The highlight of the basement, however, is the centrally located pool with a waterfall and jacuzzi. Right next to it, you can either relax in the 60-degree sauna or recharge your batteries in the dense steam of the small hammam with its light show.
In the large, chic 90-degree sauna with a wide window front, staff members provide different infusions every hour. The heart is in the basement, beneath the dining café with outdoor terrace, the massage rooms, and the yoga room. The Boiler extends over three floors in a Kreuzberg building.
While in many similar establishments, the dry sauna often only serves as a cover for sexual cruising, in the beautifully designed and clean Boiler, both sex and relaxation are guaranteed. Before I moved to Berlin, the sauna was on my agenda every time I visited, because the Boiler - currently the only gay sauna in Berlin - is one of Germany's best.
