Alexander Sauna is one of Athens' established gay saunas, operating in Metaxourgeio — a district undergoing gradual gentrification but still raw around the edges, which sets the tone. The facilities are functional: sauna, steam room, private cabins, and darkroom. Athens' gay scene concentrates around Gazi and Monastiraki, and this venue draws from both. The crowd is predominantly Greek locals — men who appreciate a familiar, no-fuss environment without tourist pricing. Athens sauna culture reflects the city's Mediterranean pace: the evenings start late and run long. Worth visiting if you're spending more than a night or two in the city.
