The sauna is on the hot side; sometimes almost to burning your skin. Visitors are inclined not to talk much to strangers !The showers are almost always flooded with superfluous water. Yesterday half of the showers were even closed ! Please tell WIM, the owner, he really has to have this repaired. Moreover, the bar is not cleaned too well.(where you put your glass). Personal is not always friendly, en give the impression of being bored with the place (!).

This is really one of the best male saunas in Europe. Great facilities, a very mixed crowd and pure non apologetic eroticism and no attitude sex !

I want to write about sauna a bit, I'm a local guy from Amsterdam. Well I'm going there time to time and still like it. But to know about what happening there you must go. Sauna facility getting worse and worse, it's all about sex, more like a sex club, but not a spa enjoyment!!! Condoms, dirty cabins, damage furniture sofas, smells of chemicals after cleaning floors, toilets, darkrooms etc. Police, ambulances, fighting,young boys, old men, handicap, tourists, drinks, smoking weed in smoking area, drugs,all you can find there its Amsterdam, so I would say if you want that experience just go there. Staff is fine never rude, but anyhow arrogant, and don't pay attention you will not need the STAFF! All ages, and busy and not busy, day by day. Its a sex club! In the name of the SAUNA! Welcome to Amsterdam! P.s you can find a nice people there too!

I am from London and have visited many saunas in there and also around the world and this has been my best experience with excellent, clean facilities, friendly staff and a hot international clientele who made for a very enjoyable time.

The best sauna I've ever been! I had some hours before my flight back home so I decided to go to sauna. It was Sunday noon just before the oppening and there was a long line of guys waiting for entrance. Inside is very clean. Full of guys in different age. And a lot of acction. Wonderful chillout room, very clean dry and steam saunas, huge crousing area. Condoms and lube available everywhere. The place ione MUST visit in Amsterdam.

It was okay, not as fun as I thought, maybe it was not on weekend.

Je suis passé samedi en journée. Beaucoup de monde, accueil sympa, sauna propre, restauration au top, de l'action partout...Je suis sorti bien fatigué :-) mais ravi.

Dutch guys are nice and mostly have beautiful good size tools. This place is just can not be better. My experience is I had great fun with 15 guys in one day .

Went on a weekend in December, found it very pleasant. Barmen were friendly, and so was the crowd. Had a good time with 3 blokes on Saturday, another 2 on Sunday. Will go back.

I have traveled many saunas around the world. This place was very modern, clean and looking good. But It's full of older men of all ages above 40. I'm not against of having mature men in saunas, everyone needs to have fun, but they were not even a handful of young men! My search went on for hours but no-one under 30 were anywhere to be seen and I get bored and left after 3 hours! Maybe younger men comes in late night I don't know... it was a daytime in Sunday when I was there. I am also surprised to find out that this the only sauna in Amsterdam :/ I had more fun at Church Club on Friday night to be honest.

Spotted... As Rupaul says... Shanté you Stay...i love this sauna.. werk it...

My experience of about 2 weeks ago. When one enters one gets a button for a consumption, I took a glass of beer, When I left this guy asked me to pay 2.75 Euro. The price of a beer, that however, I never had asked for and never had drunk either. This caused a very unpleasant talking between me and the guy who gives you the permission to leave the place. Of course I didn't pay for something I never got. " Finally he let me go, but he was still very angry with me.. And me ?? I was very upset and thinking what to do first when eventually, I will go there again come. Must I control first the administration that is linked to the number of the locker??

Get packed during the weekend, ID to present at the entrance however has been done inconsistently which is one of their renewed act at the sauna right after the renovation. The faces of the new staffs looked friendlier than my last visit here which is the way it supposed to be.

If you go to an Italian restaurant to order sushi you are a bit mad. You just wouldn't do that. I give you a piece of advice plan your visits to the saunas, I have been to several around the world and they key is to go when they are busy or on an event time when the city is hosting something big. I went to this sauna earlier on Easter weekend and the place was so packed full of the hottest guys you could not imagine the fun I had. I visited from 12 midnight to 4 am. Totally recommend one of the best saunas in the world! Don't let anyone tell you different. Go on a Saturday night or Sunday daytime and you will see.

