Steamworks Sauna Edinburgh

Steamworks is Edinburgh's only gay sauna, a men-only health club set right in the city's Pink Triangle at Broughton Market, steps from the Broughton Street bars and about a ten-minute walk from Waverley station. Spread over several levels, it offers a dry sauna, steam room, and hot tub alongside private cabins, a video room, a large, fully darkened darkroom, and play areas, with a relaxed lounge serving free tea and coffee between sessions. Run by the team behind Planet Bar and refreshed in recent years, it's unpretentious, clean, and friendly, with staff happy to show first-timers around. Open seven days a week with themed sessions like Naked Wednesdays and busier Darker Nights on weekends, it draws an easygoing, all-ages crowd and makes a natural pairing with a night out on Broughton Street. No membership needed, just turn up.
