    Just Good

    Visited on Fri, Sat & Sun end of aug. Entry price included a pair of slippers which is smart. Nice cruising area with brick-walled and ceiling. Some cabines smell unpleasant though.

    Smoky, dark

    Decent facilities and, like many European saunas, cool way to experience old underground vaults. Mixed clientele on a Saturday night. Other than the large pool and the dressing areas, it’s very dark throughout. I prefer some better lit areas to see who’s who. Big complaint is smokers. This is a non-smoking facility (smoking in indoor public places against the law in Spain) but I saw at least one guy was smoking a cigarette in the mazes. At other European saunas the smoking rooms are respected and properly ventilated. Much of the place smelled like an ashtray. Yuck.

    Nice, clean and fun

    Very clean and well maintained. Compared to Sauna Beach which was grotty and run down. Went on a Saturday morning and an attractive clientele. Would definitely return when in Madrid.

    The best sauna in Madrid

    The best sauna in Madrid and one of the best in the world. I was on Sunday morning. It was full of sexy, horny and very nice guys. A lot of young guys. The older ones are well-groomed and handsome men. The place is not for the shy. You have many opportunities to watch and join or be seen if you like it.

    The best sauna in Madrid

    Every time when I visit Madrid without doubts I go to Paraiso because you always can find there a lot of fun. More the less I visited Paraiso on Monday and got three hot sexy tops. I should say my age is 54, more bottom but in good shape. Therefore if you want hot adventures and you are masculine or sportive person your place is Paraiso.

    Super spreaders' paradise

    The only people wearing masks inside are the staff as protecting themselves is a priority, so everyone else is free to spread COVID. Lots of kissing strangers doing their best to keep the virus going. Additionally, if you've not had an STD in a while, this is the place to go. Unprotected everywhere. Finally, if, like me, you're middle aged and like getting insulted by cute 20-somethings who sneer, look no further.

    Clean and secure paradise

    My usual partner lives in Madrid capital and I live in the mountains. To make it easy for us, we often meet at "Sauna Paradise" for wonderful hot sessions, and I am missing these great days during lockdown. As soon as restrictions are over, we will definitely start our "love hours" again in this clean and friendly place.

    Sale et plein de drogués

    Every time I come to Madrid I spend a moment at Paraiso hoping it gets better. In reality it is dirty, people smoke inside and the vast majority of customers are messed up. Too bad because there are beautiful boys.

    Rude Staff

    My boyfriend and I had a very bad experience there. We were using a cabin room and staff knocked on the door and screamed. We thought something happened cuz the lights were on. Turns out they wanted to clean the place and interrupted our action. So I had to leave because no mood to stay in that bad, rude place.

    OK, but far from the nicest I have seen

    Right from the beginning it is odd. You have to pay at a machine. For entry, for a massage, for a coke, anything. I guess the owner is paranoid of theft. The place is reasonably clean. but has a strange layout. One bathroom has urinals and a sink actually in a hallway. There is o douche facility, but there are 2 china bidets, but only have cold water piped to them. There is a suckatorium, that again is bad design. The service provider has to stand in a hallway. Not a main hallway, but a hallway. The 3 stalls, each have 3 holes, one above the next. Dude! cut a slot! The place is showing wear and tear, but is kept pretty clean. The staff was helpful.

    The best in Madrid

    Location: Central and convenient to the Noviciado stop. Type of clientele: From 20 to 50 years, but they are mostly young people in their thirties, fit and, some even muscular. Many are effeminate, but in Spain it is normal. Structure: Not new, but it's ok. Nice indoor pool and not bad cruising area. Cleanliness: Good. Prices: Not high. Advice for customers: If, in Madrid, you are looking for nice guys with muscular physique, you have no other choice, they only come to this sauna. Italians are very appreciated. The Turkish bath is the place where you can have more fun. The sauna is always busy, but logically, on Sunday afternoon it is the top. Advice for managers:You should enlarge the Turkish bath, as it contains the best orgies, but it is small.

