Was your phone call answered?
Hone is the best gym in the city—all the weightlifting equipment you need, for an incredible price. And the staff onsite are very friendly.
4 stars though, not 5. Why?
The one shortcoming: You absolutely should NOT expect grade “A” customer service if you contact the company. Any email to the gym will get a short, cold, one line reply—as if whoever is handling that email account absolutely despises their job.
Zero professionalism from whoever handles the account. Lacking even the most BASIC c… – show
ustomer service skills. No “hello”, no “thank you”, no identification of who you’re speaking to—how does the owner not recognize how amateurish this looks?
It’s really not a big deal, since there’s rarely a need to contact them…but it’s worth mentioning.

The best gym in the city! Located conveniently on the Danforth. You can't go wrong. The staff here are very knowledgeable about the body so if your interested in a personal trainer you won't find any better. They always keep a clean and safe environment. If you wanna go to Equinox but don't have the money for a $200/month membership....you come here!

I surely had (and continue to have) a great share of positive experiences. The team is super friendly, professional, open minded, and most importantly, humble. Moreover, the two male personal trainers that I worked with were incredibly respectful, sensitive, and professional. I even recommended this place to my co-workers and they love it! I hope you join them as well! :D xoxo

The people that work at this location are what make it so great. The trainers actually care about you and take the time to understand your needs. I have worked with Annia for quite some time and she has helped me get back in shape and actually maintain my progress.

As for mask wearing, if you don't want to wear a mask while working out, don't go to the gym, plain and simple. The staff are doing their best to abide by regulations and by-laws that have been put in place that they have no control over. Be gentle to them, this is a stressful time for everyone. If you can't follow the rules, go home and stop being a Karen.

Best place in the area for work out. The staff is very friendly and professional. The space is small but it has big windows, it’s airy, not crowded, the equipment is new, and it's the most affordable nearby. I used to assist the group classes with Annia prior to lock down and I love them!! She is an exceptional trainer and makes the working out to much fun. I highly recommended it!

Small but mighty! What the Danforth Hone location lacks in size, it makes up for in personality. There are some true shining stars on staff here who care deeply about their clients and always do their best to make you feel welcome. The space is modestly sized, with equipment on three levels. I've had memberships at multiple gyms on the Danforth, however Hone is my favourite. I've never had to wait for equipment, and I've even introduced new machines into my workouts! I've seen huge improvements… – show

— The personal trainer «Annia» is the best trainer that I have ever had. I highly recommend you try her out. Best money I have spent. I had a back injury last year that prevented me from walking. She helped me build up my core to where I can safely do dead lifts of other heavy exercises.
— Good variety of equipment
— Good lighting and large windows. Some other gyms are dark.
— Good air circulation. Some other gyms smell.
— With covid, there are few people in the gym. No waiting for equipment… – show
— I have never needed to lineup to get into the gym, I go at 10am so your mileage may vary
Overall, I highly recommend.

I was training here for a year prior to lockdown and always felt welcome at this gym, and the group classes hosted by Annia in the evenings were excellent. I also trained with Annia personally at the gym at least once a week throughout this year and she is phenomenal. Annia is an excellent trainer and she helped push me towards my fitness goals. Could not recommended her and this location more.

After zero follow up on behalf of the business regarding closures and opens, they made it clear that for the almost 5 full months of closures, they would be taking no membership changes whatsoever. I received zero communication the gym had even reopened (I had to check the website), but Hone decided they were entitled to begin arbitrarily charging my card, despite not walking into the facility since end of Feb. When I brought it to the customer service team, I received an email back from a rando… – show
m person, not even signed but «sent from an iphone» that they were only refunding me $20 of the $50 they took, and said I still needed to provide 45 days to cancel. TAKE YOUR MONEY ELSEWHERE to a facility that (like every other in the area/ city) didn't resume or charge a membership until the customer re-initialized. I hope my money keeps you afloat, you will need it with practices like this.

