E15 Club

Well, today was the first time I entered a gay sauna since 1983. I arrived at E15 at around 4pm. As it was late afternoon on a Sunday I missed most of the fun but it was an opportunity to have a look around. Tony, the owner was extremely helpful and friendly as were the other staff. I have every intention on returning at a future date. Thanks again guys for making me feel welcome and ultimately relaxed. Ged

1 They only accept cash so the google info is wrong. 2 then they say I can go to the nearby Tesco to get cash back. Also wrong. So, I made it all the way there for nothing (if you read my review carefully, I said your guy told me to get cash!)

I visited this place on a Saturday and paid £19.50. I was given a towel and a locker key. While changing, I noticed the towel was extremely small—I had to hold it with both hands just to keep it on. I went to the front counter and spoke to a tall man (possibly the owner), and politely explained that the towel was too small for me. To my surprise, he rudely replied, “That’s the last towel we have,” even though there were only about a dozen men inside the sauna at the time. I calmly told him I couldn’t wear such a small towel. He then said, “Okay, give it back to me.” I explained that I couldn’t just hand it over as I was using it to cover myself, and requested another towel first so I could exchange it properly. At that point, he became angry and demanded I say, “Please give me another towel.” I was stunned by his behavior—his tone and facial expressions had completely changed. Left with no other option, I said what he asked, and then he handed me a proper, larger towel. Trying to avoid any more conflict, I went back inside and placed the towel in my locker. Inside, the environment was disappointing—only about 10 to 15 older men, with a strong unpleasant smell throughout. The downstairs area was dirty, smelly, and wet. Upstairs, most of the small rooms were closed, and the rest were extremely smelly and uninviting. My honest advice to first-time visitors: do not waste your time or money here. The place is poorly maintained and the staff’s attitude is unacceptable.

Just got back from the Saunabar in Portsea Place. The steam room was not working. Without a quibble they knocked £2 off the Entrance price. Pity such fairness isn’t shown by the E15 Club when facilities are removed or not working properly! March 2019 After having visited this sauna regularly since its opening I have been BANNED for being too outspoken on the management of the place! For some time now (several months in some cases), some of the facilities have not been in full working order. One of the three showers has the shower-head removed so it cannot be used and the remaining showers either scald/freeze you as the tank thermostat is not working properly. The doors to the sauna and steam room have not been closing properly with loss of heat/steam and a drop in temperature/draughts (with the unnecessary side effect of of wasting costly electricity), the infrared sauna has been closed for months and the Jacuzzi is just about at blood heat. In any event, we have already been informed that Jacuzzi it is too expensive to maintain and will be removed in April 2019! Most of these problems (new magnetic door catches/shower head etc.) could be resolved with the outlay of a few pounds - you don't require a plumber to screw a new shower head on! Because of these problems I had resorted to telephoning before I visited to find out exactly what was in working order and then deciding whether to go or not. If the ‘wet area’ is one of the reasons you visit this sauna, I suggest that you do the same and telephone first before making the journey and being disappointed. Perhaps, if a concessionary reduction had been made whilst these facilities were not 'up to scratch' this could have compensated a little, but instead the basic prices have continued to rise. It is still one of the cheaper gay saunas in London, but the majority of the others do have full working facilities and ONE is considerably cheaper. So after so many years as a faithful customer who has voiced his concerns to the management, who obviously do not like CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM, the time has come to sadly say goodbye. September 2018 The E15 is the old-man's Shangri-La. About 70% of the clientele are over 50. This is not to say that younger guys don't go there, but they are usually interested in the ‘mature’ men. It also pays to get there around noon if you are looking for older men. The sauna is on three floors - the reception, changing area and the wet area, which includes a sauna, infrared sauna, steam room and Jacuzzi are all on the ground floor. You can buy non-alcoholic drinks and food at the bar. The basement area has a video room and a dark room. On the top floor there are various cubicles, a further dark room, g.h. room and another video room. No sex is allowed on the ground floor but there is plenty of action in the basement and top floor areas. The place is very clean and the staff are continuously ‘mopping up’. The cubicles are looking a bit ‘dowdy’ on the top floor and a repaint and re-carpeting would be a great improvement. There are some themed days with a ‘Bear's Day’ on the 1st Thursday of the month and on Saturday evenings at 9pm the wet sections are closed and the place becomes a ‘Tranny Club" The busiest days are usually on Tuesdays (Special price day at £11 for all day) and the weekend. There are also special prices the earlier you arrive before noon (apart from Tuesday), but the special low price only apply if you are prepared to leave after five hours. There are also £2 reductions for those holding a Freedom Pass other than on Tuesdays. This sauna has been going for quite a few years now and is well worth a visit if you are looking for the mature.

This venue advertises that there's discounted entry towards the last two hours of their opening times - their 'Happy Hour' However, this is a total scam. When I arrived last week at 6pm they claimed they would close at 7pm, not 8pm as advertised and they were chasing clients to finish up early. Either do the Happy Hour honestly or don't do it at all.

Gay sauna where the clients veer to the older age but there is always plenty of action. Good jaccuzi. Dark rooms that are really dark with plenty of action....

I wouldn't recommend this club.E15 It isn't clean and the receptionist give out one towel,and asks to pay for another?What can I say! Staff are rude and...
