My experience at Franco's over the last 3 months has been quite lovely! Everything you would hope to expect from a gym - clean facilities, showers, lockers, a sauna, an outdoor patio - and more. What made my experience even more vibrant, something you can't really quantify is the energy of the community, both staff and other members. Anytime I needed help someone was there and they assisted me with positive energy, and I even made some new connections, which is always plus :)

The facilitates and equipment at this gym are nice, however I would definitely not recommend seeking out their training services. I called a month in advance to schedule something, was finally able to schedule an appointment with one of the trainers after about 3 weeks of back and forth and trouble getting a response. The trainer then canceled the night before due to sickness. This was understandable, but after a month of trying to see someone, still frustrating. I called Franco’s to see if I could meet with someone else, and they assured me someone would call me back the next day. It has been 3 weeks since then and nobody has contacted. I say all of this just to note how unorganized the whole training system is.

Im in town for work and needed a gym to go to so I gave this one a try with their free day pass.Only giving it stars because the gym itself is decent enough and wasn’t crowded.On another note because of the service they deserve 0 stars. When I arrived, some guy(he didn’t introduce himself so I didn’t get a name) said that when I am done he would go over pricing and everything with me for a membership. He didn’t bother to show me around, I had to ask him where is the ladies locker room. He was very stand offish. When I was done he didn’t even bother to ask me how I like the gym, go over membership pricing or anything. He just let me leave. Here we are a week later , still no follow up about joining. I wanted to give it some time to see if someone would call me, so I am here leaving a review to let you guys know if you care about being treated nicely to not go here. Cyclebar on magazine was better.

I’ve been a member at Franco’s for 5 years and I love it. I’m a mom with a hectic life and it’s my daily refuge. The members, instructors and staff are very nice and make you feel welcome. The mgr, Joey, never forgets to say hi to me when I arrive even when he’s across the gym from me. He listens and is responsive when I tell him something should be changed or fixed. I’ve been to other gyms around the country and in New Orleans and this is the only one that has felt like it’s my home away from home.

I've been a member at Franco's for about a year. It's a wonderful gym that is easy to recommend. There is a great outdoor space, plenty of machines and weights, and it never feels crowded. The trainers and staff that I have interacted with have always been very friendly and knowledgeable!

Love working out here! The trainers are great and thorough. They answer any questions I have and are very friendly and welcoming. I enjoy training with Joey and am happy with my results! Another plus is the gym has great equipment and is always clean.

Franco’s is a great gym! They have a nice weight area, a large number of treadmills etc., a great outdoor workout space and AWESOME CLASSES!! I’ve been a member of so many places over the years, from Equinox to Lifetime Fitness and I hold Franco’s right up there with them. The locker rooms might not have Kheils in the soap dispensers but their staff is superior. Every member of the team is helpful and friendly. The class instructors are terrific. The trainers are top notch. Franco’s is a real treasure in the LGD!

I would not recommend this gym to anyone, especially people who speak English as a second language and women. I was a member for three months at Franco’s and canceled my membership on the spot after having an extremely rude interaction with the general manager, Joey. On many occasions, there was no toilet paper, paper towel, or soap, and the toilets were dirty and when I told him about these issues he was always rude. While I was in the middle of exercising, he came up to me told me I was being “malicious” for complaining about the low hygiene. Sounds like I was right about the cleanliness because he says they clean the bathrooms (only!!) once a week (he said it like that’s sufficient).In addition, I felt like he and some other staff members were intentionally making me feel badly about my accent by questioning what I was saying and my words. Finally, it was often an uncomfortable place for me as a woman-- the men groan when they are exercising and, although I can’t ask for toilet paper, men can make all the noise they want.

This gym is often dirty in the bathrooms and missing soap/paper towels/toilet paper. The general manager, Joey, is very rude and has been since day one.Also, I have been to other gyms where staff do a good job of letting people know -especially men- when they are making too many moaning noises while exercising, and this is definitely not one of them. In fact, I once told a staff member I felt uncomfortable with a man moaning very loudly and he said “You think that is bad! You should hear [other staff member]!” Not helpful… For these reasons, I canceled my membership 3 months early (of a 6 month membership)

As far as high end Gyms go, Franco's has a lot of bang for your buck.Unlimited included classes with your membership.Access to other locations including A 100k sq foot location 30min away which has everything you can imagine a gym should have.Brand new/lightly used equipment with every possible attachment and accessories.Very friendly staff as well.Would recommend this gym to anyone in the Garden District area!

The staff was super friendly and inviting and I’m just in town from teas on vacation. The facility is beautiful, clean, and sanitary. They have everything you need for a solo workout or plenty of classes to jump into. I own a group training gym back home and I luv to support local businesses, they were great!

Cancelled membership but have been charge twice since. They’re saying due to a “glitch” . Will update this review if they actually remedy the situation

Franco's is a great gym. I have a background in powerlifting and I can say that this place has everything anyone needs to work out. There is an open layout downstairs with machines and racks. Upstairs, there are treadmills, stair machines, elliptical machines, and a full-size aerobics room with mats, hand weights, yoga mats, and Les Miles weight bars. The entire gym is always a comfortable temperature. The aerobics room has large fans, which can be easily turned on. The gym provides towels and sanitary wipes to clean machines and mats before/after use.The staff has always been kind and helpful to me. There is an office right at the front with a manager there almost constantly to answer any questions.Franco's is a premium gym for a premium price. It is compact, but it has everything you need to meet your fitness goals. I would highly suggest dropping by and taking a tour.
