About this place Le Terme di Achille

Le Terme di Achille has been a men-only gay sauna since 2005. It sits at Via Tezzano 13, a couple of minutes' walk from Catania Centrale railway station, and some longtime regulars and older guides still call it by its former name, Sauna Zeus. The sauna is on two floors. Downstairs there is a Finnish sauna, a Turkish bath, aromatherapy and a hydromassage pool with chromotherapy. Upstairs are a darkroom, a labyrinth, glory holes, relax cabins, a video room and a massage room. There is also a lounge bar, a reading area, a smoking area and air-conditioned rooms. A free buffet is laid on, and on Sundays and public holidays there is an apericena (aperitivo with food), which makes Sunday afternoon the busiest time of the week. Opening hours, per the sauna's own website and its ARCO club page, are every day from 14:00 to 22:00. It is an everyday afternoon and early-evening sauna, not a party venue, and it can be quiet in the last hour. Entry is for members. Terme di Achille is on the ARCO club list (the network that replaced ANDDOS), and the card can be issued at reception with photo ID. Non-Italian citizens can take the 90-day ARCO Travel card. The sauna does not publish prices: visitors reported paying EUR 15 on a weekday without a card in 2025 and EUR 20 for one visit in August 2025, and say the yearly card lowers the entry price. Several reviewers say it is cash only, and visitors without a card report their ID being held at reception until they leave. Towels and flip-flops are provided. The crowd is mixed in age and mostly local, with tourists in summer. Reception may speak only Italian. Phone 095 746 3543 or see saunatermediachille.it to check today's price.

The staff are very friendly, I found the facilities to be in good order, the sauna is clean, it’s not a grand space, but it’s big enough for it’s purpose. I had fun there and I would definitely return if I visited Catania again. Please note they only accept cash!

Small, but clean, friendly establishment. Good saunas, both dry and wet and also a Jacuzzi. We enjoyed a few hours here. They have a bar, which looked great ( we didn't use it), and also a massage service.

Clean and quiet sauna

I've been there three times and have had a great time each time. The staff is very polite, friendly, and discreet. The environment is meticulously clean, down to the last detail and in every room. The dry sauna, Turkish bath, hot tub, showers, dressing rooms, corridors, and changing rooms are all always tidy and clean. I've met people of all ages and have had a great time relaxing and enjoying myself. When I return to Catania and have the time, I'll gladly return.

4 stars only because it's really small and even though it was a Monday, the pool was full, the sauna was full, and the Turkish bath was full. That said, the staff were friendly and professional, the environment was clean, and the cruising part was very interesting.

It's the only one of its kind left in the city. Anyway, it's very well run.
