Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. The only saunas in Germany are gay saunas. If you are thinking of Brazilian type saunas with rent boys being in Germany, it is not going to happen. Your friend told you about saunas in other cities in Europe but omitted one sauna in Europe that is predominately a rent-boy sauna, which is in Zurich, not far from Germany. The name of the Zurich sauna is Paragonya wellness club - http://www.paragonya.ch/and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2g0VcjgsK4 The sauna is in a very nice section (old) of Zurich, located in a commercial building. The sauna usually has more than 40 working guys. Considering that you like Brazil so much, you might like to know that a large portion of the working guys at the sauna are Brazilians. The working guys are of a varied mix. Of course, most of the Brazilians are "butch" while the Asian working guys are usually "twinks" and are often rather feminine. The club, itself, is extremely clean. The "rooms" that are available for getting together with working guys are rather flimsy with the door made of some sort of thin plastic. The use of the "rooms" is without cost. Check out the web links I provided and you will see the general layout of the place. Having been so many times to the Brazilian saunas and the sauna in Barcelona (thermas), I cannot recommend Paragonya as a place to make a special trip to see. It is okay but it is not one of my favorite saunas. Badboy81 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will definitely look into your recommendations... mvan1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cgnfunguy Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Hi from Cologne here in Cologne you will find great saunas for gays only, but without rentboys! Anyway on a sunday afternoon the saunas are packed with guys all ages - so enough to watch and eventually to play, too. One comment to the place with Boys in Düsseldorf: all the guys there are from east Europe, they are not from Germany! But the Place is clean and nice and it depends on the guy of you will have a great experience... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are thinking of Brazilian type saunas with rent boys being in Germany, it is not going to happen. Well, it has happened in the past and may happen again. The Appollo Splash Club/Club Sauna Brasil in Berlin used to have large numbers of rent boys. They were the ones usually wearing trunks and there was a range of types. I used their services on a coupe of trips & on others got lucky with regular clients of a youthful appearance. Then, perhaps 6 years ago, they rebranded and got rid of all the "trade". I did read they rebranded again last year & all the trade was back, but there was a fire before I could make it there to investigate. Apparently it remains closed after that. So, I suppose action remains on line & concentrated in the rent bars (such as around Fuggerstrasse in Berlin). A pity, since the sauna did work well.
