    Sauna Deutsche Eiche

    I do believe we need one very objective, youth review. So first of all, personnel are either not happy and stuck with their problems or they are just that way. Helpful but extremely greedy. When it comes to the facilities I was quite satisfied, there are places to relax, places to enjoy. Very clean and great. If you are a smoker it's a good thing since they have a smoking lounge. When it comes to food and drinks I do believe it is extremely expensive but I get it. There's one thing that bothered me a lot, and that's basically you can't charge your phone nowhere in the bar area, and especially if you are waiting 5 hours to get your massage appointment you'll be needing your phone. Fine, I accepted to charge it at the reception, where personnel asked me to completely turn off my phone! Which is ridiculous! Do these people know about the issues when turning off the phone? Guess not... Anyways overall I loved the facility but sauna is not really "youth" friendly. As I was here many times during my stay and I was the only one young.

    Sauna Deutsche Eiche

    I went there on Monday 28 May 2018. I was surprised with how big the facility is, a lot of cruising area (sling and glory holes etc). Unfortunately the sauna itself is very small. Only 3 were working (not sure if there were more there). One dry kinda stunk and wasn't too hot. Steam sauna I hated. The part that was with a bench to sit on was cold! and not much steam in it, when you go deeper to the next room it was nowhere to sit cause it's a maze and guys have fun there and are catching you and stop you (which is ok when you want to play but sometimes all I need is to relax in it). When you step further it's pitch black and I was afraid to hurt myself. The layout is very confusing. Multiple levels so lots of stairs walking. I never figured it all out. Lots of play spaces, but it's system is "you must rent a room for privacy". Like most saunas these days it wasn't terribly crowded but the crowd was nice. People are rather shy and not talkative. I was in a jacuzzi and no one ever said a word. Well there was a sign on the wall about not talking but i think it's not great. For the dark/play space it is very confusing and you can get easily lost. It's kind of a labyrinth full of corridors and private cabins that you have to pay for. Some of the corridors are way too black for me. The average age was 40s. Entrance fee is on a pricey side. Not my favorite sauna but it wasn't bad.

    I really love this sauna. A good atmosphere, a lot of space and many hot guys. Was also crowded on Thursday afternoon. Friendly staff and the guests were also respectful. There is nothing negative to say about Deutsche Eiche. I'm sure it's one of the best saunas in Europe.

    I came here at around 8 on a Friday evening. The place is easy to find but it was less busy than I expected. As many other people said, most the the customers are above 30 and only a few young people were there. Had some fun but it wasn't some place that I go again.

    I visited this place on an early Friday evening. There are many older men. Not a problem for me. I had some fun with this guy with a massive package. Not so good is you need to pay to get a cabin. We did it near a TV playing porn and other people (not so attractive ones) were trying to watch which was a bit off. However I would go back certainly.

    I went there 2 times. Not so young guys inside (all around 50) but you can find guys around 20ies. I'm 23 and I liked to find 2 guys around my age. Very crowed during the weekend but particular and happy atmosphere. Good experience! ....Forgot the absolutely UN-polite guys at the reception.

    Sauna Deutsche Eiche

    I have been there 3 times in different days of week. All i can say is: - sauna is very big.. with a lot of cruising area... sling and glory holes. - unfortunately there are many old men and a lot of bottoms. This means.. that u walk a lot.. and have fun only a few times. The receptionist was very rude!

    Sauna Deutsche Eiche

    Large and clean traditional bath house with a very confusing floor plan on multiple levels. I never really figured it out which was ok. Lots of play spaces, but it's American-style so you must rent a room for privacy. Like most saunas these days it wasn't terribly crowded (perhaps after work is busier) and average age was 40. Best option in town, but a bit pricey.

