Der Boiler
Known locally as 'Beula', this undeniably sexy and markedly spacious Kreuzberg hot spot has swollen in popularity since opening in September 2011, and is now established as the city's premium go-to sauna. Combines traditional soothing spa amenities with more hands-on activites of a darkroom nature. In addition to men on tap, there are drinks, continental breakfasts and salamis are also on offer. Open every day of the year. Connected to the dancing/cruising space Untertage (temporarily/permanently [?] closed as of December 2023). Located seconds from near-iconic Berlin kebab stall Mustafas Gemüse Kebap (most convenient for a tasty post-Boiler sustenance supplier) [see entry]. U-Bahn: Merhingdamm.

Best sauna in Europe
I have been to quite a few saunas in different European capitals, but this one is just the best one I've ever been to! Staff is very friendly, the sauna and common areas are very clean. The bar is very nice and gives a nice chance to chill and relax while meeting new people. The sauna has huge jacuzzi and steam baths, alongside some nice cruising labyrinth. Population is quite young (avarage 25 I would say) and most of the guys are smoking hot! Mainly German, so if you like hot German boys, look no further. Lot of action takes place in the steambath labyrinth, so make sure to check it out. You'll have an amazing time. Guaranteed ! I will definately go back.
Clean and tidy
I have visited "the Boiler" quite a few times and it has always been a nice experience. What is best with this sauna is that if you want some action, you get it! A spacious dressing room. A nice bar with drinks and ok food. Showers, saunas, a big jacuzzi. And not to forget, the labyrint steam sauna. And that is where most of the action takes place. A lot of guys of different ages are walking around in there seeking a friend for some mutual masturbation, a blowjob - or even "the real thing"... In the dark corners of the labyrint you can often watch other guys having sex. It is rather dark and "steamy" so you have to use your imagination to find out exactly what is going on.. But that is ok, since some boys, especially the youngest ones, are a little bit shy (too bad..). Boiler is the right place for gay guys of all ages. And if you are the kind of person who likes to watch other people have sex, or if you like to have sex while other people are watching, then Boiler is the right place. But it is stil not a "dirty" place, everything goes on in a clean and tasteful way. Don't miss the Boiler if you are in Berlin!
