Midtown Le Sporting Club Sanctuaire

The management with Jean Benoît and François Leduc was a catastrophe, very unfriendly, after 8 years going with all my family, paying vip lockers and a lot of extras, I decided to quite because the rudeness of the staff and the management, they just told me ok you can leave LOL very professional !!! There is much better places in Montréal that they value customers.

⁵⁄₅ for the gym. Hands down the best gym in the city; quality equipment, clean, and not too busy. The free indoor parking is also a big plus, especially for winter. I like the fact that the weight room always has a trainer present to help you if you have any questions or looking for a spot. The Midtown is the most complete gym experience in Montréal.
Concerning the Midtown Bistro/​Restaurants, the food is average and the service is awful — but I don’t blame them, who goes to a gym to eat. If you looking for gains and you about that life, dont eat a salad… there’s a McDonald’s a few blocks down.

Midtown athletic club considered a prestigious club in Quebec. I have to agree with the fitness classes. Great spinning class! A must try. The weight training and tennis courts are a pleasure to use.
However my review is mainly based on my experience with the café and good service.
There is a beautiful out door area to have a bite and take a dip in the sauna. I don’t know why a prestigious club would have dirt scum bobbles in the water. You just feel like running in to the shower after going in. Can’t say it was a relaxin experience.
Once I sat down out side for brunch, the menu was quite pricy but we are at A prestigious club and if you can afford the membership costs them paying 11.00 for two sunny side up eggs and a few fruits is fine. Now you’d expect great service right? Wrong ! It took 40 min to get out order and the place was empty. Then once we finally got the meal. I can’t say anything about the food itself. It was sunny side up eggs hard to mess that up and the fruits were fresh. The bread was multigrain, maybTu pense que j ai pas de peine moi? Que je n ai pas de sensibilité? Pourtant tu commence a me connaitre et a savoir comme je suis une personne sensibele that why the meal was an extra 5.00 ;)
Having been in the pool and wearing a bathing suit I asked for more coffee and when she poured it, she didn’t both moving or taking the cup. She poured the coffee me, not a drop it was a lot! On my leg and foot. All I got was a bag of ice and the she avoided to come back to offer anything else. The kicker is I got the bill with out any compensation. Wow I have to say the service here stinks! You mess up you fix it!
Poor service and hight price = fail

Club staff is so rude, and provided no customer service at all.
Beautiful club with horrible service. Very disappointed:(
Not friendly to children, although selling family membership. Pool always not available for kids, only 3 hours per week. Daycare for kids never open, and workers there are not professionals, not safe… Don’t leave your stuff, it will be stolen:(
About food, had 2 times gastro, after eating there:(

Je suis membre au Sanctuaire depuis près de 10 ans et considère le club comme plus qu’un club sportif, c’est un véritable milieu de vie. Ses infrastructures haut de gamme, la variété des activités offertes, les vestiaires et la grande terrasse font clairement du Sanctuaire le meilleur club sportif à Montréal.
Je retranche toutefois une étoile en raison de lacunes que je considère mineures mais frustrantes. Entre autres, la mauvaise gestion de réservation de terrains de tennis (aucun suivi pour les membres qui réservent et né se présentent pas, ce qui rend l’accès aux terrains très difficile), la mauvaise gestion du restaurant du club (service et menu grandement à améliorer) et l’absence d’un système de numéro de membre pour payer à l’intérieur du club (système très fréquent dans les club privé, notamment au MAA).

I have been a member here for 2 years. I just dropped my membership this month. First, let me tell you the installations are the best in Montréal. A nice classy gym with a huge terrasse. I gave 4 stars because the management is clearly lacking vision: you always have to carry money around, they don’t assign you a member code to make purchases at the restaurant or the spa. The service at the restaurant as been very poor for the last 2 years. Their sport shakes are ridiculously pricy (10 $ for a shake?), which is quite bad for a sport center. Tennis courts are the nicest in Montréal and they have nice showers. Overall, it is a nice club but it’s very pricy.

Je participe régulièrement aux rencontres Yulbiz. Celle d’hier avait lieu au Midtown Le Sporting Club Sanctuaire. L’établissement est certainement apprécié par ses membres qui s’y entraînent mais j’ai été déçu par la salle de réception où avait lieu notre activité. L’éclairage y était assez sombre pour qu’un collègue compare le lieu à un salon funéraire. Par ailleurs, pour un lieu qui reçoit des gens d’affaires, j’ai trouvé cela amateur de né pouvoir uniquement payer comptant et sans remise d’une facture.
