The review that does the tour for you
Someone in February 2022 wrote the floor plan out so you don't have to guess. Translated from Spanish: "The gym has three floors. The first is reception, several massage cubicles and a tanning bed. On the second are the bathrooms, the aerobics room and the spinning room. On the third is the entire bodybuilding area, with machines to work the whole body, dumbbells, bars and cardio. Some of the weight machines are old, however they work perfectly. An update was recently made with the lower-limb training machines." That last part is what I trust most - a 5-star reviewer who volunteers that some machines are old is more useful than ten people saying "great gym." They then price it honestly: "in line with the service, so it cannot be considered expensive or cheap." When did you last read a five-star that admitted the gear was dated?
What it is
Nuevo Gimnasio Argentino sits on Avenida Cabildo in Buenos Aires, at 4.3 from 135 ratings. It's a full three-floor commercial gym - weights, cardio, aerobics, spinning, plus massage cubicles and a tanning bed on the ground floor. A member from December 2024 backs the layout: "very well-equipped, spacious, and has a great atmosphere. I've been training there for years." Years, not days. That's the kind of tenure that makes a review worth more.
Where the voices agree
Two things come up more than once: the place is well-stocked, and the instructors help. A January 2026 reviewer singles out the afternoon instructor by name for personalized coaching, and an April 2026 review echoes the same name and the same word - attentive. When two independent visitors months apart praise the same coach for the same thing, that's a pattern, not a fluke. Cleanliness gets a nod too from a January 2026 five-star: "everything works perfectly, and the place is very clean."
What the average measures
At 135 ratings the 4.3 is a real, earned number, not a small-sample wobble. The written reviews line up with it - solid, affordable, a little worn in places, friendly staff. Nobody's calling it a luxury club, and nobody's calling it a dump. That's a gym doing its job.
What's missing
Prices. Several reviews say it's affordable or "some of the most affordable prices in the area," but not one gives a figure. The listing points to an Instagram page rather than a website with a rate card, so you'll have to ask. The posted hours are Monday to Friday 7:30 to 22:00 and Saturday 9:00 to 13:00, with no Sunday listed - confirm that if weekends matter to you.
Who it's not for
If you need the newest machines on the market, note the honest warning: some of the weight equipment is old, even if it works. And if a spotless boutique feel is your thing, this is a busy, multi-floor workhorse, not a design showpiece.
