Sauna & Rules Overview
If you're looking to turn up the heat in Chicago, Steamworks is your one-stop shop for a truly unforgettable experience. This 24/7 playground for gay and bi men is a slick combination of wellness, play, and some serious vibes. Whether you're here for a casual workout, a dip in the whirlpool, or something a bit more, shall we say, adventurous, Steamworks has you covered!
Bags? Let's Keep It Light, Honey! In the spirit of keeping things streamlined and steamy, Steamworks has a 5-item bag policy to keep the check-in process smooth and sassy. No oversized bags, backpacks, or luggage here, babe. Stick to the essentials: a change of clothes, some grooming goodies, personal toys, lube (demonstration required—yes, really!), and maybe a smartphone charger. And if you’re feeling a little extra, a small fanny pack or satchel can join the party—just remember, size matters. Safety and discretion are the name of the game.
Rules of the Playground Before diving into the fun, remember: Steamworks is a private club for men who know what they want, and they like to keep things clean, safe, and oh-so-sexy. Bags are searched at the door, and contraband or substances that don’t belong (yes, that includes your selfie stick) will earn you a one-way trip out the door. This is a zero-tolerance zone, and we’re not just talking about bad behavior. Play nice, respect others’ privacy, and follow the rules—and honey, you’ll be golden.
Club Features
Private Rooms decked out with flat-screen TVs (kinky shows included), USB ports, and storage for all your little playtime necessities. Looking for a bit more? Go Xtreme with rooms that come equipped with slings, multiple TVs, and even secret doors to your neighbor’s room. Just imagine the possibilities!
The Wet Area is pure bliss with its multi-man whirlpool, showers, and eucalyptus steam room—because nothing says “relaxation” like getting steamy with a room full of strangers.
Six Public Play Areas with everything from private booths and slings to benches and the infamous Sexagon glory hole booths. Yes, you heard that right—Sexagon. You're welcome.
The Gym is a third-floor wonderland packed with cardio machines, free weights, and protein drinks to keep you fueled. Let’s be honest, who doesn’t want to mix a workout with a little post-workout fun?
Live DJs and Hot Tunes to get you in the mood while you’re getting into everything else. With sexy beats and a masculine groove, the music here is a mood of its own.
Need a breather between all that action? Grab a snack from one of the vending areas or head to the Fireplace Lounge, where you can cozy up and catch the latest sports game on a 65” HD TV. Oh, and did we mention the free Wi-Fi and Internet kiosk? Because, yes, even in a place like Steamworks, you can stay connected.
And don’t worry, Steamworks is all about keeping things safe and sexy. Free lubed and non-lubed condoms are everywhere, along with regular HIV/STI testing thanks to their community health partners. They’ve got your back—and front.
