About
The Club Houston? It's pretty much an institution in Houston's gay scene. Think of it as a cool spot where history meets modern vibes. Back in the day, it was more than just a club; it was like a beacon during the AIDS crisis, dishing out free condoms and vital info. Fast forward to now, and it's had a major facelift – we're talking swanky saunas, a bigger gym, and that pool area, oh boy, it's a hit for nude sunbathing (if that's your thing).
It's a safe zone from the usual booze and drugs scene, offering a chill place for those still finding their feet in the community. Plus, it's still big on health, continuing with the HIV education and testing.
So, if you're in Houston and looking for a slice of gay history with a modern twist (and maybe a dip in the pool), The Club Houston's got you covered.

The staff are quite unprofessional. Unwilling to answer any questions or assist in any way. This is my very first and last time in this place. Some areas smell funky.Robert F.

Super fun! Nice pool! I went at a slow time but super big and really clean! Would recommend if you're looking for spontaneous fun!Clay L.

I enjoy my visits here. Every has been nice each time I come. I think the negative reviews are more around people not getting their way and not wanting to adhere to the guidelines set in place. I wish they would bring back half priced rooms on Thursday though.Jon-Michael Batlle

@Jerry Stanley - I, too, have had a similar experience. However, mine was a mistaken identity. I had never been here before and was told I had already been on the same day. I tried to explain that I had never been there, but he was not about to hear it—pathetic business.John Zeegler

Nice remodel. Clean facility. Swift checkin on a Fri night. However, an old white bald guy wearing a shirt that said CREW, was a total d ick to my friend and I ruined the experience and said we were having "too much fun next to the water." He has no communication skills what so ever and takes his $10 an hr job easy too serious. We won't be back.Real_ Cade

On their busiest night they fail the Clients. They cannot process people fast enough and the line backs up to out the door. Y’all need to hire more people during your peak hours… seriously!! I left I can find more fun on sniffies or grinder or FET life parties . Your not the only game in town but you tend to think so with your lousy customer service..Angel Moreno

I am a 33 year old black man and up until yesterday I have never felt so discriminated against in my life. I do not live in Houston but I do visit 2-3 times a year and during my stays I always go to Club Houston because we do not have bathhouses where I live or anything close to it really. I arrived at Club Houston on 09/25/23 around 4:15pm. Walked inside and greeted the crew member at the register. He looked at me and said, “you were already here today”.For context, I have never seen this man a day in my life at any visit I’ve made to Club Houston. He looked to be possibly Indian. I’ve only ever interacted with the 2 or 3 Caucasian crew members who are usually working at night and another gentleman who looks to be Spanish.I said, “yes kind of but….”. I didn’t finish my sentence, he cut me off and said “then you cannot come in” then proceeded to put my id back on the counter and looked me up and down. I said, “but sir this was yesterday into today, not like a couple of hours ago”. (I went to the bathhouse the night before and left around 2am so yes technically the same day) He responds, “it doesn’t matter you’re not coming in, try tomorrow”, looked me up and down again and walked off. I said sir I do not live here and will be flying out tonight. He said oh well and turned to help someone else. I stood in the lobby and looked around to see if there was a policy posted, there wasn’t. I asked the crew member if I could speak with someone else because I felt that he was being very rude to me. He said, “it’s the policy, there’s no one else for you to speak to” and again turned his back to me.I stepped away from the counter and backed up closer to the door as I waited for another associate to appear as usually I see two. I also went to Club Houston website to look for a list of policies but again, nothing. More people come in, and he assisted them. I asked him where could I see a copy of this policy he is referring to. He didn’t respond, instead picked up the walkie talkie and started saying “4242” to someone and cut his eyes at me. At this point I decided to leave because I didn’t know what would happen next and again, this man had been so rude to me up until this point. I said to him, “I’m going to leave now, but I would like the owners name”. This man looked at me and said “you don’t need anything now GET OUT”. My mouth literally dropped. I never changed my tone, never approached this man rudely, and now he’s yelling at me. I turned to walk out and said “this is discrimination” and he replied “nobody is discriminating against you, you are being dramatic, now get out”. I walked out the door and walked to the corner of street on the outside of the fence for club Houston and broke down. I have never been treated so nasty in my entire life.I’m not writing this review because I want a policy to be changed if it actually exist. I’m writing this because I am truly disgusted with the experience I had and nobody should be treated like that. I have been to club Houston numerous times in the same day where I’ve maybe left at 2am and came back at 11pm in the same day. Club Houston provides each person with the time their admission expires when paying to get into. I have never been told “this is your one admission for the day”. I’m typing this 24hours and I’m still shocked, honestly. That man talked to me and looked at me as if I was gum under his shoe.Update: 11/19/2023 to this day I have not heard anything back from this establishment even after calling and requesting management information. So I guess the discrimination was intentional and seen as something positive by Club HoustonErik C.

