About this place Club 117

Club 117 is a men's sauna and bar in an old house on Rua Cândido Mendes in Glória. Listings mention dry and steam saunas, a jacuzzi, a darkroom, cabins, a terrace and rooms to rent. It is best known as a place where garotos de programa (male sex workers) meet clients, so expect that to be the main business rather than a standard cruising sauna. Reported hours are roughly mid-afternoon to 01:00, closed Mondays, and entry has been around R$100. Confirm on Instagram, as these change. If you go to a room with someone, agree the price clearly beforehand. Keep valuables in the locker.

99 Reais entrance fee. 77 Reais suite room. 200 Reais for a boy. Without Uber/taxi and without drinks. No!! That's way too expensive.

Really liked the vibe here. The atmosphere is totally laid-back, the prices are fair, and it turned out to be a very fun night. Definitely worth a visit.

Giving up on going just because of the negative comments!

The place advertises itself as a drag show, but it's actually a gay sauna. The advertising is misleading. The entrance fee is quite expensive (100 reais) for what they offer. Furthermore, most of the people inside appear to be sex workers, and the experience becomes very invasive, as they don't respect personal space. It wasn't possible to socialize naturally. I don't recommend it.

From the photos and description, we thought it was a bar with a drag show, but no, it's not a gay sauna either… it's a place full of somewhat pushy escorts… I just think paying 100 reais to get in is a waste of time, especially since some of the escorts are quite hostile.
