Steamworks sauna reviews

For those looking to hook up with men, Steamworks is heaven on earth. But if you’re looking for a good sauna, abandon hope all ye who enter here!

Steamworks is a massive cruise bathhouse in the heart of downtown Toronto’s Church and Wellesley district. And I perform mean massive. Folks at Toronto Sauna got lost twice. Men were lining up for half an hour all night drawn-out to get in. It’s strictly gay or for straight guys like these two:

Being a first-timer, staff at Steamworks were content to give us the “tour”.

A very affable and informative “Peter” walked us through the place. Steamworks is open 24/7/365 and has an occupancy of 300 people…possibly more but their head count reaches that on Fridays and Saturdays with usually around 100 guys in the place at any one time. Toronto is the largest of Steamworks’ 5 North American clubs (Chicago clocks in at number two).

The club is built for shelter but not necessarily anonymity. There’s a big line-up on Saturdays and a double door system to prevent whackos or drugged up clown

Steamworks Chicago

Probably the Best Sauna in the USA

While the USA doesn't have many great saunas, this one stands out. Not only does it get more people than most gay saunas (its right in the "gayborhood" of Chicago) but its huge and well-maintained. On the ground floor you have lockers, a pleasant clean indoor pool/jacuzzi, and steam room. The second floor is probably the busiest, with two suckatoriums / slurp ramps with elevated gloryholes, as well as a sling area, gloryhole cabins, and several dozen private rooms for rent. On the third floor, you have a full-size gym with well-maintained equipment, another suckatorium with raised gloryholes, a group of gloryhole booths, and an open play area, as well as again a couple dozen rooms for rent. Guys range from twinks to guys in their 50s and everything in between. Gets busy on Friday/Saturday nights (especially when the bars close around 2am) and there's a decent crowd Sunday evenings. Havent been on weekdays so can't speak to that - but this is overall a great sauna with lots of action!