The piece de resistance is the central lounge area featuring leather loungers and flanked by a bar at one end and a conservatory-style smoking room on one side. Friendly (mostly) bar staff dish out food and drinks to the quiet strains of somewhat chilled music. I suggest to management that they tweak the music more towards lounge/chillout such as Deluxe Lounge Radio. Thankfully it was not the loud doof doof music some gay operators think is de rigueur. The establishment is thoughtfully designed, built to exacting standards and clean and well managed. A dedicated cleaner was running around cleaning up after the boys. I enjoyed the steam, spa and sauna. Perhaps the steam and showers could be a degree warmer but this is a matter of personal taste. The demographic changed over time starting with the more mature aged at opening time and getting somewhat younger as the night progressed. There was a boot for every foot and a lack of attitude resulting in a fun time for me. Entry included one drink, which by way of example could be a gin or tonic, but not a gin and tonic. This example of teutonic exactitude appears mean spirited (no pun intended) and should be reviewed by management. To us foreigners it just appears strange. To the bitchy, whinging trolls who write excessively negative reviews to trash a businesses reputation just because they didn't get laid I say get a life. To the rest of you reasonable gay men, go, enjoy, have fun. Five stars from me.

I was there at 5 pm on a Monday and I have never seen such a collection of old people. The place was very small (just dry sauna) and an overcrowded jacuzzi. No steaming room and nothing else so I wonder if a floor or an area was closed. Very expensive. I never saw anyone cleaning anything. Maybe the time was not good to have decent looking young (under 45) customers. I live in Paris and can say that there sauna like suncity are 10 better (location and crowd). Don't know if improved after because I left after 40 minutes.

I was hoping that the steam room at least would be as good as or better than it was. Unfortunately, it's worse! The red lights are too bright and they've put this stage area in place of what used to be a nice dark privacy seedy area! I once had a wonderful moment there but I'm not going to do it now in full view of everyone on a stage! Anything that goes on now is pretty much in full view of everyone where as before, you could enjoy the steam room at a distance without being bothered by what was going on in the dark area, or you could go join in but now it's all in your face, so to speak. So disappointed! :/

I went there without my residence permit to show that I'm under 26, and the staff was friendly to me, until the manager staff came to me and told me that only residence permit could prove my age, and told me I have to pay the full fee. Long story short, the manager staff was very unpolite and his reasons for his refusal do not make sense.

Re-opened at 21June 17, visited a few days after they completed the renovation. Clearly the touched up was only made in the Whirlpool which was using sensor system instead of push-button to reclaim the other round of water current and it was very hard to be done, need to place your finger-tip gently and slowly. People started to loose patient by do it over and over again, we are missing the point of having relaxation but turned to working hard on that system. Steam room has Red Light illuminated that surely gives you the feeling of sensual and beyond, and just a few relax/playing cabin has added right behind the whirlpool, but still could not cater the weekend peak hour. The visit that i did last week was packed with lack of rooms, then again we are missing the sense of having fun, since not everyone enjoy the fun at the steam cabin, more playing cabin should be there. Not sure if the idea of showing your ID at the entrance is consistently done but its a brilliant one. The Sauna chain in Rotterdam is planned to open by Mid of this year and hopefully they can chase the target on time to experience the difference of their touch.

I was excited about the reopening! I arrived at 7pm. Toilet floor still flooded with the water from shower. (and vise versa) which is too nasty. (always wear flip flops!!) No toilet paper in two toilets. Of all the things that could have been improved. They chose to replace the normal shower heads to the rainfall shower heads. WHO ASKED FOR THAT? Now you get wet hair when you don't want wet hair. There was no sound in the smoking room, and worse... no sound in the cruising area. The dimmer lights have been replaced with way-too-dark red dimer lights. (Hint - some of us actually WANT to SEE who we are playing with!) In some cabins the lights don't work at all!. The whirlpool area is more exposed so there is no cosy-ness to it. The huge sitting area should have been reduced to make more cabins. There is still no one monitoring the rooms REGULARLY to keep them clean and remove sleeping people.

Wtf this one is closed too maybe until June, so beside some stinky smoky cruise bar there is not much going on in the city , it sucks

This one is closed too, so beside some smoky stinky cruise club there is not much going on in the city right now, it sucks.

So many people and very interesting.

World class sauna. Went during the Saturday 12am-4am hours and it was very busy with tons of actions. Wide variety of guys for your taste. Staff were friendly and attentive.

