What an interesting experience. There are no sandals and basically hand towels. The lighting was also sans typical of a mens sauna, aka far too bright. There's an element of anonymity expexted, and IDM does not have that. Unfortunately, it's not a positive one. The outward dislike of someone who doesn't fit the French physique was apparent. We left within the hour.

Good sauna, with good facilities (if a bit tatty in parts) and an excellent gym (it is better than my membership private gym!), however; weird clientele.Lots of very, very, 'average' guys who are rude and judgemental and all chasing after a few with nothing going on. As other reviewer said: eye rolls, tuts, comments.I'm vaguely beary (muscle cub) and was not welcome here. Ironic as the patrons here are not magazine models either. I am not judgemental of others and prefer mature bears myself, however it's weird to be mocked for having a (small) belly and hair, by saggy / leathery / gaunt 60+ and bang-average skinny (but not 'beautiful') 30-something guys.I did meet someone nice, but did not enjoy the general atmosphere here. I find this with many gay Paris venues though.

There's nothing to clean the mattress expect our towel. And you can only wait the infrequent staff cleaning. A lot of place is too bright. You need to ask for water but bar is not very friendly about serving you water

This place use to be amazing. Very much client oriented. Fun events, free tea and cakes, great staff.I saw the owner the other day, coming back from his fancy holidays, orange tan like an old Orangutan, gross!!He has just decided to get rid of the staff, cancel the events in order to make more money I guess. Good luck with that! My money is not going in your pocket anymore.I then decide to go the pride event at Sun City. Good DJ. An actual dance floor, great space, fun crowd.Bye bye IDM

This place worths the five stars. Among the best I've visited allover Europe with varied clientele, good hygiene n cleanliness for the amount of people there. I went on a Tuesday and tried the birthday offer. I had a great birthday and left more than happy and filled in all ways 🙂 I loved the gym too which is part of the sauna. I guess that if I was living in Paris I would subscribe there for long term.

Please note that I'm reviewing the place not the clientele.Have spent 3 beautiful evenings in this beautiful place in Paris. On the welcome there are very friendly staff. The place has very good accommodation. You have extremely busy steam room that sometimes there is no place to put your something inside. Whirlpool is so good as well. Something like the maze with private rooms is very good and comfortable. For me and my partner the best room was on the top with the comfortable sofas. You have dark rooms, lots of g holes area around. There is a smoking area as well but the crowd is so huge that sometimes there is no free space in. But that is not a problem. For us the problem is that on the whole accommodation there is no paper towels. We left the mess and feel so uncomfortable that we have to left living our proteins somewhere on the floor or any other equipment. Lots of free condoms and lube is delivered from dispensers. There is a lack of bins to put the used condoms. Everyone are adopted showering area to put the rubber off and sore somewhere around. Overall all the staff is very helpful and friendly specially guy with awesome glamour style outfit that for us represents the Paris style character. We sent him huge kiss over the reception on way to our hotel. That warm kisses we are sending directly from Scotland with love. In our opinion you deserved for 5+ star but unfortunately after visiting the saunas across the Europe we decide to taking off one star regardless the missing statutory things. Wishing you all the best and we will definitely check your upgrades next time.

Level (-1) sauna, pool and steam room, level (0) locker rooms, bar and gym, level (1) cabins and play areas, there are also two places above level 1 with big screen and toilets. A Finnish sauna is just a small room without being a sauna - the temperature rarely reaches 50 degrees because there is always crows going in and out. The warm-up is also not enough. The pool is relatively large. It has bubbles on one side. The level of chlorine is ok. The steam bath has a good temperature and enough steam. There are showers next to it. Play area ok.

Hello! I’m Brazilian and I don’t speak English or French. I went to visit the IDM sauna and was positively surprised because the place is extremely large and welcoming. The guy at the reception received me well and made an effort to explain how it works, and I understood it well; I didn’t encounter any difficulty at the location.Positive points: the place is extremely large, with a large number of people, all beautiful, of various ages and ethnicities, thus catering to all audiences. They provide condoms and lubricant gel. I found the environment clean and had nothing to complain about. I liked the lights in the place, it’s not 100% dark nor too bright, it’s just right.Negative point: I would say it would be constructive criticism - as it was my first time, I didn’t know where to go down and I thought there was a lack of warning or protection for people to go down. I didn’t have any problems, but it’s just an observation; they could signal where there are stairs and avoid the worst.What I would like to read in the comments before going to IDM: if it’s your first time in a sauna in Paris and you don’t know which one to choose? Go to IDM, you’ll enjoy it a lot.Golden tip: arrive at 5:30 PM and enjoy until 8:10 PM, with a huge crowd at the location.

Good for meeting people and chatting as well. For people under 30 recommend going on Saturday afternoon. The day with event can get very crowded and out of place soon so better come in advance. Equipment is generally good and the rest is how lucky you are. The vibe can get a but hostile to extremely friendly and respectful depending on the person

This sauna isnt bad.Personally I prefer Sun City for the layout and the hammam which is much more spacious, also Sun City has two warmer intimate jucuzzis...

Visited for the first time in early December. It was a naked day! No problems with that AT ALL! Everything was very clean and everyone friendly. A good mixture of ages - especially in my age range - mid 50's. The Hammam was nearly full most of the time, with lots of 'action'. I enjoyed it so much that I was planning to visit the next day, but I had my wallet stolen on the Metro on my way home. Be warned! In all, a great afternoon at the IDM! 👍 Will be back, for sure!

I enjoyed myself very much during my visit, much more activity going on than I expected for Thursday evening. There were around 100 guys.Lots of different opportunities for me to enjoy myself. As far as the other commenters issues with condoms on the floor; yes there were some; but the staff were doing an okay job of keeping the public areas clean.I strongly recommend you bring your own sandals or rent a pair for 2€.The only thing I didn’t like was no shower spaces anywhere other than in the back behind the jacuzzi.

Some reviews say its dirty and bug ridden. I didn’t see that in my first visit. Lots of play areas. Didn’t notice any smells. Lots of cute Parisian boys /many hot Parisian men. Had a very good time on both visits. Will come back the next time. I am in town.

I can't seriously understand why there are so many bad reviews on this sauna. Okay, it used to be weird to come here, it was really empty most of the time and I could tell why since it looked dirtier than now and the staff was not so nice. But I've started coming here again some weeks ago, only to find out that the staff is much nicer, everything is cleaner and has been renovated, and there are more guys of all types hanging around, the vibe is even one of the best I've ever seen in the gay scene. I assume the bad reviews are from those who were frustrated for coming and not being able to have sex with anyone... My friends, calm down and be respectful, you can also make this sauna a wonderful place to share chats and fun.
