What makes Cosmos Club stand out
Cosmos Club is on a side street just a few minutes’ walk from Bologna Centrale station and has been here for around four decades. That makes it a good stopover when you’re passing through.
On two air-conditioned floors there is a Finnish sauna, bio sauna, Turkish bath with coloured lighting, whirlpool, relaxation and video rooms, cabins, a darkroom and an American bar. Condoms are free. The club is affiliated with the ENDAS association, and entry is only with a membership card.
Atmosphere and crowd
The crowd is mostly local, mixed in age with many mature guests and bear-friendly. Guests praise the friendly, obliging staff, the spacious changing rooms, the newer Finnish and Turkish rooms and the discreet atmosphere.
A good fit if you …
- are arriving or leaving by train
- like a mature, bear-friendly crowd
- want to combine wellness and cruising
Not ideal if you …
- expect a large, modern sauna complex
- want to come with a companion of any gender, it’s men only
