Pleasuredrome – westminster

It has been a Great place to goto, you can keep yourself to your self or mix it up a bit up to you . The staff are all great just a nice place to vist ok 👍😊👍

When did it open? Please let us know.

Both times that I have visited Pleasuredrome, I have had a good time. It's fairly large and was fairly busy with clients there for the fun and good times. I was planning to go again at the beginning of August 2020, but the coronavirus pandemic put an end to my trip, and evidently the Pleasuredrome is closed too out of health concerns.

First impressions - the place is spotlessly clean, the four or five guys looking after the place were doing a good job. There were lots of guys using the place on Thursday lunchtime.The layout is complex but well planned with unexpected rooms and entrances, you feel like exploring. . Had a chat with the barman who was genuinely happy and contented with his pay and conditions. I liked the 2 steam rooms, hot and tepid, the pool and the chill out areas. Best of all the atmosphere was relaxed and friendly.

The facilities were clean (though parts were closed for renovation and apparently have been for some time) and the staff were very attentive. I didn’t have any problems with the staff that some people have described here, although one attendant did spend a lot of time just hanging out in the cruising area and that was a bit off-putting because it felt like we were being monitored. But the guy working the bar was really friendly and chatted during breaks. The atmosphere was relaxed and respectful and there was a fair mix of guys. It was pretty quiet but that’s always a risk on a weeknight and during holidays and I understand that the management can’t guarantee a crowd at all times. Some regulars said it’s still the best sauna in town. A couple of minor criticisms: in general it was all a bit too warm (the pool was almost too warm for comfort) - most European saunas give you a bigger difference in temperature between the relaxation areas and the pool/saunas/steam rooms. It’s also inconvenient that you can’t charge drinks etc to your locker number and pay on the way out. Finally, I did have a bit of a panic when I accidentally spilled poppers on myself; I asked the staff for advice and they were a bit clueless. I guess they’re not trained to answer medical questions but it would be good if they had some basic knowledge of what to do in such situations, which can’t be that uncommon.

I'll be honest I'm probably not the kind of guy that visits these places normally so my review is probably biased to some extent. So take it with a pinch of salt. But if you've not been somewhere like this before, have a read... There are a couple of things that mean I would never go back here ever again. The first thing, is there is CCTV *EVERYWHERE* and I mean everywhere. I'm the kind of guy that likes to be quite discrete and I was shocked at the extent of the cameras everywhere. Some guy in an office at Pleasuredrome basically has a hard drive full of videos of guys doing who knows what. The cameras were in the corridors, the dark areas, changing rooms, etc. Mostly they are not noticeable in the dark but they've all got those led lights that work in the dark, so it's actually a bit concerning how much they probably pick up. It didn't seem proportionate and I must admit I've come away feeling really uncomfortable about that. If the venue sees this then I hope they'll reply and explain their retention policy in that regard. The other bizarre thing is that the staff come around with torches every 10 minutes or so, which really does kill any sort of mood that might exist. I guess they're doing it for a hygiene/safety perspective, but it's still weird. The place generally seems to attract a lot of older unfit guys, which I guess is probably to be expected and so I'm probably guilty of naivety there. But I've heard other places attract a younger crowd. This place didn't and I was definitely one of the youngest guys there. Finally, hygiene wise, the place didn't smell great in certain rooms. But then I guess that's to be expected. They did seem to be quite proactively cleaning but I expect you can only do so much. Overall, I would definitely not recommend this place just because of the lack of privacy, which is my biggest concern. I'm sure the venue will try and justify this for security etc., but I really just don't think it's appropriate, you wouldn't find CCTV cameras in toilets and gym changing rooms, so the fact you have it in saunas just blows my mind.

Hey all! I visited Pleasuredrome few times now and can tell this is the best place to go in London! The place is incredibly clean with very interesting layout, almost like a maze in places. As you can imagine - it ads some special charm to the experience. They have a bar as well which is working 24/7. It’s an amazing one, especially having in mind them prices - they are very low knowing Pleasuredrome is in the central area. The staff is keeping place clean and supervised all the time and you feel really safe and taken care of. And all the staff members are very polite, always smiling and ready to help you at any time. Honestly - I couldn’t ask for a better experience and will definitely come back! You guys are doing a great job!

This is a good sauna. I recently visited. Good points: - clean - friendly staff - good location - modern facilities - 24 hour bar - good mix of ages. Something for everyone. What could be better: - need to pay for cabins now. Used to be free. If cabins were free I would give 5 stars. In my experience it is busiest in the evenings and at weekends. You get a good mix of guys. Enjoy!

I visited recently and had a great time. I thought the place was clean and well attended. I had a drink at the bar and met some really nice guys and we sat and talked for ages. If I had to make one or two suggestions it would be that some more areas for sitting/lying in the cruising area and also less of the torches from the staff - it's a little off putting and kills me mood just a tad 🤣

An enjoyable visit yesterday. I'll be saving up to try the Swedish massage the next time I come down and really relax. Only issue was with a small incident in the sauna where another patron smashed a thermometer and glass ended up on the floor - couldn't be helped. Staff did ok however they seemed to be making it up as they went along and someone did manage to cut their foot. Maybe it's worth exploring some standard incident responses to clear that area of the property when barefooted access is less than safe?