    Sauna Deutsche Eiche

    Well I went there on Thursday 24(Apr.2016) evening it was Thursday pre-easter and many told me that the sauna will be crowded since Friday is off. To describe the sauna, it s big with a huge space for lockers, and it is over three floors which is kind of bothering because everytime you wanna go to the play zone you have to go to -1 and if you need to go to the jacuzzi or sauna you have to go to +1 which means you keep going up and down. For the dark/play space it is very confusing and you can get easily lost - It s kind of a labyrinth full of corridors and private cabins. Besides if you don't have a private cabin you don't have a place to play - in another way If you like someone and you wanna get more intimate you should have a cabin or else you have to play in the middle of nowhere (which I don't mind) and others will not stop touching you. The wet sauna is so dark in some areas where you cannot see anything and it is a bit confusing. In Brief: 1. The crowd was mainly very old men who keep trying to touch you which I didn't like a lot 2. It is an expensive sauna since you have to pay for every service you want 3. the design of the sauna is so complicated and you spend your time on the stairs between the sauna and play rooms 4. The private cabins idea is a NO- NO I was not happy with my experience but I would go there again maybe and this time will be on a Sunday afternoon for a better judgment.

    Sauna Deutsche Eiche

    Admission costs €18 for a 5hr visit. Massage costs depend on the duration of the massage. If you choose a 1hr massage, then 1hr is included in your 5hr visit. Which means you've 4hrs to cruise. Since both the sauna visit and massage are charged separately, then the total duration of the stay should be 5hrs + 1hr = 6hrs! The ratings below for 'Value' is for a visit with a massage, 'Service' is for massage, 'Facilities' & 'Cleanliness' are for both sauna & massage room.

    I'm used to go to saunas in London, and I have to say that this Sauna in Munich is by far the best one I've ever experienced. The changing room and the lockers are big and never defective, the place is extremely clean (really, London saunas should use this as a benchmark), it is big, full of different locations to meet guys, relax, have fun privately or publicly. Condoms and lube are easily at disposal.

    München wird normalerweise als Weltstadt mit HERZ, d. h. freundlich empfunden, nicht so das Personal. Das ist eher knorzig, wenn nicht wurmstichig. Schade, denn die Lage der Deutschen (???) Eiche würde besseres, kundenorientierteres und auch charmanteres Personal verdienen. H3

    It is probably the best sauna I have been in. The place is big, reasonably crowded during the weekend, with mixed people. Most of all it is very clean and the lockers and changing room are OK.

    I usually go to gay saunas in London, and I have to say that this is far better. The place is definitely clean, much more than I expected. The lockers are reasonably big and working. The place is big and you have a lot of choices. I really recommend to go to this sauna if you are looking for easy casual fun.

    If you're looking for a gay sauna in Munich, then Deutsche Eiche is the place to go. Large facilities with great rooftop terrace. The crowd is hit or miss. Friendly staff. Good food, though on the pricey side.

    Sauna Deutsche Eiche

    Conveniently located at back of Deutsche Eiche hotel in quiet area. Front desk folks could be MUCH more courteous. Not into giving my money to obnoxious greeters. This is not cheap, but still cheaper than other places I have been to. However, the 5-hour limit is pushing it. Hence the lower star rating. However, Once in, let the cruising begin. I think that is the largest steam too. I have ever seen. Basement has large action room and plenty of heavy action going on. People of all ages, black and white guys, asian, hispanics, all there for the taking, or the being taken. All sizes for anyone's tastes. Anyone can find something interesting. It's clean, large and fun. Go down to basement, and you find a large common room with large beds. And that was just the first room. We were probably 12-14 guys getting it on. I wanted to move on and went through smaller dark hallways - more action. Along the paths, a couple of slings in middle of halls used up. Plenty if booths too. Probably 20-25, if memory serves me well. Upstairs is the great pool and sauna. Maybe, it is limiting to 5 hours because the action just does not stop. It's on from start to finish. But, the nice little warm rest areas too and plenty of comfy sofas. And that's the reason why the price seems a bit unfair. Still, I may go back to Munich just for the sauna. I just wish the place were staffed with friendlier front desk staff.

    This place was awesome. No it isn't cheap, but it was less than most bath houses in the US. It was spacious with lots of play areas and lots of men on a Saturday afternoon. It was also very clean.

    Unclean, old and worn decor, all over 60, seedy old men. Absolute waste of money. Don't go here.
