What makes IDM stand out
IDM is centrally located on the Grands Boulevards, right by the metro station of the same name. The wellness area has a Finnish sauna, a large hammam, a jacuzzi and a gym with a view outside, plus a bar and Wi-Fi.
The upper floors belong to cruising: around 40 themed rooms with glory holes, slings, group beds and video lounges. The venue is unabashedly aimed at men looking for sex, and wellness is not the focus here.
Atmosphere and crowd
Local guides describe the crowd as notably mixed and from all age groups, with lots of cruising. The weekly schedule sets clear accents: Naked Nights on Thursday and Friday, and towels optional on Sundays.
A good fit if you …
- are specifically looking for cruising
- like naked nights
- want to combine a free STI test with your sauna visit
Not ideal if you …
- mainly want to relax and sweat
- expect a pool