    For the young and pretty

    This place succeeds in attracting its target audience: young and pretty guys, most appeared to be in mid- to late-20s. Unfortunately that didn’t make me feel welcome as an older guy (50+, but still fit and pretty). The young crowd when I visited on a Friday night were only into each other. Bel Ami could have shot a video of the very hot six-way I watched in the pool; unfortunately “watched” is the key word—no possibility of joining in. After about three hours, l left without having touched or been touched by another person there, and not for lack of flirting and friendliness effort on my part. I’m not sure I was any more broad-minded when I was in my 20s, but these days, at least where I live, it seems some young guys are less ageist. The Paraiso facilities are extensive and the ambiance of the old exposed brick and cellar feel is really cool. The pool and hot tub (not hot, unfortunately) both need some attention with cleanliness, and could use serious updating for the stairs—a bit dicey on the footing. The dry sauna was the most interesting place to hang out but way too hot. Unfortunately I would not return to this place due to the attitude of the target audience. Paraiso is just not for the normal, middle-aged gay man—and that’s more and more of us, no?

    Decent Facility and Clientele

    Very interesting space for a sauna: looks like a vast storage cellar, with brick vaulted ceilings everywhere. I went on two weekday afternoons in October while on holiday. Monday was busier, Tuesday less so, but still a decent number of guys. This was my first experience of any kind in Spain and it was only “ok.” I got plenty of attention both days: from 3 guys the first day and 5 the second day. But most of these encounters were quick and not very satisfying. I’m used to a lot of foreplay that may lead up to me topping and if not, a lot of satisfying action and kissing. Most of what I got was quickie actions. Maybe this is the norm at this place. I assume it’s not what Spaniards in general prefer; I’ve had great action with Spaniards outside of Spain!

    Best in Europe!!!

    Sorry, I can't understand the rating of this sauna. I am 25, have visited saunas over 100 time in 22 cities in 10 european coutries. This one is definitely the best with distance. I went on Sunday morning at 4:00, it was very full of hottest, open minded guys, not one old/fat man (well, I will be old too, not unrespected, just not my type). I don't know how they achieve it, totally different ages from other saunas. I stay till 2pm, there were always nice choices. I had some amazing experiences.

    Dreadful place

    I visited this sauna on a Sunday lunchtime. I would say 95% of the people there hadn't gone to bed from the Saturday night. They were all high as a kite and very noisy. The pool area was disgusting. Used condoms everywhere, beer bottles and glasses all around the edge of the pool. The guys there were mostly fit - but they all knew it, prancing around like they're God's gift to the planet, all off their heads - so even if you do manage to pull one of them, they're not going to be much use anyway. I stayed 30 minutes and left. Total waste of time and money.

    Cabins are too hot and moist

    This sauna is nice and on Sundays it is full of guys different ages. The only 'probem' is that it's super hot and moist in the cabins. Therefore it was not so nice because you get tired and wet so fast.

    Could be good with some improvements

    Caveat. Attended on New Years Day and the place was at capacity. The good. The exposed brick catacombs, quiet music and long row of lounge chairs evoke a relaxed attitude. The not so good. Facilities are inadequate for the number of people e.g. Persistent queue for the showers. At one stage only one soap dispenser was full and there was no toilet paper. This was attended to later. Two cleaners appeared only to clear glasses and pick up rubbish. The toilets were gross. There were used towels lying everywhere and floors were wet even in the cruise areas. Despite signs advising people not to smoke, they were doing so in great numbers. Combine this with a lack of ventilation and over heating and the air was a toxic fug. Each patron was supplied with one condom and no lubricant was supplied. Seriously? It is not unreasonable to expect each cabin to have condom and lube dispensers plus paper towels. Nevertheless the place was full of hot men and a good time was had by all. A local informed me that this is the best sauna in Madrid as the others are full of rent boys and pick pockets. If this is the best Madrid has to offer, then they need to pull their collective socks up. With minor improvements this place could be good.

    Sept 16 visit

    Great place to go - especially after big party events such as WE. We went Sunday morning about 9:30am after the party and it was ram packed full of some of the hottest guys in Madrid, we even went back Sunday evening and it was just as good! Good facilities - only issue is people openly smoking, but thats more my issue as a none smoker

    Most popoular sauna in Madrid

    Well I have been many many times in this sauna. I can tell a lot of things. In the last year have been more big... There are a lot Guy / Man / Daddy. Everyone can find what he want!

    Big sexy space

    A relatively big sauna with a different play areas. I was there during holiday season and the place was always packed after 3-4pm. Mixed crowd, most of the actions happened in the steam and sauna. The one way mirror looking into sauna from the steam room was sexy. The spanish guys were not shy! The shower can be ice-cold sometime, choose carefully.
