Sauna Colosseo

על המקום הזה Sauna Colosseo

Sauna Colosseo on Via Bezzecca is one of the oldest operating gay saunas in Italy, having welcomed visitors since the 1980s. It sits near Porta Romana, south of the city centre — a 15-minute walk from Porta Venezia or a short metro ride. The facility is smaller and more traditional than Thermas: a steamroom, a Finnish sauna, a maze-style darkroom, private cabins and a small bar. The clientele is predominantly local — regulars who have been coming for years or decades — and the atmosphere is accordingly more intimate and unhurried than at the larger tourist-oriented sauna. Cleanliness standards are consistently high. The space was fully renovated in the early 2010s. Entry is moderately priced with lockers, towel and the bar included. Open afternoons and evenings daily from 14:00, with later closing on weekends.
