Not worth your money. Needs investment in facilities.

Lets face it, if you are going to a sauna and paying hard earned money, you want value for. Sorry to say that The Boiler Room is very much lacking in its facilities. I travelled there today and the first thing was the massive price increase from last time. Gone up by £5.00 to £15.00. On top of that the only way to pay is by card. Obviously some reason for it but a lot of guys including myself don't like card due to what will appear on the statement. Much prefer cash. Ok having travelled some distance I go in. Love the naked days. For as long as I can remember the reception staff have been saying the steam room isn't working as its been sorted out. Then today the Jacuzzi wasn't working either. That is under maintenance. The only thing that was ok was the sauna. Thing is they should drop the price if its not working. Come on management get the steam room fixed. If you are going to keep the £15 entry lets have some value for money

First Visit

Hello! I shall be visiting Sheffield soon from out of the UK. I'd like to know when and how one must be dressed in the venue, and also when you are open. Thanks!

Boiler room

I've been to the Boiler Room on many occasions.. I always have fun, but people rarely use condoms.. Most guys want to bb but I keep on going.

Darkness

Visited Boiler Room yesterday Mon 28th and had a really hot time, quite a bit of action, my only complaint too dark upstairs, a little more light wouldn't go amiss in certain locations to enable one to cruise without tripping over, bumping into doors and fumbling for door catches. Otherwise great for groping in the dark, but hey come on we do like a bit of a glimpse somewhere.

4th Friday

A bit quieter than I was expecting, but then there is never a "normal" number at any sauna I ever visit, That said it was as advertised, and there were definitley some cute guys there, and something for all types. A decent venue but could do with a bigger steam room to match its good sauna.

A reliable, friendly sauna

Visit this place whenever I’m in Sheffield. Usually go before 11am for the reduced entry as full price is a little over the top. Like anywhere up it’s pot luck in terms of the guys who are there but usually have some fun. There’s the occasional lurker who won’t take no for an answer. Staff are friendly and the food and drinks on offer are extensive and really good value. It’s a shame the showers are upstairs at the far side of the play area and on the last couple of visits once the showers were scaldingly hot and on the other visit only one working. It takes a while for your eyes to adjust to the darkness upstairs as it’s pretty dark. During the day it’s a fairly elderly crowd in general. Have visited for a Cumunion evening and that was busier and younger and better value.

Good experiences, but be careful of abusive regular

I’ve been to this place for the events of a Friday night. There’s always a good crowd of men of all ages from all around the region here. The premises are a bit jaded. Downstairs in the sauna area it’s not tiled and smells damp. The play area upstairs is slightly better. The place doesn’t hire out flip flops, either. You can have great fun here. And whether it’s freshly tiled is secondary. What’s really bad is one guest who is abusive to other guests. He comments on everything, joins in action uninvited, and yesterday got physically violent with one customer who rejected his advances. The staff refused to remove him, it’s seems he’s a regular and is a friend of the manager. He needs to be barred. Be careful guys!

One of the best

I have visit many gay saunas in the UK and this has to be one of the best. First visit was a naked day - bit weird being handed a "face cloth" sized towel, but it really works. Upstairs has a great range of play spaces - takes a while to adjust to the low level of lighting but well worth it. A good range of refreshments and friendly staff whilst not pushy. Would recommend a visit soon!

Very good, except....

Been here a few times in the last couple of months, usually on Friday nights for the 'special events'. The place is busy, popular and horny as heck regardless of what event it is. Lots of sex, someone for everyone, one on one, threesomes and lots of group stuff going on. But, please, guys if you want to stand around and chat with your mates, do it in the bar area downstairs not in the cruising areas. The management really needs to get a grip on this. It's one thing to have a quick chat with a mate, but another to have full-on conversations which include bitching about other people in the sauna. The management also need to address the issue of allowing drunk people in the establishment. Last night was unnerving seeing one drunk guy pestering guys in the cruising area and becoming abusive when they turned him down. Other than that, it's a great place.

Visit

First time. Was having fun 2 minutes into visiting the sauna. Didn’t get shown around, so had to ask what was where. Went upstairs. Dark rooms. Saw same bloke I had fun with earlier, so I took him into a room. Great fun was had. Back to sauna then upstairs watching porn. Bloke came in for mutual oral. Wished someone had come behind me for a 3/4 some. Decent day.

Sex

First time today. Didn’t get shown round so was unsure of where things were. Within 5 mins of entering the sauna I was having some fun. Spent a short time in the jacuzzi then spoke to a sexy bloke that told me about upstairs. It’s dark and confusing. Felt like I was walking round in circles. Saw the guy I had fun with earlier so we entered a room and had more fun. Watched some videos where 1 guy came in.

Terrible customer service

AVOID TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE - Arrived 2 minutes after the price change and was given zero leniency. Manager didn't want to speak to me when I wanted to make a complaint. Cashier just smirked. I've been a bi-weekly customer for the sauna and masseuse for around 4 years. Take your money elsewhere.

Out of town guy

Been to quite a few saunas in the the past with varying results but this is one of the good ones. A good mix of (friendly) guys leaving lots of options open.......... Plenty of condoms and lube freely available too. I will be back!

Great Sauna

Been a few times now. Great atmosphere, always a nice crowd. Good mix. Great facilities and fantastic jacuzzi - though only on for a limited time every hour. Clean, big and lots if areas to explore. Great glory holes and dark cruising areas, plenty of places to hookup if that's east you want to do. Great bar - even sells cool toys for a bit of after fun. There's smoking area another good are to meet and chat to guys - even provide dressing gowns! Lots of condoms and lube available and the staff could not be friendlier. A great place to unwind, have fun and let off steam with similar minded guys.

