INSIDE LIMA

Gay Lima: City of Kings--and a few queens

Travelers frequently treat Lima, located on a coast overlooking the Pacific Ocean, as a layover on their way to the Andes or Iquitos, the Peruvian jungle where visitors are greeted with open arms. For gay visitors the incentive to pass it over was even greater: For years Lima was beset by crime, sometimes brutal... More

    NOT Impressed
    Yes, it is probably the largest and most popular of the saunas around Lima. It is hard to understand why. I arrived around 18.00 on a Sunday. The steam room was too full to get in. Same with the sauna, which was not hot enough. I went upstairs. The dark room was too full. Found a guy, but we had to wait 20 minutes to get a cabin. While you're in the cabin, other guys are so impatient that they are knocking on the door; no way to relax and have fun. I had to wait 10 minutes to get a shower, then again to use the toilet, which had no seat. I leaned against the locker to get my pants on, and it almost fell over - it is on wheels. Friendly? Nobody seemed to be happy with how crowded it was, but nobody complained much when a toe got stepped on or a body got bumped into. Clean? Probably it had been cleaned recently, but it is hard to keep a place clean that is over capacity. I'd hate to be there in a fire. Opening the door to leave, I was shocked to see a jail with 10 guys in it. Oh wait, that's the bars in the front entrance. Those guys aren't in jail, they are just waiting to get in. Outside, 20 more in line. Just NINE cabins for a LOT of horny guys. Only a few showers. I have been to Oupen, which had decidedly fewer men when I went. I don't think 240 is better in any way, and is worse in some ways. The only reason I would return is if it was the only place in town. As for the neighborhood, after hearing all the reports, I imagined a poor neighborhood with dangerous looking people hanging around. Instead, it was kind of industrial with NOBODY hanging around when I arrived. Since we are always safer with people on the street, it's kind of dangerous by being empty. Taking a taxi to get there is a good idea, but you will have to walk a block or two to a major street to get one out of there.

    Convenient, needs improvement
    One dray sauna was not at all hot, the other not working at all. One of the steam rooms was not working. The cabin I took had something like sand on the cot. There is a sour smell in the air. No dark room. Despite all this, I did manage to have a good time, and it is convenient to my hotel. Note: one of the other review sites has a map, and this sauna is marked for the wrong location there.

    New Address, now in near Miraflores!
    Ive heard several times about this place, but only have been there once at the other location and had fun, but the neighborhood wasnt the best in the city. Now you can get the same fun in a very safe neighborhood, very close to Via Expresa, a few blocks from Ricardo Palma Station. The new address is Calle Gonzales Prada 419.
