About The Mill Queenstown

The Mill Queenstown is an integrated gym, recovery and healthcare facility at 5 Tulip Lane in Remarkable Park — in its own words, more than just a gym: a place where movement, recovery, health and community come together.

The training floor spans 1,200m² of strength, conditioning and varied training zones with free weights, machines, racks and lifting platforms, plus indoor turf, mezzanine and functional areas. Outdoors there's a 40m sprint track, two lifting rigs and functional equipment. Group cycle classes run on TM Connect bikes that track your workout, and group training covers strength, agility, speed and endurance. The facility is designed for all levels, from dedicated gym-goers to complete beginners, with elite-grade testing facilities open to everyone.

Recovery gets equal billing: two 10-person traditional outdoor saunas, two Stoked cold plunge pools, a recovery room with infrared saunas and a Hyperice stack, and Normatec3 compression boots — all included in the 3.0 and 4.0 membership tiers. A cryotherapy chamber and hyperbaric chamber are available as premium advanced recovery options.

On the healthcare side, a collaborative team works under one roof: Remarkable Physios for physiotherapy, sports and remedial massage, Georgina Read Podiatry, Evolve Med's musculoskeletal specialist Dr Mornè Pienaar, Form Imaging's DEXA scanning, and pelvic health physiotherapy. Casual passes, a mobile app and a mezzanine seminar space for groups of 20–30 round out the offering.

The Mill Queenstown: Gym, Recovery and Healthcare Under One Roof at Remarkable Park

The Mill Queenstown occupies a purpose-built home at 5 Tulip Lane in Remarkable Park, and the facility's own tagline sums up the ambition: more than just a gym — a place where movement, recovery, health and community come together. It's an integrated performance hub where the gym floor, recovery spaces and a healthcare team all sit under one roof, so a single visit can cover training, treatment and a sauna session.

A Gym Built for Every Level

The indoor space runs to 1,200 square metres of strength, conditioning and varied training zones, filled with free weights, machines, racks and lifting platforms. There are indoor turf, mezzanine and functional training areas, and when the weather allows, the action moves outside to a 40m sprint track, two lifting rigs and functional outdoor equipment.

The Mill talks about "closing the divide between local and elite performance". In practice, that means the same best-in-class equipment and testing facilities offered to elite athletes are available to everyone, from dedicated gym-goers to complete beginners. Group training blends functional and high-intensity sessions covering strength, agility, speed and endurance, with TM Connect used to track your data. In the group cycle studio, music and visual effects meet the TM Connect bike — described as the world's first indoor cycling bike that tracks your workout.

Recovery Treated as Essential

Recovery is a headline pillar here, not an afterthought. The recovery membership includes two 10-person traditional outdoor New Zealand saunas, two Stoked stainless cold plunge pools, a bespoke recovery room with two Sunlighten infrared saunas and a Hyperice stack, plus two sets of Normatec3 full-leg compression boots. The stated benefits read like a recovery checklist: faster muscle repair and less soreness, better circulation and flexibility, and mental relaxation and stress relief.

The cold plunges let you choose your own intensity — pool one runs at 5–6°C, pool two at a milder 14–16°C. Beyond the standard offering sits advanced recovery: a cryotherapy chamber and a hyperbaric chamber, premium services booked separately from the recovery membership. And the message is deliberately broad — recovery isn't just for athletes, but for anyone who wants to move better, feel better and perform at their best.

Healthcare Under One Roof

The healthcare wing operates a collaborative, integrated model designed to diagnose accurately, treat effectively and improve outcomes. Remarkable Physios provides physiotherapy with specialised equipment to restore function after injury or surgery; massage therapy covers both sports and remedial work; Georgina Read Podiatry handles foot, ankle and lower limb conditions; and Evolve Med's Dr Mornè Pienaar, a musculoskeletal specialist with interests in sports and regenerative medicine, rounds out the medical side. Pelvic health physiotherapy is also offered.

For data-minded members, Form Imaging operates a DEXA scanner on site. The scan measures bone density and can flag conditions such as osteopenia or osteoporosis, while the whole-body composition scan quantifies lean muscle gains and weight loss — a scientific way for athletes and weekend warriors to track training progress.

Community, Memberships and Practicalities

The Mill leans into community as much as equipment: personalised training, group classes and shared healthcare services are framed as a support network where members motivate each other. Memberships come in 3.0 and 4.0 tiers, both of which include the recovery facilities, and a casual pass lets you drop in without committing. The Mill app on Google Play and the Apple App Store handles the digital side.

Doors open early and close late: 5am to 10pm on weekdays and 6am to 8pm on weekends, with staffed hours of 6am–8pm on weekdays and 7am–8pm on weekends. Public holidays run 6am–8pm, and the facility closes on 25–26 December and 1 January. Day passes on the 3.0 and 4.0 tiers include a towel; otherwise towels can be hired or bought at reception. A flexible mezzanine seminar space hosts groups of 20–30 for conferences and education.

Whether you're chasing a season goal, rehabbing an injury or simply want a sauna and cold plunge after work, The Mill packages the full loop — train, recover, treat — into one Remarkable Park address.
