Last Tuesday and Saturday, I went to this sauna. It was very crowded - many Malaysian andChinese guys. I think there's a naked night monthly. The staff were very friendly and helpfully. I really enjoyed. Before I left, the counter staff told me there will be a surprise in coming November. The 2nd floor is very cool now, better than before.

Queen Resort

Yes, Queen Sauna might not be up to the same standard as ANIKi or Babylon - but it is where you will find a crowd in the evening. In my books, that's what counts.

bad gym spa

I didn't want to go to the second time once I went there because it was very simple and unsafe.

colloquial At its best

What can I say.. when in Rome! Do t expect the twinks or beefcakes you see in the cosmo cities here. What you get are the rugged, rustic men that are rough around the edges and sexy as hell. They may not have the best etiquette when they are coming on to you, but that’s what makes it all so much more fun isn’t it? Go there to enjoy the locals.. it’ll be fun! PS: this ain’t written by some screaming queen. I’m as masculine as they get and I love this place!

No crowd even old crowd are missing

So it's Saturday 7pm, and there’s barely 10 people over there, 80% Malay + Indian. Where did everybody else go? Is there any other place?

Expensive

I was there on 24/6/2018 Sunday 3pm. Location is very easy to find. Paid rm20 for membership fee which doesn’t make any sense. Locker is very small, can’t fit a backpack. No condoms. Shower room looks filthy. There’s a 10ft x 10ft pool and nobody uses it, perhaps the water isn’t clean. There’s a simple set of fitness equipment but not accessible, glass door is locked. Perhaps it’s to fulfil ‘Gym‘ status for approval of operation licence. There are dark rooms every corner you turn without fan or ventilation. Imagine a bad body odour person in it who stinks up the entire place. Go somewhere else. I'd rather pay for MB

Adam's Apple Male Massage - Closed

Nice massage, clean room and shower, not too expensive, unique relaxing music (different with the other spas). I only spent 230K IDR including tip. I will come back.

I went to this sauna one day...and I couldn't find this place,I been walking around the building opposite zen zeng hotel about 1 hours,has no clues..its address says jln tungku abdul razak susur 1/1 opposite zen zeng hotel,I event asked few people in that area to reconfirmed if I was in the right area. I been to the maze and Vgym all easy place to find. I come here to check out this place. Can the owner specify the real address for the newbies or visitor from others city can find this place easy?

Good hotel but disgraceful female receptionists ruin our visit

Me and my Asian friends visiting Hanoi for the last few weeks. Our hotel was ART BOUTIQUE HOTEL HANOI. Everything was smooth until we met the receptionist. She pretends to be nice to me but when I passed I looked at how she reacts to my friends and she gives them the look like she is above their level. What a lost cause. She makes several comments like look at those homos with her accommodation staff. When I confronted her she tries to push me out of the way. She is such a disgrace for the Art Boutique hotel.

Contact details INVALID

I have'nt been to this sauna before. Intending to give the sauana management a phone call, tried calling a few times however there was no response and realised the details are not updated. I read the reviews upon first visit an entry fee of RM40. With such services, charging RM40 ar first visiting would be unreasonable pricing. Please check and update the necessary details for customer's convenient. Thanks.

Ridiculous

I think it is the most expensive spa in Hong Kong. The quality is below average but the price is on the top.

A small place

This place is located among a row of shophouses off Jalan Tun Abdul Razak, near to Danga City Mall. First visit is RM40. If joined as a member, subsequent visits will be RM12 to RM22, depending on day of visit (cheapest on Tuesday, most expensive on public holidays). A big towel, a small towel and a locker key is given. Shoes and belongings are stored in the locker. The lower floor has a bath, shower area, toilet, steam room and sauna room. Apparently the water in the bath isn't clean, so didn't soak myself in it. Sauna and steam room temperature is high. The upper floor has a gym, a big dark room, several small dark rooms. There was no maze. The gym has several equipment, sufficient for a workout. The corridors have several old sofas. No condom, lube or tissue papers are provided anywhere. On a Saturday evening, the place was quiet, hardly 15 persons were there. Many were middle age men, a few older ones and very few below 30. A staff was seen cleaning and tidying up the place frequently, and is quite friendly. Nothing much interesting there at all, but if you wish to have a workout in the gym, and then sweat yourself out in the steam and sauna room, this place is passable. Will try visiting again on a Sunday and on their members day (Tuesday), to see if the crowd is any different.