I signed up for a trial membership without realizing my credit card would be charged at the end (I admit this was my mistake for entering that information). I didn't end up using the trial and still have never stepped foot in any of the locations. When I realized what had happened and attempted to resolve the issue I was ignored and continued to be charged. When Covid happened I was told I would have to wait until they reopened. In May I sent another email requesting that someone take the time t… – show
o consider my request but was denied. I waited patiently for months until they reopened and was once again charged. Upon finally speaking with the General Manager in August I was told they would refund 2/3rds of the original charges and only then was informed about their refund policy. Had I not been ignored, been informed of their policy and had my account cancelled upon my first email, I would have gladly accepted this as reasonable. However, having had to wait this long and without so much as an apology for that wait plus continued charges, I am not only incredibly frustrated but also disappointed in the completed lack of responsibility and poor customer service.

It's decent for the price, don't think the air conditioning is on though, it gets unbearably hot while working out compared to other gyms, might cancel or switch gyms since working out indoors in immense heat is a no go

Do not come to this gym unless you want to get sick. They will force you to touch your face after every set to put a mask back on with dirty hands spreading germs to the face which is the primary cause of covid 19. They do not understand basic fitness. While you are at rest between sets your heart rate is still elevated and you need oxygen to recover which the mask prevents. This still counts as exercising. What you will find here is staff walking around telling you to put the mask back on betwe… – show
en sets — while not even giving you the chance to sanitize your hands before re applying the mask.
The bylaw for gym is to wear a mask while not exercising. They interpret this to as soon as you put the weight down, touch your mask with dirty hands and your face as well. This law is meant for masks in change rooms and entry/front desk not in the fitness areas. This gym is just pure dangerous and do not come here unless you enjoy spreading germs to your face after every set. On the contrary, you can keep the mask on for your full workout which is extremely dangerous and also can cause gum disease, which in turn causes heart disease and death. Its called mask mouth, look it up.
Would give negative stars if I could.

If I could give this company negative stars. I would. From day 1 of the pandemic there has been LIMITED communication — all we received were posted and quickly deleted instagram posts. It took weeks to receive an «official email» and the instagram comments were limited so you couldn't even ask questions about charges and reopening. The same thing happened during stage 3. You have to be following their account for any info, and even then they have posted/deleted at least 3 times this week. The in… – show
formation changes each time. They keep telling us to email info@honefitness.com and yet no one has responded. Many of us want to suspend or cancel our memberships as we don't feel this gym is putting the right safety measures in place. You also have to wait in line to use the gym, which is wildly inconvenient and unrealistic. The fact that we have yet to receive an official company email or any form of communication regarding our memberships is SHADY to say the least. I have lost all trust in this business and it's snake of an owner «Sam»
There is nothing on their website that mentions cancellation fees and when I first signed up, I received only a copy of my receipt. And yet some on social media have said they are charging 2 months worth for cancellations. Don't waste your money here, spend a little more and go to a gym that is legit.

The price is good but gym is understaffed and needs to establish basic norms of gym etiquette. Too many members (men in particular) fail to wipe down equipment, replace their weights etc. Gym could start by posting signs near machines and at entrance regard such basic gym etiquette.

Great New few month old gym on Danforth near Pape. However I would like it if they as requested moved the TV's from behind the fire suppression pipe in front of the upstairs treadmills. The owner mentioned they would have the manager look at it, then nothing further. This was several months ago now, and through a rep soon after opening. In addition to unlimited tanning at some locations saunas would be nice.

One of the best gyms I've been to. The staff are always extremely friendly and courteous. This gym has ample equipment and cardio machines. No matter what hour you go it's never too busy, and the clientele is all very respectful of one another. I've been to Goodlife and Equinox, and honestly, this gym has everything you need at a much lower price point. Keep it up, Hone!

I would rate this 5 stars but one thing bothers me, no one re-racks their weights (dumbells in the wrong locations too)! I don't want to come in and have to remove peoples weights everytime, there are signs but no one cares. Staff should do more about it too. But otherwise, great equipment, super clean facility and not over crowded (removed another star, so sick of people's lack of care to re-rack, staff needs to deal with it…)
