About this place The Brighton Sauna

The Brighton Sauna is a well-established gay wellness venue located on Old Steine in the heart of Brighton. As the largest gay sauna in southeast England, it offers a comprehensive range of facilities designed for relaxation, socialising, and intimate encounters. The venue features a 20-man dry sauna and steam room for traditional sauna experiences, a jacuzzi for unwinding, 16 private cabins for more discreet time, and various well-equipped play areas throughout the space. Additional services include massage and a fast-tanning booth if you're looking to add those to your visit. This is a straightforward, no-frills gay sauna experience typical of what you'd find in a progressive UK coastal city. The venue operates daily with extended hours on weekends, staying open 24 hours on Saturdays and Sundays — useful if you're planning a full weekend session or late-night visit. Daytime hours are available throughout the week for those preferring quieter times. For practical information: parking is available at the nearby NCP car park on Church Street, or you can park on a single yellow line after 7pm if preferred. The venue also takes health seriously, offering confidential HIV and STD testing and advice through the Terrence Higgins Trust on Wednesday evenings — a valuable service for sexual health-conscious visitors. For more details about current opening times, facilities, or any specific amenities, check their website at thebrightonsauna.com.

Regarding my revisit to The Brighton Sauna yesterday on their Towel Free Day? £20 money well spent. I got more than I wanted compared to the other spots I ventured whilst in Brighton for the weekend. My personal highlight without a doubt before returning to London; hopefully it won't be another several years before coming back. James H was a lovely man.
