About this place Steamworks Berlin

Steamworks Berlin is the largest and most comprehensively equipped gay sauna in Berlin, part of the international Steamworks chain that includes locations in Chicago, Vancouver and other cities. The Kreuzberg facility occupies a large footprint in Eisenbahnstraße and provides the full range of modern gay sauna facilities: a heated swimming pool, Finnish dry sauna, Turkish steam room, gym, maze of darkrooms, private cabins (by hourly rental), a lounge area, and a café operating throughout the day. The 24-hour Friday and Saturday operation makes Steamworks the default after-hours destination when the clubs close — it is common to find queues forming at 6am on Saturday and Sunday mornings as club-goers transition from Berghain or other venues. The weekday operation is significantly quieter, drawing a more local, less tourist-oriented clientele. The Kreuzberg location — easy access from the U1 Görlitzer Bahnhof — puts it adjacent to the bar and club scene rather than separated from it. Entry is standard for Berlin: a locker or cabin included in the entry fee, with towel available for rent. The facilities are regularly maintained to a standard that justifies the pricing.

After reading so many positive reviews saying is the best sauna and having visited 8 saunas in Europe, I decided to take the chance and experience Boiler by myself. This is just my opinion as an experienced traveller /visitor /sex tourist. The positive things about this sauna are the friendliness and politeness of the staff . It is also relatively clean and spacious . The sauna is really good and the relaxing areas are comfortable. You can buy drinks and snacks. On the other hand , if you are willing to visit during the weekend you will have to wait in the queue for at least two hours before entering which can be frustrating and energy draining at the same time. The majority of fhe clients are over 40 ( very few under) which is not a bad thing in a way but if you are young and want to attract the same you might get disappointed. It is not exclusively a cruising sauna as it seems most of the clients are spending their time in the relaxing areas, jacuzzi,smoking areas socializing and looking each other. Most of the fun happens in the steam room and in the dark room( where faces are not clearly seen ) but do not expect very intense fun . I went on a Friday night stayed for 6 Hours had some fun but noticed that the majority of the men there were just there for the spa not for the fun. If you are going for the hammam/spa/jaccuzi then you will enjoy it but if you are going just for fun have in your mind that it is not exclusively fun oriented. There are still opportunities for fun but it is not that intense like other saunas I visited in the past. Will I return? Well...I don't know...maybe yes maybe no... I give this sauna 3 stars and I don't believe it's the best in Europe when it comes to cruising. hmmmm I forgot to mention it is very expensive

Pretty easy, no issues like some of the reviews here suggest. I am not personally into cruising but enjoyed the insight into that aspect of queer culture. But I'm leaving the review because after having tried some other saunas in Berlin the jacuzzi and steam rooms here actually rate pretty highly on their own. You genuinely have more privacy in the jacuzzi here than the hot tub in Vabali lmao. Anyway, support queer businesses

First time ever, as a tourist. Me and my boyfriend came to Berlin on vacation, and despite the long line to get in, it was totally worth it! Total relaxation and tons of fun—saunas, hot tub, cabins, etc.—all super clean with showers and sanitizers everywhere. Everyone we met was really chill and friendly. The inside bar was great. Highly recommend. We had a great time. We’ll definitely be back. Thanks Boiler ❤️

This is far the best gay sauna I've been in my life! Crowded with men for any preferences, clean, friendly staff, free to have sex wherever I wanted, 2 dry saunas, 2 steam rooms, jacuzzi, friendly guys talking to each others, resting rooms, drinks on reasonable prices...what else could I ask for? I was a bit concerned about the negative comments I read here but I'm so happy to have ignored them and went to have my own conclusions. If ever in Berlin, for sure I'll be back. Well done team!

Best sauna in Europe. I've been there like 10 times and I've had a good time every time and felt at home. Nice staff, super clean.
