Dukes Gym Richmond

Dukes Gym sits on Murphy Street in Richmond, one of Melbourne's lively inner-eastern suburbs just across the river from the CBD. It's built its reputation on a quality, community-minded training environment — the kind of gym where members feel looked after rather than lost in an anonymous chain.

The appeal is that combination of good facilities, genuine coaching and a welcoming atmosphere, in a convenient inner-city location. For locals across Richmond and the inner east who want more than a swipe-card workout, it's become a trusted place to train, with a loyal following to show for it.

A 4.9 rating from nearly 700 reviews is an exceptional result and a strong sign of a well-run gym with a satisfied, committed membership. Memberships, class schedules, facilities, opening hours and pricing vary, so it's worth checking current details and getting in touch directly before you go — particularly if you're after casual or visitor access, a specific class or program, or want to look over the gym before committing to a membership.
