Visited on a Thursday evening around 2230 and made it in time for a sound bath session in the dry…read moresauna. Totally unexpected, but welcoming. Been to a handful of gay saunas/bath houses around the globe and this is by far the best in terms of lay out, amenities, and cleanliness. I want to emphasize the cleanliness though...like there are people constantly cleaning; enough so that I noticed there wasn't scaling accumulating in the pool or mold anywhere and there was a hint of chlorine in the air (to me that's pretty sanitary). There are guys in all shapes, sizes and ages from all over Europe and everyone speaks English (out of respect, at least try to assimilate). However, I do want to point out that I was one of the five colored guys there out of probably 50 guys; take that however you want. There are showers scattered everywhere so if you need to wash off after 'anything' it's easy to find. The layout is pretty cool as well. Upon entry, you collect your towel and slippers and head up to the clean and open locker room. Once undressed and in a towel, you head down a separate stairway to the bar and patio area. Continue down the stairway to the basement and that's where everything is at. I totally recommend this place and will visit again when I have the chance. Last thing to mention, there's a very popular Giro stand out front if you're hungry.

It is a beautiful and fun sauna with beautiful guys from all over the world. However at this time…read morevaccine cards from the USA are not accepted just the ones that they issue in EUROPE; maybe sometime in the future the cards from outside EUOPE will be accepted but the sauna in DUBLIN , IRELAND. is accepting vaccination cards from all over the world. It is a great sauna to have fun particularly over the weekends after the bars ,lots of guys to play with and the Irish guys are a lot of fun.

This is a beautiful indoor pool facility that was recently restored. There are two large pools -…read morethe largest is kept at around 28c/82f and the smaller large pool (which is still quite big) is kept just below bathwater warmth - it's REALLY warm and you don't have to get used to the water temperature at all. There is a schedule for open swim time for the public on their website. It's around 5€ to use the pool. There are separate locker/changing rooms for men and women. Each locker room has hair dryers (1€) and lockers where you get a key in exchange for a 1€ coin that you get back, so remember your coin if you want to secure anything. The locker rooms have changing tables and wooden playpen sort of things to put your baby while you change. There are swim classes at various times during the day so it's important to understand the schedule if you want to use the pool. I've enrolled in two classes. One instructor spoke only german which is understandable. Another instructor spoke german, spanish and english. The pool facility has a website but no way to do online registration so if you plan to take a class, plan to register in person, and to get there before opening time. The queues run out the door and he wait for registration is longer than an hour. During registration, their card machine wasn't working so they were only accepting cash. All in all, it's a nice big clean pool facility but they could benefit their customers by creating online registration. After all, it's 2018. The front desk staff could also use a lesson in smiling and not being so crabby.

This place is great in the winter, especially because they have certain hours when the price is…read morelower. The problem is that during those hours it is impossible to do a work-out swim. Forget lap swimming, there are no lane lines and swimmers pretty much have to stop at each side of the pool to plan how to criss cross their way to the other side. And the late night cheap swim seems to also be the make-out-in-the-pool spot and the get-sexual-favors-in-the-corner-of-the-pool times. I haven't gone during the normal hours but if you are here as a tourist and want to see the beautiful architecture, go during the day. It is certainly worth seeing. The sauna is also affordable and charming with the old tiles, but I went on a mixed (male and female) day that was a total sausage party. Honestly, I don't care that the majority were dudes, but why they all seemed to be doing yoga moves that required spreading their legs as far as possible in the air has always baffled me. Not too pleasant when the sauna is so packed that the guy behind you is dripping on your back! For a more pleasant mixed sauna, I recommend liquidrom or this one really cool, smaller Russian owned sauna in Friedrichschain (will review soon!).

This sauna is one of the cheapest I've found so far. We went on a Sunday evening in January. I…read moredon't know if it was because it was a Sunday or cheap or the great reviews on yelp, but it was crowded! The facility is very nice, clean, and stylistic. The garden is beautiful, but I'm sure it would be prettier in the Spring. There are two dry saunas, a large steam sauna, a plunge pool, two "resting/sleeping" rooms, a tanning bed (solarium), a couple massage rooms, a mini bar that sell alcoholic and non-alcoholic beer and other fruit juices. Most other saunas require a ten euro deposit for the key/chip for the lockers. Here they don't. They are very trusting and they seem to work on the honesty system. The entrance is relatively open and you have to pay at the bar. It's a little bit of a maze when you first arrive, but once you are familiar with the layout it's very manageable. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Yes it's a mixed sauna for men and women... and you gotta go in Berlin style... no bathing suits. Loved it... except like I mentioned, it was too crowded.

Low-key, no frills, non pretentious sauna. It was pretty packed when I went (it was a Friday…read moreafternoon) -- it seems to be a favorite for locals! The quiet room was a bit smelly and didn't feel so relaxing. The beer selection at the bar was good. They offer affordable, good quality massages, I got one and it was very relaxing! The little garden outside is nice. I am not sure if I would go back because of how crowded it was last time, but it would be worth checking out during a non-peak time.

You'll know you've fully been indoctrinated into Germany once you can say you've been to a nude…read moresauna--and actually say you like it. It's winter, it's freezing, you can't feel your toes. Go to the sauna! This one was close to my flat--it's a bit bizarre to get to the sauna part. I wondered around what looked to be a hospital for awhile. I finally found an elevator, stumbled down a low-lit hallway, and found an unmanned desk. I eventually found the guy, bought a day pass (I can't remember how many Euro, but it wasn't outrageously expensive) and checked in. Once inside, there is, eh hem, lots of nudity, giant showers, steam rooms and saunas. They also have lounge chairs where you can hang out after, read a book or listen to some music.

Nice architecture. The pool size is 50m. Unfortunately it is very shallow on one end which makes…read morenot so good for swimming.