Amsterdam needs a new sauna. This place is way too small and doesn't fulfill the needs of a city like Amsterdam. Being a 24 hour establishment on weekends, they should be able to provide an area for people to have a little nap, this is also part of a sauna experience and in any big sauna in Germany this is permitted but not here. The place is NOT a sauna, it's a little dark room, that's it. It is hot though. However as being the ONLY 'sauna' in Amsterdam gives the staff and management entitlement to abuse customers at their discretion. I was abused verbally twice by 2 members of staff because I was "sleeping" and when I complained to the manager he said I was paranoid and if I don't like their rules I know where the door is. You simply don't say this to customers, that's unacceptable and I'm sure if they had competition they wouldn't behave in that manner. If u have a car, go to Essen or to Cologne, then you will have a true sauna experience, don't go to this place unless you have no option but to stay in Amsterdam...

I visited NZ only once during my first stay in Amsterdam. I should have stayed longer and I should have gone back that night. Great place. Friendly staff. Clean (in fact we were ejected from the steam room for a scheduled clean, which was fine). Loved the Sauna and the one-way mirrors. The ages, sizes and shapes of the men varied, which was a 'menu' for all. This is going to sound parental, but the drinking fountain just outside the sauna was very convenient. I am not a cruise kind of guy, but the crusing spaces were fun and interesting. If I was a bit more adventurous, then I might have gotten an even better experience, or at least gotten off. The bar area is really nice. Comfortable and open. I sat with my welcome drink and chatted with an older fellow. The locker area is well set up and minus my glasses I could still find my way about. I don't smoke, so the smoking area seemed like a good place to stop for a 'drag' (not the queen type). The BEST part of my stay, however, was my (non-sexual) massage. I booked the massage on arrival and only had to wait 1.5 hours... a great time to enjoy NZ. My man was fantastic. He asked me how strong I wanted the massage and left me very relaxed. Unlike a massage in a parlour, he gave me extra information about how to cap off the massage... the hot spa and the sauna to relax my muscles... it worked a treat. He even played a CD of Maria Callas arias and chatted with me (the point here is that this was all round a great experience). All in all a great place to stop and rest and have some fun. Hello to the beautiful milk chocolate skinned man who chatted with me for quite a while before I left. I wished I could have stayed longer with you.

Being the one & only sauna in the city and most visited by gay travelers and locals.. condom container, lube dispenser and wipe tissue are the smart way to run such a business. During its peak time, there are almost not enough private rooms - something that could be improved on. Otherwise a 5* review would have been provided. Strategic location leads to an easy access.

Being the one & only sauna in Amsterdam has made it became a very hot cruise place as it meant to be. strategic location right in the hear of the City where everything almost legal, condom container, lube dispenser and enough wipe tissue is always smart when it comes to run such business. During its peak time they always short out of rooms, which is one thing that could be improved on but so far one of favorite in its kind.

I was in a lot of gay saunas in Europe ... This sauna is the best, not too big, but not small. Very nice staff, new, clean, free condoms and lube. A lot of guys of all ages, the best place for action in Amsterdam. Best on Friday and Saturday afternoon and evening.

Very impressed! Got there and chill out area almost empty, that's because everyone in there was in the cruising areas. Really busy and was 2pm on a Thursday. I know everyone puts this but honestly a real mix of ages and guys. And action everywhere! Definitely worth a visit guys! I thought area of sauna was big. Nice smoking room, guys were smoking pot as well.

Being the one and only gay sauna in the big city of Amsterdam, NZ still able to facilitate the clients because it is a big sauna, from the Jacuzzi and the cozy dry sauna which allow you to sneak a peek the shower through the glass wall. Entrance fee with include of one round drink so it is cool to give a try. Over all experience was nice, a bit of tip perhaps, silver daddies will out after 6pm jut so in case you guys aren't daddy kinda guy. LOL . Although the towel changing is inconsistent, got once free but next is chargeable. Do not bother anyway!

What a nice surprise, I heard good comments about NZ but they run short of credit. It's superb, maybe I was new flesh, but I met some of the best guys ever. Hot, nice and well endowed, what else can you ask for?. The staff is very nice and helpful, the place is the cleanest and best organised I've been. And believe me, I've been to many.

