Comments from Utopians:

"Visited Hercules Club late afternoon on a Fri. Reasonably crowded, clientele is more 30+ than 20+. This age group is friendlier, and not pretentious." -- yinghuantang, Oct 19, 2009

Keybox 790 North Bridge Rd (at the southwest corner intersection with Jln Klapa), Utopia Map, 6299-4121, email. The entrance is right at the corner on North Bridge rd. Be careful not to mistake the door with the "Spa" sign right next to it as the entrance (this goes to a 2/F straight spa, not to Keybox). Gay sauna located at the quieter end of North Bridge Rd, a short walk from Bugis and Little India or the Lavendar MRT Station. This secluded and quiet sanctuary for relaxation is attracting a regional crowd (Chinese, Pinoys, Malay, Thai, Indonesian, etc.) as well as locals and international visitors of all ages. Facilities include TV lounge with Net stations, hot tub, steam room, gym, designated smoking room, private cabins and dark areas. Check their website for theme nights. Utopia Member Discount

"I visited Keybox for the first time the other day, and I was well impressed. It was a weekday, but the place was busy, with many attractive guys. I think they have done a good job and offer lots of fun in this rather small place." -- steven_g, Jul 22, 2010

"The Thu crowd is very much a chub and chaser day. Most seem to come early in the afternoon and then stay on till the evenings." -- genewilly, Jan 13, 2010

"Keybox staff is very friendly. It is also the cleanest sauna I have ever seen. Plenty of guys." -- nihongo69, Oct 19, 2009

Comments from Utopians:

"Shogun's Chub and Chaser night on Fri is still very happening. With the new place in Pagoda St, it has some new facilities like a sauna and a nice open type garden setting for showering. It's two floors and pretty big. Expect the maze to be a little confusing. Now it's nearer to places to dine and very near an MRT station." -- genewilly, Aug 22, 2010

"Went to Y Club recently and it is hardly a sauna in any sense anymore. It has started subletting to foreign workers crammed into hidden rooms, as the area for the so-called sauna shrinks and shrinks. The facilities are also basically non-existant or broken beyond repair. Of course they will still collect your S$7 for 'touring' their subletting tenement." -- Ken558, May 14, 2010
