steam room, and sauna were great. I particularly enjoyed the fact that they have a cold plunge, something I haven't seen at other Lifetimes and have always missed.

The cleanliness of the club was fine, however I found that the amenities (towels, etc.) we're running quite low and the club wasn't busy so there was no reason it should have been. Besides this, I found the staff to be professional but perhaps not as welcoming as in other clubs.

While there's room to improve, I definitely recommend visiting Lifetime at Sky.

Im a new member @ Westchester for few yrs. The visit was not enjoyable at all. Way too much attitude! Could not walk in here regularly and workout without leaving disgruntled. One woman who stood out as being the most arrogant and rudest of all, get this, ends up "being" the GM.
Pathetic! I called corporate to express my discontent with the experience...guess what?
They could care less!!
I am embarrassed to be a member, however service in Westchester is top notch across the board...so I will stay where I am.

Good facilities but very misleading about contract terms. Also, for all the hassle of dealing with their management and lines at sign-in it's almost not worth going. They also charge extra for everything they can think of.

First off I just want to ask one question: were half these reviews written by people qhive been dropped on their heads as children? Yes. The staff comprised mostly of minorities is racist. Lay off the brainwashing MSM and pursuit of perpetual victimhood and use your head. The staff is racist because they didn't let a boxing champion that smelled like weed in for free?! And then the other speak of "entitlement". Its amazing the irony is lost on some of you. Gotta love this new generation of "everything a racist" and "you owe me." Get a grip other than that the only complaint of have of this place is the price for its size and the fact the pool is an extra almost 2 grand. That's highway robbery.

Tried it as a guest. Horrible. Rude and unskilled personal trainers and front desk freaks. You can get a better workout with YouTube videos and planet fitness. Based on other reviews, the personal trainers and staffs might be racist pigs. TMZ has even aired a segment with the alleged racist incident. Who would want to hire their disgusting malodorous pot smelling personal trainer?! Or be around idiots who call 911 because there's a black person. The video shows no clear and present danger to anyone!

Public humiliation of BLACK MEN/ PEOPLE should be a thing of the past, yet Life Time Athletic gym there in Manhattan just slid right on in there next to Starbucks!! Shame on you all calling the police on BLACK professional Men trying to simply workout. To add insult to injury you say it's because they (BLACK MEN) smelled like "marijuana" really! Did you all meet your black quota that particular day and decided against letting them in yet allowed a group of white guys to mosey right on through...This sucks for this gym and our society. Ownership of Life Time please show yourself and revamp your staff and make some changes. We're in 2018 people..Please don't support companies like this one.

This place was the biggest sham ever. They charged me 189.99 didn't even let me use the pool, they wanted to charge me an extra THOUSAND DOLLARS just to use the pool when I could use the pool at the garden city branch which was 30 times bigger plus I was informed I would only be paying 129 if I didn't go to sky made no sense. It hardly has any machines, no space for free weights. Only gets 2 stars because the basketball court was nice. Sham of place catch me at Garden City

An entire backpack was stolen from the locker room on January 31st. Obviously not going to return to a gym where belongings are stolen so after requesting to cancel membership, Lifetime still decides to charge an entire month's membership fee per their procedures, essentially robbing me twice. You would think that under the circumstances and after having been violated in this way that they would allow you to cancel without continuing to charge you- especially since it happened on the last day of the month- but there was no attempt to ameliorate the situation. I was told I would get a call back regarding the theft and the extra charge, and I received no call back after a week, and no help from the GM, Ioanna.

Perhaps it is an employee that is stealing members belongings and they are trying to cover it up? Either way, Life Time Athletic at Sky needs to reevaluate how they treat their paying customers, especially for a gym that claims to cater to high-end members. There are plenty of more high-end fitness centers who value their customer's security to choose from in the city, where you will not be risking your belongings each time you use the gym.

Equinox on West 50th and Columbus Circle are just a few block away, and definitely better options.

Wow, some of these reviews are brutal! I live in the Atelier next door. They took our pool/gym, so if anyone should complain, it should be me :)

I loved this facility since the day it opened. I am a member here and also an Executive member of Equinox on Columbus Ave.

Favorites: Lockers on the gym floor so that you don't have to use the locker room; Life Time Cafe; Staff; Lap pool; Makeup remover wipes; Group fitness room view; Updated equipment.

Least Favorite: Tiny showers; More crowded now that it's not brand new anymore; Huge TV screens with news. Considering the current political climate, I'd appreciate it if they'd avoid news networks.

Conclusion: I view Life Time at Sky as more of a spa-like club for light fitness than a commercial gym for a broader variety including bodybuilding. It works for me personally due to my living next door, being a member of another gym (to balance it out) and the great price.

It is lacking a bit as far as equipment, but the people there make this the best gym I've ever been to. Everyone is kind. Ryan is great. He gets things done. Mari, DeShawn, Stephanie, Joe, Danielle... I am sorry I left people out but everyone there is terrific. They all stop to talk to you and they keep the place immaculate at all times. It deserves a perfect rating.

I think the gym is fantastic. Yes, it lacks the breadth of equipment and space as some people already pointed out, but the overall gym is great. It's never as crowded as Equinox (literally, you have people stepping over you there). The trainers are fantastic. Class selection is good. Can use a bit of tweaking, but in general, they have good selection. You don't really have the same snobby atmosphere as some of the other clubs in nyc.

The club is very awkward. No kids allowed and no information disclosed.. I was very embarrassed to be approached by a team member and inform that I had to leave because of my kids. I love my home club in Framingham, MA.
