Toulouse, the fourth largest city in France, is known for its pink bricks, the Place du Capitole and its very generous climate. But the pink city has much more to offer to its gay inhabitants or to gay tourists passing through. Among the gay establishments in Toulouse, we suggest you discover the gay sauna KS. This is the ideal place to meet beautiful Toulouse people while having a relaxing break in the hammam or the jacuzzi. Our team went to meet Jean-Luc, who runs the KS sauna since its creation.

Can you introduce yourself?
Jean-Luc: After having run a video store for a few years, I wanted to change sector and I was part of the team that created the sauna. I have been running the establishment since it opened in 2006.

What is the history of the KS sauna? And where does the name come from?
JL: The KS sauna was created at the end of 2006, after long months of work. Since then, the sauna has continued to evolve over the years. We wanted to make changes in the layout and improvements. After 8 years of existence, an exceptional closure is planned in the summer of 2015 to offer a completely renovated establishment, with new spaces.
KS stands for Kaeli Sauna: the decoration of the sauna being of Indian inspiration, we named it so, "kaeli" meaning amusements, erotic games in Hindi. The letters KS also refer to the Kama Sutra.

According to you, what are the main assets of your establishment?
JL: We do everything possible to ensure that (in order) hygiene, welcome and friendliness are present in our establishment. All preventive material is available in each cabin and at the entrance of each labyrinth. Clients have a disinfectant spray in each cabin.

whoare the clients who frequent the KS sauna?
JL: The average age of our customers is between 25 and 45 years. In the evening and on weekends, we welcome mostly gay people, during the day, and during the week, more boys who prefer discretion. We are lucky to have an entrance on a small street, not very busy.

What is the best time to enjoy the KS sauna?
JL: Theme evenings like naturist evenings and weekends are the most popular times for our customers, while bear afternoons are a guarantee of conviviality and a good atmosphere around the buffet offered to customers.
