ROME Gay Saunas 2021

Our guide to Rome Saunas

Europa Multiclub gay Sauna is the biggest and most popular of Rome’s gay bathhouses with a great diversity of visitors. Amenities here are some of the finest among gay saunas anywhere, with a mega-size Turkish bath, Finnish sauna, whirlpool, and solarium. They offer massage and internet, and a well-equipped gym, plus snacks and drinks at the EMC Cafe. Their many cabins offer plenty of nooks to get better acquainted with new friends and big-screen erotic videos get you in the mood. Open daily from 1pm to midnight and through the whole weekend without closing — so some young men use it in place of a hotel.

Two other longtime local tubs are just off Via Merulana as you walk south from the Termini area: Apollion Sauna Via Mecanate 59/A) and Mediterraneo Sauna (Pasquale Villari 3). Each has steam, dry sauna, massage, darkrooms, and its own loyal group of regulars. Out a bit further from the center. Spartacus Bear Sauna is the most recent addition to the Rome gay sauna scene and has proved very popular with bears and admirers.