JACUZZI

The jacuzzi is set up to 15min on 15 off I believe after someone passed out after spending too long in it. YES it was me.

I am a TV and I’ve never felt more comfortable at any venue as the Boileroom. I understand that I am limited to the days I can attend as it wouldn’t be fair for me to be dressed on the Naked days. However, I’m very pleased to have been accepted on the Towel days. It’s brilliant, as are the staff and the clients. Five stars all round. Whilever I'm allowed, I will support this venue.

Great place

This sauna is exactly what you need in Sheffield, clean, nice atmosphere, a few too many naked days (but maybe is just me as I am not a fan of that ) other than that I love it!

Been coming here for around 18 months the place has been transformed, new in-floor jacuzzi, cruisy sauna and hot/dark steam, power showers & very friendly staff. In fact there is a very nice atmosphere all round plenty of places nearby to park. Free hot drinks, great massage good food/extras. Anymore well see their webpage....

Not bin 2 this type of sauna b4. Was so happy I went. The staff showed me around & were great. The atmosphere was great & patrons were very friendly as I was nervous being a newby. I could do as much or as I little as I wanted. I had "a lot of fun". Definitely would recommend. I will b going as often I can!

First Visit

Saturday "naked day". Friendly helpful staff, hot tub, showers and sauna new, great lighting effects. A busy afternoon but everyone friendly and helpful as venue has a confusing layout with some dimly lit areas! Sauna has two parts, fairly light and fairly dark - a great idea. Everyone seems to follow the house rules on etiquette. One guy wanted to play and gently touched my hand - I responded and intimate play was on! No hassle, no pressure. Great fun. Can't wait to go again!

Safer than cruising

Confusing reception & refreshments policy: for food, some tab, others on order? Checked in, cruising area up stairs, at the top of the stairs you turn either left or right, and cruise in a square area. In other words, walk around a set of 'cruising' areas - in a square. Been 3 times, 1 to see what it was like 2nd n 3rd to see if it was better. Answer - no, would I go again? Think not!

Strange Pricing Policy

£1, £5, £8, £10, £14 The pricing policy at this sauna is ridiculous. It should be one flat rate of £10 at any time. It is a small gay sauna, with limited facilities and limited numbers of patrons, so anymore than a tenner is a complete rip off. The so called "party" nights are now no different to any other times here, you can wear what you want and do what you want, so how this differs from other times is beyond me, because patrons are encouraged to wear what they want and do what they want at all other times. Do us all a favour Mr Owner, reduce your prices and stop pretending party nights are any different to any other opening hours here!

First time

Visited for first time last week and loved it, though I never got showed around even though I said it was my first time so felt uneasy for a while. Never been to anything like this but it was not long before I was being paid attention to, even though I am 63. Plenty of lube and condoms about too so safe sex is not a problem. Sauna OK and Jacuzzi alright but small. A nice lounge to relax in and felt really comfortable on the Saturday 'naked day', spending over 4 hours there. Get there early for a better deal. Will definitely be going back when I can 'slip away' for half a day.

Great Venue

Been several times on different days now. It keeps getting better. Always get a friendly welcome. Good range of ages and body types. Good to get there when it opens and things are fresh. Naked days on Tuesdays and Saturdays are fun, especially watching the newbies trying to cover themselves with a hand towel! Glory holes OK, rooms for privacy (except for the special cruising events). What's not to like?

Padlocked Open!

First time tonight at cumunion, Sheffield, loads of guys there, the younger seem to leave it while later to attend. I used to visit when it was the Bronx, which was ok I guess, but now lots lots better, and seems to be work still ongoing. All in all a good night, however both my friend that I took and myself DO NOT like the idea of there been nowhere private AT ALL. This is NOT posted on the web site, all cubicle doors are padlocked open. I for one do not like the idea of lots of guys watching. I'm no spring chicken at 53yrs old, but some of these guys made me feel young. Sorry but a proper turn off to me, wont be attending again on these nights, just not my cup of tea, and speaking to others there its not theirs either. A lot of guys like PRIVACY when been intimate. Ok little rant over. Out of 10 I would give it a 7.5. All in all it was a interesting night but my advice to anyone is don't even bother to go until around 10pm and understand that work is still in progress. Best of luck keep up the good work ;)

I have been several times since new ownership. Much improved, very friendly people at the reception, fun times on naked days (Saturday, Tuesday) party night on the first Friday of the month is very interesting ! Just one comment , it's not very warm in any room, even the sauna is rather cool. Like the place though .

Mr m

Been wanting to go to this sauna but the "cannot wear towels" rule and the "wear clothes only" rule on Thursday night has kept me well away. If I go to a sauna I want to wear what I want - ie a towel. These silly rules has put so many ppl off going to this place. I know this because they all go to Dewsbury...change it fellas ur losing custom.

Great for gay guys in Sheffield

I have to say this is great sauna for gay and bisexual men ... I used to visit this place when it was the Bronx when it was run by Alan and Simon until August 2015 ... There's now some great improvements especially in the lounge and coffee area near the reception....There's still some of the old facilities left over from the Bronx but they are making considerable improvements with the refurbishments ... they are currently working on the new jacuzzi which will be a whole lot better ... It should be completed in the next month or so ... very friendly staff and a nice mixture of guys of all ages now coming into use the sauna and wanting to be adventurous .... I always leave there with a smile on my face knowing I've had a great gay time !!

Under Renovation - But still fun

First time visitor. The place is under renovation and under new management. I'm told its owned by the same people as the Boiler room in Brighton and will become the same high standard as there. At present, it's pretty run-down in the old areas but will ultimately be a great venue once completed. A decent number of guys there, had some fun and would return again next time I'm in town. Great friendly staff too.
