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

"It is situated on the opposite side of the road from Key Box. " -- genewilly, Aug 9, 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

Comments from Utopians:

"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

"Keybox is essentially a very nice, relaxing place with juccuzi to chill out. Not much action when I went. It seems like a place for chubs and chasers. It's between Bugis and Lavendar MRT. Quite a walk, so consider a cab." -- HKdude, Oct 13, 2009

CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT

Broad spectrum of adult customers of all ages, races, and a notable lack of posers. Busy even on weekday afternoons! Ask for their "slightly larger" towel if you are a chub. 350+ attend their "go natural" nights on Fri. Mon is Popcorn and Movie Night. Tue is YMCA Night with S$1.70 entry for anyone under 22. Wed, show your tattoo at the door and get a $5. discount. Thu is Short Towel Night. Sat is Underwear Night. Lifetime membership costs S$10. Entry fee is additional.

Comments from Utopians:

"Showed up at 9pm on a weeknight and they advised me to save my money unless I was really "in need" as most everyone heads home by then. Went a few days later in the afternoon and it was really busy. Found plenty of fun -- happy to see the emphasis on safety as free condoms and lube are everywhere. Occasionally some real hotties, otherwise fairly mundane and older types." -- tallguyusa, Jul 20, 2009

"Very innovative and creative theme nights attract a good variation of guys. The facilities are nicely done up with good space to roam and meet new people." -- happy_cat, Jul 2, 2009

"Shogun's Chub and Chaser nite on Fri is still very happening, but it's alternate weeks that the crowd comes - the beginning of the month and middle of the month." -- genewilly, Nov 24, 2009

"If you are in town first the Sun of the month, you might want to attend their 'Full Blast Party' / Nudx Makan. It runs from 10am to 10pm. Nude on all floors and it gets even more interesting when everyone gathers together for 'Nudx Makan' where a free buffet spread is served. You'll never know, some other sausage besides the ones served at the buffet, might just take your fancy." -- happy_cat, Jul 2, 2009