Went this weekend and I walked in and I was greeted by a white man at the desk with glasses on in a beard and he was speaking with a big blackcent and acting like he was a black women. he kept telling black people who came to the desk they wasn’t allowed in if they looked like they had a attitude also a Latino/black man was getting forced out of the club and the cops was there because they called the cops on him. If you’re black you have to be hella nice and give them compliments just to get inside. But when I got inside the club I saw multiple white guys breaking rules and going in rooms they didn’t pay for and the club workers gave them warnings. But they never give warnings to the black people. If they could make this club white only they would. This place needs to be shut down. very racist owners. And when you call the cops all they say is it’s a private business and they can’t do anything about it.Erik Contreras

What a great place. Seriously. When I came in one of the staff thought I was a trans girl, lol. I took it as a compliment. Confirmation that I have reached peak femboy aesthetic. The staff were all nice and understanding. The pool, hot tub, and sauna were all amazing and super clean. The whole place made me feel safe.The private areas for private affairs were all well sized and clean. Great experience overall.Sable Canela

The pool is great; however, they are in dire need of new pool chairs and pool patio needs a major pressure wash. Some of the gym equipment needs a deep clean, and some replacement parts. Hard dance music is always on during day with older men lounging. The front desk staff overall are very nice!Zaykeese Riley

Racist and xenophobic staff at the entrance, refused to accept any other countries national ID apart from United states.Even after matching all the details with a soft copy of passport, they said you should be carrying a physical copy of passport at all times. One of the rudest staff I witnessed in USA.mike smith

Went today and enjoy my time. But as usual the hot tub was not as hot as needed to be. I do hate the loud dance music played all the time. The spa was clean as usual and staff was great.Alex Martinez

Went here tonight for the first time. I was expecting a disgusting run down sticky mess. This couldn’t be further from the truth. It’s super clean. Very nice. Upscale. The staff was wonderful and helpful. Met some nice guys. There are areas for adult activities but it’s not like you feel obligated to do that. You can just relax. The hot tub, showers, pool, steam room are all far cleaner than my gym. It’s a very relaxing place to go. I will be back.Jd M.

Honestly, it's the best looking Club so far that I've been to. (Miami, Ft lauderdale, Orlando, Dallas) Very clean, massive jacuzzi and pool. I got a great VIP room. As the pic shows, I chose the one with the swing. Everyone who works there was very friendly. Will def visit again.Joshua Delrie (Draykeson)

I've been here about 6 times (driving over 4 hours away) and sometimes am dissapointed (and dissatisfied) with the clientele of this establishment. The facilities are wonderful, but the vibe is not there. Also, street parking when the lot is full seems risky, as I noticed LOTS of broken glass around the perimeter. There are tons of homeless and derelict that roam this area; to caution others. Lastly, it would seem as though the Club Houston workers and some long time customers are biased towards non-Hispanic customers. I enjoy Hispanic men, however the "racist styled matchmaking" seems overdone and unnecessary. I would like to give this place another try, but it keeps failing my already low expectations.Tim Whewell

Not sure if the owner sees these online reviews, but this club is well managed, recently remodeled, very spacious, reasonably priced, and kept very clean!That being said, maybe the management should consider offering free locker or low-price locker to youth 18-24, like other many club franchises did. with many colleges along the red line, that would certainly attract other crowds and boost traffic.Since cell phone is not allowed take photos of the facilities, the management should upload a few of photos of the facilities to some of social media sites. (screenshot is from their website, but there are more areas not shown on their website gallery)Their jacuzzi is very large and warm, next to the pool, and has some view over the main shower area.The gym floor and the relaxing sofas are nice but look a bit too spacious and underutilized, maybe can shrink the gym floor and sofa area to add another maze or dark room on the first floor.For a few days visiting the club over the long weekend at different time, the crowds seem to be unpredictable when they would come, some hot guys left during late dinner time, while others come late waiting to check at mid-night.Big thumbs up for crews bleaching the floors, cleaning rooms, and replacing the hot waters of the jacuzzi.Andre M.

I’ve been going here for 5years now and have no complaints! Staff have always been nice. It rare that I have gone and not left there more than satisfied. I generally go during the week between 10am-2pm and always find a nice crowd. I can own imagine how the nite life is! Great place to relax and enjoy man time!