I thoroughly enjoyed myself at NZ. My goal was to have as much horny fun as possible, and I was not disappointed: There were all types of guys and none of the attitude that you can experience at some of these kinds of places. Once I got past the brightly lit changing area, and into the labrynth of hallways and opportunities around each corner, I got my enjoyment several times over. Well worth it and highly recommended.

A really nice place for hot play, I have been there several times, last time May 20th. Nice cruising and play areas, clean and nice personnel.

The place is fine but it is not great as the website. Staff are nice but the place inside is not great as i think.

Was there on Monday, so not very crowded, nevertheless some action happened. My second time there, love both the arrangmement of the 'sauna' part, as well as the cruising area. The staff is great as well! Will go there again soon!

The best gay sauna I've been to. We had to queue to get in but once inside the place is packed with guys of all ages and nationalities. We met some nice people and had a lot of fun! The venue was very clean. Spent 3 hours here, lots to see and do! Bit expensive but you get a free drink.

In the meantime I have visited NZ several times and every time it was great: friendly staff, good food and drinks and everything so clean and well taken care of. So every time I go there I enjoy the steamroom, the bubblebath , the good food and drinks and ... the cinema! Great adult movies and great cabines to withdraw with horny guys for some hot fun. What more can I say? Keep up the good work guys!

Visited twice, nice environment and facilities but no action. Maybe late afternoon is not the best time to go. I left out of boredom both times. Will try again in the evening. I do miss Thermos.

Good sauna. Crowded on Sunday. We had to wait to get in. Inside the sauna is clean (although there were so many people). Actions in steam room, sauna and cabins. Friendly staff. Only one room to relax (in front of the bar). All the cabins are a bit too dark.

Of the two saunas in Amsterdam NZ has a nicer environment. Visited twice since it opened - both time had fun, although not a huge number of other customers - so you need some luck and careful timing.

Ben er in de avond/nacht van goed vrijdag geweest, met mijn Nederlander beste vriend, slecht service aan de bar, te lang wachten terwijl zij alleen maar bezig zijn met kletsen en steeds helpen wie ze wilen behalf mij, mogelijk door mijn Marocaans uiterlijk, ook bij het verlaten van de sauna met mijn nederlande beste vriend, hebben zij mij 1 euro berekend voor een extra handdoek die ik gevraagd had, mijn beste vriend zelfs 3 handdoeken gebruikt en niets hoefde te betalen, heb toch gevraagd waarom ik 1 euro voor moest betalen, had ik beter niet moeten doen, ben erg onbeschoft beantwoord, dit weer mogelijk door mijn uiterlijk, toch bedankt NZ voor deze prachtig service.

I booked a one-hour Thai massage by Alessandro to unwind my travelling stress and continued with sauna, steam room and small talks at the lounge bar. At least 2-3 lads of my taste, but I was not in horny/cruisy mood. I would recommend going there on a weekday between 8pm and 11pm.

It's great to finally have a classy, comfortable, cruisy place to get your rocks off! Love the lounge! Love the steamroom! The staff is cute and super friendly, I will go there again and again! Highly recommended!

Great place, very stylish, friendly staff and they do their best to keep it clean (it's the people who make such a mess). It's more the (Dutch?) guys who are afraid to make a move. If you make a move you usually can get a lot of fun, even on a quiet night (older guys come during the afternoon).

The facilities are nicer than the Thermos but less plentiful, my boyfriend and I spent more than an hour trying to get a little bit of privacy all the while a bunch of guys followed us around touching me any chance they got. We were open to doing stuff with other people if only they had used their voices instead of just pressing their semis into my back. So, if you're the youngest guy there or just young enough to get the discount (23 years or below) be prepared for a lot of attention, some less welcome than others. But in the end, maybe that's what it's all about. Rated creepy but fun/10

It looks great, but the wet floors are very slippery. Also in the steam bath.

Went there last night. A guy behind the bar was laden with tattoos, stank of swear and not really friendly. Sitting area too small when busy. Lots of older obese guys. Even though modern, its too small so I left disappointed after an hour.

What a fantastically chic and luxurious environment at Sauna NZ. Extremely sexy and friendly staff. Class and cleanliness and the best steam room in Amsterdam. And of course great value, a must for visitors and locals alike.
